Default Boardroom Scenes

I am doing a project for work and need to come up with a great boardroom scene to use as a clip in a PowerPoint.

So far I've only come up with a few (none of which I've rewatched yet). Can anyone help me out?

Here is what I've got:

Wall Street (I think it has one)
Liar, Liar (this is the one I'm leaning to right now)
Billy Madison
The Errand Boy (1961 with Jerry Lewis)

Any help with ideas would be great! Thanks.

Karlanee, I don't know if these suit your needs, but these come to mind:

Hudsucker Proxy
Boomerang
What Women Want
Batman Begins
Hitch
Shattered Glass (more casual attire, however)

Anything helps. Thanks for the list! I'll try seeing if I can find clips of these to preview.

Thanks again.

If you don't have to use an actual film here are some templates that you might be able to use:

Online Clips:

Don't know if this helps but might give you some ideas....

Actually, depending on the use, you may not legally be able to use scenes from published works. It may be a copyright violation. I would check copyright before using anything.

We have patent/copyright attorneys working with us on this project. My job is to come up with the ideas/clips and they will handle any legal issues before they are used in the final project.

Of course, I had no way of knowing that. Most people think they can just use a clip or other piece from published work. So, I just like to inform. better to inform than to just let it slide. Then, if someone gets into a legal situation, it is their fault for not listening to sound advise.

No problem if you have it covered.

I have to agree with you on this topic. I'm one of those people that would rather find out the law first and not do it if I can't keep within the law, than to be ignorant of it or ignore it and get into trouble.

Thanks for your concern.
