This according to The SUN. After reading it though I would have to agree. It's from the New J-Lo, Ben Affleck Movie.

In one scene J-Lo, 33, tries to seduce Affleck, 30, by laying on a bed and telling him: �It�s turkey time!�

When he asks: �What?�, she replies: �Come on, gobble, gobble�.

Speaking of dumb lines...I thought Arnie saying "Talk to the hand" in Terminator 3 was pretty damn stupid, but the people in the theater seemed to like it. Actually I guess I could say the same thing for the whole movie.

Lo and Affleck on a nudist beach:

Lo: "Does my bum look big in this?"

Affleck: "Yes"

The worst-delivered line ever, if not inherently godawful in itself, had to be that one from Matrix 2, something along the lines of : 'you can't die...because I love you too damn much'. The sheer lack of emotion and acting was incredible.

The very last line in "The World Is Not Enough" made me hate that friggin movie. I was enjoying it as much as one can a modern Bond film, and they totally killed it.

It was about Christmas coming only once a year; Denise Richard's character was named Christmas. Lame lame lame.

Speaking of bad line in Bond movies, Die Another Day had some awful ones as well. "Read this, bitch!" comes to mind, and had everyone in the theater groaning in agony.

"Go Willie Go! Freeeeee Willy!"

That, in my opinion, is the worst movie line ever.

That line from X-Men so could have been salvaged if they had replaced the "same thing" bit with, "Let's find out..." and an evil grin. Well, maybe the grin would be too much .

Even worse, later in the movie: "I'm back!"

Aside from the lame delivery, he was just repeating himself. I think he must have been making fun of his own character, but it just looked dumb.

Arnie's "hand line" was damn funny. Period.

On the subject, I saw a Mad TV parody of Terminator 3 where a Terminator is sent back to the past to protect Jesus. Friggin' cool!

Funny, maybe. But I guess I missed the announcement that T3 was a comedy/parody of the previous 2 movies.

Sorry, but I thought that line was classic. Almost as good as the one in Tomorrow Never Dies when Bond is in Oxford 'brushing up on his Swedish' and Moneypenny says "You always were a cunning linguist James".

Comedy Gold! No, really, it is!

I can't really pin-point any specific lines from any movies.

Can I just vote for the scripts to the movies "Ghosts of Mars" and "Armageddon" ?

Watching either one of those was like being forced to listed to someone scraping thier finger-nails on a chalk board. Like being tortured by having lemon juice dripped slowly over an open wound for several hours
I believe both movies succeeded in killing some part of my brain that I had previously only abused myself.

Probably more appropriate as another thread though
