Favorite Movie Scene

My favorite movie scene of all time is from a comedy. It happens to be my favorite movie as well. In this scene, which is only about 3 minutes long, King Arthur argues with a peasant about systems of government. Classic.

While Harry Was Sleeping In Seattle, Sally Got Mail

I've often wanted to make a movie parody that skewered the romantic comedy genre. It would be the perfect romantic comedy because both sexes could enjoy it. It would actually contain a romantic plot, so the chicks would watch, but it would be a mocking of the whole idea - a comedy - so the dudes could watch, too.

I would combine all the cheesy plot material of all the favorite romantic comedies (When Harry Met Sally, You've Got Mail, While You Were Sleeping, Sleepless in Seattle, Notting Hill, Wedding Planner, etc.). I would use real actors, but not stars, that had names that were very close to the names of real romantic comedy stars. Names like Julie Roberts, Tim Hanks, Marge Ryan, Jennifer Lopes. I would even splice movie titles together to get the super parody name - While Harry Was Sleeping in Seattle, Sally Got Mail. I would watch it.

Pulp Fiction

I just watched Quentin Tarantino's Pulp Fiction for the first time. I had no idea what to expect, as the 90's was kind of my lost decade and didn't pay much attention to cultural things back then. Aside from the f-word being used in two out of three words, it was difficult for me to figure out what the point was. But it was definitely one of the funniest movies I've ever seen. My favorite line was when Harvey Keitel said to Travolta and Jackson, drenched in blood and not realizing that they needed a change of clothes, "You look like a couple of guys who just blew somebody's head off." I haven't laughed that hard in months. If anything, I can now say that I've seen the movie.
