This list started out as the "best beer movies" list.  After "Strange Brew" and "Young Einstein", the list starts to get really thin.  There is a severe shortage of movies where beer is the central theme.  Much fewer if you are only considering good ones.  Even when you open it up to movies where alcohol is the central theme, you risk placing movies like "Cocktail", "Coyote Ugly" or "Leaving Las Vegas" on the list.  There are very few movies where Beer or Wine is intrinsic to the theme of the movie. (We didn't forget about "Sideways", we just don't like what they did to Merlot!) 

So this list is about fun drunks!  While real life drunks usually are no fun, Hollywood loves to give us drunks we wish we were when we are drunk.  Here's a list of the top movie scenes with funny drunks!

The Legend of Drunken Master (1978)
Considered one of Jackie Chan's most entertaining movies, this cult favorite features a martial artist who must be drunk to be effective.  Jackie Chan's fights are always pure comedic genius, but he takes it one level higher in the final fight scene as a very drunk fighter.  How cool it is to be totally drunk and still kick butt!

Bad News Bears (1976)
Walter Matthau plays an alcoholic coach of a little league team.  His current job is to clean pools, but he makes the kids do it and pays them in beers.  He's horrible to everyone around him, but we still end up liking him.
