*BANG!*
The scene: Indie confronts a man in black with a sword. After the man shows Indie his sword, he pulls out his gun and shoots him once. The four-time Oscar-winning “Raiders of the Lost Ark” also featured Harrison Ford as Indie.
In this particular scene, Ford was only able to work for a few minutes at a time, so they had to film the scene in one single cut. Ford revealed, “The poor guy was a wonderful British stuntman who had practiced his sword skills for months in order to do this job, and was quite surprised by the idea that we would dispatch him in 5 minutes!”
Blazing Saddles
"You know... morons."
The scene: The Waco Kid is comforting Bart after the townspeople told him how much they hate him. “Blazing Saddles” was released almost 5 decades ago and is still thought of as one of the best comedies ever made.
The movie is a classic comedy with spoofy and bawdy language and a lot of inappropriate innuendo. And once more, Gene Wilder is back again on this list with another famous unscripted one-liner. After saying this, he adds, “You’ve got to remember that these are just simple farmers. These are people of the land. The common clay of the new West.”
Indiana Jones And The Last Crusade
"She talks in her sleep."
The scene: Elsa, played by Alison Doody, has just betrayed Indie, who was played by none other than Harrison Ford. Indie and his father, Professor Henry Jones, are being held captive by the Nazis. The Oscar-winning “Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade” came out in 1989.
This line was completely made up on the spot, and the directors loved it so much that it made it to the final cut. Sean Connery, who portrayed the main character’s father, gave a brilliant improvisation that caused them to cut the scene because everyone broke out in laughter.
The Warriors
"Warriors, come out to plaaa-aaaay!"
The scene: Luther taunts and mocks the players from the comfort of his car. “The Warriors” came out in 1979 and has been celebrated for brilliantly showcasing the peculiarity of street gang warfare.
Even though this movie did not do as well in the box office as they hoped, nobody will ever forget about David Patrick Kelly’s iconic performance in the car! And the lines were completely unscripted! It may not have done so well in terms of awards and recognition, but it did get raging reviews from audiences, as it got an 88% audience review on the Rotten Tomatoes website.
Ghostbusters
"OK, who brought the dog?"
The scene: Louis hosts a party at his apartment when he invites a couple to talk to them about their financial affairs. Then, he accidentally throws his coat on a monster dog in his bedroom. In this classic 1984 “Ghostbusters” film, Rick Moranis played little Louis, the nerdy accountant.
The movie featured some big names like Bill Murray (once again), Harold Ramis, and Sigourney Weaver. The director said there was a whole script for this film, but they just let Rick improvise the entire thing because of how funny his lines were. He even got his name mentioned on the writing credits.
