we also have to mention one of the worst lines uttered in superhero film history, courtesy of the much maligned Superman Returns
IM STILL SUPERMAAAAAN!!!
I believe the director's intention was something like this:When Spidey saves May and then says "We sure showed him!" they way May reacts is weird, like he offended her by saying it "What do you mean we?!" They tried to play it up like he almost gave away his identity, but he didn't do anything actually.
Where was that?
Not only did they have the crappy line, but they had a guy that looked like 160 pounds of bird **** try to repeat Arnie line of "Get to da choppa!" The makers of AVP:Requiem should be brutally beat down for that entire movie."Couldn't they kill me before breakfast" - Batman Begins.
This never made any sense to me. If he doesn't like the breakfast wouldn't he say "At least I get to miss breakfast" because he doesn't have to eat if he doesn't want to, if he does like the breakfast wouldn't he say "Can't they kill me after breakfast"?
"You ordered the sausage lovers pizza" - AvP: Requiem. This is what we come to after classics like "You are one ugly mother f---er", "Get to da choppa", "Sh-t happens" and "Pussyface"? Oh how two mighty creatures have fallen.
Right when the Superman beatdown begins on New Krypton. After Supes grabs Luthors leg, then as the thug grabs Superman by the face and drags him away he screams, "I'm Still SUPERMAN!"
Its kinda hard to make out since its muffled.
I agree though, the line was kinda corny.
Yeah. Now that I look back, the Spidey movies all had many cringe-worthy lines.Eddie Brock: "I like being bad. It makes me happy"
Fantastic 4:
(Reed leans in to kiss an invisible Sue and misses)
Sue: "That was my nose, silly. These are my lips. (kisses him)
Even disregarding the horrible line, could he really not tell the difference???
(Sue is confronted by Doom while rescuing Reed)
Doom: Let's not fight
Sue: No, LET'S!!!
Combine that with one of the most ridiculous looking attempts at throwing energy ever in any movie and you get a healthy dose of lamesauce. Doom's energy "throwing" wasn't good either. He didn't even lift his hands or aim. That's not neccessarily a line, but jeez, did it ever occur to the film makers to make it look like Sue or Doom actually, you know, were takign an active part in the attack they initiated?
Also, Spidey 2 is LOADED with them:
Peter: "Oh boy, yeah..."
MJ: "Oh boy yeah...what?"
Annoying Announcer Lady: "...the delicious John Jameson." (I could understand if he was being introduced at an MTV special by some giddy blonde who thought he was hot, but it was a high society dinner party and she stated it so matter of factly.)
I understand what the "do you love me/no/kiss me" line was for, but it could have been worded better. Maybe after Pete said no, she could have said "Then just do one more thing for me...kiss me."
Also, when Peter told the Pizza guy there was a disturbance, it sounded plausible, like maybe a police standoff or he had to take a detour or something. When he told MJ there was a disturbance, it just sounded weird.
When Doc Ock says "I got lucky in love" when he tlaks about his wife it just sounds like awkward phrasing. Would have been better if he just said "I was lucky to have met/fallen in love with Rosie..."
(Kids on train return Spidey's mask)
Kid: "We found something."
Again, awkward phrasing. Too hard to just say "We found your mask, Spider-man"?
(At the party when Pete approaches MJ)
Peter: "I'm sorry, there was a disturbance"
MJ: I don't know you!
Would have been better if she said "I don't know you anymore."
(MJ kisses John upside down)
John: "Wow, I'm back on the moon. You up there with me?"
When Spidey saves May and then says "We sure showed him!" they way May reacts is weird, like he offended her by saying it "What do you mean we?!" They tried to play it up like he almost gave away his identity, but he didn't do anything actually.
Lastly< when Pete and Mj are walking together and Pete talks about imagining what MJ's wedding would be like, on a hilltop at sunset and such. She asks who he imagined she'd be marrying and he says she hadn't decided yet. But you know, she's ready for it and stuff. No groom yet, but who needs one? Right? Jeez, so much awkward writing that could've been made better by one or 2 more words.
And how is that bad?![]()
I'll never understand anyone who claims that George Lucas "redeemed" himself with Revenge of the Sith. It was just as bad as the other two movies, if not worse.

You're thinking WAY too much into those. I always got Aunt May's line as "What do you mean we? You did all the work." But that's me.

Over-use of CGI? Check.
Bad writing? Check.
Terrrrrrrible acting from Hayden? Check.
I wouldnt say it's just as bad as the other two, but it isnt much better that's for sure.
Well, the ***** was invisible!!! If she'd said that to me I would've been like, "well soooorrrrry. I guess I couldnt tell, because you were ****ing invisible!!! I didnt realize that I had some sort of sonar to tell me where you are when you pull this **** on me!"
But thats just me.
I'm almost 100% sure that you're wrong on that one... the way she said it leads me to believe that she thinks she did all the work.
