I've always felt it was because it was so different for Carey at the time and people weren't quite ready for it. The scene with Andy Dick, Jeanne Garafalo and Carey as Spock fighting Kirk at Medieval Times is a classic. <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/g82yZXXpxY8&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/g82yZXXpxY8&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
I think one of my favorite scenes in Spinal Tap (and, IMO, pretty subtle) is when Nigel is making a bunch of noise in his guitar solo and actually stops to tune the violin. That is f-en great! <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/4FuAUaJflRs&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/4FuAUaJflRs&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
