Here's one, from Godfather II:

Oh wait--there aren't any. Never mind.

Yeah there is, and it's a big one. When Roth's men try to kill Frank Pentangeli in the bar, and one of them says "Michael Corleone says hello" or whatever the line was. This line makes no sense in the movie, and was cited as one of the big flaws in the movie by (some big movie critic, can't remember who it was now)

How about the intro scene for Gonzo & his chicken bitch in The Muppet Movie (1979):



This movie was a classic, and Gonzo's "I'm Going to Go Back There Someday" ruled the soundtrack. Unfortunately, his character was bland and contributed little from what I remember...

OMG, I get it now. Gonzo was the bird who couldn't fly, and that's why he married that old hen. I remember the hot air balloon ride and his plight to become airborne, but that's about it. Nevermind Gonzo downer. This movie ruled.




Agree w/ Wonka & Chocolate Factory, too. Gene Wilder was terrific. I remember the bedridden scenes amused me as a kid, but I find them more disturbing now...
