Quotes
-
Batman : Not to be rude, but, uh...
Gold : We know. Chemo must be stopped.
Batman : I'll draw his fire. Hit him with everything you've got.
Iron : Sounds like an ironclad plan.
Tin : [the others rush into battle] Um, maybe a soft metal like me ought to sit this one out.
Batman : Every hero has a part to play.
-
Mercury : [defeating Chemo] Three, two, one, and he's down for the count.
Gold , Platinum , Iron , Tin : [triumphantly] Metal Men!
Batman : Nice work, but we still need to take care of the toxic spill.
Gold : Tin's got that covered.
Tin : [with a dejected sigh, he turns into a cup] Yup, good old Tin. Clean-up guy. That's about all I'm good for.

Doc Magnus : [narrating in a film strip] Hello, I'm Dr. Milton Magnus. Please, call me Doc.
Gold , Platinum , Lead , Tin , Mercury , Iron : [watching] Hi, Doc!
Doc Magnus : Some ten years ago, I opened this very facility dedicated to cutting-edge research in a variety of emerging fields. I recruited a team of young scientists, the best and brightest, all of whom shared my dream of wanting to make the world a better place. But then, tragedy struck.
Lead : This part make Lead sad.
Iron : Not gonna cry and rust again.
Doc Magnus : There was a horrible lab accident. My trusted colleagues, our dreams, all perished. I considered shutting down the lab for good, but that would only compound the tragedy. The dream we shared would live on. Must live on. And so I embarked upon a fresh chapter of experimentation, this time in nano-robotology, and eventually were born the first prototypes of the Metal Men.
Gold , Platinum , Lead , Tin , Mercury , Iron : [cheering] The Metal Men! Yay!
Doc Magnus : Gold, Iron, Lead, Tin, Mercury, and Platinum. The legacy, dreams, and visions of Magnus Laboratories would live on in these new heroes.
Gold : [cheering as the film ends] Play it again, Doc.
Platinum : Just the last part.
Lead : Where we show up.
-
Doc Magnus : Carbon dioxide. Can't breathe.
Carbon Dioxide : That's kind of the idea.
Helium : Some helium ought to give you a lift. But maybe the good doc could use some fresh air. Oxygen.
Oxygen : Well, gee, I don't know. Maybe someone ought to open a window.
Hydrogen : Or better yet, a wall. Compliments of Hydrogen.
-
Batman : Any idea who could've sent these gaseous abductors?
Gold : Don't have a clue. Everyone liked Doc.
Platinum : Maybe I can help. Doc encodes me every night with his backup files.
[she turns into a compact disc]
Platinum : Just slip me into your data port.
Batman : [doing so] Computer, search files of Doc Magnus. Anything related to gas.
-
Helium : Morning, Doc.
Doc Magnus : Who are you?
Helium : What, you don't recognize us, Doc?
Doc Magnus : [gasping as they take a non-corporeal human form] The lab accident. You survived.
Helium : If you call this surviving. In case you didn't notice, we aren't quite ourselves these days.
Hydrogen : So pardon us if we're a little...
[belching]
Hydrogen : ...gassy.
Doc Magnus : What do you want from me?
Helium : Just a little help from our old friend. This gas form we're in is unsustainable.
Hydrogen : We're fading, dissipating.
Oxygen : And soon, poof, we'll be gone with the wind.
Doc Magnus : But, surely, there's a way to reverse the process.
Hydrogen : What we need are bodies, you know. You made the Metal Men. Use those metallurgy skills of yours.
Helium : You owe us. We were trying to turn your dream into a reality, and now we're living a nightmare.
[an alarm sounds]
Helium : Seems we've got an intruder violating our airspace.
Oxygen : Let's go play scarecrow. Don't let us down, Doc. Bodies. We need bodies.
