RotS is fresh in my mind, so here's a few from that.

RotS:

Anakin: I've grown twice as powerful since the last time we fought.
Dooku: Twice the pride, twice the fall (or something like that).
(It's bad enough that the Jedi go around quantifying their power, but then both the Jedi and the Sith use that as the basis for their lame repartee.)

Palpatine: ummwhaggahaROOOOOO!!!
(Whatever he said when he blew Mace out the window.)

Anakin: You're talking like a Separatist!
Obi-Wan: My loyalties are to the REPUBLIC, to deMOCracy!
Padme: So this is how liberty dies -- with thunderous applause.
(Political drama can be really interesting. Unfortunately, Lucas thinks throwing in a few polisci 101 words is the same thing as writing political drama, or saying something meaningful about political philosophy. It's not. One could say a lot about Lucas's confusion between democracy and republicanism, but let's save that for another day.)
