SceneItAll Tournament: Round 1, Heat 65
The rules:
In Round 1, I'm going to put up three randomly selected scenes from the nomination thread. You'll vote for your ONE favorite scene among the three. The key here is FAVORITE. We're not talking about the 'best' or 'most powerful' or 'most meaningful'. We're talking about the scene that you most enjoy watching, however you define that. The winners will move on. I'll also take the 10 highest-scoring second-place scenes and they'll advance as wild cards. Some of our nominations did not include clips. This will be noted. If you find a clip, please post it and let me know so I can update it if it moves on. |

I'm going to go ahead and predict a landslide win for The Jerk in this heat.

I'm wondering if we'll have a generational divide here. Will Ferrell is worshipped by a lot of younger folks who may not know the greatness of The Jerk, while those of us in the older age brackets will feel the opposite. I do really like the Little Shop of Horrors scene, too. It may be the best scene in the movie.

The Jerk is an iconic movie, but those other scenes are pretty well revered also. |

This is a tough one. Really tough. My votes:
#1 - Little Shop of Horrors - Levi Stubbs' voice is great in this one, and I like the lyrics. It's a great scene that tackles the moral dilemma of seeking fame and fortune at the cost of others. #2 - The Jerk - It kills me to not vote for this scene, because I really like it. "He hates cans!" #3 - Old School - Will Ferrell is overrated, but I like Dust in the Wind.

The Jerk... Ferrell has done much better and the whole LSH fad was before my time, and even then, what little I've bothered with it says "not good enough" for this all time competition.

I've never encountered a person so diametrically opposed to me when it comes to movies as RainMan, we're always the total opposite... you are the Mr. Glass to my Bruce Willis.

Apparently we do complement each other.

How are there so many Little Shop of Horror scenes in this thing? I don't get it.
I haven't seen a single Shawshank Redemption, and as I've mentioned once or twice, nothing with Leslie Nielson. What's going on here?

Oh, and I guess now is as good a time as any to tell you. There were no Leslie Nielsen scenes nominated. Apparently his scenes are not generally viewed as the best movie scenes ever.

I guess I'll clarify that there were no nominated scenes from his Naked Gun or Airplane performances.
