Favorite scenes in comedy movies ...

According to the box set, he helped type it.

JEFF!

P.S. If you get the box set, you can hear a very dirty song that Dusty Bottoms (Chevy Chase) was supposed to sing called "Happy!"

 

That song is hy-sterical!!!

AIRPLANE!: I like the part where the white pre-pubecent boy asks the white pre-pubecent girl if she wants coffee, asks her if she wants cream, and she says that she likes it black, like her men! The look on the boy's face when she says that is priceless!

SPINAL TAP: I like the part where the rock musician is explaining how a Marshall amp can go to 11.

ADVENTURES IN BABYSITTING: The part where the kids and their babysitter run into a blues bar and are forced to sing the blues before they can leave!

(I don't know if it can be considered a comedy, but...) FULL METAL JACKET: I like the part at the beginning in the barracks when the drill seargent is insulting all of the new recruits.

THE JERK: The whole movie is funny!

Those are the only ones I can think of off the top of my head.

 

Time Bandits
The scene where the guys on the boat end up on a giant's head as he walks far from where they want to be. To drug him they have to pound a funnel into his head.

 

Somebody should have!

Mel Brooks has been in Melbourne overseeing the local production of The Producers, I'll definitely be buying a ticket when it opens in Sydney

 

Hey Gary: rest assured at least one person knows! "Phenomenology...teach the bomb about phenomenology."

 

I like the part where they get stuck in Prescott, AZ. I have a friend from there and he loves it because he says it's just like it is the movie, all crabby old people.

 

I believe that Randy wrote a plethora of lines for the movie!

 

Dinner party singing "Day-O" around the table in Beetlejuice. Sheer genius!

 

three great ones, Mike! sadly, I understand every bit of the logic Stern and Cusak use in the Diner and HF scenes. my wife just shakes her head.

 

incidentally, I'm offering a free copy of The Commitments dvd. see details in Geoman's Pay it Forward thread under Classifieds.

 

Matt, do you know what "plethora" means?

JEFF!
