The onset of stupidity
How do you know we are stupid? It's when we hear lines like these in a movie, especially a movie that's supposed to be a summer blockbuster:I don't like sand, it's coarse and rough and irritating, and gets all over the place... not like you; you're soft and smooth....and we come back to the movies.
-- Hayden Christiansen, as Anakin Skywalker, in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones
Anakin: You are so... beautiful.
Padme: It's only because I'm so in love.
Anakin: No, it's because I'm so in love with you.
Padme: So love has blinded you?
Anakin: [laughs] Well, that's not exactly what I meant.
Padme: But it's probably true.
-- Hayden Christiansen, this time with Natalie Portman as Padme Amidala, in Star Wars Episode II: Revenge of the Sith
