Plot: Bacchum City is being plagued by the maniacal Jerker who sets in motion a plan to steal all of the pornography in the land. He keeps it locked away in his phallically styled helicopter, waiting for the townsfolk to become consumed in sexual anxiety. But Wendy Wane, a strip club mogul by day, slips into her seductive alter ego Batbabe at night to combat the evils of The Jerker and his clown henchmen. Aided by hopelessly incompetent Commissioner Boredom and sexy lesbian District Attorney Henrietta Bent, Batbabe must summon the courage to continue promoting her standard random ten-minute promiscuities and corner The Jerker before he forces her to permanently retire.

Plot: France, 1640: Cyrano, the charismatic swordsman-poet with the absurd nose, hopelessly loves the beauteous Roxane; she, in turn, confesses to Cyrano her love for the handsome but tongue-tied Christian. The chivalrous Cyrano sets up with Christian an innocent deception, with tragic results. Much cut from the play, but dialogue not rewritten.

Quotes:
[first lines]::Montfleury: Thrice happy he who hides from pomp and power/ In sylvan shade or or solitary bower/ Where balmy zephyrs fan his burning cheeks...::Cyrano de Bergerac: Clown! King of Clowns! Leave the stage at once!
Montfleury: Sir, I will not allow you to insult me in this manner.::Cyrano de Bergerac: Really? In what manner would you prefer?
Cyrano de Bergerac: Very well, let the old fellow come now. He shall find me on my feet sword in hand.::Roxane: Cyrano!::Le Bret: He's delirious.::Cyrano de Bergerac: I can see him now - he grins. He is looking at my nose, that skeleton. You there - who are you? A hundred against one, eh? I know them now, my ancient enemies...::[Cyrano thrusts his sword at the empty air]::Cyrano de Bergerac: Falsehood! There! There! Prejudice! Compromise! Cowardice! What's that? Surrender? No! Never! Never!::[He slashes his sword wildly]::Cyrano de Bergerac: Ah, you too, Vanity? I knew you would overthrow me in the end. No! I fight on! I fight on! I fight on!
[last lines]::Cyrano de Bergerac: All my laurels you have riven away... and my roses; yet in spite of you there is one crown I bear away with me. And tonight, when I enter before God, my salute shall sweep away all the stars from the blue threshold! One thing without stain, unspotted from the world in spite of doom mine own::[he raises his hand high]::Cyrano de Bergerac: and that is... my white plume.
Cyrano de Bergerac: You may go. / Or tell me, why are you staring at my nose?::The Meddler: No!::Cyrano de Bergerac: It disgusts you, then? Does its color appear to you unwholesome? / Or its form obscene?::The Meddler: But I've been careful not to look!::Cyrano de Bergerac: And why not if you please? / Possibly you find it just a trifle large!
Cyrano de Bergerac: [dueling with Valvert] Prince, pray God that is Lord of all, Pardon your soul, for your time has come, Beat, pass! I fling you aslant, asprawl, Then as I end the refrain, thrust home!
Antoine Comte de Guiche: As for you sir, have you read "Don Quixote"?::Cyrano de Bergerac: I have, and found myself the hero.::Antoine Comte de Guiche: Be so good as to read once more the chapter of the windmills...::Cyrano de Bergerac: Chapter thirteen!::Antoine Comte de Guiche: Windmills, remember, if you fight with them... may swing round their huge arms and cast you down into the mire!::Cyrano de Bergerac: Or up, among the stars!
Christian de Neuvillette: [Cyrano is coaching Christian, and Christian is reciting badly what Cyrano has written] "Thus do I love thee."::Cyrano de Bergerac: Idiot! There are a dozen ways to read that line - "*Thus* do I love thee"; "Thus do *I* love thee", "Thus do I love *thee*! *thee*! *thee*!"
Duenna: [Cyrano is trying to talk to Roxanne in private, when her Duenna enters] I have eaten the cakes, Monsieur de Bergerac.::Cyrano de Bergerac: [pushing her out the door] Good. Now go out and enjoy Nature.
Vicomte de Valvert: [to Cyrano] Dolt! Insolent puppy! Jabbernowl!::Cyrano de Bergerac: [bowing, sarcastically] How do you do? And I - Cyrano Savinien Hercule de Bergerac!
