Guys, I have a video interpretation and thought an analysis of an ironic scene would do good. Looking forward to suggestions!
The most ironic movie ever?
I think he's after ironic scenes recommendations, and he can then make a video on it?
Try the Lance Armstrong scene from Dodgeball

I think it was more about Vader being questioned by Yoda and then Palpatine pointing it out

I know that's the wrong terminology, but what's the Star Wars version of a Trekkie?

We'll need a working definition of irony, then, I think, since people misuse the word all the time.
Technically it means (or meant) something contrary to what would be expected, but that's pretty broad, and a lot of people use it to just mean "saying the opposite of what you mean." To complicate things, you're asking in the context of film, and there is such a thing as "dramatic irony," which is when the audience knows something a character doesn't that casts what they do or say in another light.

OP, the scene where Hans Gruber outsmarts John McClane by pretending to be a hostage comes to mind. So much tension because we know our hero's in danger, yet we can do nothing about it.

I keep looking at the title of this thread and keep drawing a blank. I can't think of any movie I would describe as ironic.
