"When Ted Met Elaine" from Airplane; the dancing actually does come off quite well despite the sheer lunacy of the situation.

goresnet.. I agree that the bike stunts to "Send Me Angel" were quite awesome.
The crazy dance scene to "Music That You Can Dance To" by Sparks needs to mentioned as well.

So what are some of your favorite randoms?.....out of place?......goofball? cheesy songs??...
I remember a scene with Jon Cryer in "Morgan Stewart's Coming Home", where he discovers he has fallen in love and prances around his home!
And how can you not mention Tom Cruise strutting to Bob Seger in "Risky Business"?

I'm loving the rarities guys! makes me want to watch some movies I haven't seen in awhile........is it funny or what that newer movies don't go into that many random dances as our 80's ones?

There's nothing random about today's movies - doesn't everyone join in whenever the clock gets to seventeen minutes and twelve seconds since the last musical montage? I thought that was compulsory these days......
