Worst Love Story in Film
So my Star Wars friend got me into watching the Mr. Plinkett Reviews the Prequel Star Wars Videos[NSFW] and when Attack of the Clones came around, the guy basically says that Anakin and Amadala's romance is probably one of the worst in cinema. The two of us discussed it and started a game trying to figure out a love story that is more contrived and with less chemistry than this film. To make this interesting, we established some rules:
1) Has to be a big budget or at least well known film. Obviously some low budget direct to video nonsense is going to have bad acting and writing.
2) The female character has to be an actual character in the story with a defined personality and story arch of their own. If she's just some object of affection the main character is trying to woo the whole film and has less lines than the best friend character, she's not a major character, she's a plot device.
3) The love story has to be somewhat prominent in the film. It can't just be the writer's deciding at the last minute to hook everyone up Mrs. J.K. Rowling.
So, can you come up with a film that fulfills all three of the above criteria and still be worse than the romance between Luke and Leia's parents?
