Meet the Parents DVD Outtakes and Extras

 

 

Imagine meeting the parents of the person you intend to marry and pandemonium breaks loose!  This is what happens in the 2000 hit movie “Meet the Parents” when Greg Focker (Ben Stiller) meets the parents (Robert De Niro and Blythe Danner) of his girlfriend, Pam (Teri Polo).  After you have a chance to watch this laugh a minute comedy, be sure to tune in to the DVD Outtakes Reel!  Here are a few things you can expect to see!

 

Take A Look At This!

Robert De Niro attempts to open a cabinet door.  All doesn’t go well, however, when the door hits him in the face.

 

Even The Best Of Us Have Off Days!

Several outtakes show that even the best actors in Hollywood need more than one take to get a scene right.  In this case, Robert De Niro breaks into laughter during scenes that have him calling Jinxy, the cat and when he is talking to Ben Stiller. 

 

Is That Your Best Explanation?

Some of the funnier outtakes include Ben Stiller.  On this DVD reel, you get to see alternate scenes of Greg Focker saying grace at the Byrnes’ household as well as explaining how the accident with the lacquered altar happened.

 

We’ll Have To Call The Food Network

Is that really a piece of meat on the plate?  You’ll see Robert De Niro make fun of meat that is supposedly on his plate during the dinner scene.

 

Can Everyone Stop Laughing?

Sometimes more than one person will cause a mishap during a scene.  There are several outtakes of  De Niro and Owen Wilson trying to get through the scene in the kitchen.  Add to the mix Ben Stiller and Teri Polo and it’s a wonder if they were able to finish the final cut with a straight face!
