TOP 10 BATHROOM MOMENTS

Until I started thinking up this list (on the shitter, coincidently) I had no idea how many great Hollywood moments took place in the company of toilets. Don't be scared though, this isn't a list filled with just memorable poops and really good shaves - believe it or not, some of the most powerful moments in cinematic history have actually come from the place Fonzie liked to call "his office". Don't buy it? Check this shit out (c'mon, that's funny).

Beware Spoilers Below

Click here for 10-6

5. Michael Takes Charge - THE GODFATHER (1972)

Had the executions taken place in the bathroom, this would be no contest. We have to settle for the defining moment of family dedication as Michael stops avoiding his destiny and finds the gun. This really isn't about the scene, it's about the moment. Entering that bathroom is the most important event the Corleone legacy. It gave them the power they strived for and sealed the fate of those who couldn't handle it.

4. Come Out and Play - THE WARRIORS (1979)

On the way to clearing their name for the murder of Cyrus, our Warriors find themselves face to face with The Punks while waiting for their train to Coney Island. Since they all wanted to make this list they decide to enter a bathroom and deliver one of the greatest fight scenes of all time. The Punks turn out to be just that as they fall for the old check-under-the-stall trick and end up getting their overall wearing asses kicked before they get a chance to pinch it off.

3. Here's Johnny - THE SHINING (1980)

You can actually take your pick here. There's the bathroom scene with the naked woman that turns into the rotting corpse, the scene where Jack (Jack Nicholson) talks with Delbert (Philip Stone) and learns he's "always been the caretaker", or the scene I've decided to go with here. After Grady lets Jack out of the food locker he decides to spend some time with the family..... and an axe. Jack's one liners are great but the true horror of this scene comes from the performance of Shelly Duvall. It's not hard to imagine that she really is petrified of Jack and makes you wonder how much of the drinky he had before shooting this day.

2. Mother - PSYCHO (1960)

No, I'm not talking about the first toilet to be flushed on screen. Of course I mean the scene that many old timers still consider the scariest moment in the history of movies. You know the drill - Marion (Janet Leigh) gets nude, hops in the shower, scrubs some privates, gets stabbed to death. It doesn't matter how many times you see it, the music still makes your skin crawl. Few scenes have ever matched it's absolute perfection in pace, angle, and suspense.

1. Gomer Pyle - FULL METAL JACKET (1987)

The first third of this film is dominated by Gunnery Sergeant Hartman (R. Lee Ermey). His verbal abuse is epic and for the most part, fun to laugh along with. You almost forget that these other characters that he's talking down to are human. By the end of this first act we get a haunting reminder of how much shit one man can take. Private Leonard Lawrence (Vincent D'Onofio) is the guy taking most of the heat for being fat, out of shape, ugly, and just plain stupid - but just as you stop chuckling and realize what's about to happen, Leo gets the last laugh. Once you've watched this scene I find it impossible to forget.
