These Quotes Go to ElevenThe greatest, funniest, and most iconic movie and TV quotes from your all-time favorite comedies (and a few you probably haven’t seen).
"About Last Night" movie quotes bring the laughs in the romantic comedy that addresses what happens after two adults meet and hook up. A remake of the 1986 film of the same name, which was based on the 1974 David Mamet play, the movie was directed by Steve Pink using a screenplay by Leslye Headland. "About Last Night" opened in theaters on February 14, 2014.
In "About Last Night," Bernie Jackson (Kevin Hart) and Danny Martin (Michael Ealy) are best friends as are Joan Derrickson (Regina Hall) and Debbie Sullivan (Joy Bryant). Bernie and Joan meet one night at the club and immediately hit it off, going home together and quickly becoming a couple. They introduce their best friends Danny and Debbie to one another and those two begin dating as well.
Things get complicated for the four though when Bernie and Joan have a nasty split while Debbie and Danny grow closer together. As the four friends try to cope with the new dynamic, everyone involved reacts to the changes in their own ways.
Danny: "So tell me." Bernie: "Tell you what?" Danny: "About last night" Bernie: "I meet this girl. She gets drunk. I get drunk. We go back to my place. I made her feel like good and evil hung in the balance." … Joan: "So this Bernie's got a pair. It's ladies night. I'm down. I'm talking dirty. I am impressing myself."
After the night when Bernie and Joan meet (and quickly get down to business), both tell their best friends about their experiences. They both had a great time but it might be too soon to tell where the relationship will go.
Danny: What's up, boy?" Bernie: "I'm shaking your hand." Danny: Why?" Bernie: "Debbie, man" Danny: "How do you know this?" Bernie: "They are roommates, your girl and my girl." Danny: "She's not my girl." Bernie: "Did you text her, Danny?" Danny: "I don't have her number." Bernie: "You're gonna get it after all that stuff you did last night. She gonna find you." Danny: "I'm going to be a good friend and pretend like you didn't just say that." Bernie: "I'm going to be a good friend and pretend like I didn't just see you check Facebook for a friend request! What are you, a 13-year-old girl?"
After Bernie and Joan introduce Danny and Debbie, Bernie tries to get Danny to admit that he's smitten with Debbie. While he totally denies it, his actions, like that of a teenage girl, say otherwise.
Bernie: "You need to go find you a nice looking female. Take her back to your place. Turn her out. You know what your problem is? You're too damn good looking." Danny: "What?" Bernie: "Best thing that could happen to your face is an industrial accident."
Bernie explains, or tries his best to, exactly why Danny is single. In an odd portrayal of logic, Bernie suggests that Danny is too good looking and should ugly himself up for better success.
Joan: "Hey, get on top." Bernie: "I'm not getting on top. You gotta get on top." Joan: "I got on top the last time." Bernie: "Rock, paper, scissors, loser get on top." Joan: "Okay" Bernie: "All right, on three… That's a tie so we gotta go from the side."
Bernie and Joan compromise in the bedroom. Neither want to get on top and their rock, paper, scissors match ends in a tie leading them to go at it from the side.
Joan: "Who are you waving those singles at?" Bernie: "Joan!" Joan: "There ain't no magic in that mini-mite."
Following a breakup, Joan is not excited to see Bernie at a costume party, especially since he's dressed as a stripper and a woman is waving singles at him. Clearly there is unfinished drama between Joan and Bernie and it's about to come to blows.
Joan: "He broke up with me!" … Bernie: "She broke up with me!" … Joan: "I hope he gets hit by a car and can only have sex through a series of hand movements."
Following their breakup, both Joan and Bernie hold some bad blood about the situation. Joan however is wishing awful things on Bernie for it.
