Most Unnecessary Scene In A Film?

 So what's the one scene from a film that you saw that served no propose to the plot of the film?
 
For me, it has to be this one scene from the film Colors. 
 
The plot of the film is that it's about two cops roaming around the streets of South Central L.A and interacting with it's inhabitants. The plot goes deeper than that but I don't want to go too much into it. 
 
The scene I'm about to show you serves no propose to the plot of the film, it doesn't even involve characters whom are key elements to the story. 
 

No purpose to the plot, or no purpose to the theme, or the film itself?  I mean, some movies are full of random images that still fit the feeling it's trying to convey, even if it doesn't fit the plot. 

One thing that immediately comes to mind is the scene in Spider Man 2 where the neighbor girl gives Peter a piece of cake. It literally has no bearing on the plot, nor do we get anything at all from that scene. You learn that there's a kinda fugly girl that likes Peter, and that Peter likes to eat cake. That's it.

There was one particular art house film, French maybe, about romance, and in one seen two people are talking in a cafe, while outside several elephants walk past. No explanation, there wasn't a circus, just elephants walking past.

I thought that the 'Boy Kirk scene' in the 2009 Star Trek movie was pointless as hell...
 I'm guessing it's meant to show that Kirk as a character is a kind of Risk taker, but then in the next scene we see Kirk having a fight in a bar, so the previous Scene is pointless >_>.

I liked the cake girl in Spiderman 2. She seemed like she had a sweet crush on Peter and her coming with some cake to cheer him up when he felt like shit was a nice moment.
Especially since Mary Jane was such an insufferable cunt

Being John Malkovich is full of scenes that seem to serve no purpose, but I guess that's the point and I kind of love it for it's inaneness.

Midichlorians .... that scene singlehandedly destroyed the "force"-mythos of the SW universe.

The sex scene in 300 is the most useless and unnecessary thing I've ever suffered through. I would also like to include every scene in American Psycho 2 that did not involve William Shatner.

I think I found it, the scene with Natalie Portman from "Leon - The Professional", it is still one of my favourite movies of all time though. For those who havn't seen the film, Leon is training Mathilda (Natalie) to become a hitman and then this scene appears, totally pointless but still rather funny.

Transformers 2. 
 
All of it.

" @CptBedlam: None of those things require that scene to be explained though, you could take out that scene and still know all of those things. "

The Gambarelli/Gambetti string of missions in GTA4

" @CptBedlam: I don't think so, you only feel those things because you've scene all of the other scenes. Someone watching that scene alone without the rest of the movie would understand none of that. I'm not saying it's not a good scene, I actually like it. It just doesn't advance the plot in any way. "

Any of the three of four endings to Lord of the Rings: Return of the King.  I know the book goes on and on, but the movie doesn't need to.  
 
Also, any montage that involves... 

1. dancing while doing some other task (i.e. dancing/cooking, dancing/cleaning, dancing/deboning a chicken)
2. changing clothes over and over, a.k.a. the fashion montage or the make-over montage
   
3. 60's Motown music or the 80's hit single "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina and the Waves.
   

I know the book goes on and on, but the movie doesn't need to.  

" @Perfect_Winter: The scene is not pointless at all. It shows that she is just a little girl and deliberately contradicts the whole "train me to be a killer"-thing. There are even more things to it which I will not explain now (Leon's emotional life, the bond between the two and how he opens up to her etc.)  Maybe you mistake "I don't like the scene" with "doesn't serve a purpose in the movie". "

" @Perfect_Winter: I just think it serves an important purpose in the movie. Both plot-wise (character development somewhat belongs to this) and structurally. "

Lucas should've died after producing Raiders in 89.
He hasn't done anything, but tarnish and rape anything his touched since then.
 
It's almost an awesome sort of trolling the amount of nerd rage he's unleashed.
I never saw that flick Fanboys about the dudes who are gonna sneak into Skywalker Ranch to see Episode 1 before it's released, but I'd love it if the ending would be them sneaking into George's bedroom after seeing it and choking him to death in his sleep.

" Midichlorians .... that scene singlehandedly destroyed the "force"-mythos of the SW universe. "

I think you will find this is classed as the most unnecessary but most awesome scene in a movie ever ...

I'd say the last... what half hour of the last LOTR movie? 
 
Whatever happens after they toss the ring is completely unnecessary. No one needed to survive, and we didn't need the confirmation of such, because it's pretty easy to assume anyway. It ended like 5 times and kept going. URGH. They won. Game over for  the bad guy. Cut to credits, and print, assholes.

" @turbomonkey138: The music ruined it. Now if they did it with the JAWS ba dump, ba dump, music it would have been hilarious. "

The last scene in Cabin Fever is sublimely ridiculous.  Early on, the pasty white teenagers go to a general store to pick up supplies.  They see some shotguns on the wall and ask the hillbilly owner what they're for.  Whitey responds "Those are for n******," which naturally freaks out the kids, so they buy their crap and get the hell out of there.  They then go on to the cabin and all sorts of nasty things happen to them in the woods.
 
At the end of the movie, a Jeep full of black guys rolls up to the general store, and the hick runs inside.  He comes back out with the shotguns, looking like he's going to shoot them.  But instead, he yells "WHADDAP MY N******!" and gives them their shotgun which he'd been holding onto for them.  They then, and I'm not kidding, have a hootenanny on the front porch with the black guys.

Pretty much any sex scene in a film made in the 80's is pointless. The 80's was the decade of pointless sex scenes.

Every scene added to Apocalypse Now in Apocalypse Now Redux.

I'd say the ending was not enough, the movie had to remove quite a large part of the ending already, like the burning and liberation of Shire for example. "
