18 WTF Moments From 2017's Summer Blockbusters

17. Jude Law Talks To A Severed Ear - King Arthur: Legend Of The Sword

King Arthur Legend Of The Sword Jude Law Ear
Warner Bros.

After Arthur (Charlie Hunnam) unleashes the full extent of Excalibur on the evil King Vortigern's (Jude Law) guards, he and his remaining men give chase, eventually catching up to Arthur's wounded pal Back Lack (Neil Maskell) and his young son.

After Back Lack refuses to give up Arthur's location, Vortigern cuts one of his ears off, and in a moment of sheer inspired lunacy, starts talking directly into the ear, saying, "Now I repeat, where's your friend?"

Say what you want about the movie as a whole, but this was gloriously demented, and proof that Law knew exactly what kind of film he was in.
