- Quotes
Viggo: Once there was just men and nature. Then men came bearing crosses.
Viggo: We used to believe that we were the centre of the universe. That the sun and the stars all revolved around us.
Viggo: And we spent the last 500 years since Copernicus in this slow crawl... to where we are now; to this pinnacle of human achievement.
Viggo: Where we finally bent nature to our will. We split the atom. We broke the fabric of reality. That's how far we've come.
Viggo: Now the lights of our cities stretch further than the stars in the sky.
Viggo: But the more perfect society gets... the more psychotic we become. We evolved through brutality.
Viggo: that's why we had teeth and claws. Self preservation was the highest law.
Viggo: But as time went on... the pack began to provide for us... and we abandoned our violent nature.
Viggo: But it never went away. Laid beside us in our sleep. Waiting. And as it waited... we became slaves to the systems we built.
Viggo: Now it's all falling apart.
Viggo: Soon our cities will be washed away by floods. Buried in sand. Burned to the ground.
Viggo: That's why you found me. Because you're no longer blind to all this.
Viggo: When I was in the bureau... I got shot in the head. I lost my eye. My body deteriorated. And I died for three minutes.
Viggo: But when I came back from the other side, everything was clear to me.
Viggo: It was like I'd been given a gift. As the world fractures...
Viggo: Someone...
Viggo: Someone has to be there to protect innocence.

Refn may be overdoing it with the pace of dialog. I imagine that there are a few people who find the pace too slow, and still yet a few more who are still having to pause streaming or even skip back 10 seconds in order to keep up.
It's entirely possible that Refn's next project will address those problems. His fans will just have to be patient. As far as I can tell, Refn is the only director who is even trying to serve those afflicted with this slow reading disorder.
