[WARNING: This list contains video clips that may offend some readers] The bathroom is a room not seen too often in movies – but when it is, it is often for great humor or great tragedy. This mixed list is of the top 10 bathroom scenes in movies.
15. Austin Powers
No list is complete without Austin.
14. The Sweetest Thing
Glory holes and poetry.
13. Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo
[WARNING: This clip contains obscene language] Unfortunately I could not find the actual scene from this movie. In this film, Deuce is called on to save a fish from a toilet. As he is plunging, sounds of a sexual nature begin to come through the wall. Deuce matches the tempo with the plunger to prevent the little boy who owns the fish from hearing it. At the “right moment”, a piece of feces flies out of the toilet and lands in the fish bowl. As I couldn’t find the scene on youtube, I have included the famous “Tourette Syndrome” scene – hilarious. For another toilet scene, this time from Deuce Bigalow European gigalo, you can view this clip on youtube.
12. Dumb and Dumber
Simply put – ex lax and a broken toilet.
11. White Chicks
This is what happens when a lactose intolerant person eats quiche.
10. Something About Mary
In this interesting scene we see Ben Stiller “preparing” himself for a date. Unfortunately the clip is in Italian, but you don’t need to understand the language to understand the humor.
9. Royal Tenenbaums
[WARNING: This clip contains disturbing images of suicide] We have seen this one on the site before – a very disturbing yet beautiful scene.
8. Rules of Attraction
[WARNING: This clip contains disturbing images of suicide] More disturbing than the last – I will never hear this song in the same light again.
7. Pulp Fiction
The end of Vincent.
6. Something About Mary II
I know it is another one from this film – but I had to include this scene. Sorry for the sound quality.
5. Naked Gun
In this scene, Leslie Nielson uses the toilet – forgetting he is wearing a microphone which is broadcasting every sound to a hall full of people gathered to honor the Queen of England.
4. American History X
An emotional scene from a great movie.
3. Psycho
The most famous shower scene in history.
2. Full Metal Jacket
An amazing scene – contains violence.
1. Trainspotting
I am guessing that most people would be expecting to see this one on the list. It definitely has to take position 1.
Notable Omissions: Eyes Wide Shut




















Trainspotting!! That scene is great, I love it when he screams under water,” I F***in got it!”…classic.
Ah, but there is one true classic that was left off – Fast Times at Ridgemont High. Judge Reinhold letting his, er, imagination run wild about Phoebe Cates exiting the pool, only to have her walk in on him. Brilliant!
or in austin powers when austin is attack by the irish guy in the stall
Great to see trainspotting in the top spot… great movie, great scene…. also nice to see that the royal tenenbaums is in there… another great scene
I was waiting for the Pulp Fiction scene!
I thought about this scene too pretty funny:
I have been waiting for a lits with Trainspotting on it, one of my all time favorite movies and i still cringe at the bathroom scene. Maybe we can also do a top 10 disgusting breakfast scenes where it can be number 1 as well.
Now can we get a list with Equilibrium in it?
i was hoping to see a saw scene in this. seriously
oh man, a great one was missed, The Big Lebowski…
WHERES THE MONEY LEBOWSKI!?! WHERES THE MONEY?! WHERES THE MONEY SH@#HEAD!?!
a few moments later, the thug picks up a bowling ball…
“What the F*&k is this?”
The Dudes response “Obviously your’re not a golfer”
and the china man pee’s on his rug, the f*&king rug, it really tied the room together…
lol oh man i love that movie, especially that opening scene
Juggz: the number 1 worst breakfast scene from trainspotting isn’t that one – it is the REAL breakfast scene from the movie where the boy poos in the bed and it ends up over the whole family when they mother pulls the sheets from his hands! That movie is just outstanding in every way.
So – it seems that I might have a few I could have added – tell me what should be on the list and give me a youtube link and I will extend it to top 15
jamie: thats the one i was referring to only after i clicked did i realize i didnt specify
Full Metal Jacket deserves a mention.
American History X had a pretty disturbing bathroom scene.
American History X actually had 2 disturbing br scenes. (the rape scene and the murder scene in the school)
Amy – I can’t believe I forgot that! It is one of my favorite movies!
Rob: yes – embarrassed for forgetting it!
I just watched it last night…it was on FX. It’s still pretty fresh in my memory.
So sad.
hey is #6 owen wilson? lmfao.. oh i feel so ashamed…
if memory serves, its luke wilson, not owen
JFrater: No access to Youtube, but Lebowski and Austin Powers’ scenes (single best thing Tom Arnold ever did) should be in the update.
how bout a courteously flush there pal
What about the shower scene in Psycho?
How about Porky’s? That scene is hilarious!
I posted a link for the Austin Powers Scene above.
How about Psycho’s shower seen ? I shocked it’s not in the list ! It should be 1
I like the bathroom scene from Fear and Loathing were Dr Gonzo was bathing with a head full of acid and a tub of grapefruit rinds in some lovely dark water.I think I even heard a tub thump.
what is with the testicular cancer commercial at the end of the something about mary II scene? didn’t need to see that image
ahhhh, big lebowski. amazing. i’m a little lebowski urban achiever.
Another bathroom scene that stuck in my head is from Desperado, there was a secret room that they had to get to from the bathroom, and the stall that was the entrance to the room was smeared with ***** and the toilet was overflowing. Great way of discouraging any intruders.
evan – i just saw the big lebowski for the first time the other night. i loved it!!
There is also a scene in “The Sweetest Thing” with Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate that is soo funny…
Okay – fixed – and now the top 15
Thanks for pointing out my obvious misses.
Emily: if you loved that – try Fargo – brilliant and hilarious – and starring one of the most amazing and wonderful actresses of all time: Frances McDormand – incredibly beautiful and incredibly talented!
You left out 2001, and The Shining!
Argh! Jim – you are right – is this going to be a top 20 by the end of the night?
Definitely should have Full Metal Jacket, Porky’s, and Fast Times at Ridgemont High – all of those are classics. Not Another Teen Movie and Harold & Kumar both had funny bathroom scenes dealing with hot girls going # 2. Deuce Bigelow, Sweetest Thing, and White Chicks should NOT be on this list because those movies are horrendous.
thats the only clip i could find, very small part of it
heres another funny scene in the bathroom from big lebowski
i commend you for trying to add some obvious omissions, but you still have one left off that has been mentioned…the big lebowski.
the appropriate part begins at about 3:15
#1 was kinda funny (in a gross, toilet diving sorta way) And it was a fitting end to a good list.
How could you not put the bathroom fight from “The Warriors”?
Aww shoot, the scene from Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle isn’t in here!
You forgot Scarface!
Um, i don’t know if this is really a good one, but the FIRST movie i thought of was, i think it was in Ace Ventura, Jim Carey…
“do NOOT go in there”
Not my favorite movie, but i know a lotta people liked it and quoted it for years after
You forgot Scarface! Cool bathroom scene with the Columbians.
You know it’s funny Yikkity, because i think the saying ‘You forgot Scarface’ will ultimately create ‘a little star’, perhaps, in the universe of lists and enter-web verse of early birth inhabitants…((((what that means may be a little bit of stretching out something more simple)))
Copy-write that quote/saying now…in that, only you can say it and all else must pay a fee. ($$$)
I think John Waters, who also makes photos of movies-as art, has a series of celebs peeing (in films).
How about the bathroom scene from The Party, with Peter Sellers ? Totally idiotic, and it goes on and on and on.
I would put the end scene of “Fatal Attraction” on that, or Michelle Pfeiffer’s encounter with her deranged husband in “What Lies Beneath.” And ditto on Jack Nicholson’s encounter with the corpse in “The Shining.”
AndyB123: How about the bathroom scene from The Party, with Peter Sellers ? Totally idiotic, and it goes on and on and on.
I must agree with you there. That scene and movie are fantastic.
Peter Sellers, I LOVE YOU
Lethal Weapon. Danny Glover on the pot with a bomb attached.
Also: Four Brothers.
Never knew what the point was for the bro’s in 4 brothers talking business in the john. Director John Singleton said the scene took all day to shoot!
You forgot SCARFACE.
trainspotting=classic
How could you leave out battle-*****z from Harold & Kumar go to White Castle? That should have been #1 by far!!
Battle *****s from H&K – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QK_JTfHGuck
phubbie: Yeah, I saw it a while ago, and it still makes me laugh. To think that Sellers love interest gunned down Spider Sabich 8 years later, for no apparent reason.
Here are some more scenes -
Copycat. Two scenes.
The Unforgiven. not strictly a “bathroom”, but close enough.
Two movies with Harrison Ford -
Witness, and Frantic.
Dressed to kill, with a sultry Angie Dickinson.
Dog Soldiers, when they run from the werewolves.
Dreamcatcher.
LA Confidential.
FINALLY A CLIP FROM TRAINSPOTTING!!
YESSS!
But uh, yeah, interesting mix of really funny and really disturbing.
I loved that scene from Royal Tenenbaums.
What about “Weird Science”!
aww, it’s so true! how could you leave out Lebowski? that scene at the beginning of the movie was classic.
okay what about the scene from porky’s in the girls’ locker room?
THE shining should be in there, really.
