Not a line, but I saw Matrix: Revolutions in theater on opening weekend. During the 1-on-1 fight with Smith in the rain, there's a slow-motion shot of Neo punching Smith in the face. It's such bad CGI the entire theater burst into laughter. I'm pretty sure it was intended to be dramatic, but after seeing the latest Matrix movie and how tongue-in-cheek it is about itself, I'm not entirely sure anymore.
The CGI in that movie was so bad that it looked like a then-present-era video game.
Which felt maybe-kinda intentional, or maybe-kinda retconned as intentional?
I had someone in my theater say "Die already" during the prolonged death scene in the ship. People busted out laughing.
