Lamest lines
 
Any lines or scenes in movies that make you want to just strangle the writer/actor/director for bringing it into being? I have several.

True Romance (whihc i love otherwise):
(After finding out that Christian just killed Gary Oldman for her)
That's so....Romantic!


Samuel L Jackson's little speech in Deep Blue Sea just before the shark gets him. They waste 5 minutes on a fucking survival story with no end. it wasnt iri=onic, it was retarded.

Starship Troopers:
You're some kind of big, smart bug, arent you?

Ah hell, Anything Casper Van Dein has ever done.....

"Good morning. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in the history of mankind. "Mankind." That word should have new meaning for all of us today. We can't be consumed by our petty differences anymore. We will be united in our common interests. Perhaps it's fate that today is the Fourth of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom... Not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution... but from annihilation. We are fighting for our right to live. To exist. And should we win the day, the Fourth of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day the world declared in one voice: "We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight!" We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!"



that scene makes me cringe and it gets so bad I get stomach cramps.

I loved it the first time i saw it, but i was a lot younger then....

now i find a reason to leave the room.

One of the most impossible scenes to watch ever is Denise Richards' little dance number in Drop Dead Gorgeous. It makes me uncomfortable and embarressed just to see her....

especially the 'BIG LINE' when the bad guy gets it,

'GET OUT OF MY HOUSE'

Most of Arnold's one liners in Predator were pretty gut wrenching:

(throws knife and sticks bad guy to a post) Stick around!
(kicks in door, just before shooting 2 more) Knock, knock!


Bill Paxton's little "I'm the Ultimate Bad-ass!" Speech in Aliens Special edition was pretty painful. It was one of those lines that Deserved to be cut from the original.

Robocop has some stinkers that are so bad they are good:
"Your move, creep!"

"I have the power. I have the connections. I have the muscle to shove so much of this factory up your stupid wop ass, that you'll shit snow for a year"

Or, Robocop kicks the door in to the place, and there are 20-30 guys in there. "Come quietly or there will be, trouble."

I think VH-1 wopuld call those Awesomely bad.

One of the most blatantly stupid lines has got to be from X-men.

Storm: Do you know what happens to a toad when it's struck by lightning?
[Pause]
Storm: The same thing that happens to everything else.

the robocop lines were intentionally cheezy ... that was part of the brilliance of the film :)

I have wanted Haley Barry dead ever since the first time i saw this movie. That definately one o fthe lamest lines ever put on film.


How about the great end line in "I Come in Piece"?
Gigantic Alien dude: I come in peice..

Dolph Lundgren:You go in pieces. (climactic boom)
