Battle of Movie Moments: The Torture of the Gingerbread Man vs. Scotty Don't

Your Champion
The Torture of the Gingerbread Man (Shrek)

VS

Scotty Don't (Austin Powers in Goldmember)

The Case for The Torture of the Gingerbread Man (1):
Shrek had more than its fair share of lazy jokes.  But in one of its more inspired moments, the evil Lord Farquaad (John Lithgow) - in an attempt to get information on the whereabouts of the Magic Mirror - captures and forces the Gingerbread Man to tell what he knows using methods that are quite extreme for someone made out of cookie

The Case for Scotty Don't:

Your Champion
Bohemian Rhapsody Sing-a-Long (Wayne's World)

VS

The Torture of the Gingerbread Man (Shrek)

The Case for Bohemian Rhapsody Sing-a-Long (3):
The opening of Wayne's World adhered to one universal truth:  When Bohemian Rhapsody plays, you sing along with it.  Every time.

Bohemian Rhapsody Sing-a-Long (Wayne's World)

VS

Here's Where I Stand (Camp)

The Case for Bohemian Rhapsody Sing-a-Long (2):
The opening of Wayne's World adhered to one universal truth:  When Bohemian Rhapsody plays, you sing along with it.  Every time.


The Case for Here's Where I Stand:
Throughout Camp, Jenna (Tiffany Taylor, 18 at the time) has a quieter plotline - mostly because her jaws are wired shut in an extreme attempt by her father to make her lose weight.  Her story line comes to fruition on performance night, however, when she has to step in for another performer and turn their song into an anthem for herself.

Battle of Movie Moments: The Exorcism of Jonah Hill vs. Bohemian Rhapsody Sing-a-Long

Your Champion
The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (This Is The End)

VS.

Bohemian Rhapsody Sing-a-Long (Wayne's World)

The Case for The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (4):
Things go south very quickly for the cast of This Is The End, culminating in the demonic possession of Jonah Hill.  His friends gather around to try to exorcise him of the demon in what starts off as a fairly serious scene.  Then it becomes clear that Jay (Jay Baruchal) has no idea what he is doing, and it degenerates from that point on until (hilariously) no one is even paying attention to the demon possessed person they share a room with.

Battle of Movie Moments: The Exorcism of Jonah Hill vs. Once Upon a December

Your Champion
The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (This Is The End)

VS.

Once Upon a December (Anastasia)

The Case for The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (3):
Things go south very quickly for the cast of This Is The End, culminating in the demonic possession of Jonah Hill.  His friends gather around to try to exorcise him of the demon in what starts off as a fairly serious scene.  Then it becomes clear that Jay (Jay Baruchal) has no idea what he is doing, and it degenerates from that point on until (hilariously) no one is even paying attention to the demon possessed person they share a room with.

The Case for Once Upon a December:
A beautiful song about a past she doesn't know, this moment in Anastasia - sung by the title character - is hauntingly beautiful.  Sung as she wanders the deserted palace, the animators show off their abilities as the palace transforms to her childhood recollection of it.

Battle of Movie Moments: The Exorcism of Jonah Hill vs Mirror Monologue

Your Champion
The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (This Is The End)

VS.

Mirror Monologue (25th Hour)

The Case for The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (2):
Things go south very quickly for the cast of This Is The End, culminating in the demonic possession of Jonah Hill.  His friends gather around to try to exorcise him of the demon in what starts off as a fairly serious scene.  Then it becomes clear that Jay (Jay Baruchal) has no idea what he is doing, and it degenerates from that point on until (hilariously) no one is even paying attention to the demon possessed person they share a room with.

The Case for Mirror Monologue:
Sometimes you get really pissed off, and need to vent.  Edward Norton, in 25th Hour, knowing he goes to prison the following day, unleashes a torrent of hate at everyone and everything is this monologue to himself, in what can only be called a panacea of profanity.
