"I could use me some more of that potted meat, if ye got any extry."

Billy Bob said in the commentary. It took forever to shoot this scene because he and John kept laughing.

I love how it appears Karl isn’t really listening, but he understands every word.

"You were taught that weren't you?" Yeah, by the same kid he's trying to protect, lol.

John Ritter was the most underated actor. what a great scene, and a great movie.

The casting of John Ritter and Dwight yoakum was genius.

John Ritter was great, never got the roles he deserved on the silver screen

Billy Bob got nominated for an Oscar for playing Carl, John Ritter should have got a nomination for supporting actor as well.

John Ritter was perfect for this role. Nobody even suspects him as the murder mastermind of the movie, but he masterfully uses Karl as his weapon of choice.

Vaughan handled that "not funny haha funny queer" moment pretty nicely.

All of the casting in this picture was spot-on perfect. This scene is a reminder that the Jon Ritter cast is as terrific as the rest of them.

"I could use six to eight cans of that potted meat if ye got any extry". Great line.

John Ritter is brilliant in this scene .. rip

I keep forgetting these were the same men that played Bad Santa and his squirrelly boss!

Vaughn is pouring his heart out to Karl, but all that's going on in Karl's mind is mustard, french fried potaters, potted meat, peckers, queers and lawnmower blades.

Dwight Yoakam and John Ritter played the shit out of their characters.

"Not haha funny queer" LMFAO I lose it every time when Carl says that!

John Ritter was an excellent actor, never disliked anything I saw him in.

this movie made me laugh for all the wrong reasons

RIP John Ritter.. Superior actor!

Billy Bob Thornton, Dwight Yocum, and other actors that starred in this movie did a round table discussion and brought up John Ritter (he passed before the discussion) and it was so endearing to hear them talk about him and his talented magic he brought to the set and movie. RIP John Ritter !!!!

The acting in this scene and whole movie is second to none. Even though Karl is just sitting there... the way he handles things and never looks up and just listens... as if he isn't listening. And JR is so great in this as well.

RIP, John; you should have had a bigger career. This was one of his best roles, IMO...

The hardest thing about playing Carl was having to eat fries with mustard....

I swear to god that “Mmhmm” gets me EVERY fucking time 😂

All I can think of when I see John Ritter is him talking to Bernie Mac in Bad Santa going “aaaand he said to her, you’re not going to...S.H.I.T right...for...a month”

R.I.P John Ritter

CARL IS STILL 100 TIMES SMARTER THAN A DEMOCRAT

"I wouldn't ever hurt THEM" lmao he's actually so smart

Without question John Ritter was an incredible actor. I love this movie. It is a work of art.

" Lemme think-mmm..."

God I love this movie! Every scene was so well written and executed by these fine actors.

So many good performances in this movie...John & Billy Bob were amazing

What an incredible scene this may be the greatest piece of acting I've ever seen lmao

My favorite movie of all time.

It just ages so well with time. Like Chateau Margaux

"..maybe YOU tried suicide"--BRILLIANT writing! tho' "talkin to/about Carl" he's really talkin about himself i.e "he tried suicide". ...and Ritter hit that dialogue/role outta the park! "we're allot alike ..not physically..or mentally but ...emotionally" lol Brilliant!

John Ritter is flawless here.

phenominal movie almost feels like a cohen bros movie hats off to BBThorton

John Ritter has the perfect asmr voice. Rip one of my favorite actors.

John Ritter here trying to explain who he is to someone who doesn't judge anyone is so great. He goes on and on because Carl is listening, but ultimately he's having this conversation to ensure those he loves are not threatened. He wants to protect them, and is straightforward about it. But Carl's silence (and simple disinterest in what doesn't interest him) allows him to vent. It's a great quiet scene. I admire how Ritter's character Vaughn, however disarmed, comes around to his point: don't hurt my family. It perfectly echoes the scene later when Carl tells Vaughn to take care of the boy. So beautiful.

I always liked that last sip of soda Vaughn took.

best movie ever😆

R.I.P JACK TRIPPER.

This is the best thing BBT will ever do!

50 people voted dislike?!? I own this movie and all did great performances in this movie. John Ritter was wonderful! Actually, my favorite show of all time is Three's Company. Love John Ritter! 💕💕💕

I wonder how good french fries,potted meat, and mustard all together would be on a biscuit?

" Not funny haha, funny queer" Karl Childers 😂

John Ritter was brilliant in this role. RIP.

Johns best dramatic role

"I may even be psychic....you seem like a thinker...deep thought...what are you thinking right now?"

That town definitely needed a good barber

LOL maybe even Psychic hahaha

I like the way you talk

I have heared it said that way yes sir

Mr Roper was right about Jack wasn't he

Both brilliant...RIP John.

Karl blinked his eyes like shut up I’m not listening I’m eating good 😂😂😂 uhm hmm

Shout out to Booker T & The MGs for recording that classic tune in the background.

Proverbs 17:28 Even a fool, when he keeps silent, is considered wise; When he closes his lips, he is considered prudent.

What a great scene!! Uh huh!

0:17 Sounds like Billy almost was gonna mess up his line

This has to be the most quotable movie of all time.

I miss John Ritter very much.

the bug on the window though

If you watch this with Billy Bob's commentary, he said it took them half a day to shoot this scene because they couldn't stop laughing.

I had forgotten how funny this movie really was.....

Carl was actually sending some innuendo with that "potted meat" line

This was such a good movie 😌

Karl wastes no time grabbing that mustard for his taters lol, you can tell he has been poor his whole life by how he has leaned how to have his favorite meals with just poor man’s foods

This is like "Being There." I imagine that's not a particularly original thought :D

Potted meat, that is as deep as i think.

the way this was filmed is brilliant. ✨

. I love the whole scene in the restaurant. Old country setting with a big fat guy eating his slop while Carl is talking all stupid.

Adamthewoo's daily vlog number 1700 has sent me here.

carl.is cool man...he an awesome dude

I've never seen a bottle of mustard on a restaurant table.

If ya got any extry

The biggest question is why is mustard the only condiment there?

John Ritter was fucking hilarious... maybe he wasn't meant to be. But he was.

Best comedy performance of John Ritter that I like him in is Problem Child

I love how carl is not lisrening at all

A brilliant movie. THERE

You got any French fried taters in there? I'll take the big ens

The side angle is Jason’s twin. RIP John.

3:04 *Is the exact moment Karl's "New Path" opened up and he started walking on*

he should have told Carl that's a shake and given him a spoon or traded it in for a soder

I've heard it said that away yes sir mmhu 😂

I miss John Ritter. Three's Company was awesome.

jesus, john ritter looks almost like scott thompson from kids in the hall in this movie...

Vaughn was only hanging out with Karl to get at his potted meat.

John Ritter is the perfect actor for this type of role since he just naturally has that feminine sounding voice when he talks I mean even in threes company he was pretending to be gay so he could live with 2 women and the landlord was easily convinced just by how John Ritter Carry’s himself even tho he was actually a ladies man in the show

1:14 Carl’s straw is defective 😭

Karl is a good listener and he follows thru to people's conversations.

I never cared for John Ritter's comedy, but near the end of his too short life he was becoming a truly fine dramatic actor.

I wonder if he did this voice with Angelina at the night times

I just cry every time I hear Billy Bob say "queer". Him saying it makes me ugly laugh

Impossible to find this movie in full length to watch online. Gotta buy the dvd on eBay. Very odd.

John Ritters very best acting role.

2:31 I heard it said that way and the look on his face, you can tell if he knew it was the little boy it wouldve crushed him
