There's one in Return of the King that I didn't notice the first time because that film kicks ARSE. Sam thinks Frodo is dead and is sobbing over the hobbit's supposed corpse. So far the scene is working brilliantly(homosexual subtext be damned!) and the kleenex is flying, but then Sam opens his stupid gob and says "Don't leave me here alone! Don't go where I can't follow!". Gar! Talk about ruining the moment! I know it was in the book but somethings work better on paper than the silver screen.
I didn't think DiCaprios "I'm the king of the world!" line was too bad, until the camera soared upwards majestically and shows him and the italian fella from behind. I swear, it looks like Leo is butt fucking the randy cassanova.
And nope, I was talking about the original Psycho, not the remake. A remake is bad enough, but I heard there was a sequel to the original as well. What the hell could you do in the sequel? This time he thinks he's his sister? This time he thinks he's his dog? Gar!

I rented Heavy Metal last week and when they got to the Hanover Fiste sequence there was this line delivered by Captain Lincoln F. Stern that bugged the hell out of me - "Relax Charlie, I got an angle." I think the line bugged me mostly because of Stern's inability to properly pronounce the word angle. I tried to ignore it though and focus more on the late John Vernon voicing the prosecutor and his droll delivery of Stern's offenses, ending memorably with "...and one parking violation."

"You bet your ass I wish to proceed!"
Theo talking to the computer when it asks him if wishes to proceed in the original Die Hard (1988). It's not so much the line itself but more the way Theo delivers the line. Come to think of it, Theo ruined pretty much all his lines with bad delivery.

"Animals live! It's the natural state of any man to want to live free... in their own country. I belong to this land. Where do you belong, Arthur?"
2004's King Arthur. God what a terrible movie, but wait, there's an even worse one.
"The day I died was the day I started to live."
2004's Catwoman, which defies even the aforementioned King Arthur for crappiness.
"Do you know what those are? Here. They're warrior beads. They're from Indonesia. Centuries ago, you had to be the best fighter in your village to earn them."
That one's from 2005's Elektra which is also worse than the aforementioned King Arthur and about on par with 2005's Catwoman. Actually there are far worse lines, but I'd have to go back and watch the film again to get them, and watching that turkey just once to see the crap factor was enough.
Did anyone submit the "You know what happens to a toad when it gets struck by lightning?" line from X-Men 1?

"When the Grey Hair is dead, Magua will eat his heart. Before he dies, Magua will put his children under the knife, so the Grey Hair will know his seed is wiped out forever."
Magua, 1992's The Last of the Mohicans. Good movie, but a bad line.
