This year marks the 10th anniversary of one of the funniest chick flicks of all time. Bridesmaids broke the barrier for female comedies as many considered it to be a girl-version of The Hangover. With a star-studded cast including Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Rose Byrne, Maya Rudolph, Ellie Kemper, and others, this film was destined to be a blockbuster.

Director Paul Feig breaks down one of the most memorable scenes from the movie. As the girlfriends are on a plane, Kristen Wiig's character gets drunk and high on pills. What happens next is one of the silliest ad-libs of the decade. Even Feig had to remove himself because he was laughing so hard.
