The Most Overused Line in Cinematic History?

By Dustin Rowles | Posted Under Videos | Comments (29)

First, Harry Hanrahan gave us Get Out of There!, the video, then someone not nearly as cool gave us, “I’d Tell You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You.”

Now, for your viewing pleasure, we give you, “You Look Like Shit: The Megacut.”

Overused? Maybe not so much. Tired? Definitely. We need a replacement, and I'd like to nominate:

"You look like a can of smashed assholes."

Hollywood, get on it.

Ah this makes me want to watch A League of Their Own. Love that movie.

Most overused phrase?
"I'd like that."

Only ever uttered by women, for reasons unknown to anyone. I've NEVER said this & if I did I'd have to punch myself in the face for becoming the Rainbow Killer.

History of the World! Wheeeeee!

Ok, back to viewing.

Bruce willis was very prominent in that. I guess he's the master of looking like shit.

Yowza. Elizabeth Berkley and her greasy porkchop lips...they look like shit.

HA! Bring It On. They made it RHYME.

Better than looking like a bucket of blended buttholes!

How about "I have to go." I swear Meg Ryan says that at the end of every rom-com.

I think the reason Bruce Willis is in it so much is because it's a "thing" in the Die Hard movies. Like people are always telling him he looks like shit.

onewing, I completely agree, you hear "i'd like that" all the time (romcom's being the worst offenders, The worst part is that people hear on film/TV so often they're actually starting to use it in real life

If someone asks "Would you like to go out sometime?" The right answer is "sure, that'd be great", "yes","no" or "fuck off"

hammered shit!

You look like 10 pounds of shit in an 8 pound bag.

There was a lot of Bruce Willis in that video and I don't think it was just Die Hard. If I remember correctly, there was also 12 Monkeys, The 5th Element and Striking Distance.

I love these videos, keep 'em coming!

I know he is the beat down, everyman protagonist, but dear gods, Bruce Willis was in a shit ton of those. I find myself pondering the percentage of movies he has been in that used that line. Anyone?

"You look like a turd."

"You look like a sunburnt scrotum."

"You look like leprosy raped the plague."

"You look like vomit."

"You look like a vaginal blood fart."

I think I need to train myself to stop reading KBalls comments when I'm about 80% through. I'm just to missish for them.

Careful now, Mrs. J, don't make me come over there and get all Hopkinsian on ya, and do you with my eyebrows.

Hee hee!!!

Rykker - I don't know what that means but consider me suitably chastened.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 18, 2010 11:52 AM

, just made me snort snot all over my keyboard.

Mrs. J,


I was just riffing on a comment you made in the Gatsby thread yesterday (the one at 10:16am).

I thought it would be funny.
I guess I need more practice at thinking, though. :(

Posted by: Rykker at November 18, 2010 12:06 PM

I got the reference, but not the joke. I blame myself.

If it helps, I now have that über-creepy movie poster photo of Hopkins stuck in my head. All of them really.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 18, 2010 12:11 PM

Ah. When you said "that last part didn't come out right", I thought you meant that "doing the cast with his eyebrows" came out sounding like a euphemism for [whisper] sex [/whisper].
And then dubbing it the Hopkinsian method to tie it in to the [also from yesterday] mention of counter-acting an Edwardian upbringing...

I've been told I have a habit of making things too complicated...


(thanks for the &hearts!)

1. ♥♥♥

2. I am generally so self-involved in my blithering that I meant that my blurb was not nearly so funny as I would have hoped but I was too lazy to fix it. If it took an interesting turn into [whisper]what ONLY married heterosexuals in the missionary position are sanctioned by God to do[/whisper] that is just a bonus. I am not nearly as clever as I sometimes like to think I am, or as you gave me credit for.

Posted by: Mrs. Julien at November 18, 2010 12:55 PM

Your majesty! You look like....

...ME!!!

We also need the "Fuck Off" Hall of fame.

Posted by: Kahntahmp at November 19, 2010 8:29 AM

Pretty in Pink is the first movie where I heard that line. So my question is - which movie is the originator of that line?
