I'm sure many of you know of scenes from movies or TV shows that are supposed to be "serious" shows or movies but end up being so over-the-top they make you laugh out loud. Here's one great example of this, from the teen drama series "The Secret Life of the American Teenager" (starts after 2:20)...
(on a sidenote, the kid dancing in the beginning looks like a young Imago )

Phoebe Cates' monologue from Gremlins in which she explains why she doesn't like Christmas cracks me up...

The worst thing that ever happened to me was on Christmas. Oh, God. It was so horrible. It was Christmas Eve. I was 9 years old. Me and Mom were decorating the tree, waiting for Dad to come home from work. A couple hours went by. Dad wasn't home. So Mom called the office. No answer. Christmas Day came and went, and still nothing. So the police began a search. Four or five days went by. Neither one of us could eat or sleep. Everything was falling apart. It was snowing outside. The house was freezing, so I went to try to light up the fire. That's when I noticed the smell. The firemen came and broke through the chimney top. And me and Mom were expecting them to pull out a dead cat or a bird. And instead they pulled out my father. He was dressed in a Santa Claus suit. He'd been climbing down the chimney... his arms loaded with presents. He was gonna surprise us. He slipped and broke his neck. He died instantly. And that's how I found out there was no Santa Claus.

That scene in "Poltergeist" when the tree attacks Robbie through the window. I know that movie is supposed to be scary, but I have always thought that was hilarious! In fact, Robbie gets his ass kicked by a toy clown later on, and then by his own braces in the 2nd movie!

in Troy, when that slut who caused the war between the two armies showed up on the rooftop of the castle right before the war started. the fucking nerves!

My theory is that one of his high heels broke as he was walking, and they added the gunshot sound FX during production and figured out how to end the movie.

InsatiableCream said:

OMG! that was the first thing to come to my mind, but I didn't want to post it

You might be right. The guy on the jet-ski was 100% ham.

damn, you bet me to it.

pretty much anything in showgirls is unintentionally hilarious.

the lines about eating dog food and loving it, cyrstal saying she was named after cristal (but pronouncing cristal wrong)

here it is recreated:

no one has ever used a ketchup bottle to act as hard as elizabeth berkely.

and the sex scene in showgirls is HILARIOUS. it's like watching a dolphin have a seizure.

Now see, you aren't right for bringing up that clown scene AT ALL
. How come my mom bought my sister and I twin clowns 2ft. tall each less than 3 months after seeing this stupid movie....and the crazy woman didn't even make the connection that they would scare the shit out of her kids ...with her horror movie afficionado ass . I can tell you what, those goddamned clowns went right into the basement as soon as we opened them, and she STILL han't gotten rid of them and they haven't had kids in the house for 20 years . FUCK those clowns, I hate those evil suckers . You visit my parents house and go down to the basement, and they're just sitting on the daybed looking at you like this:



Evil lil red-nosed fuckers

I'm sitting at my desk at the kids are doing work... and I just burst out laughing!

I'm sorry your Mom did that mess...

When I was looking for the tree clip, I ran across the "Poltergeist" clown scene, and a bunch of other evil clowns from movies... remember "Pennywise" from "IT"?!

the scene in pearl harbour when ben affleck comes back from the dead.

all that was going through my head was 'Jerry, Jerry' as in Springer.

Girlll, Poltergeist did me IN as a kid! There i no way in hell I was going to sit through tv and watch "It"

As for my mom, she TOTALLY did not make the connection at all She loves horror movies and are not affected by them in.the.least. . That mess is fine when you don't have young kids!!!! Girrl, another time we went to visit relatives, and she and her sisters had a pow wow movie night and decideed they all wanted to see the movie (I think Stephen King's) "Christine"...their crazy asses just drug all the kids, stuffed us full of pop corn and candy and thought we would fall asleep during the movie....LAWD, when that shit was over and we walked out to the parking lot to discover that the car we were riding home in (from my elder cousin who came late) looked.just.like.the.POSSESED.CAR.IN.THE.MOVIE .... this was almost MY reaction:










I swear, sometimes coming from a family of colorful southern women is really not all it's cracked up to be
