My father's a voiceover artist and he wants to add a dynamic script to his demo reel.

Can anyone suggest some intense or energetic lines of dialogue for him? Whether they be spoken dialogue, cutscene dialogue, trailer narration, hell, I don't care. Just make it good and make sure it's at least somewhat memorable.

Well logically you'd want to pick a fairly well known game? Half-Life 2 has some great dialogue...

Just pick one... My favorite is probably "Vhailor: When the injustice is great enough, justice will lend me the strength needed to correct it. None may stand against it. It will shatter every barrier, sunder any shield, tear through any enchantment, and lend its servant the power to pass sentence. Know this: There is nothing on all the Planes that can stay the hand of justice when it is brought against them. It may unmake armies. It may sunder the thrones of gods. Know that for all who betray justice, I am their fate. And fate carries an executioner's axe. Nameless One: I see. Vhailor: No, you do not see. Pray you never will." There's also that one line of the prophet in the Halo 2 release trailer: "There are those who said this day would never come. What are they to say now?"

Thanks for the input guys! It's really helpful. (Anyone have a good narration script, such as a game intro? heck movies even) And as for details, it's not really a project and he's not really playing any character. He just needs a good script for his demo reel. His talent lies in sort of deeper, more contemplative or authoritative narration or voice acting.

Just pick any cliche line. Video games and movies (especially trailers) are full of them. You know, things like:

"People said this day would never come. What do they say now?"
"So, I finally found you. It looks like this will be our final battle"
"The world is going to end unless we do something about it NOW!"

Ah, I see.

How about something like this: "The tide.... is coming."

Something like this?

Narrator: He was a man of peace, living on a quiet farm in North Dakota.
Till one day all hell broke loose.

Male: Tim we need you.

Tim: I'm a man of peace, I'm done killing. I wanna raise a family.

Man: That's just it Tim, They've got your family.

Tim: Noooo!

Narrator: Jack Howitzer is Tim in Exploder. From the heart of America to
the jungles of Cambodia, follow one mans quest for peace.

Tim: Hoochi vet is that you?

Hoochi: Tim I know you come, just like old days we kill everybody.

Male: Tim they've got your wife!

Tim: But I'm not married!

Male: You are now to America.

Narrator: He went in to save his country, but found his family and lost
his friend. (Shot)

Tim: Hoochi!!!!

Hoochi: Tim don't leave me, you tought me baseball Tim, and how to laugh.

Tim: Nooo, he would have been a fine American. I'll cry when I'm done killing!

Narrator: Get your self a body bag, strap your self in, start making friends
the American way! Exploder: Evacuator Part 2. Rated PG may include patriotic
garbage.

*throw down a glass cup* "WHAT IS A MAN??? A miserable little pile of secrets! But enough talk, HAVE AT YOU!" Is that memorable and dynamic enough for you?

how about "Oh this is just wrong... I'm coughing up blood that ain't mine!" - Damon Baird, Gears of War 2, after killing a giant rock worm... from the inside.
