Whats everyone's favourite scene?


just curious :-)

I only watched this a few days ago for the first time, but I LOVED the campfire scene. I had no idea Rievr Phoenix wrote the part where he says he loves Keanu Reeves' character himself - geez he was good.

For comedy, the bubble bath scene made me crack up at how cute and strange it was at the same time! I love how the dude is like "We will see you soon" or something and Riever is like "Yeah right" and just continues with the bubbles lol

My favorite is the scene in the gang's hangout after the robbery, when Bob tells about what happened when he and the others stole money from the other people.

I liked that scene too and I wonder if it reflected the real Bob or just the Falstaff character.

Next to the campfire scene...

The scene in Italy, right after Mike finds out his mom ain't there anymore .. him breaking down on Scott's shoulder. Heartbreaking, tender, and well acted. Subtle expression of their closeness.

I also like the scene when Bob wakes up and Mike and Scott are stealing his coke.

The Daddy Carroll scene, easily. Rudy Vallee, the mini-monologue about "immaculate perfection", Dutch Boy scrubbing, and tap-dancing...cinema doesn't come more bizarrely intoxicating.

The funniest scene to me is definitely when the police raid the place and Mike and Scott and pretending to have sex, with the whole "we're looking for a fat man, fat as butter" dialogue included and Bob pulls that face

I also liked any scene with Hans, hes too adorable!




Ashmi any question

Hahah that was hilarious

TURN MY PAGES, BITCH!

reply

When Hans knocks on the bathroom door and is like "Im extremely excited" and Mike's in the bath tub and hes like "I just got in, can you wait your turn?" and Mike imitating Hans "ya ya ya" lol and the lamp scene was hilarious to me

Mine is the campfire one. It's so raw and seems so real.
