I have just heard the dumbest movie trailer narrator line ever
I just saw a TV spot for the Adam Sandler remake of The Longest Yard and it started with the narrator saying "Quarterback Paul Crewe was arrested for breaking the law..."
Go figure.
Go figure.

Dumbest line in my mind still goes to the often used in tv and film
"He was framed...for a crime he didn't commit."
Wait, let me get this straight, he was FRAMED for something he DIDN'T do?
Shocking.

i think we should change this thread's title to "movie trailer narrations that make you do think they're stupid, but actually aren't"

If you are truly framed you are not arrested for a crime you commited.
