I’ve been thinking about starting this thread for awhile now. I have always enjoyed seeing all the different foods in my favorite films. Show me all your fav movie scenes that included your fav meals, it can be from a classic movie or a terrible movie. I don’t care let’s just discuss Food in Movies.
I will kick things off from the prison scene in Goodfellas.
however, this scene is marvelous, and after reading shatner's book about the movies, it's even better...it was squid dyed blue and no one was eating it, so nick meyer started paying them $20 in cash to eat during each take, so the footage was better, and most still wouldnt touch it, but shatner fucking cleaned meyer out :-)

The top pic looks like a Star Wars Chex Mix, they could have made a killing off that stuff in the stores don’t you think?
They have this stuff called squid ink that they cook with on the food network, I wonder if that’s the same stuff? This is great I love back stories like this. [Reply]
Ya noh, . . . ah work onma heah a long time, . . . and ya hiddit.
I'm a little young to speak from experience, but is SNF the first movie that made a point of detailing the lives of teens obsessed with making the scene and making an impression as an ethos.
The whole thing that endures to this day about fly duds and new kicks and putting moves on the ladies and making other men jealous?
Seems like the first to really delve into an ethos that has been with us ever sense. [Reply]

It was a little before my time too but in my experience a lot of 90s kids like me used to watch all the classics from the 70s and 80s. I really think you’re onto something there, that could explain the resurgence of 70s nostalgia in the 90s with films like Boogie Nights and The Brady Bunch etc. It began a fad that inspired the generations to follow. Heck I remember my buddy listening to the SNF soundtrack the entire summer. The movie definitely made a huge impact on teens. Every generation of youth can relate to wanting to be hip and cool.
