A few weeks back, Violet suggested pick-up lines as a theme for Daily Dialogue:
I have a suggestion for Daily Dialogue! How about pick-up lines? Those are always funny, whether it's because they're terrible or... well... usually because they're terrible.
I think that's a swell idea. Here are a few suggestions from GITs reader B-Scene Films:
"I appreciate this whole seduction thing you've got going on here, but let me give you a tip: I'm a sure thing."
- Julia Roberts to Richard Gere in Pretty Woman
"You came back to this bar to see me tonight, didn't you?"
"What if it wasn't you I came here to see tonight?"
"Well, ya' got lucky."
- Paul Newman and Charlotte Rampling in The Verdict
"Marry me, and I'll never look at another horse."
- Groucho Marx to Margaret Dumont in A Day at the Races
How about you? What are the best - or worst - movie pick-up lines?

Napoleon Dynamite: [referring to Deb's milk] I see you're drinking 1%. Is that 'cause you think you're fat? 'Cause you're not. You could be drinking whole if you wanted to.
From "Real Genius":
Chris: If there's anything else I can do for you - or to you - please let me know.
Susan: Can you hammer a six inch spike through a board with your penis?
Chris: Um, not right now.
Susan (leaving): A girl's gotta have her standards.
