I might have to rent it myself now.
Showgirls has a horrendous screenplay but somehow it's perfection.
"I had to see what all the buzz was about."
As did I. I worked at Blockbuster, so I decided to take it out for a night, though I felt ashamed doing so. My mouth was wide open throughout the running time. I was thoroughly confused.
I think that You Got Served has one of the worst screenplays I've ever come across.
"Back up off my piece, B."
"Quit playin', son."
WHAT?!?! The dancing was hot, though.

I haven't seen this (nor would I ever want to) but the trailer to Dukes of Hazzard should qualify:
"I think something bounced up into my undercarriage"
That doesn't even make sense as a double entendre. And when you fail at double entendres, what point is there to your existence?

alright, just remembered a great one from a classic that's on TCM right now, Cat and the Canary.
Bob Hope, Paulette Goddard and some third actor are in a ship's cabin. They are discussing zombies in Cuba...
1st actor- "You see the zombies all the time, wandering around, no life in them, following orders, not knowing what they are doing..."
Bob Hope - "Oh, like a Democrat"
Ok, I am a die hard Democrat and laugh my ass off every time I hear Bob Hope utter that line. I even saw the movie at the Stanford theater in Palo Alto, CA....and we laughed long and loud at it.
I don't remember who said it, but I literally groaned out loud in the Man From the Iron Mask at this, (imagine it said with a THICK, BAD French accent):
"To love you would be to betray France, not to love you would be to betray my heart."
When I went with my aunt to see the movie Gattaca, we about wet our pants at Halle Barry's line:
"I don't believe in ghosts, [meaningful pause], but they believe in me."
And, I too want to see Gigli just to see how awful it truly is. If any of you want to see a movie that really is so bad it's fall-off-the-couch-laughing funny, get a copy of "The Lady and the Highwayman," with Hugh Grant. Sooooo bad. Sooooo fun.
xxnewgirlxx, you got it! It was Mikey from the Goonies!
EvelynNesbit1906, you must not be a big fan of Mommie Dearest! Damn, those wire hangers!
"EvelynNesbit1906, you must not be a big fan of Mommie Dearest! Damn, those wire hangers!"
A big fan of Mommie Dearest is exactly what I am...
"I am going to make you as happy as a baby Psychlo on a straight diet of kerbango."
-Battlefield: Earth
Ecks: Where did you get all this ordinance?
Sever: Some women collect shoes.
-Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever
Boobies, boobies, boobies. Nothin' but boobies! Who needs em? I do fine without 'em - - - Patty Duke as "Neely O'Hara" in "Valley of the Dolls" [1967]
"I want it, I need it, I love it when a beautiful woman licks between my toes." - - - David Gurian as "Harris Allsworth" in "Beyond the Valley of the Dolls" [1970]
"My two-thousand dollar watch is a fake, and so am I."
-Phone Booth
And I understand that Valley of the Dolls, like Mommie Dearest, is especially funny because it was meant to be a serious film.
My all-time favorite, from "Plan 9 From Outer Space":
"Inspector Clay is dead! Murdered! And one thing's for sure: someone's responsible!"
