20 Most Ridiculous Lines From The Harry Potter Films

17. "She's Got Nice Skin" - Half-Blood Prince

The Line: This whole exchange is so demented we'll just include it all, for the sake of both context and your own perverse amusement: Ron: So what is it he sees in her? Harry: I don't know. She's smart...funny...attractive... Ron: Attractive? Harry: You know...she's got nice skin. Ron: Skin? Are you saying Dean's dating my sister because of her skin? Harry: Well, no, I mean, I'm just saying it could be a contributing factor. Ron: Hermione's got nice skin, wouldn't you say? As skin goes, I mean. Harry: I've never really thought about it, but I suppose, yeah. Very nice. I think I'll be going to sleep now. Ron: Right, yeah... Why It's Ridiculous: Though to any fully functioning adult, having a conversation like this just defies logic, we must remember that Harry and Ron are still young men in Half-Blood Prince, and any grown man can likely think back to being a hormonal teenager and saying stupid things about girls they like. The scene is undeniably awkward and certainly not to all tastes, even if it does feel strangely genuine in a way. Whether you're a fan of it or not, it's hard to argue with the ridiculousness of the whole exchange.
