Title: The 32 Greatest Unscripted Movie Scenes
Post by: Steelgrave on November 23, 2014, 01:09:07 PM
Some of these I knew already, some I didn't. Many of Heath Ledger's scenes in Batman were unscripted. This list left off the best one, where Joker sticks his head out of the stolen police car and just enjoys the wind hitting his face.

I'm betting a few will surprise you.

Yeah!  #8 was my favourite scene from that movie.  Also, nice to see Bill Murray make it a couple of times.

It seems like some of the best movie scenes are unscripted. Of course you could never write a script for R. Lee Ermy. Got it Numb-nuts.

wasn't the bra removal scene in Flashdance unscripted.  Now that is a classic.

Nice find, Steelie

Of the 20 scenes I'm familiar with, I can only claim I already knew 8 of them were unscripted; the rest were indeed a surprise to me.  #4 in particular I wouldn't have guessed was ad-libbed.

Yeah, #4 surprised me as well. Along those lines, in the wake of Robin William's passing it has come out that perhaps the majority of his performances were ad-libbed, going back to Mork and Mindy days and including much of Good Morning Vietnam. For Aladdin, producers have said there was enough material for three movies and they picked out the choicest bits.

That would not surprise me at all.  I would guess that if anything, it was more a challenge to keep him on-script than not.

I'd heard that as well.  My impression is they largely wrote the rest of the movie around his (mostly ad-libbed) lines.
