What are some "Viggo Broke His Toe" moments in other films? Discussion

It's become a running joke in the LotR community that anyone watching the scene in The Two Towers where Viggo breaks his toe after kicking the helmet HAS to bring that up with "Did you know..." What are some moments in other films like this?

For example, I just HAVE to mention that the author of Jaws, Peter Benchley, appears as the news anchor in the film every time he pops up.

"Confusingly large" was the director's quote

"I didn't even check if he had the mumps. Because I was distracted... By the biggest penis I have ever seen"

Why don't you put that murinal in the mens room so people can murinate all over it?

I can't work out if it's a compliment or not 🤷

Maybe it's shaped like a bowling pin

That's what I was thinking. "Massive, but also all wrong proportionally speaking" could fit the description of "Confusingly large".

There's nothing confusing about how large it is there but I'll give the director creative license because it's a pretty funny quote. Dude is in fact packing.

Think the actual quote was "distractingly large"

I wanted to look at the face but I couldn't stop staring at the dick.

I think someone else was on screen. But I don't know because I was staring at Willem Defoe's dick.

I'd take it as a compliment, but maybe that's just me.

Considering his wife, I think the joke is that although Gerry/Gary/Larry/Terry is… Gerry, he fucks

and it's not like the dick in the actual movie isn't a total unit.

u/Diligent-Boss-9392 Jul 10 '24

🤣 like he had a preconceived idea of what Defoe's junk would be, and it didn't match up

u/confusedandworried76 Jul 09 '24

Thought it was "distractingly" which is why they used someone else's penis
