The ball scene in Start the Revolution without Me:
“You said it was a costume ball!”
“I changed my mind.”
*Kill the King!
Kill the Queen!
Kill Escargot!*
LOL. I did not know that. I just assumed it was carefully researched.He could not go straight to Cambridge University as the ending of conscription in the United Kingdom meant there were twice the usual number of applicants for places, so he returned to his prep school for two years to teach science, English, geography, history and Latin. (Wikipedia)
I believe all subjects should be taught at sword point.
Lard Ass Hogan’s Barfarama revenge in Stand by Me:
That scene cries out for a rewrite.
“This is Deja Vu, Chevalier, Montage, Detente, Avant Garde, and Deja Vu…”
DO you now! I guess it takes all kinds… :rolleyes:
The cat in the box scene from Christmas Vacation.
The rehab scene from Ace Ventura, Pet Detective.
‘DeMoNET’
Mark ‘the sickbay method’
Mother ‘you see how well it’s worked for him’
Mark ‘he was always lacking in moral fiber’
Mother ‘he knows a lot about Sean Connery’
Mark ‘that’s no supstitute’
Pee Wee knocking over the biker’s motorcycles in Pee Wee’s Big Adventure
The Hwiskey, Trippin’ Balls and I like to party scenes in Hot Rod (NSFW language).
In Bruges.
It’s pretty much one of my favorite comedies. So many lines and scenes.
And in Clue:
The entire explanation of what happened. Tim Curry’s greatest scene. I can’t find a clip of the whole thing, but it is brillian.
Some great nominees so far. I especially like the scenes from a movie that isn’t remembered as a comedy, like the scene from “cuckoo’s nest”.
The worst part of this scene for me is the very bad acting by the girl who had the tubes in her (Jill Whelan, from Love Boat fame).
This scene is my favorite in a movie full of great scenes. It is perfect in its absurdity. I laugh every time. Slim Pickens delivered lines perfectly.
I am adding the scene in “A Christmas Story”, when Santa Claus puts his foot on Ralphie’s head and kicks him down the slide. “You’ll shoot your eyes out, kid.” A perfect scene to crush his dreams.
Another few from “A Fish Called Wanda”
-
every time Otto says “asshole!” when he drives on the wrong side of the road and blames the Brit.
-
when Otto is sitting on the toilet, Ken walks in, he stands ip and flushes it, even though his pants are on and the seat cover is down.
-
Otto - “Disappointed!”
-
Otto - “Hello, K-K-K-Kens p-p-p-pets!”
A friend of mine used to have a co-worker named Kendall Beck, and couldn’t help but think of that scene whenever his name was mentioned.
“I got a baaad temper!”
“Whoa! That’s a mighty big ‘but,’ Simone!”
“Would you please be quiet? I’m TRYING to use THE PHONE!”
*“Hey, man! Didn’t anybody tell you this is a private party?”
“No, nobody hipped me to that, dude!”
“Why, there is no basement at the Alamo!”*
*“The stars at night/are big and bright!”
“Deep in the heart of Texas!”
“And when they pulled her from the wreck … she looked like THIS!”
“Large Marge sent me.”
“LARGE MARGE?!?”* :eek:
I don’t think I’m going to do Hamster Style anymore.
What, do you think all subjects should be taught at carrot point? :dubious:
I just want to say that of all the examples offered in this thread, the prize winner for me is Michael Palin’s Biggus Dickus scene in Life Of Brian.
When he says, after a suitable pause, “…He has a wife, you know…” I curl up and writhe on the floor, unable to breathe. Every. Single. Time. for 35 years now.
I love that the scene cuts away a nanosecond before Palin loses it himself.
Who am I, Bugs Bunny? :rolleyes:
Maybe no point at all is needed.
The original “The Taking of Pelham One Two Three” has some of the funniest black comedy dialogue, EVER. The first 37 seconds of this scene make me roll on the floor, every single time. But the whole movie is almost hysterically funny. Love me some black comedy.
Must really be arcane. I couldn’t see it for sour beans.
