Minute Detail - IMO The Worst Line Delivery in the Movie

(1/7) > >>

Nicole:
Okay, so I know we all love to talk about our favourite things about the movie, but lets talk about what we think is the worst line.  For me, there are two and they aren't the lines themselves but the delivery of them that I hate.  However, one has been discussed multiple times and now makes me laugh so hard when I see it that I almost love it at this point.  Of course I am referring to Bobby Soprano (sorry, Twist) and his "I'm gonna be eatin' this food for da next two weeks!".  (Bada bing!)

However, there is one that I really don't like and luckily it's not Jack or Ennis.  It's Aguirre when he comes to tell Jack about his Uncle Harold in the hospital.  He says "Your Ma asked me to come and let you know, so here I am".  When he says "so here I am" and looks off into the distance it seems so over the top that it's almost like he's in a play rather than a movie.  Maybe it's just me, but I cringe every time I see that scene.

And Paul and Mandy - what the hell are you guys still awake for?  I guess I'mI not the only insomniac in this group? :)

Okay, Paul and Mandy were both here a minute ago - guess they both decided to go to sleep!

LOL,  I'm going already, I'm going....

and I LIKE the way Quaid delivers that line!

Let me get my hard hat out before I share this:  I really did not like the way Linda Cardellini as Cassie delivers the line...Ennis, girls don't fall in love with fun!...just a little to OTT for me, I felt a quieter more intense deliver would have been more effective. ::) JMO

j.U.d.E.:

I agree with you on that one Victoria! But then, I don't like the Cassie-character anyway..

I like Bobby when he says his line, maybe more the accent/dialect, than the intonation, but I like it.

It's not this thread's discussion, but I like Alma Jr's lines (when she's 16+ years old) and the Basque (food delivery guy).

Great idea for a thread!

Maybe after I actually sit down and watch the DVD I'll have something to contribute. ...
