There is a montage of him threatening people with it and destroying stuff. He busts the screen on a T.V. and it blows up and the look on Derrick Smalls face as he's sitting on the hotel room floor a few feet from it breaks me up every time.


That's the one. It's more Ian's reaction that makes me laugh though. He gives this little yelp after he blows up the T.V.

Honorable mentions:
-One of Viv's only lines in the movie is on the tour bus playing video games..."Very excitin' this computer magic..."
-The guy who gives the "jazz odyssey" the thumbs-down for an extended period of time.
-"Gimme Some Money" is just hilarious.

I especially like the interview where they talked about the origin of the band:

David St. Hubbins: "So we became The Originals, and we had to change our name, actually."

Nigel Tufnel: "There was another group in the East End called The Originals, and we had to re-name ourselves..."

David St. Hubbins: "New Originals"

Nigel Tufnel: "The New Originals, and then they became..."

David St. Hubbins: "The Regulars. They changed their name back to the regulars, and we thought, we could go back to being The Originals, but what's the point?"

I also love the line, "It's such a fine line, innit, between stupid and clever."

Does anyone have the Spinal Tap Christmas single, "Christmas With The Devil"?
