Steve Martin preparing his famous jarva and taking hours to pour the powder it into the bowl! I couldn't stop laughing and had to watch it again and again. His facial expression, his movement- so perfect. For me definetly one of the funniest film scenes ever!
shareHehehehe! Yeah.
I love the part where he's trying to find a blond to use undercover. I love what he says about the last one
"I almost hated to use her. She was so much in love with me it nearly made me sick."
That was hysterical...I loved when he stopped pouring for a second and you think he's done and all of a sudden, he starts pouring again. Funny as hell.
shareTaking nothing away from Steve and the coffee scene (yes, absolutely hilarious), Red Skelton had a live on stage show on HBO a couple of decades ago; he was talking about sneaky people while fixing a cup of coffee. You were listening to him talk when suddenly you noticed that he was putting teaspoon after teaspoon of sugar in his coffee. Then he stirred it for a couple of minutes while still talking; by now you weren't hearing a word he said. Then he takes a sip, sets the cup down and stirs in another teaspoon. Then he realize he's back in the monologue about "sneaky people." It was funny as hell.
shareAgreed.
"Who died and made you president Nixon?"
- Peter Griffin
Another scene I love is when he talks about women.
"All dames alike; they reach down your throat and pullout your heart, they throw it on to the floor and step on it with there high-heels. They throw it into the oven and cook the s**t out of it. They slap it on a plate, chop it into little pieces, serve it to you and they expect you to say, Thanks honey, it’s delicious."

LMAO!!! Brilliantly written speech, perfectly delivered by Martin.
Somehow I knew that when I opened this thread, it'd be about the coffee-pouring scene... you have excellent taste, my good man!

He who is tired of Weird Al is tired of life.
I've alwyas wondered how they did that? But it's really funny.

Very amusing
You think up a witty signature.
Juliette Forrest: What does "Foc" mean?
Rigby Reardon: It's a slang word. When a man and a woman are in love, the man puts his...
Juliette Forrest: No, no. Here: "F. O. C."
"nitwit, oddment, blubber, tweak. thank you." - Albus Dumbledore
The Java and F.O.C., yeah...
And the whole "cool stuff", blowing the paper bit from his nose, tricking the cigarette out of his ear, and cleaning the gun in the sink with a pipe cleaner...

"Oscar ? Oscaaar ? Oscar !"
Catherine Johnson in "Hellzapoppin'" (1941)
I love that he exhales a little sigh and glances away in boredom in the middle of his epic coffee pour. ha ha ha
And let's not forget the two eggs, every good pot of coffee needs.
I love when Rigby first walks into Swede's place and finds him alseep/passed out. "Sorry, Swede, I thought you'd been murdered." LOL!!
And then when he glances out the kitchen as he's making the coffee, sees Swede sitting up in bed and says, "Good, you're up. Java'll be ready in a minute." He's totally oblivious that two thugs are about to bust in and start shooting.
"And you wanna be my latex salesman?"
The first time I saw this was when it came out, I was a kid, in love with Rachel Ward, and I thought this scene was bogus. I also hated the way he kept on saying java every 30 seconds.
Now, much older and wiser in the ways of film noir, I love it. The repeated "java" bit is sort of like Fred MacMurray's constatnly saying baby in Double Indemnity.
I asked the doctor to take your picture so I can look at you from inside as well.
I thought the scene with Steve Martin dressing up in drag to see James Cagney in prison was absolutely hilarious.
"We're all part Shatner/And part James Dean/Part Warren Oates/And Steven McQueen"
Best line in the whole movie...
"Pick that up"
"But it's all wet and steamy"
handing it to secretary
"and here's something for you too"
Did you tell LUKE..? Is THAT who you could tell??
