Quotes:

[from trailer]::Will: For one hundred and thirty thousand years, our capacity to reason has remained unchanged. The combined intellect of the neuroscientists, mathematicians and engineers pales in comparison to the most basic A.I. Once online, a sentient machine will quickly overcome the limits of biology; in a short time, its analytic power will become greater than the collective intelligence of every person born in the history of the world. Some scientists refer to this as the Singularity. I call it Transcendence.

[from trailer]::Max: Shut it down!::Evelyn: It? That's HIM!

[from trailer]::Evelyn: Where are you going?::Will: Everywhere.

Quotes:

Reese: They're trying to kill me!::Lt. James Gordon: Well, maybe Batman will save you.

Bruce Wayne: Targeting me won't get their money back. I knew the mob wouldn't go down without a fight, but this is different. They crossed the line.::Alfred Pennyworth: You crossed the line first, sir. You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation. And in their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand.::Bruce Wayne: Criminals aren't complicated, Alfred. Just have to figure out what he's after.::Alfred Pennyworth: With respect Master Wayne, perhaps this is a man that *you* don't fully understand, either. A long time ago, I was in Burma. My friends and I were working for the local government. They were trying to buy the loyalty of tribal leaders by bribing them with precious stones. But their caravans were being raided in a forest north of Rangoon by a bandit. So, we went looking for the stones. But in six months, we never met anybody who traded with him. One day, I saw a child playing with a ruby the size of a tangerine. The bandit had been throwing them away.::Bruce Wayne: So why steal them?::Alfred Pennyworth: Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Detective Wuertz: Dent. Jesus. I thought you was dead.::Two-Face: Half.

Harvey Dent: The famous Bruce Wayne. Rachel's told me everything about you.::Bruce Wayne: I certainly hope not.

Gotham National Bank Manager: Think you're pretty smart, huh? The guy that hired youze, he'll just do the same to you. Oh, criminals in this town used to believe in things. Honor. Respect. Look at you! What do you believe in, huh? WHAT DO YOU BELIEVE IN?::[Bozo leans down and sticks a gas grenade in the manager's mouth]::Bozo: I believe whatever doesn't kill you, simply makes you...::[takes off his mask, revealing the Joker]::The Joker: ...stranger.

Mayor: [regarding The Joker] What do we got?::Lt. James Gordon: Nothing. No matches on prints, DNA, dental. Clothing is custom, no labels. Nothing in his pockets but knives and lint. No name, no other alias.

[stumbles out of wrecked truck]::The Joker: [to Batman] Come on, I want you to do it, I want you to do it. Come on, hit me. *Hit me!*

Happy: So why do they call him "The Joker"?::Dopey: I heard he wears make-up.::Happy: Make-up?::Dopey: Yeah, to scare people. You know, war paint.

Harvey Dent: Alfred, right?::Alfred Pennyworth: That's right, sir.::Harvey Dent: Yeah, Rachel talks about you all the time. You've known her, her whole life!::Alfred Pennyworth: Oh, not yet, sir.::Harvey Dent: Heh heh heh. Any psychotic ex-boyfriends I should be aware of?::Alfred Pennyworth: [smiles] Oh, you have no idea.

The Joker: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. We are tonight's entertainment! I only have one question. Where is Harvey Dent?::[nobody responds; The Joker walks around the room pointing with his shotgun at everyone]::The Joker: You know where Harvey is? You know who he is?::[grabs a man's face]::The Joker: You know where I can find Harvey? I need to talk to him about something. Just something, a little.::[turns the man's face away]::The Joker: No...

Kelly O'Brien: It doesn't make any sense. Gilliam Circle is right in the center of town. We'll be surrounded by those things.::Dallas: Wait a second... what are you saying?::Kelly O'Brien: I think the colonel was lying.::Darcy Benson: That's crazy. The government doesn't lie to people.::Kelly O'Brien: The army thinks about containment first. They can't risk this getting any worse.::Morales: Help is a few miles down that road and they're waiting for us. Now, it you won't drive us there, I will.::Dallas: Eddie, if she's right, the only thing down that road are more of those things.::Morales: You're not seriously considering this.::Dallas: I'm considering whatever keeps us alive.::Kelly O'Brien: Which means getting out of this town.::Darcy Benson: There are only two helicopters in town, but one's in the airport.::Dallas: No, it's too far. We'll never make it.::Ricky: The other one's at the hospital.::Morales: The people at the hospital probably used it to get out.::Kelly O'Brien: That's a chance we have to take.::Morales: If you're wrong and the helicopter's gone, we're all dead.::Kelly O'Brien: If I'm right, they're dead if they follow you.

Then, NASA discovered that there is an asteroid roughly the size of Texas heading towards the Earth, and when it does hit the Earth, the planet itself and all of its inhabitants will be obliterated, worse, the asteroid will hit the Earth in 18 days. Unfortunately, NASA's plans to destroy the asteroid are irrelevant. That is when the U.S. military decides to use a nuclear warhead to blow the asteroid to pieces. Then, scientists decide to blow the asteroid with the warhead inside the asteroid itself. The only man to do it, is an oil driller named Harry Stamper and his group of misfit drillers and geologists. As he and his drill team prepare for space excavation, the asteroid is still heading towards the Earth. When the crew are launched into outer space, they are determined to destroy this asteroid.
