Great Film Moments!

Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

then of course, there are some fantastic scenes in The Thing.

my favourite has to be just after they do the blood test and Garry starts talking in a very calm and collected way and just explodes to deliver the last 5 words

"I know you gentlemen have been through a lot, but when you find the time, I'd rather not spend the rest of this winter TIED TO THIS ****ING COUCH!"
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

I like a lot of films from various genre but I guess my all time favourite film is Lawrence Of Arabia, followed by The Godfather. More recently The Lord Of The Rings trilogy
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

In the first Kill Bill movie, a part of the kitchen scene. I liked the line from Kiddo, when Vernita mentions that Bill gave her the impression that she lacked rationality (something along those lines anyway) and Kiddo responds with, "It's mercy, compassion, and forgiveness I lack; not rationality."

In Robocop 2, when the Terminator and the boy go to get his mother from the institution and run into her in the hallway, her horrified reaction of seeing the Terminator again is one of my favourite moments.

Mystery Men. The guy with the shovel, when he is trying to convince his wife that he is meant for greater things (being a hero) he says, "Lucille, God gave me a gift. I shovel well. I shovel very well."

I like how he takes pride in being skillful with a shovel :D
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

I don't think the Terminator and Robocop were in the same movie although it sounds like it could be fun. Terminator: "My mission parameters are to protect you", Robocop: "I want baby food, thats my only protection"
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

A couple of western mentions reminded me of Dances With Wolves. Even though I know it's coming, the death of Cisco hits me everytime. And then of course I yell at the screen for Two Socks to run away but he never does...

Oops, I meant Terminator 2, not Robocop :D. I think my hands were playing a trick on me, when they typed that.

Aliens when Newt tells Ripley, " Ripley, she doesn't have bad dreams because she's just a piece of plastic." and when Hicks(I think) freaks out, "That's it man, game over man, game over!"

Saved has lots of great lines, but ive always lovd when they introduced Patrick's character as just returning from a Christian Skateboarding Association tour, " Been hittin' the board for the Lord. God, is nothing sacred to you people?"
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

another classic is in Braindead when the vicar says "I kick ass for the Lord" and starts giving the zombies a kung fu kicking. absolutely priceless

Oh, yes sir. Bit me right in the buttocks. They said it was a million dollar wound, but the army must keep that money 'cause I still haven't seen a nickel of that million dollars.
- Forrest Gump :D

Now and then, for no good reason, life will haul off and knock a man flat.
This quote comes from the movie Old Yeller. (great movie)

Actually it was Hudson. But that's okay. They had trouble with it in the movie also.;)

Gorman: Morning, Marines. I'm sorry we didn't have time to brief you people before we left Gateway, but...
Hudson: Sir?
Gorman: What is it, Hicks?
Hudson: Hudson, sir.
[points]
Hudson: He's Hicks.
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

I've got a whole list of quality quotes to post,sadly they are from Kevin Smith films and are probably better left of this thread due to the nature and language of them.

Jay and Silent Bob Strike back In Moobys, Jay's rather strong reply to criticism on the movie poop shoot website.

Dogma Jay's ideal place to pick up easy chicks
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

I'm not the tallest, so I always take great pleasure in telling my less vertically challenged colleagues/friends this when I want to get past:
Outa the way, peck! (from Willow)

For droll, I can't go past Pride and Prejudice:
You think that, if it gives you comfort...

And last but not least what a rich vein is the Princess Bride. A sampling:
After all, if you don't have your health, you don't have anything.
My name is Inigo Montoya etc etc prepare to die!
Have fun storming the castle, boys...

Danny Devito in Ruthless People
Talking to a policeman the telephone rings, a wrong number asks for Debbie….

"Debbie can’t talk right now… my dicks in her mouth!"

I can't post the link to youtube because I'm under 15 posts
look it up under I love wrong numbers.
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

The lighting of the beacons in Lord of the Rings.

Yeah, that was good. Then there's the charge of the Rohirrim at the battle of Pelennor Fields, later in the same movie.

Favourite though has gotta be Rutger Hauer at the end of Bladerunner, changing his mind and saving Deckard.

Oh, how I love that movie.
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

I am surprised that no one seems to have mentioned The Princess Bride, a film that is a veritable cornucopia of good quotes and scenes:

For instance the sword fight at the top of the cliffs:

Inigo Montoya: You are wonderful.
Westley: Thank you; I've worked hard to become so.
Inigo Montoya: I admit it, you are better than I am.
Westley: Then why are you smiling?
Inigo Montoya: Because I know something you don't know.
Westley: And what is that?
Inigo Montoya: I... am not left-handed.
[Moves his sword to his right hand and gains an advantage]
Westley: You are amazing.
Inigo Montoya: I ought to be, after 20 years.
Westley: Oh, there's something I ought to tell you.
Inigo Montoya: Tell me.
Westley: I'm not left-handed either.
[Moves his sword to his right hand and regains his advantage]

And the poisoned wine chalice:

Westley: You've made your decision, then?
Vizzini: Not remotely! Because iocaine comes from Australia, as everyone knows. And Australia is entirely peopled with criminals. And criminals are used to having people not trust them as you are not trusted by me, so I can clearly not choose the wine in front of you.
Westley: Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.
Vizzini: Wait till I get going!
[pause]
Vizzini: Where was I?

One of my all time favourite movies.
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

Reputedly the most quoted movie in filmdom is Young Frankenstein. Appropriate to mention it today on Halloween. My favorite line is by Frau Blucher:

YES. YES. Say it. He vas my... BOYFRIEND.
 
Re: Fave Film scenes/moments/quotes.

What about, "Get away from her you BITCH!"

I shouldn't have to say where that's from
