Great Scenes in Bathrooms

I've noticed that there are a lot of great movie scenes that are set in bathrooms.

The ones that I like:

Copycat: Don't want to spoil it for those who haven't seen it, but the serial killer is pretty damn smart at the end of the movie in the bathroom scene.

Austin Powers - The scene with Tom Arnold and Austin is in the next stall. Hilarious!!

Can't Hardly Wait: Seth Green and Lauren Ambrose get stuck in the bathroom during the party.

Lethal Weapon 2: Murtaugh is stuck on the toliet and Riggs comes in to save him. "We go on 3!!"

Goldeneye: Bond makes his entrance through an air vent, over-top a guy doing his business.

True Lies: One of the best fights scenes ever. Arnold taking a piss with the camera sunglasses on and sees the guys trying to kill him. Best use of a hand dryer.

Is there anymore that you can think of?

Detroit Rock City, where the guys hide in the girls' bathroom to avoid the wrath of Elvis.

The zipper incident in Something About Mary

The whole fight scene and aftermath from Fatal Attraction

The cruel "Man, Fix Your Fucking Face!" scene from Vanilla Sky in which Cruise ends the scene laughing his ass off.

The tub scene from that Van Der Beek (and others) movie whose title escapes me at the moment. Sorry.

Richie Tenenbaum's attempted suicide in "The Royal Tenenbaums" strikes me as a particularly great bathroom scene.

Trainspotting rules them all.

And the waking of John Murdock in Dark City was a pretty scene as well. I love the shot of him dropping the fish into the bathtub.

True Lies fight/shootout, 25th Hour speech. Scarface, when Pacino beats the shit out of that guy who's screwing around with his sister in the bathroom stall.

It is a sin that no one has yet mentioned Mr. Orange's cop story scene from Reservoir Dogs. A very stylish and well-crafted editing job.

How about the scene in "The Cable Guy" where Jim Carrey is pretending to be a bathroom attendant and he beats up Owen Wilson while singing an upbeat jazz tune?

I think that was the first movie I ever saw Owen Wilson in. "Have those eggs had a chance to hatch, man? Can you check on those, sorry to put you out"

Can you really classify that as a movie?

Lethal Weapon 3 also has a bathroom seen where Riggs says "Come into my orifice." which is the mens bathroom and Rene Russo walks in.

Alternatively...

"Where's the money, Lebowski? Where's the fucking money, shithead?"

"It's uh... uh... it's down there somewhere, let me take another look."

or...

"Like hey man, this is a private residence"


Also on the thread, the obvious...Psycho

Not just Orange's cop story but also when Buscemi and Keitel have their "was it planned?" dialogue...it sorta looks like a bathroom.

The ending of Blood Simple.

The first shot of a toilet being flushed in an American film was in Psycho, which I guess makes it a major milestone in the history of bathroom scenes.

Just got done watching X2, and Mystique has a great scene with a guard in the bathroom.

Very "dirty".

Private Pyle's last moments in Full Metal Jacket.

The confrontation in Robocop.

Chance arrests Cody in the airport bathroom in To Live and Die in L.A., scaring the hell out of some innocent bystanders.

Donnie Darko takes his pills and puts Frank's eye out.

Lee masturbates to her corrected typos in Secretary.

Dershowitz speculates via repeated flashbacks about what actually happened to Sunny in Reversal of Fortune.

Deadly paper cuts in Cast a Deadly Spell.

Russell finally kills a man in Deep Cover.

Vincent is robbed of reading the ending of Modesty Blaise in Pulp Fiction.

IIRC, that was the bathroom Jack was busting into when he spoke those immortal words in The Shining. If not, this movie must still be mentioned for the sick moment when hypnotized Jack wanders into the bathroom of the scary suite for some nasty ghost lovin's.

The Warriors: The Warriors confront and defeat a gang known as "The Punks" in a subway station men's room at Union Square. The best fight scene in the film.

Another Shining bathroom scene people have left out:

Jack talking to Grady in the bathroom...

"You're the caretaker, Mr. Torrance. You've always been the caretaker."

Terminator 3 has a great scene that almost equals the one in True Lies.

Love it when Arnold picks up the T-X and shoves her headfirst into the toliet.

Not much left of the bathroom when they are done.

I loved the T3 scene as well, although Arnold bashing the T-X over the head with the urinal was my favorite part.

Young Guns - Buckshot Williams; still can't believe they killed off Charlie Sheen that early in the movie

Jacobs Ladder - the ice bath

Pulp Fiction - Travolta's monologue when they get back from Jack Rabbit Slim's

Full Metal Jacket - disturbing to say the least

It's not from a movie, but that episode of Tenacious D where they fill up a jar with jizz accompanied by "Eye of the Tiger." Genius, simply genius.
