No one ever stops to think hey do donuts get their 15 seconds of fame in movies like "are there any donut scenes in movies?". And I get it why would anyone actually think like that. Well on National Donut Day, I finally stopped and let that thought bubble up. Turns out, at least 15 movies have embraced the sweetness of donuts in their storytelling. These round goodies have managed to steal the spotlight, whether they're spouting off impassioned speeches, serving as the backdrop for an event, or adding flavor to character development. And let's not forget the infamous Randy's Donuts, flaunting that gigantic donut atop their spot, which has become a recurring star in many flicks. Mind you, this list ain't the be-all and end-all. There are probably more donut scenes I missed, but hey, let's dive into these 15 donut scenes in movie and, while you're at it, swing by your local donut shop or hit up a national chain. Oh and because we don't gatekeep, rumor has it that Dunkin' Donuts is dishing out donut freebies. Now, without further ado, feast your eyes on these lip-smacking donut scenes in movies below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?vX9jOT7w3o0U Friday After Next So many funny scenes happened inside the Holy Moly Donut Shop, but here's a glimpse of the hilarity in the donut shop that should've probably been condemned. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v-QsnV8KUXl8 The Ladykillers The worlds worst robbers try to rob a donut shop. https://www.youtube.com/watch?vi2lufTHwGkQ Sonic the Hedgehog In this movie, Sonic affectionately refers to James Marsden's character, Tom, as "The Donut Lord" due to his love for doughnuts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?vqZ7DReG9XoI Power Rangers (2017) Krispy Kreme takes center stage in this film, as the plot revolves around the characters' quest to protect the Zeo Crystals, which are located beneath a Krispy Kreme restaurant. https://www.youtube.com/watch?vOVGbAFy36xM Iron Man 2 After getting plastered, soiling himself before a packed house, and having had a fight with his BFF, James “Rhody” Rhodes Tony Stark does what a lot of us do and eats his feelings.
