Quotes 

• Mongul : Happy birthday, Kryptonian, I give you Oblivion!

  Superman : [His eyes turn red]  Burn!

• Mongul : You should have stayed in whatever happy fantasy the Black Mercy granted you!

  [they fight, Mongul hits Superman through the floor. They land at the base of Statues of Jor-El and Lara] 

  Superman : HAPPY? Do you know what I've LOST? What I've...

  [looks up at the statues of his parents] 

• Mongul : You know for a moment there, I almost believed you were going to kill me. How stupid of you to hesitate like that. Not a mistake I'll make, I can assure you.

• Superman : Do you have any idea what you did to me?

  [continues to fight Mongul. Mongul counter-attacks] 

  Mongul : I fashioned a prison that you couldn't leave without sacrificing your heart's desire. It must have been like tearing off your own arm.

• [Batman notices an open canister at Superman's feet] 

  Batman : So, it was a gift.

  [Examines half of the canister] 

  Batman : Teleported here from some alien culture, some grateful world... or someone wanting you to think they were grateful.

  Mongul : How remarkable.

  [Batman looks around until he sees Mongul holding an unconscious Wonder Woman] 

  Mongul : You animals really are almost intelligent, aren't you? That's exactly what happened.

  Batman : [rises to his feet]  Mongul.

  Mongul : [starts to approach Batman]  You recognize me. I'm flattered. I suppose Superman told you all about our previous encounter.

  Batman : You mean how he humiliated you?

  Mongul : A... jaundiced account.

• Mongul : [holding Wonder Woman up]  What inferior specimens he surrounds himself with. I took her down before she even knew I was there, and I'll take this planet just as easily.

  [Wonder Woman's eyes quickly open and she kicks Mongul, causing him to fall] 

  Wonder Woman : Maybe not as easily as you think.

  [Mongul rubs his jaw and glares at her] 

  Wonder Woman : We inferior specimens call it playing possum.

  [Mongul rises to his feet and he and Wonder Woman get into fighting stances before Batman steps between them] 

  Batman : No.

  Wonder Woman : No?

  Mongul : Clearly, the males on this world are the smart ones.

  [to Wonder Woman; slowly] 

  Mongul : He wants to know about the plant. The Black Mercy is a telepathic species. It reads the heart's desire and feeds the individual a totally convincing simulation of it.

  Batman : So, he's dreaming.

  Mongul : Oh, far deeper than any dream. I wonder where he thinks he is. Sitting on a throne, ruling the universe, all you human garbage fawning at his feet. More honest, don't you think, than this pretense of being a selfless hero?

  [Wonder Woman lunges at him and delivers a one-two combo which makes him stagger but hurts her hands] 

  Mongul : You don't understand. He was the only obstacle in my way. The rest of you are already dead.

• Mongul : I'd advise you to try the plasma disruptor. It's more of a woman's weapon.
