What is the most ridiculous made up thing/line of dialogue in the entire film?

Battlefield earth has a lot of stupid lines and made up crap... but even I couldn't list them all so I am rationalizing that we can settle for just 10 choices ;D

What other kinds of cameras are there other than picto?  ???

Reminds me of "Hands": Hands of Fate.   ;)

Pak-Man

Until "Just like riding a wild horse" (Or whatever he says) is added, I'm going with "Blow the dome!!!" :^)

Compo-Gradients.

It reminded me of "Flavo-fibes" and all the other goofy giberish from Overdrawn at the Memory Bank.

I love the way Travolta delivers it.  It's like he has no clue as to what "over the top" means.

Can anyone tell me why a guy is named "Planetship"? I mean I have heard ridiculous names before... but that's just damn downright embarassingly stupid. L Ron Hubbard must have let watching 3 stooges episodes influence his sci-fi writing.

Tony Farms AKA Puma Man

My favorite line was when the fat guy came off the transporter and said:

"Pathetic. All the green and the blue sky. They told me this planet was ugly, but this has got to be one of the ugliest crap holes in the entire universe."


That the Psychlos say 'Crap holes' has to be the funniest thing I heard in that movie.

Phantom of Krankor

I swear to god, this movie was written by a four year old! It was amazing how they had all the bizaar uses of the word "crap." "How the crap should I know?" "Crap-lousy cielding!" "The is one of the ugliest crapholes I have ever seen!" It as if the little kid writing the script was proud of himself for writing such "adult language." Hello, ever hear of the S word?!

Other than that, I'd have to say it would be Travolta's "SPELL YOUR NAME!" line. The delivery was just so hilariously bad that I couln't stop laughing.

Another thing that should be on that list is the whole "Piece of Cake." That annoyed the hell outa me.
I am Ambassador Phantom, from the planet Krankor! I am rapidly approaching your planet... in the warship, which you have just seen. I will arrive tomorrow night at precisely eight o'clock. At that time I shall make my wishes known to you. You will obey them... or die! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA! HA!

Your wish is my command... it is now choice #11  ;D

Phantom of Krankor

Ah, thank you. ;D "I'm going to blow the dome?" "You're going to blow the dome." "Piece of cake! Piece of cake, piece of cake, peice of cake! Oooh oooh oooh aaah ah ah!!!" Gah...

lol, you know what's sad? The guy who played Krankor acts circles around John Travolta  :D Can you imagine if they had a baby? "AH HAH HAH HAH HAH HAH!!! STUPID RAT PRINCE OF SPACE! I'VE GOT YA NOW, YOU SCUM RATBRAIN!!!"

Travolta could give the Robot Devil a run for his money in ACTING!!!, only he doesn't have the dignity. However, I think picto-cameras (and it's counterpart man-animals) has to be the single dumbest "Space! Robots! The future!" thing in the movie.
