"Nobody puts baby in a corner" or lines that ruin a show! — Page 2

Patronus... i agree with the Benny Collins dialouge... i thought for the longest time that they hooked up after Angels funeral. It was just a poorly written part.



must say worst line that ruins a bad show already "For the first time i feel Wicked."

'Nessa I've got something to confessa' or what ever it if from Wicked. I also cringe whenever I hear Idina sing the last word of 'Wizard and I', it sounds like she is saying 'The Wizard and Lie'.
I do actually like 'Wicked', it is just there are a few awful / cheesy moments.
OH, and "I'll call, I hate the fall" from Rent- urgh! Why must it rhyme?

I think the delivery is what makes it cheesey. It's usually sung, "Nessa, I've got something to confessa..." when being sung, "Nessa, I've got something to confess. A reason..." separating the confess and "a," it might make it less obvious and cheesey.

"I'll call, I hate the fall"

I like this line, but I liked it more when I misheard it and thought it was "I'll call, I hate the phone."

Oy the Carousel line...yuck. I do love the Wicked line about feeling wicked...as well as the Dirty Dancing "baby in the corner line"!

My most cringe-worthy line hasn't been mentioned yet (and is also from RENT):

After La Vie Boheme...the AZT beepers go off.

Roger: You?
Mimi: Me. You?
Roger: Mimi.

UGH. I have to roll my eyes every time I listen to it or watch it. I will not be sad to watch that little bit of recitative leave the movie version.
