Anyone else remember “The Pope of Greenwich Village”?

In that one, Eric Roberts gets a horrible revenge on a traffic cop who had his car towed away. Eric secretly fed the cop some horse laxative, causing the cop to soil himself in the middle of an intersection.

The fly in _Meet The Feebles_ ate shite with a spoon.

“Jumanji” had monkey poop in a cop car. The look on his face was priceless!

It did? I have the movie on VHS and have seen it 4 or 5 times, yet don’t recall that scene.

If I’m not mistaken the opening scene of \*The Cook, the Thief, His Wife, and Her Lover \* features feces and the movie manages to include every other no-no.

Since we seem to have broadened the net to movies that depict nasty, poo-related (I refuse to call it _poop_. Damn! I said _poop_!) things happening to people, then there’s one of the _Back To The Future_ movies where the Bad Guy (Biff?) runs his car into a trailer of manure and ends up with some of it in his mouth.

Speaking of shit, in Australia we’ve just got up to the _Oz_ episode that features Alvarez making some compost in Solitary, and then getting up from the toilet, reaching into it, picking up his creation and spreading it all over the walls.

**Spun** had a brief poop scene of meth-user with constipation. That one is pretty “real.” Also **Along Came Polly** has a poop scene that is almost painful. Isn’t shit fun everybody!

Just to add some peepee to all your’s poopoo:

In _About Schmidt_, Jack Nicholson was forced to sit down to pee by his wife.

I also recall a film which faithfully showed a woman peeing–which was a bit surprising as she was just walking about in her panties (hubba hubba) and all of a sudden down went the panties and down went her bum :eek: (timed so nothing was shown though.) Can’t remember the actress nor film though.

I mentioned this recently in a different thread. In Sideways we are treated to a montage of creep #1’s morning abolutions. My husband commented, “No that’s the right order: shit _then_ shower.”

P.S. both those guys were horse’s asses and Giamati’s character does not deserve Virginia Madson. Just saying.

That happened in The Man who fell to Earth. Was that the movie you were thinking of?

Doesn’t count - she was peeing.

I was surprised to notice that the hippogriff in the latest Harry Potter film poops. I noticed because it was on last weekend, and I wasn’t looking at the screen - I heard the unmistakable “plop” of a horse (or hippogriff) turd hit the dirt and had to rewind the scene to verify what I heard!

There’s also a distubing defecation during the sex scene in _Team America - World Police_. :eek:

Never seen it, and the movie I am thinking of was relatively modern (post '90 if not post '00) I believe. I’ll think about it on the train home (…odd thing to think about on the way home :o )

If you’ve seen \<i\>Van Wilder\</i\>, I don’t think I have to say any more.

If you haven’t … I don’t think I want to.

Another one from _Austin Powers 2_: Austin going to the space station’s bathroom to “evacuate” Mini-Me. Mini-Me was arguably a little turd, certainly. 😛

Alright, I’m thinking that it was probably Nicole Kidman in, perhaps, _Eyes Wide Shut_–as that is the first reference I have found to her and a toilet through a google. (On the train I had been thinking _The Birthday Girl_)

Stretching the envelope a little bit, we have a play on poop-related words in _A Bug’s Life_: A bug waiter in a bar & grill is walking around, holding up a tray and yelling “Who ordered the puupuu platter?” when a couple of flies buzz in and start crawling all over the, um, food.

Along those same lines, in _Flubber_, the bad-guy scientist accidentally swallows some flubber in the movie’s climax; we’re treated to 30 seconds of his strange facial expressions and bodily contortions before the flubber literally shoots out of his butt, tearing a hole in his pants as it does so.

An episode of _Curb Your Enthusiasm_ centered on Larry David’s need to sit while peeing.

At the beginning of 1991’s dreadful [Twenty One](http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103143/combined), Patsy Kensit pees and wipes while speaking to the camera about her stupid life.

_The Rules of Attraction_ features an unnecessarily realistic scene of Dawson Leery doing his business.

The Ladykillers. I can’t remember the characters or actors names but one had to constantly make a big deal about how he had IBS and of course he got hit with an attack during a crucial moment or two in the heist.

Note to filmmakers: IBS is not funny, don’t try to make it funny.

In the movie **S.O.B.** not only do we get to see Julie Andrews baring her breasts, but one character involuntarily emits things from every aperture during the course of the film – he vomits, belches, farts, pees, and, of course, poops. They don’t make films like that anymore.
