Out of that entire movie, that's your favourite part? Geez.
I love the entire movie, don't get me wrong, but I have a thing for bloopers.

Props to Sable for the badass list. I agree in most regards.

How about the poisoned cup in "The Court Jester"?

No worries. It's probably just me; I have issues. The thing is, when I see a list like that (IE a long list of favorite movies/movie scenes, movies, all of which were made long before anyone else on this board was born), it renders two images in my head:
1. Someone old enough to have seen those movies when they were recent, and doesn't get "movies these days"
or
2. That guy that works at every movie store you've ever been to. The one that drops the words "film" or "cinema" into every sentence. The guy who defines himself as an intellectual because of his "sophisticated film palet that only craves the classics". The one that looks down his nose at you for renting The Matrix because, clearly, you're one of the "unwashed masses" who think that "a good movie is about explosions and special effects instead of plot, good characters, or a moving storyline", because as we all know, one always precludes the others. The one who, deep down inside, thinks that he's going to be an important director one day, despite the fact that he's never actually written anything, but none of that matters, because that hollywood video nametag says that he is the AUTHORITY on film, and you'd better recognize.
