Thinking about the godlike Tracy Morgan got me thinking about this.....name movie scenes acted with such uncanny natural ease or comedic know-how you kept rewinding it and thinking "man, that must have taken one take, and half that shit must have been by accident".....I mean little 5 second instances....it's all about delivery......you know what kind of guy I am and you know what I like, but I'll try to relate to any fanciful "French Ho Delightfully Chewing On Scrumpet and To My Delight, Catching A Delightful Stray Crumb On Her Palm As It Almost Falls Past Her Chin And Being All Delighted"-isms you may list......I just geeked a big preggo chick hard tonight so I even got love for you artsyfarts.

My List:

In "Crooklyn", when the chubby kid walks out onto the stoop to throw the garbage out, then he look around sneakily....oh it kills me..... he starts chucking garbage bits into the hated neighbor's stoop with this priceless urgent clenched cheek look on his face, just like I did when I was a kid trying to pull mischeif off.....this movie was full of these moments....."she got good hair" -- "she got Petta Rican hair!!!".

In "Fresh", Samuel L Jackson is speaking with his son Fresh who he doesn't live with anymore....at one point he tells Fresh not to talk that way about his derelict sister.....Fresh says Fresh will say whatever he wants....the next 1.5 seconds, SLJ's eyes flitter and his head twitches in the realest portrayal of helpless indignation I have EVER seen....he even makes a little chest heave and a PERFECT about-to-yell clipped throat-squeak to top it off....I rewound this tiny tiny bit over 50 times.

Super Troopers: "We're already pulled overrrrr! We can't pull over any furthurrrrrrr!"

Boyz In Tha Hood: Doughboy's out-of-jail party........Ricky, Dough's brother, is cooking burgers on the grill......Cuba Gooding Jr. aka Trey shows up....here it comes....Ricky sees Trey, and without breaking his dancing/head-torso bobbing -- I mean this guy is just LUNGING to the beat (this is how you can tell it's the 80's...the clothes are timeless jeans and footy jersey...it's the aggro gyration nuances that give it away.....people that cant clock the difference can be arty/liberal educated as much as they want, they'll still never understand rap music and it's funny when they try to 'tackle' "URBAN" culture....keep trying ya lubish nut flickin wurmz hahaha) -- anyways, Ricky sees Trey and acknowledges him by pointing his spatula, flicking his chin up and grinning. All without breaking his gyration. Beautiful.

I'm Gonna Git You SUcka: "One Rib".

Last Boy Scout: Damon Wayans is in a car with Bruce Willis trying to warn car alongside that there is a bomb in there.....D draws picture of bomb...badly.....B, obviously flustered, goes IT LOOKS LIKE AN APPLE WITH LINES COMING OUT OF IT!!!!!.

Okay, that's all for tonight. You guys, go, and don't skimp on the facial gesture run-downs.

I'm Gonna Git You SUcka: "One Rib".

Goddamn genius, that bit. And it's hilarious to see Chris Rock looking like that.

I'd have to pick endless moments from Spinal Tap, but then again that was the modus operandi of the whole operation. ".....These go to eleven."
