Blooper Reels

You know how sometimes movies will include blooper reels filled the actors messing up or forgetting their lines? Or how sometimes TV shows do the same thing at the end of an episode? I'm I the only one who likes to watch them?

This thread is dedicated to the best of them. For starters, how about Star Wars: Episode I bloopers! It even has Yoda forgetting his lines!

Some of the dubs for animes have them, too. This is the one for the English dub of Berserk.

I hope someone besides me can appreciate this.

This one's my favorite in the series, though. The singing is...lovely.

Holy crap, these things were my childhood. I still love 'em to this day. <3

How about these ones for Ouran High School Host Club? (The dub)

...there are actually a lot more where that came from, and a simple search for "Ouran bloopers" will get you right to them. :P

Do we need to post videos here?

I don't enjoy blooper reels as much as I used to, because they usually seem to boil down to "somebody flubbed a line" or "something broke."

The funny ones are the ones where the actors have an in-character reaction, or the cast and crew decided to just play around. Occasionally there are screw-ups that are funny.

Some examples from the Back to the Future gag reel: Michael J. Fox gets into the car and the door handle falls off isn't funny. "Michael is about to find out we put reel alcohol in the prop bottle" isn't funny, but mainly because you need to be filled in on the prank. However, the one where the window won't stay open, so he tosses his gear through and jumps out instead of just asking for a cut is hilarious.

In the second category, again from Back to the Future, the scene where Fox and Lloyd do an alternate version of the "She's Cheating" deleted scene is worth watching that deleted scene. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy has the "Really Deleted Scenes" section with "Do Panic" and "Arthur Escapes."

An example of the rare flubbed line that was funny is in the Doctor Who series 5 outtakes at 3:50, when Matt Smith completely doesn't realize he's said complete nonsense.

IJAM; Pixar's blooper reels :3

Aww, I wanted to see that Dr Who one.. but you duped it into being 'Do panic'

All the Star Trek TOS bloopers where the actors strode confidently into doors that did not open still make me laugh.

i. hear. a. sound.

This is the reason I started liking Steve Blum.

The Princess Tutu dub bloopers are a great example of the "staying in character" (well, sort of) kind:
