50 Nastiest Movie Arguments

Rebel Without A Cause (1955)

The Nasty Argument: The title r💙eckons Jim Stark (James Dean) doesn't need a reason for h💯is wild behaviour. But he gives one anyway, snapping at prim parents Jim Backus and Ann Doran that "you're tearing me apart!"

Make-Up Or Break-Up: 🐟He's a teenaꦏger, so it's probably just a phase... even though it takes the death of his best friend Plato (Sal Mineo) to provoke the reconciliation.

Fargo (1996)

The Nasty Argument: Terrible car salesma🤡n Jerry Lundegaard (William H. Macy) tries to rip off a customer by selling him optional extra Truecoat as a done de🥀al, forcing the innocent man to use a word he's clearly unused to saying - "you're a bald-faced liar. A…fucking liar."

Make-Up Or Break-Up: Jerry wins the battle, but losesꦅ the🌺 war. It'll take more than one sale of Truecoat to get him out of his financial hole.

Step Brothers (2008)

The Nasty Argument: When their parents get together, immature 40-somethings Brennan Huff (Will Ferrell) and Dale Doback (John C. Reilly) are forced to live together. Cue a passive/aggressive spat at the dinner table over Fancy Sauce that soon escalates into Brennan ruꩵbbing his tes🐬ticles over Dale's prized drum kit.

Make-Up Or Break-Up: They're clearly maꦿde for each other. They just don't know it yet.

The Hill (1965)

The Nasty Argument: As events in a British military detention centre in the Afric💙an desert spiral out of control, prisoner Joe Roberts (Sean Connery) rounds on the camp's de-facto boss, RSM Wilson (Harry Wilson) for supporting his sadistic assistant Williams (Ian Hendry): "Oh, you crazy bastard! You'd prop up dead men and inspect them if you was ordered to!"

Make-Up Or Break-Up: Total meltdown as the argument explodes outwards, with fellow officers trying to report sadistic Williams🐼 while 🐬Roberts' cellmates take more drastic measures.

Death Becomes Her (1992)

The Nasty Argument: Madeline Ashton (Mer🍎yl Streep) ꦬberates weak-willed husband Ernest Menville (Bruce Willis) for his lack of prowess: "tragic, flaccid clown. You're not even a man anymore and I need a man!"

Make-Up Or Break-Up: Ernest thinks it🥀's over after pushing her dow🗹n the stairs. Little does he know she's immortal.

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962)

The Nasty Argument: When Liberty Valance (Lee Marvin) trips up Ransom Stoddard (James ᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚStewart), Tom Doniphon (John Wayne) steps in to deal with him. But Ransom isn't done.

Make-Up Or Break-Up: This triangle will u𝔉ltimately repeat with fatal consequences - but who is the man who shot Liberty Valance?

Midnight Run (1988)

The Nasty Argument: The relationship between J🏅ack Walsh (Robert De Niro) and quarry Jonathan Mardukas (Charles Grodin) has been shaky from the start, so imagine the disgruntlement when each man discovers the other is a lying son of a bitch: "you didn't know I was lying to you when you lied to me down by the river. So as far as you knew, you lied to me first!"

Make-Up Or Break-Up: Straight cop Jack and modern day Robin Hood Jo🍷nathan are on the same side, really. They just gotta figure that out.

Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me (1999)

The Nasty Argument: Dr Evil (Mike Myers) doesn't want to listen to goody-two-shoes son Scott (Seth Green) any more, so cuts him short with endless variations o🍌n the phrase "Zip it." Highlight: "would you like to🔯 have a suckle of my zipple?"

Make-Up Or Break-Up: Scott attempts to go bad in the next movie, Austin Powers in Goldmember , only to find 💎that dad is going straight. Poor guy can't win.

Toy Story (1995)

The Nasty Argument: Accidentally abandoned by owner Andy, Woody (Tom Hanks) rounds on the oblivio🎃us Buzz Lightyear (Tim Allen), who still thinks he's a real space ranger. "You are a toy! You're a child's plaything!" Buzz calmly replies,🐲 "you are a sad, strange little man, and you have my pity."

Make-Up Or Break-Up: A couple of nights in the house of sadistic neighbour Sid is enough to bring꧅ Buzz to his senses, and for Woody to realise he's got a friend in Buzz.

A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)

The Nasty Argument: Stanley Kowalski (Marlon Brando) lays down the law for wife Stella (Kim Hunter) and sister-in-law Blanche Duboi🅷s (Vivien Leigh), clearing his plates by smashing things and announcing, "every man's a king and I'm the King around here, and don't you forget it."

Make-Up Or Break-Up: Blanche suffers a mental bꦏreakdown after being raped by Stanley, but Stella has had enough and refuses to let her๊ husband back (although that's not the case in the original play).
