Question

What Are Your Favorite Movie Scenes Of All Time?

Answer 1

The Stand. Why= because I can see this happening in reality. Favorite scene= The Last one where the Defeat is Obvious and Humanity continues to go on.

Answer 2

I've definitely got to agree on "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly." That series is one of the greatest I've ever seen.



Another Eastwood reference. The scene in Dirty Harry (although it's quoted ad nauseum)...

I know what you're thinking. "Did he fire six shots or only five?" Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement I kind of lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?



"The Boondock Saints" - the courtroom scene at the end of the film when they dispense justice!



"Fast Times at Ridgemont High" - the scene at All American Burger when the angry customer is complaining about his breakfast and Judge Reinhold loses it: "Mister, if you don't shut up I'm gonna kick 100% of your ***!"



"Young Frankenstein" - the 'Puttin on the Ritz' scene. "Super-Duper!"



"High Noon" - every time Gary Cooper glances at the hands on the clock, waiting for Noon.



"Mallrats" - Jay and Silent Bob scheming to bring down the stage... Batman suit and all.



"Halloween" (the original) - The opening scene when a young Michael murders Judith.



"Army of Darkness" - Windmill scene as Ash starts losing it. Excellent Three Stooges references! Actually, the entire film is chock full of great scenes.



"First Blood" - The entire movie is great, but the speech Rambo gives at the end as he breaks down is brilliant. "It's never over!" etc.



So many more...



(EDIT)

Add-ons



"It's a Wonderful Life" - George Bailey running through the streets of Bedford Falls yelling 'Merry Christmas' to everyone... especially to the fat-cats at the bank.



"Casablanca" - 'Of all the gin joints in the world, why'd you have to wander into mine?' etc



"Raiders of the Lost Ark" - the first 10 mintes "Start the plane! Start the Plane!"

Also.. You know me (I tell it.. AS IS) The battle of Guiford Court House... It hits VERY close to home! (I'm 41) my dad would take us to these sites (my brother and I) and try to educate us about the things that happened in our area...

(still get the apple in the throat on the place his son (older) was killed and then, when he tell tells the head of the Rangoon.. "Before this war is over, I'm going to kill you...")

We will NOT parish, we will NOT fade into the night... yadda yadda yadda, it still chokes me up after all this time!



The Flying Monkey and Witch destroyed scene in Wizard Of Oz... I'm still scared, don't ask me why, but I love it.

**The 10 commandments, When moses goes to the king of egypt and lays out what going to happen if he don't "let the people go" and then "the plauges that fell upon egypt!" and lastly when the Egyptian army dares to cross the sea to capture them,.. and then the sea crashes back in on the army...
