I'd like to see the Super Troopers scene from The Dukes of Hazzard movie, but don't want to bother with the whole movie. Does anyone rent movies just for a short scene?

What are some other saving scenes of otherwise inane movies?

Which question should I answer first?

The answer to your question is youtube.

Someone posted an Anna Faris scene from Smiley Face. I thought it was pretty funny so I checked out the movie and it turned out that scene was the only funny part in the movie.

You saved me a possible rental there. The letter-perfect stoner free-association clip had mildly piqued my interest.

Usually, the first question is a good place to start. If you feel confident about your performance, feel free to attempt the other questions. Or if you pick one out that you think is easier than the others, then by all means, offer your insight to that one. I'd like to suggest that you try to answer a question with a statement. Responding to a question with another question is usually not productive, unless you require clarification about the original question.

That works if you're lucky and the desired clip exists on youtube. Unfortunately, I was not lucky. I tried searching for "dukes hazzard super troopers" and "dukes hazzard Chandrasekhar" to narrow it down. Searching "dukes hazzard movie" and trying to sift through the thousands of results would be more time consuming and annoying than watching the whole movie itself.

I have Blockbuster Online, so if I can't find it on Youtube i'll just add it to my queue.
