10) Dumb and
Dumber
Scene: Lloyd and Harry eat hot candy.
Significance: I’d call this the Citizen
Kane of movie scenes. First Harry and Lloyd make asses out of
themselves and spray ketchup and mustard all over themselves, and
then the bad guy dies. You could make a movie out of this scene
alone.
Relevance: I often times would eat hot candy,
and this scene tells of the harsh yet true repercussions that
follow such course.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: That part in Citizen
Kane when everything got all serious. Boring.
9) Silence of the
Lambs
Scene: Hannibal Lector throws a plate of goo on
Clarice.
Significance: Seriously, if the word
“pwned” had to be put towards one example, this would
be it. He fucking threw his juice on you.
Relevance: He really raises the bar for the rest
of us, here. It’s hard to top saving a pan of your genes for
countless weeks to throw on a lady.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: Countless pornos.
8) Revenge of the
Nerds
Scene: The nerds beat the jocks.
Significance: If there’s one thing I love
it’s jerks getting beaten.
Relevance: I’m a nerd and I never win at
anything.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: The 1994 World
Series.
7) Monty Python
and the Holy Grail
Scene: King Arthur defeats the Black Knight.
Significance: Though greatly smaller and weaker
than the Black Knight, Arhtur prevails, but not easily.
Relevance: It’s funny when the Black Knight
kicks him.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: Forrest Gump when
that dude gets his legs blown off. What a downer.
6) Rambo
Scene: Rambo stands unmoved as a tiny little
Chinese guy shoots at him..
Significance: That is how little he thinks of
you, small Chinese man. You are firing A GODAMN GUN at him and he
is completely fine with that. You also fail to shoot him.
Relevance: Badass dudes always get points.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: Sticks and Stones,
kids shooting each other.
5) Full Metal
Jacket
Scene: The fat guy shown above loses his mind
and steals a gun and bullets. He proceeds to shoot his drill
sergeant and himself in the process.
Significance: Yes, you may be a drill sergeant,
but you were still an asshole to me, and now I’m going to
shoot you.
Relevance: He who laughs last.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: Ernest Goes to Camp,
when Ernest shoots his counselor in the head.
4) Adaptation
Scene: Charlie Kaufman finds himself in a state
of writer’s block with no feasible exit. He begins to scroll
through interior monologue within his head, and the results are
funny: “I’ll write now and reward myself with food
later”.
Significance: The self assurance that a reward
is pending helps people write.
Relevance: He’s funny and has next to no
self-confidence.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: Tommy Boy when Chris
Farley sucks at selling car parts.
3) Deuce Bigalow.
Male Gigalo.
Scene: Deuce tricks Allison into dipping her
boobies into a fish tank.
Significance: (stares).
Relevance: (stares).
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: Huh? Did you say
something?
2) The Godfather
Scene: Michael Corleone is set to kill. A gun
has been stationed in the bathroom and he is fully aware. He asks
to be excused, is, and returns with the gun, shooting both men.
Significance: I love the mob, and seeing this
almost brings a tear to me eye.
Relevance: The ear shattering noise in the
background only adds to the effect, you can’t watch this
scene without getting a little excited.
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: The Godfather Part
3. Ugh.
1) Reservoir Dogs
Scene: Mr. Pink has just been slugged by Mr.
White. They’re exchanging harsh words while aiming their
guns at each other. As this is going on, Mr. Blonde enters,
brandishing a soda and an unconcerned look.
Significance: Mr. Blonde is the most badass
character I’ve ever seen portrayed in a movie. He has a cool
outlook and an interesting outlook on how to achieve results.
Relevance: Mr. Blonde goes on to hack off a
cop’s ear. This scene is still better. “Are you going
to bark all day, little doggie, or are you gonna bite?”
Comparable Bad Movie Scene: Austin Powers: The
Spy Who Shagged Me, Austin vs. Dr. Evil. STOP ACTING LIKE A FIRST
YEAR FUCKIN' SPY.
