From X-Men
"Do you know what happens to toads when lightning strikes them? The same as everything else."

..... or something like that.
Okay, that's probably too easy. I should refrain from the prequel lines.
How about Kevin Costner in Robin Hood, going "Um... I have a brother?"
EDIT - I'll try to think of more later.

I, too distinctly remember that line and how crappy it was.
There were a bunch of shit lines and nonsensical exchanges in this Godzilla movie I watched today, but I was really tired and can't remember any of them.

Yeah, that was a really bad X-Men line. Was it supposed to be a witty one liner or was it supposed to be a straight up threat or just a straight up line? If it was supposed to be an alleged witty one liner, a better ending for it would have been "Let's find out." not "The same thing that happens to everything else."
Just about every line that comes out of the mouths of Hayden Christensen and Natalie Portman in Episode 2 is bad (with the possible exception of - in response to his busted lightsaber - "Not again. Obi-Wan's gonna kill me.") A good example of a bad Natalie Portman line -
"It must have been difficult having dedicated yourself to the Jedi. Not being able to go to the places that you like or to do the things that you like."
That line makes me want to convulse.
Some of Gimli's dialogue in "Two Towers" is pure crap, like when he's having trouble keeping up with A & L and says "We dwarves are sprinters!" or something stupid like that or when he wreckes the male bonding moment between Aragorn/Legolas by coming in with his dysfunctional armor and says "It's a little tight across the chest!"
A lot of the dialogue in "Terminator 3" was pretty bad. A lot of Edward Furlong's dialogue in T2 got on my nerves, but then again, Edward Furlong in general gets on my nerves.
Pretty much every line in "Pearl Harbor", "Daredevil", "Catwoman", "Van Helsing" and "The Patriot" suck.
Keira Knightley's dull voice over from "The one story you've never heard is the true story that inspired the legend." hyping "King Arthur" also sucks.
I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an obi-wan to go.

Except it comes out like, "Do-n't ...cry, Shopgirl. Do-n't ... cry" as if it were spoken by a robot.
So horrible, so cheesy, so blatently trying to pull at the heartstrings (or rather sledgehammer them). So so so so bad.

You did yourself a great favor avoiding "Revolutions".

I'm drawing a blank when it comes to bad movie lines. I mean I could name dozens in the prequels but that's too easy. So I'll name one from ROTJ. When Han says "Oh but you could tell Luke, is that it?" and then walks away in disgust, it just ruined what otherwise was a very nice scene, he came off as so immature and soap operaish. I defend JEDI, but that line really makes me wince whenever I hear it.

What the hell is wrong with "Good, our first catch of the day."?
For that matter, what the hell is wrong with "Only a master of evil, Darth."?

SPOILER alert!!!!!!!!
Right. At the end, Stupid Detective Guy(not the one that Bates killed obviously, the other one) enters dialogue with Grieving Sister Of Murdered Woman. I believe it goes a little bit...like this!
GSOMW: "Did Bates murder my sister nice mister detective man?"
SDG: "No he didn't."
GSOMW: "Oh thank GOD for that! I was getting so worried! So just where the fuck is she then?"
SDG: "She's dead. Bates killed her."
GSOMW: "But you said he didn't kill her!"
SDG: "Yes, that's right. He didn't murder your sister..but he DID."
GSOMW: "What the fuck?!?!?!?"
SDG: "What I said made absolute sense, my dear. Allow me to explain so a mere woman like you can understand. Y'see, Norman Bates suffered from a very strange delusion. He believed that he was his own mother. He dressed up like his own mother. It was on one of these occasions that he murdered your sister. Therefore Bates didn't murder your sister. His mother did. Q-E-fucking-D."
GSOMW: "So...my sister...is dead then?
SDG: "I'm afraid so."
*SDG looks so horribly smug at this point that you want to punch him in the face*
*GSOMW starts weeping hysterically and attempts suicide*
JUST WHAT THE IN THE NAME OF SWEET LORD FUCK WAS HITCHCOCK THINKING?!?!?!?!?

It was a minor line, and there was nothing wrong with how it was delivery. That line and it's delivery are gold compared to all the shit that spews out of the mouths of the characters in the prequels.
