That was a horrible line.

And it was more like, "You are...
never leaving this tower...
EVAH!!!" You can hear the actress trying to pull it off, but it just doesn't work. I also hate that they mention rhinos in her song...
And I find most of Hunchback's dialogue to be cringeworthy. Also, songs from the '90s, like "Colors of the Wind," "God Help the Outcasts," "Reflection," etc. tended to be hard to watch just because of how syrupy and cliched the lyrics are.
Wait Disney's Divinity, didn't they cut the rhino part in the film? I remember that line was only on the soundtrack.
Oh and the lines from the second half of Brother Bear and the whole movies of Home on the Range and Chicken Little put me in a blind raging fury.

Esmeralda's "JUSTICE!" line in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Actually, whenever she opens her irksome trap. I do like Frollo's dialogue, however.

Does this mean that when lions die in the LK world their pelts are used for rugs? do they have taxidermy shops? do the lions like to decorate their caves with macabre interior decor? What?!

It's a bit out there, but the bit where Scar's pelt is a throw rug in
Hercules justifies the line's existence as far as I'm concerned.

^ This. Hercules even uses it to wipe this face and throw it away like a rug as well.

Good. Freaking. Gravy. Sexist much, Gaston?

Sure that line DOES make some people cringe but I think that was the point to how shallow Gaston is.

Okay, the line probably isn't cringe worthy. But it does piss me off.

It's not supposed to be taken seriously at all. I suppose "Poor Unfortunate Souls" pisses you off too?

And all of this comes from the same guy who goes around calling "bitch" to every female character.
What's wrong, Disneyjedi? Can dish it but can't take it?

Well, the character
is supposed to be sexist and chauvinistic. Not to mention, his complete ignorance towards literature (hence his other complaint about the lack of pictures in Belle's book). It's meant to contrast him with Beast, who excitedly shows Belle a whole library of books to impress her rather than merely flashing a smile and showing off his moose heads.

Actually, no. Sure, Ursula says something along the lines of girls having to be seen and not heard in the song, but at least she doesn't tell Ariel that she should never leave the kitchen or to go into the kitchen and make a baby or something. Ursula only told Ariel that it was better to be silent as a means to convince her to give up her voice for legs.
I'd assume that Gaston would want Belle to be just his housewife/personal slave while reminding her daily that all she's meant to do is clean and cook, not daydream or think.

Not exactly a line, but I figured I should mention: Part of Your World covers. As far as I'm concerned, I've never seen a POYW cover that changes the lyrics (like the Jonas Brothers' Poor Unfortunate Souls or Christina Aguilera's Reflection) or adds extra ones (like the Cheetah Girls' So This is Love).
Unlike other Disney songs, POYW's context is very much explicit in its lyrics, and I'm sure that, if one tried, the lyrics could be tweaked to make it into something more vague, still conveying the feeling of dreaming about something virtually impossible. But that never happens. No matter who's performing, it will still mention flipping fins and exploring the shore above and thingamabobs and have the performer wondering what are feet called. It just irks me.

Not a line but few things make me cringe harder in recent disney history than this shot here.
As well as the shot that follows it with him nodding.

You don't even need to assume that, since the scene right before Belle's Reprise establishes Gaston only wants to marry Belle, because she's pretty and to have "a rustic hunting lodge, my latest kill roasting on the fire, and my little wife massaging my feet, while the little ones play on the floor with the dogs. We'll have six or seven."

I'm surprised no one has said this scene from Wreck It Ralph-
Ralph: "See ya later, President Fart-feathers!"
Vanellope: "Au revior, Admiral Underpants!"
Ralph: "And farewell, Verminous Booger-face!"
Vanellope: "Goodbye, Major Body Odor!"
Ralph: "Hasta la vista ya- *Felix yells at Ralph*, alright to be continued!"
Such a nice scene earlier ruined by lame humor to get the little ones laughing.

Yeah, any of the "doody" jokes in WiR ruin it for me. It's still a decent film though.

We he did say that he wanted her because she's the most beautiful women there and to have young boys with. I think he had this idea of going hunting with his super- duper attractive sons and then coming home to rest by the fire while Belle rubs his feet and serves him and the boys Deer for dinner. :/
And people say that Adam was Stockholm Syndromeing her.
There's also
" Leave the Sowing to the Women " ! Line in Cinderella, but it's 60 years old so it's more forgivable.

It's "Leave the sewing to the women" but I'm sure the women back then did their fair share of sowing too!

Yeah, I have to admit, while I really liked Pascal when I first saw
Tangled, he really started to grate on me in repeat viewings. His comic relief is just a little too forced and on the nose for me.
