Foo - Favorite movie scene?

Did a search...didn't come up with much...probably missed something..oh well.

Just curious..of all the movies that have ever been produced, what is your favorite scene?

Mine. I would say the scene in Dead Poets Society where Robin Williams gets Ethan Hawke in front of the classroom talking about Walt Whitman and a sweaty-toothed madman. Very inspiring.

Any scene from Porky's. All movies before and after pale in it's glow.

The scene from Shenendoah where Jimmy Stewart explains women to his future son in law.

The sex scene in Boys Dont Cry was pretty incredible.
.

We rented Blond and Blonder tonight. My favourite scene was when I woke up and saw the credits rolling. No, I did not choose the movie.

Vince Vaugn riding on the back of the motorcycle in Made.

That one scene in the Crying Game.

I've mentioned it before, but the final scene in "City Lights" is still my favorite so far.

Any scene from Porky's. All movies before and after pale in it's glow.

ahhh porky's, instant classic that's right on the border of being a porn film :roflmao2:

My 5 yr old son's favorite (one of them at least) is the cheerleader tryout scene in Bring It On. Where one of the judges falls out of his chair after one of the contestant's wiggles her butt in his face.

The Chipmunks in Disaster Movie.

+1.

Honourable mentions.

Millers Crossing - The big shoot out scene where Albert Finney unloads on the gangsters who try to kill him at his house.

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly - The cemetery gun fight.

Star Wars - The opening scene with the spaceship flying overhead.

Raiders of the Lost Ark - The opening scene with the gold idol

The piano duel between Jelly Roll Morton and 1900 in The Legend of 1900 because of what 1900 does with the cigarette

The twirling "showdown" between Johnny Ringo and Doc Holliday in Tombstone.

The scene in Kelly's Heroes where Telly Savalas (Big Joe) confronts Donald Sutherland (Oddball) in the tank/armor pool to enlist his help in going behind the lines to get the gold:

Oddball: Hi, man.
Big Joe: What are you doing?
Oddball: I'm drinking wine and eating cheese, and catching some rays, you know. [the look on Sutherland's face says it all- if you've seen this movie, you know what I mean...]
Big Joe: What's happening?
Oddball: Well, the tank's broke and they're trying to fix it.
Big Joe: Well, then, why the hell aren't you up there helping them?
Oddball: [chuckles] I only ride 'em, I don't know what makes 'em work.
Big Joe: Christ!
Oddball: Definitely an antisocial type. Woof, woof, woof! That's my other dog imitation.

I agree about Kelly's Heroes. The loyal nazi tank guy blowing the door off the bank to get the nazi gold was pretty hilarious.

Donald Sutherland steals the show in KH....cheesy film but one of my old favorites.

always wit da negative waves, moriarity....

"What is best in life?"

Darth Vader: "Obi-Wan never told you the truth about your father."
Luke Skywalker: "He told me enough. He told me you killed him."
Darth Vader: "No. I am your father."

My 8 year old jaw dropped right to the floor.

Good Stuff Leo's (played by Harvey Fierstein) exploding slacks monologue in Safe Men.

Chauncey Gardner walking away from the funeral in the final scene of "Being There".

Kevin Spacey walking/driving away in "The Usual Suspects".

Alan Bates walking away from the town (and into the asylum) in "King of Hearts".

How the final fight ends in Jean Claude Van Damme's "Bloodsport". Yeah, the movie's pretty tacky, but that scene explains the essence of all martial arts.

Where Jean Reno's 'Leon' comes comes face-to-face with Gary Oldman's corrupt cop in "The Professional"; . . . "this one's for the girl." Also, the final scene with Natalie Portman explaining here situation to her boarding school principal.

You want me on that wall.......

"What is best in life?"

lol

I never picked you for a Conan fan

I have difficulty picking one. There are so many...

But here is one the comes to mind (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ncCMLeunx4c):

In Risky Business, at the Porsche Dealer a comment from the service manager:

"Who is the U-boat commander?" :lol:

game over man......

and the "are you ok" scene from pulp fiction.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rWOn1dFmFds
you have to be careful when looking for that one.


or any samuel l Jackson scene
especially those involving snakes and planes

Millers Crossing - The big shoot out scene where Albert Finney unloads on the gangsters who try to kill him at his house.


The great thing about that scene is that it fills the whole of the song "Danny Boy". Truly a great scene from a movie with a plethora of great scenes to choose from.

Other great scenes

"Alien" when the monster makes his grand entrance from John Hurt. That scene never loses its gut busting ability.

"The Natural" The ending scene when Ray Hobbs truly becomes a Baseball diety. Though the ending is a complete 180 from the book.

"A Bridge too Far" The scene where the British paratrooper ends up losing his life trying to retrieve a badly needed supply cannister. And all the cannister was holding was new berets.

"I know something you don't know. I am not lefthanded"

I couldn't find the image but the fight scene in the first Indiana Jones when IJ just pulls his gun and shoots the swordsman rather than fight him is a great one.
