They Ruined It!

Yesterday, I was rendered completely useless by a severe neck and head ache. I stayed home from church and slept. When I wasn't sleeping, I watched movies. (And, because of the pain, I think I was a bit on the grouchy side.)

Anyway, while one of the movies I watched yesterday was really good, the other left a little something to be desired. This fact got me to thinking about movies in general. For example, many of us loved the X-Men comics as kids. Storm was one of my favorite characters because she was so....powerful! Then, the movie comes along and this happens: THE SCENE: Storm finally gets the upper hand during a fight with fellow mutant Toad and she delivers the worst line in action hero history. THE LINE: ''You know what happens when a toad gets struck by lightning? The same thing that happens to everything else.'' Yeah...whatever!! My dog Dixie could've cme up with a better zinger than THAT!

For your enjoyment, here are some other stupid movie lines:

1. "I'm the king of the world!" - JACK DAWSON (Leonardo DiCaprio) with young ROSE DEWITT BUKATER (Kate Winslet) in Titanic (1997)
2. "Nobody puts Baby in the corner." - JOHNNY CASTLE (Patrick Swayze) about FRANCES "BABY" HOUSEMAN (Jennifer Grey) in Dirty Dancing (1987)

6. "I'm just a girl standing in front of a boy asking him to love her." - ANNA SCOTT (Julia Roberts) to WILLIAM THACKER (Hugh Grant) in Notting Hill (1999)
7. "Today we celebrate our Independence Day."- US President THOMAS J. WHITMORE (Bill Pullman) in Independence Day (1996)
