<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> The corniest line is easily "If you want him, come and claim him!" <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Okay, I'll have to contradict this statement by me: <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> You guys are going to trample me dead when I post this, but I don't think that any of the lines are actually corny. I thought there were maybe 2, 3, maybe 4 lines that the actors didn't deliver well, but not the lines themselves were the problem. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> But only by a little. I did think the whole "if you want him, come and claim him" thing was cheesy, corny, phony, fake....you get the gist, don't you? But I feel insulted at all of the other ones you guys are saying. I mean, some of the others are slightly corny, but certainly not all. If there were that many corny lines, all that the movie forum would be is a bemoaning of PJs works. Some of these lines that you posted make me crack up when I see them (such as the look on Elrond's face) and I think they're slightly corny, but in a bad way. Still, I don't agree with you people. *dodges rotten eggs*
