- Hentez, on 10/12/2007, -0/+59Great list, but why the ***** is it censored.. I hate when people use %# in place of curse words. Why censor yourself?
- spookyttws, on 10/12/2007, -1/+58Anyone else immediately think of Samuel L. Jackson?
- mike81890, on 10/12/2007, -0/+33Its actually Samuel L. Jackson, But the L stands for *****. and if you mention anything about how L doesn't stand for ***** than you will get a lesson beat into you.
- Smaque, on 10/12/2007, -2/+29What no Earl Lee Armie from Full Metal Jacket?
And no Quetin tarintino? hmmm - olego, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2410. Billy Bob Thornton in “Primary Colors”
Thornton may know his way around a stage. But with a lot of attitude and a little Southern charm, Thornton can cuss up a storm just like the good ol’ boys back home. “Primary Colors” may have been a giant dirty bomb, but his %#*$ing in the Woods” allegory made his character the most fun.
9. Jason Statham in “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels”
Take a fast talking Cockney British guy, the voice of a man who smokes four packs of cigarettes a day, throw in some salty language and you’ve got Statham. Just listening to his curse slinging can you help understand how so many soccer riots start in Britain.
8. Jay Mewes AKA Jay in “Jay and Silent Bob Strikes Back”
Kevin Smith wouldn’t have much of a career to speak of without the foul mouth of Silent Bob’s hetero-lifemate, but his cursing makes his performances as the drug dealer Jay something worthy to speak of. His smoky voice and confident swagger make his cursing sound like the cries of a wise old blues singer who speaks his mind and doesn’t care who he offends.
7. Jack Lemmon in “Glengarry Glen Ross”
His earlier movies (my personal favorites are “Mister Roberts” and “The Great Race”) may make him seem to younger generations like the kind old man who lives down the block and hands out hard candy to all the kids in the neighborhood. But underneath that gray hair and checkered golf shirt lies the soul of a very profane man who’s ready to flip off the world and tell them where to stick it. He even the only “mother#*$er” in this group that has a favorite curse word, according to his interview “Inside the Actor’s Studio.” It’s “#*(#sucking mother(#$*#er.”
6. Nick Frost in “Shaun of the Dead”
The “Costello” to Simon Pegg’s “Abbott” may not utter a stream of obscenities like bullets from an AK47. But when he does, he squeezes every last drop of comedy out of it. He can use the “F” word, the “MF” word and even the treacherous, career killing “N” word to punch the audience in the face with the strength of a doped up prizefighter and the audience counters in return a huge roaring laugh.
5. Eric Cartman in “South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut”
We all knew Cartman would have the best and baudiest cursing moments when it came to bringing the TV show to the big screen. But no one ever could have predicted that the fat ass’s dirty, dirty mouth, which up until the movie was only good for destroying Cheesy Poofs and Snacky Cakes, could actually be used as a weapon. There’s not a silencer big enough for this kid.
4. Jeff Bridges in “The Big Lebowski”
Bridges doesn’t get many chances to drop the “F-bomb” in between his various movie roles and voice overs for Duracell commercials. But we would be remiss if we didn’t mention his brilliant performance in one of the Coen Brothers’ brightest and best movies to date. His cursing not only makes the performance funny and real because such a stream of angry curse words would be the last thing you’d expect from a peace loving, “Creedance” listening, weed smoking hippie.
3. Samuel L. Jackson in “Pulp Fiction”
He’s had some better performances earlier in his day, but even a bad movie can be made better by his potty mouth. “Pulp Fiction” and “Snakes on a Plane” might be his most popular performances to date, but they’ve also got some of the most quotable cursing scenes. It’s the only time in history that the word “mother##*$er” could be acceptable in public as long as it was in the phrase by “I’m sick of these mother#%$*ing snakes on this mother*#%$ing plane!”
2. Al Pacino of “Scarface”
If you’re going to curse, you’d better have a strong voice to back it up and no one can make the spittle fly like the Godfather himself. Pacino is to cursing what Picasso is to painting. He throws them around the room from all sides and at all angles and when the dust clears, you have a masterpiece of profanity staring you in the face. If you could capture just one of Pacino’s cursings and put it in a frame, you’d get a check from Sotheby’s auction house that would put you on easy street for the rest of your life.
1. Joe Pesci in “Goodfellas”
But when it comes to big time, no holds barred, balls to the #*($ing wall cursing, there’s only one face to turn to my friend. And even though you may have to look down when you turn to it, expect to be brought down to your knees. Almost every performance Pesci has done were about guys who spoke from their heart and didn’t bother to filter it by the time it came flying out of their mouths. Imagine how much better “Gone Fishin’” would have been if the director let him sling a few “#*#$s” around the room. - johndi, on 10/12/2007, -0/+17I think you meant R. Lee Ermey, but your point is dead on.
- tehbored, on 10/12/2007, -4/+18Hey what about Mark Wahlberg in The Departed? He has a fairly small role, but he manages to get a lot in in the time he's given ;)
- ij00mini, on 10/12/2007, -1/+15Then just say it.
*****.
There. - ButterBuddha, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Samuel L. Jackson is number 3??? This list is ***** *****......
- Plasmatica, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13"***** you, you ***** *****!"
- pixelguru, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12Why leave out R. Lee's wonderful lines of profanity-laced prose?
Private Pyle, I'm gonna give you three seconds...exactly three ***** seconds, to wipe that stupid lookin' grin off your face, or I WILL GOUGE OUT YOUR EYEBALLS AND SKULL-***** YOU!!
You are pukes. You are the lowest form of life on Earth. You are not even human ***** beings. You are nothing more than unorganized grabastic pieces of amphibian *****.
I'll bet you're the kinda guy that would ***** a person in the ass and not even have the goddamn common courtesy to give him a reach-around. I'll be watching you.
GET THE ***** DOWN OFF OF MY OBSTACLE!! NOW!!! - SpaceDreamer, on 10/12/2007, -2/+14I read "cursors", I'm disappointed,
I thought it would be the top 10 prettiest mouse cursors. - neuromancerzero, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11Your the type of man who'd ***** a man up the ass and not even have the common courtesy to give him a reach-around. Only a genius can think of that. And he improvised it on the spot.
- catalysis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11@Derelict267
Probably because of the classic scene..
"I'm funny how? I mean, I'm funny like a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh? I'm here to *****' amuse you? How the ***** am I funny? What the ***** is so funny about me? Tell me, tell me what's funny." - cirelo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C1zGjiqV5cE
- bIuebonics, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10the best drinking game ever is to take a shot of whiskey every time pesci swears in goodfellas :D
- biggychong, on 10/12/2007, -0/+10Damn right. He is a good actor, but he also gets things done and thats why I pray to him.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10#1 is right ***** on. especially about Gone Fishin'.
- wickedawsome, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8I expected him at #1, especially given the title of the article.
- Jemulov, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8***** the ***** *****.
- a7bat, on 10/12/2007, -2/+9And no Dennis Hopper as Frank Booth in Blue Velvet? WTF?!?!!
Frank Booth is the King of F**K! - Boor, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8I believe Cid from FF7 deserves an honorable mention. He may have been censored and he wasn't really a movie character, but man that guy swore in every other sentence.
- joeydoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7"Can I get... any of you *****.. a drink?"
Best use of '*****' ever.... should have put Nick Frost at No.1 - TheMikey, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6What about Steve Martin in 'Planes, Trains, and Automobiles'?
http://youtube.com/watch?v=KEqNhllFx6E - ericnmu, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I was hoping to see Ian McShane. Al Swearengen was awesome, too bad Deadwood wasn't a movie.
- joeydoo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6"frager ragder".... on Home Alone.... that's all I have to say.
- BPShirase, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6"maybe,.....maybe not.....maybe go ***** yourself."
- rompom7, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Why the ***** was this censored?
The kind of person that would get offended by the language is the kind of person that would be smart enough not to read an article with the title "The 10 Greatest Mother*#@$ing Cursers in Movie History".
But then again, there are some retarded political correctness morons out there. - calgone, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Yeah he swears a ton for his short screen time...also what about Boondock Saints? Rocco manages to use the F world like 12 times in one sentence!
- TheLoneWolf071, on 10/12/2007, -2/+7Yet to look at the article. $10 Say it's Samuel ***** Jackson.
- Netrilix, on 10/12/2007, -1/+6Boondock Saints: "What the... how the... How the *****... did you ***** *****... *****!"
- tdawg148, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Woefully inaccurate... Full Metal Jacket and Lt. Erney is missing.
"Do you suck dicks? *****, I bet you could suck a golfball through a garden hose" - crawfishsoul, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Turn your ***** profanity filters on, it makes this thread ***** hilarious to read. Guess the curse.
- Tarl, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Yeah, I was thinking the same thing.
And where is R. Lee Ermey? Some of the lines he had would send some recruits nowadays packing to go home. - Futurejunior, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5"He certainly illustrates the diversity of the word"
- Yaki, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4He was killing Saddam.
- ZombyWoof78, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4How about
"You climb like old people *****" - tdogg241, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Heineken!? ***** that *****! PABST BLUE RIBBON!!!
- dyckdownunder, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Ouch! My virgin ears!
- trogdor282, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3Rocco: *****... What the *****. Who the ***** ***** this *****... How did you two ***** *****... *****!!
Connor: Well, that certainly illustrates the diversity of the word. - inmatarian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Doctor Smith's "Oh *****" from Lost In Space was pretty good too, especially after his speech on not swearing.
- khyberkitsune, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Considering he's #3 on the list, I consider that an insult. Mr. Jackson has the best cursing voice, then Bernie Mac comes next.
BTW - I'm white, so don't think I'm supporting black artists because I'm black. :) I just wish Mr. Jackson and Bernie Mac would make a movie here in Memphis, because that would be the *****. - firedrillduckie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2The Boondock Saints...
I mean, the whole thing. - hoisen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Maybe not the best cursing, but Chevy Chase's blow ups in Vacation and Christmas Vacation need an honorable mention.
Vacation:
Clark - I think you're all ***** in the head. We're ten hours from the ***** fun park and you want to bail out. Well I'll tell you something. This is no longer a vacation. It's a quest. It's a quest for fun. I'm gonna have fun and you're gonna have fun. We're all gonna have so much ***** fun we'll need plastic surgery to remove our godamn smiles. You'll be whistling 'Zip-A-Dee Doo-Dah' out of you're *****! I gotta be crazy! I'm on a pilgrimage to see a moose. Praise Marty Moose! Holy *****!
Chirstmas Vacation:
Clark - Hey. If any of you are looking for any last-minute gift ideas for me, I have one. I'd like Frank Shirley, my boss, right here tonight. I want him brought from his happy holiday slumber over there on Melody Lane with all the other rich people and I want him brought right here, with a big ribbon on his head, and I want to look him straight in the eye and I want to tell him what a cheap, lying, no-good, rotten, four-flushing, low-life, snake-licking, dirt-eating, inbred, overstuffed, ignorant, blood-sucking, dog-kissing, brainless, dickless, hopeless, heartless, fat-ass, bug-eyed, stiff-legged, spotty-lipped, worm-headed sack of monkey ***** he is. Hallelujah. Holy *****. Where's the Tylenol? - rlg420, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2Come on now! Sam L J's wallet said "Bad *****" on it. Little Joe and Al can cuss it up, but they did have the wallet to prove it.
- homsar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2There is no way that Frank Booth as played by Dennis Hopper should be left off this list. Just the vehemence with which he uttered his curse words made him seem truly deranged.
- blapierre, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2This list is worthless without Casino.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3j_B-GhvPgU - crashflow, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2to those who want to understand its popularity and versatility.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XGDpzqs3vYg - moxx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What about...
"Give me the ***** keys, you ***** cocksucking *****"
-Said a couple times in The Usual Suspects...in that lineup scene. - trimsheenapple, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Paul Gleason (RIP)
It's all about the delivery.....

His work in Die Hard was pretty sound too. -
