This was inspired by The Man himself! What are your favorite moments in movies or tv shows when you just shit yourself laughing when really, you’re supposed to be digging out the tissue?
I think my favorite, along with many others, is in Meet Joe Black where he gets hit by a car and his body just goes flying hahahaha that one gets me everytime. I think that that scene is supposed to be funny anyway, and oh it is.
At the ending of Blue seed some girl dies and it’s supposed to be really sad, but the expression on the guys face is just really funny so I laugh instead.
In Quest of Fire - When the bald guy drops the fire in the water; When the heroes get stuck on a tree; and when the girl turns around while in a sexual act with the protagonist - really, me and some friends were all like “history’s first version of kama sutra, with two positions only!”
Titanic, when the goddamned ship finally sank. The best part were the people who were surprised by the ending, I mean “OH SHIT THE SHIP SANK! I TOTALLY DIDN’T SEE THAT ONE COMING!”.
Volcano. The bit in the subway, where the guy, I think he was a fireman, tried to rescue the last survivor from the train, he carries him and jumps out through the back door into the lava and launches the guy as far as he can whilst his legs ‘melt’ away (followed by the rest of him).
I find myself laughing at most tragedies that occur in movies. I find it hard to sympathise with those scenes because I know that they aren’t real… well unless the movie is made really well, like Requiem For A Dream.
