00:00Welcome to Ms Mojo, and today we're counting down the Sandra Bullock movie and interview
00:10appearances that cemented our fandom.
00:1410.
00:18The Spank Scene, The Heat
00:31This buddy cop comedy is an under-the-radar gem for Sandra Bullock fans.
00:35Playing the high-strung FBI agent Sarah Ashburn, and paired with Melissa McCarthy's Shannon
00:41Mullins, Bullock can really bounce off McCarthy to create some great comedy.
00:45I'll have you know, I dress appropriately.
00:47I like to...
00:48I got it.
00:49I got it.
00:50It's when this, your big flappin' mouth, starts running, and then you put this get-up on top
00:56of it, and it's just a boner killer.
00:59In one scene, you can tell Ashburn's reluctance to let Mullins mess with her clothing is building
01:04up to something.
01:06The Spank's reveal, and their back-and-forth dialogue, gives audience members a moment
01:10to remember.
01:11The scene illustrates how effective Bullock can be as the straight edge in a comedic pairing.
01:17One of her specialities.
01:18No, no, not medically.
01:19Just to...
01:20This keeps it right where it's supposed to be.
01:24You gotta...
01:25You gotta vent that furnace.
01:26Okay?
01:27That's a lot of compression and heat.
01:299.
01:30Holiday Troubles, While You Were Sleeping
01:32Look, it's a great idea, you and Peter.
01:35It's just not obvious to the whole world.
01:37You know what, Jack?
01:38I've had a really lousy Christmas.
01:40You've just managed to kill my New Year's.
01:42If you come back on Easter, you can burn down my apartment.
01:45This Christmas-time rom-com came relatively early in Sandra Bullock's acting career, but
01:49it has some all-time aligns.
01:52When Bullock's character Lucy saves the life of a man named Peter, she's incorrectly identified
01:57as his fiancé.
01:58What do you want from me, Jack?
02:00I want you not to be unhappy.
02:03And what are you, the happiness guru, Jack?
02:05Are you happy?
02:06Because I don't remember you having had a conversation with your father.
02:08However, she starts to fall for Peter's brother, Jack.
02:11We love the sharp and witty one she throws at Jack during a fundamental scene for their
02:16relationship.
02:17She turns the conversation around on him, making us chuckle, but also realize that she
02:21truly cares for him, all in a few sentences.
02:25That's some real acting power.
02:26But you have no idea what it's like to be alone.
02:29Hey, you have Peter.
02:31I don't have anybody.
02:348.
02:35Rock Climbing with Channing Tatum, The Lost City
02:38I should not be doing this.
02:39I'm too old for this.
02:40No, you're not.
02:41You're beautiful.
02:42I didn't say I'm not beautiful.
02:43I said I'm too old to be doing this.
02:45My skill is sitting and thinking and eating when I can't think.
02:49There's plenty of different terms for what's below the belt, some more vulgar than others,
02:54some funnier-sounding than others.
02:56When Channing Tatum's character in The Lost City is forced to get up close and personal
03:00in Bullock's character's private area as they're rock climbing, her reaction is priceless.
03:05Do you smell that?
03:06Smell what?
03:08I smell something.
03:09Is it a predator?
03:10What is it?
03:11A downward cascading fire?
03:12No, you gotta smell a little deeper.
03:13I don't smell anything.
03:14The physical comedy in the scene combined with Bullock's line delivery make for a laugh-out-loud
03:19moment.
03:20The camera angles and panting noises also contribute to this humorous scene.
03:24All in all, you really can't watch The Lost City without coming away with an appreciation
03:28for the actress's comedy chops.
03:30What are you doing?
03:31Don't do that.
03:32Get out of there.
03:33Come on.
03:34No, no, no.
03:35Don't flex.
03:36Keep the hands moving.
03:37Oh, God.
03:38Oh, God.
03:39You're doing great.
03:40You're doing great.
03:41Sorry about the scratchy haircut.
03:42Number 7.
03:43The Exotic Cheese Story.
03:44Interview
03:45What's the most exotic adventure you have gone on?
03:47Daniel.
03:48I don't know.
03:49I was always just filming.
03:50I was always just doing a film.
03:55Think about an exotic adventure you've gone on or you'd like to go on.
03:59There's a lot of choices.
04:00In a discussion amongst the Lost City cast members, the film's leads are asked to share
04:05the most exotic adventures they've been on.
04:07Are you sweaty?
04:08Yes.
04:09I was sort of glistening and sweaty, so that helped.
04:10I looked pretty rough.
04:11Sweaty.
04:12Sweaty.
04:13Yeah.
04:14It's just nice listening to him speak.
04:15It is really nice.
04:16I feel like I need a books-on-tape by Daniel for Sandy.
04:18Daniel Radcliffe tells a story about a jungle, Channing Tatum brings up a glacier in Iceland,
04:24and Bullock decides to go her own route.
04:26This response really showcases Bullock's likable personality and sense of humor.
04:31She comes across as a genuine fan of the simple things in life.
04:34Of course, it's also relatable how much she loves cheese, especially the exotic ones.
04:40The cheese was based on my real life.
04:41The jumpsuit was based on my real life.
04:44Many things in this film were based on my real life.
04:45I love it.
04:46So, yeah.
04:47So, last night in bed with my cheese.
04:48Was it exotic cheese?
04:49What kind of cheese was it?
04:50No.
04:51It was Tillamoof.
04:52It's from Portland.
04:53Number six.
04:54The Channing Tatum roast.
04:56Interview.
04:57You know, the thing about Chan, which I think we're going to see more and more of, he's
05:02amazing when he has very little time on screen.
05:06Bullock knows how to troll.
05:08She showed that during a co-star test with Channing Tatum.
05:11Her serious yet endearing tone and overall demeanor make for a well-executed roast.
05:16Tatum even looks like he knew it was coming in a way, as he laughs it off and then proceeds
05:21to go along with the joke.
05:23People are going to want to see him less and less on screen.
05:26If you give me an arc, a full arc, I'm definitely going to ruin it.
05:29Yeah, but you can't give him a lot of things to say either.
05:31If I parachute in real quick and then get out before I mess it up, I'm great.
05:36Still, Bullock's commitment to the deadpan bit is just too funny.
05:40This is one of many instances in which the Academy Award winner demonstrates that she'd
05:45be a super funny person to hang out with, because she knows how to joke around and doesn't
05:50take life too seriously.
05:51I don't know if you guys have seen Free Guy.
05:53He is so effing funny.
05:56Ryan Reynolds has.
05:57And he's absolutely brilliant.
05:58Ryan Reynolds really was wanted for this part, and one, he wasn't available, and two, I had
06:03to ask him.
06:04He wasn't available, so we got second best.
06:05Number 5.
06:06Walking Piano Chopsticks.
06:07The Jonathan Ross Show.
06:08It actually works.
06:09Yeah, it works.
06:10Hold on.
06:11Oh, wow.
06:18Whether or not you've tried a walking piano before, you've got to admit, Bullock makes
06:23it look pretty fun.
06:25Having an appearance on the Jonathan Ross Show, Sandra Bullock takes to the keys with
06:28Tom Hanks.
06:29Sandra Bullock, ladies and gentlemen.
06:30Because you know a bit of piano, don't you?
06:31I know a little bit.
06:32OK, let's see if we can get something going here.
06:33All right.
06:34Well, now we can do chopsticks, but maybe not in your heels, eh?
06:40Oh, I can do chopsticks in my heels.
06:43Even in the presence of an expert, Bullock's charm shines during the impromptu performance.
06:47And rest assured, she can do it in heels.
06:50Her smile, animated gestures, and the energy she exudes are infectious.
06:55The moment really showcases her charming personality and willingness to be a little silly just
07:00for fun.
07:01We'd love to hop around with her and Hanks.
07:03Ready?
07:04Ready?
07:05And.
07:06I'm not doing that last one.
07:13Number 4.
07:14Her favorite minion.
07:15Interview.
07:16Because I wanted to abuse them.
07:18I wanted someone to be able to take them down, and I thought it could be me.
07:21I was wrong.
07:22How could you choose?
07:23In a very Sandra Bullock way, the movie star gave a hilarious response to a question about
07:28her favorite minion.
07:29Comparing choosing a favorite minion to choosing a favorite child is super witty on Bullock's
07:34part.
07:35You know what?
07:36They're innocent.
07:37Nothing they do is malicious.
07:38It's always out of naivete that someone inadvertently gets killed.
07:41So there's just, and everyone understands them.
07:44It doesn't matter what the language is.
07:46Her sharp humor is an admirable trait that she has displayed on numerous occasions.
07:51It's the word choice here that enriches the comedic flavor of the response.
07:55Besides the funny comparison, her insistence that you never, ever should pick a favorite
07:59minion suggests maybe she's thought about this before.
08:03And what a sweet sentiment she gives about every minion's uniqueness.
08:06Very respectful to the minion community.
08:08The minions can always make you laugh.
08:11No matter how highbrow you might think you are, they'll take you down a notch and bring
08:15you to the same level that we're at.
08:17Number 3.
08:18The Burger Craving.
08:19Interview.
08:20Sometimes, a particular craving just pops into your head and sticks around, even at
08:24a seemingly arbitrary moment.
08:26Well, at the Vanity Fair Oscar party, Bullock was candid about what she was craving.
08:31It might not have been the response that the interviewer was expecting, but it was probably
08:35a much more entertaining answer.
08:37Gabby, I just, that girl has my heart.
08:41Now she pipes up.
08:44This is such a lovable Sandra Bullock moment because of her honesty and sense of humor.
08:48Dressed to the nines and all glammed up.
08:50Who can blame her for looking most forward to a burger?
08:53It's a very relatable craving, but the fact that she let it be known encapsulates her
08:58genuine outgoing personality.
09:00I pulled it together, because I remember she always said to me when I was younger, she
09:03goes, if you ever get an award, I don't want you to cry.
09:06And I was like, when would I get an award, first of all?
09:09Number 2.
09:10The Get Low Scene.
09:11The Proposal.
09:12I see you are a curious one.
09:15Come, see how I give thanks to Mother Earth.
09:18You know, actually, I'm not that curious.
09:21Margaret's hate might be an uptight, demanding individual, but different layers of her character
09:25are revealed as the plot of The Proposal progresses.
09:29Sandra Bullock leans into the comedy in this rom-com, acting opposite Ryan Reynolds, who
09:34plays her assistant.
09:35After traveling to his hometown, Margaret stumbles upon his grandma doing some kind
09:39of ritual in the woods.
09:41Look around you.
09:42Mother Earth has provided all this, just as she brought you and Andrew together to be
09:48joined.
09:49Oh.
09:50We must give thanks.
09:51Things take a turn in a hysterical way.
09:54Grandma Annie might have been initially taken aback by Margaret's rapping, and Reynolds'
09:58character appears just as surprised as us audience members.
10:03The humorous moment showed us a new side of Bullock's character and allowed the actress
10:07to flex her comedic chops.
10:08Lucy, you get low, you scared, you scared, drop your ass to the floor, you scared, you
10:13scared.
10:14Before we unveil our top pick, here are a few honorable mentions.
10:17Matched his meat.
10:18Demolition Man.
10:19Even when the saying's wrong, she's got the charm.
10:22Simon Phoenix knows he has some competition.
10:26He's finally matched his meat.
10:28You really licked his ass.
10:31That's met his match and kicked, kicked his ass.
10:35Met?
10:36Met his match and kicked his ass.
10:37The most selfish human being on the planet.
10:40Two weeks notice.
10:41Her character is brutally honest, but gets a fair rebuttal.
10:45George, I think you're the most selfish human being on the planet.
10:48That's just silly.
10:49Have you met everyone on the planet?
10:51Goodbye George.
10:52The revoked license.
10:54Speed.
10:55Who needs a license when you're caught in a rigged bus chase?
10:58I should probably tell you that I'm taking the bus because I have my driver's license
11:01revoked.
11:03What for?
11:04Speeding.
11:05A level of stupidity.
11:07The Late Late Show with James Corden.
11:09Bullock shows her charming ability to poke fun at herself.
11:12There's just a level of stupidity that we feel comfortable living in.
11:16I think I said something incredibly dumb and then we both sort of locked eyes and we were
11:21like, ooh.
11:22I know, right?
11:23We're both very stupid.
11:25Her parents were singers.
11:26The Kelly Clarkson Show.
11:28Bullock brings out some dark humor.
11:30So you know they say it skips a genre.
11:31My parents were opera singers.
11:32I was going to say your parents were singers.
11:33I cannot sing at all.
11:34My parents were singers.
11:35They're both dead.
11:36I'm okay with that.
11:37But they were singers though.
11:38Okay, but that's cool.
11:39Wait, you don't sing?
11:40That they're dead?
11:41No, that they're singers.

11:57Number 1.
11:58The Glide.
11:59Miscongeniality.
12:00I haven't seen a walk like that since Jurassic Park.
12:03Yeah, well, you know what?
12:04It's been working really well for me for the past 30 years, alright?
12:07There's a host of moments to pick out that made us love Sandra Bullock through her performance
12:12as Gracie Hart in Miscongeniality.
12:15There's the relatable, don't mess with me makeover scene.
12:18There's the playful, you want to kiss me scene, but her lessons in walking like a pageant
12:22queen take the cake.
12:24The scene is Bullock at the top of her charms.
12:27Don't look down.
12:28Don't look down.
12:29Look, don't look down.
12:30Look up.
12:31Your chin should always be parallel to the floor.
12:34To be fair to her, that looks like a glide, and her comment after Michael Caine's Victor
12:39Melling shows her how it's done is classic.
12:42To top off this comedic gem of a scene, she yells at a taxi driver who almost hits her,
12:47and then continues on her gliding path.
12:50Stop.
12:51Stop.
12:52Stop.
12:53Stop.
12:54Stop.
12:55Stop.
12:56Stop.
12:57Stop.
12:58Stop.
12:59Stop.
13:00Stop.
13:01Stop.
13:02Stop.
13:03That's the kind of behavior our society needs.
13:06That would be harsher punishment for parole violators, Stan.
