What is the worst line of Titanic?

I love Titanic but I just hate it when Jack says...."I'm just a tumbleweed blowin' in the wind"

Its soooo corny....anyone else agree?

Jo, I hated that line too....but I thought the worst line was the "Good Gracious" when Rose saw the necklace. It just didn't seem to fit her character very well....

Everyone:

Play nice, or I'm going to have to play an online version of whack- a-mole! I'd hate to have to start deleting postings.

Now, getting back to the original question, I would say that the worst line of Titanic would have to be..."I'm the king of the world!". That would have to be the WORST!!

Courtney, I certainly can see how you would think the King of the world comment was the worst but I actually like that one. It seemed to fit the moment ya know? Everything in Jack's life was looking great for a change, he was going home, he was with his friends, and he felt like he was flying (literally and figuretively) so he had reason to feel to that way. I tend to think that when James Cameron said it at the oscars it was a bit corny:) I still think when Rose said "Good gracious." should be in the top five worst. Like I said before it really just didn't go with the character.

Jo, I can't remember, when does Jack say that line about being a tumbleweed?

By the way...Jack says that line when he's walking on deck with Rose...before she steals his folder and then looks at his drawings!!!
