OT - Cheesiest Movie Lines
So the other topic about great movie lines had me thinking about the cheesiest lines ever uttered from a actor/actress' mouth.
These are the ones that made you groan in disdain, with the worse offenders being remembered as potential great lines..
For me, two such lines are:
"You had me at hello." Jerry Maguire
"No one puts Baby in a corner." Dirty Dancing
Others? Come on - bring on the cheese!

I would call these lines awesomely badass though:
Commando: "Let off some steam, Bennett."
Commando: "Please, don't wake my friend. He is dead tired."

predator "if it bleeds, we can kill it"
January 18th, 2010 at 3:01 PM ^
Arnold, kicking open the door and finding several guards in Predator: "Knock, knock." Then he shoots them with the grenade launcher. Classic.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:18 PM ^
how about true lies when the doctor iinjects him with the truth serum and then asks ahnold how he plans on killing him "well first, im gonna break out of these cuffs, then im going to snap your neck and finally im going to kill that guard over there with this scalpel"
January 18th, 2010 at 3:50 PM ^
Yeah, but that movie is MEANT to be corny, though, so I don't think any of it counts.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:56 PM ^
torturer: "anything you'd like to tell me?"
arnold: "yeah, i'm gonna kill you pretty soon."
January 18th, 2010 at 6:29 PM ^
"...BATTERAZIES!"
"Get another one you moron!"
January 18th, 2010 at 3:53 PM ^
from that batman movie where he is mr. freeze.
"ICE TO MEET YOU!"
"COOL IT!"
"I'm afraid my condition has left me cold to your pleas of mercy."
"What killed the dinosaurs? The Ice Age!"
"Tonight, hell freezes over!"
January 18th, 2010 at 2:42 PM ^
"I'm king of the worldddddddddddd!"
and
"I'll never let go, Jack...I'll never let go!"
January 18th, 2010 at 3:00 PM ^
Shit, good call. Why didn't I think of that?
January 18th, 2010 at 3:29 PM ^
She says that while she's literally letting go...
January 18th, 2010 at 2:43 PM ^
at the end, in the statue of liberty:
Cyclops: How do I know it's really you?
Wolverine: You're a dick.
1st time i ever LOLed at the theatre for a non-comedy.
January 18th, 2010 at 5:06 PM ^
That's gold!
January 18th, 2010 at 2:44 PM ^
"I'm a guy with nothing to lose. Fasten your seatbelt."
I cringe every time I see those ads. It looks like someone took "Taken" (which was awesome) and filled it with bad dialogue and cliche one-liners.
January 18th, 2010 at 5:30 PM ^
First time I saw the trailer I said "Is this suppose to be Taken 2010?"
January 18th, 2010 at 5:38 PM ^
I think the retarded brother of Taken (you know, the MSU) is From Paris with Love. Same producers, take an older actor not know for action roles exclusively, make him a bad ass...except this time they picked the wrong actor, shaved his head, didn't make him lose any weight, and makes him talk like he's ghetto-fabulous.
Good call!
January 18th, 2010 at 2:44 PM ^
Anything Chris Tucker says in the 5th Element.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:53 PM ^
No way. Rhuby Rhod is the best!
January 18th, 2010 at 2:44 PM ^
from the movie "Cocktail".
"Most things end badly; that's why they end."
I actually use that quote every now and then.
January 18th, 2010 at 2:50 PM ^
is full of cheesy lines and terrible acting that make it hilarious... but i'll have to go with...
"If brains were birdshit you'd have a clean cage."
January 18th, 2010 at 3:13 PM ^
Hats off to you for any mention of an Andy Sidaris movie. He might not have invented the cheesy movie, but he certainly perfected it.
January 18th, 2010 at 6:32 PM ^
is cheating at this game
January 18th, 2010 at 8:35 PM ^
I was tempted to add some clips to further show just how corny every second of it is
January 18th, 2010 at 2:51 PM ^
I ALREADY WORK AROUND THE CLOCK!!!
January 18th, 2010 at 5:08 PM ^
Took the words out of my mouth
January 18th, 2010 at 2:52 PM ^
Kurt Russell in any of his movies, evah.
January 18th, 2010 at 2:55 PM ^
Son of a bitch must pay.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:41 PM ^
You leave Jack Burton alone!
January 18th, 2010 at 3:18 PM ^
You tell them I'm coming and hell is coming with me! - Tombstone
January 18th, 2010 at 3:45 PM ^
How about one uttered TO Kurt Russell: "Snake Plissken...I thought you were dead!"
January 18th, 2010 at 2:55 PM ^
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
January 18th, 2010 at 5:07 PM ^
Everything the Shat says has a bit of cheese to it. But mmmmmm that cheese.
January 18th, 2010 at 2:56 PM ^
They might be cheesy, but they're definitely not bad lines. I think they might have become cheesy and cliche because they're so good and iconic. "You complete me" was pretty cheesy though. Cruise sucks. A great cheesy line was in Empire Strikes Back:
Leah: "I love you."
Solo: "I know."
In Face/Off, that whole thing with the fingers on the faces (not really a line) and "Hello Adam, I'm Jamie" was pretty corny. One really shitty line was in Fast/Furious 1: "He's like gravity--everyone just gets pulled to him...including you." Not necessarily cheesy though, just stupid.
Don't even think of dissing "Here's looking at you, kid." Humphrey Bogart is the man.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:00 PM ^
Wow, my asshole ex-boyfriend actually answered my "I love you" with "I know!" one time.
I really, really hope it was an un-detected ESB reference.
January 18th, 2010 at 5:11 PM ^
Because I've wanted to say that line all my life. But if it's not referencing the movie, it's a douche move. But then, you label him as "my asshole ex-boyfriend", so, y'know...
January 18th, 2010 at 6:54 PM ^
He probably wasn't referencing the movie. And you should never, ever say that to any girl ever!
January 18th, 2010 at 5:33 PM ^
That Solo line is definitely not cheesy. You know the original dialogue was Leia: I love you, Solo: I love you too. Harrison ford thought that was too cheesy so he improvised to "I know".
January 18th, 2010 at 3:06 PM ^
Last of the Mohicans:
"Stay alive no matter what occurs".
Movie was good but that line kinda gargled donkey balls.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:07 PM ^

You are tearing me apart Lisa!

Life is like a box of chocolates...

You bite your tongue. How dare you criticize Forrest Gump.
"I'm not a smart man... but I know what love is."
January 18th, 2010 at 3:16 PM ^
Anakin: Don't be afraid.
Padme: I'm not afraid to die. I've been dying a little bit each day since you came back into my life.
Anakin: What are you talking about?
Padme: I love you.
Anakin: You love me? I thought we had decided not to fall in love. That we'd be forced to love a lie and that it would destroy our lives.
Padme: I think our lives are about to be destroyed anyway. I truly... deeply... love you and before we die I want you to know.
I'm a big Star Wars fan, but man did Lucas need a screenwriter for the prequels.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:22 PM ^
Oh yeah, another great call. I loved Star Wars and Ep. 3 was pretty good, but the prequels had such awful dialogue.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:22 PM ^
Grew up on Star Wars and as an adult was mildly looking forward to the prequels. The lines and acting quickly extinguished any hope I had of them measuring up to the first three.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:23 PM ^
Padme: ”Hold me, like you did by the lake on Naboo.”
Audience: "Is vomit-laughter an option?"
January 18th, 2010 at 3:42 PM ^
"From my point of view the Jedi are evil!"
-Anakin, Revenge of the Sith. It is the worst line in the entire movie, perhaps the entire Saga.
"For some reason she has lost the will to live"
-Medical bot in Revenge of the Sit, when Padme is dying during childbirth.
I am a huge Star Wars nerd and have all of the lines from the original trilogy memorized. George Lucas lost me with his screenwriting during the prequels. It was like a third grader wrote the dialogue.
January 18th, 2010 at 3:33 PM ^
Lucas is a good "Idea Guy" and executive producer, but is a TERRIBLE screenwriter and director.
Jake Lloyd and Jar-Jar may have been the greatest crimes against cinema...EVER!

"I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth."
January 18th, 2010 at 5:12 PM ^
The sand line. Ugh. Still sends cold shivers down my spine...
