"It appears that you're heading directly into the heart of the volcano. On reflection, this was inevitable, really. I mean, you can't just have a Final Boss Battle near a volcano. It would be like having a car chase in which the fruit cart doesn't get knocked over. Or fighting crime in a giant robot and never using Rocket Punch."

"No one ever talks about the volcanoes that don't explode."
Milo Murphy, Milo Murphy's Law

"And then came a sound, distant first, that grew into castrophany so immense that it could be heard far away in space. There were no screams, there was no time. The mountain called Monkey had spoken. There was only fire, and then- nothing."
Dennis Hopper on Fire Coming Out of the Monkey’s Head, Gorillaz

"Mount Vesuvius is exploding! What are the odds?"
Legionnaire, Johnny Bravo, "Quo Doofus"
