TOP 20 MOVIE INSULTS (OPINION)
Hey... shut up
Hollywood is a vicious place: if you don't have a pointed tongue and a wit to match that of Oscar Wilde, you might as well have 'DUNCE' tattooed on your forehead. Selecting the very best movie insults was an arduous task as there's simply so many to consider. What makes a great movie insult? Swearing will bump you up a few notches but only if used correctly – profanity should be used sparingly and imaginatively. Personal jibes always go down well, particularly about one's weight or mother. But what makes a really winning movie insult is whether it can be used by the everyman. Feel free to roll out any of the following twenty withering put-downs in everyday situations and wait for the kudos to roll in.
20. DODGEBALL (2004)The insulter: Patches O'Houlihan (Rip Torn)
The situation: The eccentric Dodgeball coach gives his team a halftime pep talk and doesn't sugar-coat his instructions. Average Joe's will be average no longer.
The insult: "Will someone please catch a goddamn ball? It's like watching a bunch of retards trying to fuck a doorknob out there!"
Why it rules: Paints quite a picture, doesn't it?
19. WHITE MEN CAN'T JUMP (1992) The insulter: Sidney Deane (Wesley Snipes)
The situation: Trash-talking on the basketball court, a number of 'yo momma' jokes are thrown around but this one really sticks.
The insult: "I seen your mother kicking a can down the street. I said 'What you doin'?' and she said 'Moving'"
Why it rules: Nothing cuts to the bone like a 'yo momma' joke.
