Has one of the worst lines of dialogue I've ever heard


This one: "It's over Anakin. I have the high ground."

Probably the most painful and blatant example of a double meaning ever written by an adult. It would actually be improved if Obi-Wan had then yelled "Get it? High ground? I'm not just talking about these rocks."

Then Anakin would shout "SHUT UP, I'm burning! This lava is worse than sand, which I hate! From my perspective, the lava is evil!"

(yes I know he wasn't in the lava until after he tried jumping over Obi-Wan, I just abridged it)

Oh please, the line "NOT EVEN THE YOUNGLINGS SURVIVED" is in the same movie!

Ewan McGregor can say just about any ridiculous line you give him and keep a straight face, as in the entire film "Moulin Rogue", but you could see him struggling with that one.

The worst in my opinion were either "Oh, I don't think so" or "Wait a minute. How did this happen, we're smarter than this."

I really like this movie, but it does have so many cringe worthy lines: Noooooooooooooooo, hello there, It's over I have the high ground, unlimited powaaaaaaaaa!!

I just don't know how they didn't clean up some of the dialogue.

i don't get it. they fight for what feel like 3 hour and suddenly fight stop because obi say "i have high ground?". can you stop all fights just by saying this?

there were several point in anakin-obi wan fight where one had high ground. i think when they were on thing floating on lava, one of them was above the others.

It's still better than some of Max's dialogue in Mad Max Fury Road.

"At least that way we might be able to...together...come across some kind of redemption". 🙄
