I was hanging out with my friend recently, I brought this movie up and he launches into a startlingly accurate version of this speech. I don't think he nailed every line exactly, but he had the whole thing and it was damned impressive.
In 87, Huey released this: Four - their most accomplished album. I think their undisputed masterpiece is 'Hip to Be Square' - a song so catchy most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity and the importance of trends; it's also a personal statement about the band itself.
I would've never thought that was Jared Leto. Everytime I saw 30 secs to Mars I kept thinking "man, the lead singer sure looks like the dude in American Psycho"
Classic man!! Shows, not only Christian Bale's amazing ability as an actor but also the terrifying duality and almost Jeckyl and Hyde nature of the main character. possiably the best movie scene ever! :P
I watched this movie for the 1st time the other night....I will never be able to hear "Hip To Be Square" without thinking about this lol....this movie is so screwy, but funny.....in a really creepy weird way....
This scene probably didn't happen, because Patrick was just imaging it. Remember at the end (SPOILER), the lawyer told Bateman that Paul Allen was alive and he had dinner with him in London. We are witnessing the emotions that he felt.
There's only one argument that I would like to make about this fantastic scene, if Patrick would have beaten Paul with the axe blood would have also splattered on the wall as well and virtually stained it leaving behind evidence that he 'committed' the murder.
Christian Bale in one of the best performances of his carrier (amongst the top five of his life); I don't think it was Mary Harron's direction or adapted screenplay of Ellis' supposed masterpiece that in essence brought the best out of Bale (as a borderline method actor) - but Ellis' book itself - and Patrick Bateman (apparently one of the most psychologically and emotionally complex characters commited to the literary medium). I'm an aspiring filmmaker and I think I can make a better adapation.

The best part is that he ad-libbed the dancing thing. It wasn't in the script or the original book.
Is that a raincoat?
Yes it is!
Pure comedic genius.
how he says "yes it is" just makes me laugh.
And in this scene laidies and gentlemen, we see Christian Bale slowly and casualy turn into Jim Carry.
"Is that a raincoat?" Yes it is!"
Batman kills the Joker.
The murdering, Batman could tolerate. The rise to being more successful than him, Bruce Wayne should not. He finally snapped.

No joke, I gave the Huey Lewis discography another shot after this movie.
So did I !! Lol
Okay Christian bales sounds like Jim Carrey in Bruce almighty in this movie..
this is what could've happened to Bruce Wayne if the trauma from the death of his parents took a... darker turn XD
1:08
Check'em

And then both went on to win Best Supporting Actor awards.

Hey, Paul! AAAAAAAHHHH!!!
That awkward moment when you kill someone with an ax everytime you hear Huey Lewis...
Ive never seen a Rx bottle with such little info on it...lol
That scream though.... GIves me chills so fucking brutal and with no remorse.
Bale based this character on the personality of Tom Cruise
"Hey Paul!"
I guess Batman broke his one rule...
1:08 check 'em
Ah Mr.Bale at his best. After "Newsies" and before "Batman"
That will teach him to have a nicer business card!
Outrageous!!!!
Everyone knows you use a match to light a cigar.
Patrick BATeMAN
love the way he talks
I watched this movie for the 1st time the other night....I will never be able to hear "Hip To Be Square" without thinking about this lol....this movie is so screwy, but funny.....in a really creepy weird way....
Anyone who says he's a shitty actor needs to see this.
one of the best scenes ever
this scene begins at 26:50 in the full film.
two oscar winning actors right there.
The Jim Carrey moment hahahaha
well now we know not to have thickful tasteness and a watermark on our business cards
Fing awesome scene and Bale totally ruled it. Love this film.
This scene probably didn't happen, because Patrick was just imaging it. Remember at the end (SPOILER), the lawyer told Bateman that Paul Allen was alive and he had dinner with him in London. We are witnessing the emotions that he felt.
reminds me of jim carry
Patrick Bateman's a nice guy isn't he?
Is that a raincoat?
YES IT IS! :D Have a cookie!
I love this scene! Is it me or does this remind you of jim carrey a little bit?
It'd be so gross if they added the starved rat led into the woman through a habitrail thing part of the book.
I love this part its so classic lol HEY PAUL!
Ed Gein would be proud.
Best song to see someone axed to death. In my opinion anyway.
I like the part where he checked out his doubles.
two years later.
This fucking scene is amazing, i laugh my ass off every time i see this. Bale is the man.
There's only one argument that I would like to make about this fantastic scene, if Patrick would have beaten Paul with the axe blood would have also splattered on the wall as well and virtually stained it leaving behind evidence that he 'committed' the murder.
I love this scene
Bale needs to do some more " hip " characters like this lol
i think he was....Bale could be a stunt double for Carrey...and vice versa almost
yes. in the book though, his name is " Paul Owen" not allen
When ever I hear this song I see this scene
Hey Paul! :D
Song so catchy
Who says he can't act?
Some Reason while he was talking he reminded me of Jim Carey
HEY PAUL!
the way he says "catchy" sounded like jim carry.
roger from American dad lol
1:08 check em
25 people aren't hip to be square
It is truly hip to be square.
Im lovin his hair.
Music To Kill To - "Hip to Be Square"
