View Full Version : Stupidest lines in movies....

I was just wondering what my fellow schmoes think are some of the dumbest lines they have ever heard uttered in a movie. The one that annoys me most is in X-Men, when Storm says 'Do you know what happens to a toad when it gets struck by lightening? The same thing that happens to everything else.' I just think that is the lamest line.
So - thoughts?

"Talk to the hand" - Arnold Schwarzenegger, Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines
That was so funny... back in 1996. Hearing that line now just makes you want to cry at its lameness.
"What are you gonna do, shoot me?" - Various actors, too many various movies
"Liar!" - Jennifer Garner, Daredevil
I can think of many others, but there's just too much to post.

Indeed, you are not alone.
That's my favorite example of corny dialouge. Even Bryan Singer has gone on record saying he hates it.

That line is beyond plain bad.
It's iconic in its awfulness.

Cameron Diaz in Vanilla Sky: "I swallowed your cum!!"
Vanessa Redgrave doing Ophelia has nothing on the trenchant perfection of the script and her astonishingly moving delivery of that line.
Thank you, so much, Cammy D and Cameron (I'm Working With my Li'l Elfin Buddy So My Brain Is In The Shop) Crowe for giving us that special gift.

Dispite it's mass quotability, I've felt that Scarface had a few stinker:
-I always tell the truth. Even when I lie!
-Where'd you get the beauty scar, tough guy, eatin' pussy?

I actually like the idea of Cameron Diaz saying "I swallowed your cum!"
Even though I like Robert Rodriquez movies, except for Spy Kids 3(Stallone sucks!) I hate most of his dialogue. The worst has to be from Once Upon a Time in Mexico where Johnny Depp tells that one guy who's in practically all of RR's movies:
JD: Are you a MexiCAN or a MexiCAN'T?
DUDE: I'm a MexiCAN!
That line bugs me so much.
Alrato!

That X-Men joke IS the worst in cinema history.
A line I hate is from the show Buffy (favorite, don't get me wrong) but the season 1 finale had a line I rolled my eyes at (something that never happened again with Buff).
"I may be dead . . . but I'm still pretty."

Stallone in Rocky 4.

Most of the lines that Charlize Theron had in The Italian Job were stinkers IMO - "I want to see the look on that man's face when we steal his gold." click.

Aw, c'mon: "Mexican or Mexican't" is fuckin great. It was perfect for Jonny Depp's character too.
"Where'd you get the scar tough guy..." from Scarface is great just because he gets to say "Howm I gon' get a scar like this eating pussy, mang."
More:
the line from "Outbreak" when Donald Sutherland finds out Morgan Freeman fixed the bomb, he goes "Hey Billy, what're you dumb or somethin? You just told em' the....oh I see."
In Empire Strikes Back, Luke Skywalker turns around to Yoda and goes "But Han and Leia will DIE IF I DON'T!!" in the worst theatrical acting ever. (That's really bad for a George Lucas movie too.)
Damn, I know I have more. The last good one was in "Alexander", when Rosario Dawson (who looks phenomenal naked) sees Colin Farrell hug Jared Leto and goes: "You love...cheem?" ("him") The whole fucking theater laughed out loud. God that movie sucks.

You back them up good, I agree with you, MexiCAn line is perfect for Johnny, same with the Scarface reply.
and Alexander line, rofl.

How about the whole speech in Independence Day?
President Whitmore - "... 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!"
Oh yeah. That's inspiring.

It always bugs me when someone says "Where's so and so", and someone else says "Dead", and the first person'll say "What do you mean, dead?".
Also, all those "quotable" lines in Scarface always sound really dumb to me.

Haha, my girlfriend and her sister almost got kicked out of the theater because they were laughing so loud at that, almost for the rest of the movie.
The entire movie takes the cake for worst lines. And this is true for most Will Smith movies.

As much as I love the movie the "Silly rabbit, tricks are for kids" line was really stupid in Kill Bill Vol. 1. It seemed like it was just there for the dialogue to be "hip" or something.
and my absolute all time favorite from Troll 2

almost any reference to something being ironic.
note—this is not a criticism solely aimed at American film-makers. there appear to be very few writers of film who have any idea what irony is or means.

In the UK that line is "dick flavoured lollipop" which is both funnier & also a sad indictment of the state of censorship in the US.

The Zion speech from Matrix Reloaded:
"Zion! Hear me! It is true, what many of you have heard. The machines have gathered an army, and as I speak that army is drawing nearer to our home. Tonight let us send a message to that army. Tonight let us shake this cave! Tonight let us tremble these halls of earth, steel, and stone! Let us be heard from red core to black sky. Tonight, let us make them remember. This is Zion! And we are not afraid!"

The absolute worst by far was in the lame-arse teen slasher flick Disturbing Behaviour
"Hey, Teacher... Leave those kids alone!"
It was bad on so many levels, but I can't help thinking the premise of the film was based around this one line of shit dialogue being uttered.
Other pure cheese stinkers:
ARMAGEDDON:
Chick's Son: "Mommy, that salesman's on TV."
BATMAN FOREVER
Robin: Holy rusted metal, Batman.
Batman: What?
Robin: The ground. It's metal and its full of holes. You know. Holey.

every single one-liner in The Running Man....Arnies one liners are usually very cheesy and lame since thats the point but jeeez they were mega crap in The Running Man
Here's some terrible lines, from some terrible films
Bloody Murder
Tobe: It frightens me to think that my diet for the next six weeks will consist primarily of cream spinach and Mrs. Pete's tator-tots.
Whitney: Well I'm sticking with what I know: Ritz crackers and peanut butter. Basic building block of a well rounded eating disorder.
Julie: It just doesn't seem fair... Seventeen years... I was just getting to know her, you know?
Drew: Misery comes in lots of different forms. It's all miserable.
Plan 9 From Outer Space
Jeff Trent: Modern women. They've been like that all down through the ages.
Paula Trent: Now, don't you worry. The saucers are up there. The graveyard is out there. But I'll be locked up safely in there.
Paula Trent: I've never seen you in this mood before.
Jeff Trent: I guess that's because I've never been in this mood before.
Colonel Tom Edwards: You speak of Solaranite. But just what is it?
Eros: Take a can of your gasoline. Say this can of gasoline is the sun. Now, you spread a thin line of it to a ball, representing the earth. Now, the gasoline represents the sunlight, the sun particles. Here we saturate the ball with the gasoline, the sunlight. Then we put a flame to the ball. The flame will speedily travel around the earth, back along the line of gasoline to the can, or the sun itself. It will explode this source and spread to every place that gasoline, our sunlight, touches. Explode the sunlight here, gentlemen, you explode the universe. Explode the sunlight here and a chain reaction will occur direct to the sun itself and to all the planets that sunlight touches, to every planet in the universe. This is why you must be stopped. This is why any means must be used to stop you. In a friendly manner or as (it seems) you want it.
It really takes a special sort of genius to write that last speech, Edward D Wood Jr, I salute you
