Awesome / Beavis and Butt-Head Do America

Go To

  • The opening dream sequences, where the duo are fighting each other as giants.
  • That orbital shot of the duo dancing in the casino. For the briefest of moments, Beavis and Butt-Head actually got to look cool.
  • The Mushroom Samba sequence in the desert, animated by none other than Rob Zombie.
  • Beavis's "We're never gonna score" speech, while sad and funny, has Oscar written all over it.
    Beavis: We can't leave! We never met that chick... Dammit, we were supposed to get some!
    Butt-Head: Uh huh huh... Settle down, Beavis.
    Beavis: No!! I won't settle down! Not this time! Dammit, this always happens! I think I'm gonna score and then I never score! It's not fair! We've traveled a... um... um... uh... a hundred miles, because we thought we were gonna score! But now it's not gonna happen! Dammit!
    Bus Driver: Hey, buddy! Sit down!
    Beavis: SHUT UP, ASSWIPE! I'm sick and tired of this! We're never gonna score! It's just not gonna happen! We're just gonna get old, like these people — but they've probably scored!
    Bus Driver: Hey, I'm warning you! Sit down!
    Beavis: It's like, this chick's a slut! And look at this guy! He's old! But he's probably scored a million times!
    Old Guy: Ohhh-ho, yeah.
    Beavis: But not us! We're never gonna score! We're never gonna score! We're NEVER GONNA SCORE!
    Bus Driver: All right, that's it, numbnuts!!! [gets in a fight with Beavis] You want some more, you little punk?!
    Beavis: I'll kick your ass!
    • Bonus points for the bus driver being voiced by famed indie film director Richard Linklater.
  • The scene where Butt-Head has the audacity to make a pass at Chelsea Clinton ("I noticed you have braces. I have braces too. Uh huh huh huh.") She responds by hurling Butt-Head through the second-floor window. Damn!
  • Butt-Head, plus Beavis by proxy, unwittingly becomes a national hero. Butt-Head catches the X-5 unit during a scuffle between ATF agents and Mr. Anderson, and while everyone recoils in horror, Butt-Head merely stares at his hand completely befuddled. Then he hands the unit to Agent Fleming with a nonchalant "Uh..... here you go." That's right, Butt-Head's apathy and stupidity saved America, and he and Beavis get to meet the President. Not bad for two guys just looking for a TV.
  • Speaking of which, Beavis and Butt-Head finally find their TV right before the movie ends.
