All time favorite movie scenes
 

That part in Jaws. God that scene is still riveting, isn't? That part where they're all on the boat, and the whole thing with the USS Indianapolis.

"The thing about a shark, he's got lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll's eyes. When he comes after you, he doesn't seem to be living until he bites you, and those black eyes roll over white. . . ."

That's such a good fucking scene. I love movies, I really do.

Oh yeah, the last scene in the Godfather. That scene makes the whole movie, which is really quite remarkable. Its fascinating, its this huge, winding, twisting, massive movie, and then it all just suddenly comes down to this tiny little, microscopic "No" out of Al Pacino's mouth. A little pin point that wraps the whole thing together and makes it all work.


When he plays "Marriage of Figaro" over the loud speakers in Shawshank Redemption.

The scene in the killer's basement in Silence of the Lambs. Its fucked up enough, but then when he turns the lights off and you see Clarice through the night vision goggles...god that's great. And exruciating. Yes.

The action scene near the end of Blazing Saddles that goes all through the movie studio.

The end of Willy Wonka.

The end of Old Yeller. http://www.netphoria.org/wwwboard/frown.gif

The "Fuck" part of planes trains and automobiles.

Ok, your turn.

Stacey crashing into the car on her bike in Wayne's World.

The lawnmower scene in Braindead/Dead Alive.

requiem for a dream - when they are sleeping on the couch together holding each other

the animations in the wall are always, always great. especially the first and second.

i can't really think of any others that really stand out.

In A Bronx Tale when the bikers are giving the bartender a hard time and Chaz Palmentieri (spelling) asks them to leave and they dont and he locks the door and says "now yous cant leave" and a torrid beating ensues. Yea.

It was the fucking repairman. I still can't get over that.

Almost famouse where he tells penny that she was sold for a carton beer and a tear runs down her face before she asks what kind of beer then smiles.

i love the lawnmower scene from dead alive. and then the scene where the zombie freak gets impaled on the light bulb and lights up from within. that movie has SO much gore. i fucking love it.

lol, YES! oh man. remembering that scene made me happy.

The "What would it mean to you if someone said 'I haven't seen Evil Dead 2 yet'?" scene from High Fidelity

the scene that gets me is when steve martin is so mean to john candy and then is on his way home remembering everything and you find out john candy's wife is dead-a bit contrived but it gets me all the time

-the end of some like it hot

-the opening sequence of amadeus

-the on the way to work talk in pulp fiction


I have a lot but those come to mind right now

Any scene in fight club but the best two are when Tyler is doing his karate thing and when they have their first fight.

And in Pulp Fiction where Vincent Vega wipes the blood off his hands on the towel.

Oblivious, I must say I am impressed. You're definitely zach's and my flowergirl now!

I've noticed that a whole lot of people here seem to to dislike the Fifth Element. but one of my all time faves is when the fight scene is happening while the Diva is singing. yeah, that's cool

and the opening of Star Wars: A New Hope, with the huge Star Destroyer shooting at the Rebel Blockade Runner from over the camera-genius

DORK.
