[edit] Alex The Lion

  • My Name is Alex. ix! Like New York Knicks!
  • How! We offer only happiness and good greetings.
  • Apparently, lions don't dance.


[edit] Marty the Zebra

  • That is not Crackalackin!
  • (after Alex told him in the crashing plane that he broke Marty's iPod) WHAT!?! THE HORROR!!! I'LL KILL YOU!!!


[edit] Gloria the Hippo

  • Who's your friend, or is that your butt?
  • Hey, I can live with that.


[edit] Melman the Giraffe

  • (on the crashing plane) I love you Gloria! I always have!.... Like you love the beach... or a good book... or the beach.
  • I've had a brainwave! Instead of going back, we could relax here for a few months!
  • Listen Mototo. You better treat this lady like a queen because you my friend, you found yourself the perfect woman. If I was ever so lucky to find the perfect woman I would give her flowers everyday and not just any flowers, okay? Her favorites are orchids, white, and breakfast in bed... six loaves of wheat toast with butter on both sides, no crust. The way she likes it. I'd be her shoulder to cry on and her best friend and I'd spend everyday trying to think of how to make her laugh. She has the most, most amazing laugh. Well that's what I would do if were you.

[edit] King Julian

  • (hang from the light-fixture) You, in-flight slave... Bring me my nuts on a silver patter.
  • The Gods eat up the sacrifice... Mmm very nice, thank you for that sacrifice... Would you like anymore sacrifice?.. No No I couldn't... ~ Explaining the concept of sacrifice.
  • Yeah I'm A Lady, I'm a Lady! Not Really... Its me, king Julian! Now, which of you is attracted to me?
  • If I, King Julian (that's my name), only had two days to live, I would do all the things I have ever dreamed of doing. I would love to become a professional whistler. I'm pretty amazing at it now, but I wanna get, like, even better. (Whistles) And you know what else I would do? I would invade a neighboring country and impose my own ideology on them, even if they didn't want it!.
  • Oh, who would leave a perfectly good head lying around?
  • Such a happy little head...
  • What is that you're saying, Stevie? Oh! Oh! Oh, huhu! No! *deep breath* Wait wait wait! NO, you didn't say that, how's that even POSSIBLE?! You NAUGHTY little THING!
  • Quick, to the volcano, before we all come to our senses!
  • Oh, suddenly throwing a giraffe into a volcano to make water is crazy?
  • Well, you've got to march right up to this woman, right? You look her right in the eye, you lean forward, right, just a little, just almost all the way, hm, then you let her lean forward just another little bit 'til you're just a lips distance away from each other, hm, and then you just tell her... how much you hate her.
  • (Aboard the plane, watching the television with Maurice in a room) Ha Ha, this is so funny, I like laughing! Its such a nice experience! (Melman enters) Excuse me, this is first class, its nothing personal, it's just that we're better than you
  • (To Maurice when the plane is crashing landing and everyone is screaming) Raise your arms Maurice! It's more fun when you raise your hands like this (in reference to the feeling of weightlessness)
  • (Just before entering the plane on Madagascar) Hey freaks, you will be glad to know that I will be going with you (Alex : Uh!, No thank you) Hmm, yes thank you, it's my plane
  • (as Mort approaches to get on the plane to New York) AAAAH! Mort! He's so annoying! Don't let him on! Stop that thing! He's carrying scissors and hand cream!


[edit] Nana (the old lady)

  • I'm too old to die.
  • Bring it on!
  • Bad kitty.
  • (Looks at Alex the lion for the first time in the film) I know you (in reference to the previous film)
  • We're New Yorkers. When we need food, we build a supermarket. When we need water, we build a dam. when we need shelter, we build a skyscraper!


[edit] Skipper

  • I'm trying! Can't you see these commies have my hands tied!
  • Maternity leave?! You're all males!
  • Reverse. Gas. Music.
  • (to the doll, during the plane dive) My goodness, Doll, you're shaking like a leaf. (turning) Rico! You've had your fun. Pull up!
  • (to Rico as they try to land) Gently now. You just wanna kiss the ground. Just a little peck, a smooch like you're kissing your sister. (plane touches down hard and the wooden wheel breaks off) I said kiss it!


[edit] Private

  • In case of a loss of cabin pressure, place the mask over your face to hide your terrified expression from the other passengers.
  • If there is an emergency, place your head between your knees and kiss your (life vest explodes) goodbye.


[edit] Dialogue

(looking out over the African plain)
Gloria: Where are we?
Melman: San Diego. This time I'm forty percent sure.
Marty: I think its Africa. Our ancestrial crib! It's in our blood, I can feel it!
Alex: No, no. It's more than that. It's like, deja vu, like I've... like I've been here before.
Marty: It's like Roots!
Alex: (dazed) No, no. It's like, deja vu, like I've... like I've been here before.

Julien: What ever happened to the separation of the classes?
Maurice: Don't worry, I'm sure this democracy thing is just a fad.

Gloria: Is this place great, or what?
Alex: I'd go with 'or what.'

Marty (kid): I think (Alex)'s a show off. (Gloria then Melman talk, followed by a time spurt to present ages.)
Marty: I still think he's a show off.

Alex: She has a gun! Let's get out while we can! Pass it on.

(chimpanzees chatter the message all the way up their chain)

Mason: He said, 'Let's have some fun and take out the dam. Basset Hound.'

Alex: Tell them, no! Pull up! They'll kill us! There's got to be another way! Pass it on.

(chimpanzes chatter the message all the way up their chain)

Mason: They said, 'Don't pull up. Kill us. There is no other way. Basset Hound.'



Makunga: Look at it this way. After I defeat you and take your place as alpha lion, you'll have that much more time to spend with your pathetic excuse of a son.
Zuba: Before I kick your butt again, tell me why you want to be alpha lion?
Makunga: I'm better looking, I have better hair, I'm deceitfully smart, and I want everyone to do what I say.

(red bulb on the fuel guage is flashing)

Kowalski: Skipper, look.
Skipper: Analysis
Kowalski: It looks like a small incandescent bulb, designed to indicate something out of the ordinary, like a malfunction.
Skipper: I find it pretty and somewhat hypnotic.
Kowalski: That too, sir.
Skipper: Right. Rico, maunal! (catches the manual and smashes the bulb with it) Problemo solved.
Kowalski: Sir, we may be out of fuel.
Skipper: What makes you think that?
Kowalski: We've lost engine one, (engine sputters out) and engine two is no longer on fire. (engine stops smoking and sputters)
Skipper: Buckle up, boys. Don't look, doll, this might get hairy. (on the intercome) This is your captain speaking. I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we will be landing immediately. (everyone claps) The bad news is, we're crash landing. (plane halts and starts on a dive) When it comes to air travel, we know that you have no choice whatsoever, but thanks again for choosing Air Penguin.



[edit] Trvia

  • This, along with Soul Men, was Bernie Mac's last film performance. Therefore, this film is dedicated to him. The credits include a dedication: "For our friend Bernie Mac. Thanks for all the laughter."
  • Alex's family birth-mark is shaped like the continent of Africa, including the island of Madagascar.
  • The aircraft used in the escape attempt is based on a Lockheed L-10 Electra, similar to one used by Amelia Earhart.
