Just watched one...
at the end of Sleepless in Seattle where they meet athe top of the Empire Stte buiding
it's kind of hokey, but a good scene nonetheless
there are quite a few others I can think of, but I'll wait for some responses
-"God Doc, why are you out here anyway?"
"Wyatt Earp is my friend."
-"Hell, I got lots of friends."
"I don't."
Animal House, when Blutarski (Melushi) is on the ladder at the sorority house
I lol every time
Excellent Johnny. I was thinking of that one. Tombstone has a bunch.
How about the scene where Wyatt is bitch slapping Billy Bob Thornton's character.
"Well are going to do something or are you just gonna stand there and bleed."
Another good Western scene is the end of Unforgiven when Clint Eastwood Kills everyone in that bar and talks some smack with Gene Hackman.
The end of Pulp Fiction in the diner is good.
Too many good ones to list.
I would ask if the bell ringing scene in Deep Throat counted, but then some of you might not understand that I have reformed since my offshore days. I would then never get your vote for president.
So, instead I will nominate the scene in Arthur immediately following Hopson's death where Authur has a discussion with a drunk about Communist and dancers. That is one funny scene.
Caddy Shack, when Bill Murray is knocking the crap out of the mums
Cinderella story. Outta nowhere. A former greenskeeper, now, about to become the Masters champion. It looks like a mirac...It's in the hole! It's in the hole! It's in the hole!
Legends of the Fall -
When the guy is killed by the bear and they say "It was a good death". Always liked that scene.
Galen Rockett
Stripes -
you're a lean, mean fighting machine
Can't stand rudeness in a man. Won't tolerate it. - Capt. Woodrow Call
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' boy - Jose Wales
I realize that these are famous lines, but the scenes either before or after are some of my favorites.
Other lines. You pick the movie and scene...
Try the veal. It's the best in the city.
What 'choo lookin' at?
This will show you how many kids movies I've been watching, but two of my favorite scenes of all time are from recent animated movies.
First, the scene at the end of Over the Hedge where they finally give Hammy one of the caffeinated energy drinks. Watching that squirrel stroll around at the speed of light cracks me up every time!
Second, the scene in the middle of Robots where all of the characters are trying to go to sleep and Rodney decides to have a little fun. Here's the transcript, courtesy of the IMDB:
Rodney Copperbottom: Hey Fender.
[Rodney does arm farts]
Fender: Yeah Baby, let 'er rip!
[Rodney and Fender are doing arm farts]
Crank: What are you guys, 3 years old? This is how a man does it.
[Crank does arm farts]
Piper: You guys are SO gross! Besides, this is how you do it.
[Piper does arm farts]
Aunt Fanny: Hey kids, get a load of this...
[does BIG farts; Everyone is grossed out]
Piper: Aunt Fanny, we were using our arms!
Crank: Ugh, light a match!
Lamppost: Lady... please... see a doctor...
Lamppost: [the lamppost passes out]
Another one -- in True Lies, when they bust into the trailer while Bill Paxton is trying to "close the deal" on Jamie Lee Curtis. Everything goes to hell in a handbasket, the macho Paxton turns into a puss, and the meak housewife Curtis starts fighting against the SWAT guys and kicks Tom Arnold in the nuts!
Which reminds me of another scene from that movie, when Curtis finally realizes her husband of all those years really isn't a salesman but a spy. Schwarzenegger has been given the truth serum and Curtis is asking him all kinds of questions, including:
Helen Tasker: Have you ever killed anyone?
Harry: Yeah, but they were all bad.
and:
Helen Tasker: Are we going to die?
Harry: Yes.
But it all ends with Schwarzenegger talking trash (while still in his drug induced state of truth-telling) with the guy who is going to torture them to death:
Harry Tasker: First I'm gonna use you as a human shield, then I gonna kill this guard over there, with the Patterson trocar on the table. Then I was thinking about breaking your neck.
Samir: And how are you going to do all that?
Harry: You know my handcuffs?
Samir: Hmm...
Harry: [hold his hands up] I picked them.
Man, there are so many great scenes in that movie!
Pulp Fiction with Samuel L in the young guy's apartment:
Jules: What does Marcellus Wallace look like?
Brett: What?
Jules: What country you from?
Brett: What?
Jules: What ain't no country I ever heard of! They speak English in What?
Brett: What?
Jules: ENGLISH, MOTHERF***ER! DO-YOU-SPEAK-IT?
Brett: Yes!
Jules: Then you know what I'm saying!
Brett: Yes!
Jules: Describe what Marcellus Wallace looks like!
Brett: What, I-?
Jules: [pointing his gun] Say what again. SAY WHAT AGAIN. I dare you, I double dare you, motherf***er. Say what one more ***damn time.
Brett: He's b-b-black...
Jules: Go on.
Brett: He's bald...
Jules: Does he look like a bitch?
Brett: What?
[Jules shoots Brett in shoulder]
Jules: DOES HE LOOK LIKE A BITCH?
Brett: No!
Jules: Then why you try to f*** him like a bitch, Brett?
Brett: I didn't.
Jules: Yes you did. Yes you did, Brett. You tried to f*** him. And Marcellus Wallace don't like to be f***ed by anybody, except Mrs. Wallace.
While we're on Pulp Fiction, how about:
"I just shot Marvin in the face!"
But, I think my favorite scene in that movie is the car cleaning rant by Jules. "I'm a mushroom cloud laying..."
I just remembered another great scene -- this one from Ocean's Eleven. Don Cheadle's character has just gotten caught trying to rob a large safe, and Brad Pitt shows up at the crime scene acting like a federal agent. He convinces the local cops to hand over Cheadle, and then slips him a bomb while doing a fake body search. They then calmly walk out of the crime scene and start running once the bomb blows up a police car.
Of course, the whole ending of Ocean's Eleven is classic. You are shown the whole gig and everything comes off perfectly. You suddenly realize that nothing in the last 20 minutes of the movie was unplanned!
All of Boondock Saints...
Here's one of my favorite scenes:
Keating passes by Todd and the others and gets to the back of the
classroom before Todd leaps up from his seat and turns to face him.
TODD
Mr. Keating! They made everybody sign
it.
Mr. Nolan gets up from his desk and approaches Todd.
MR. NOLAN
Quiet, Mr. Anderson.
TODD
You gotta believe me. It's true.
KEATING
I do believe you, Todd.
MR. NOLAN
Leave, Mr. Keating.
TODD
But it wasn't his fault!
MR. NOLAN
Sit down, Mr. Anderson!
Todd reluctantly returns to his seat.
MR. NOLAN
One more outburst from you or anyone
else, and you're out of this school!
Leave, Mr. Keating.
Keating hesitates at the back of the classroom.
MR. NOLAN
I said leave, Mr. Keating.
Keating slowly turns and heads to the door. As he opens
it, Todd, stands upon his desk and turns to Keating.
TODD
O Captain! My Captain!
MR. NOLAN
Sit down, Mr. Anderson!
Keating pauses at the door and looks back at Todd on his desk.
MR. NOLAN
Do you hear me? Sit down! Sit down! This
is your final warning, Anderson. How
dare you? Do you hear me?
After a moment of indecision, Knox climbs up onto his desk.
KNOX
O Captain! My Captain!
MR. NOLAN
Mr. Overstreet, I warn you! Sit down!
Pitts climbs up onto his desk, followed by several others,
including Meeks.
MR. NOLAN
Sit down! Sit down. All of you. I want
you seated. Sit down. Leave, Mr.
Keating.
More students stand on their desks until half the class is standing.
MR. NOLAN
All of you, down. I want you seated. Do
you hear me?
MR. NOLAN
Sit down!
Keating stands in the doorway, staring up at the boys in wonder. A
smile comes to his face.
KEATING
Thank you, boys. Thank you.
Now on a lighter side:
3 EXTERIOR - DAY
ARTHUR and PATSY riding. They stop and look. We see a castle in the
distance, and before it a PEASANT is working away on his knees trying
to dig up the earth with his bare hands and a twig. ARTHUR and
PATSY ride up, and stop before the PEASANT
ARTHUR
Old woman!
DENNIS
Man!
ARTHUR
Man. I'm sorry. Old man, What knight live in that castle
over there?
DENNIS
I'm thirty-seven.
ARTHUR
What?
DENNIS:
I'm thirty-seven ... I'm not old.
ARTHUR:
Well - I can't just say: "Hey, Man!'
DENNIS
Well you could say: "Dennis"
ARTHUR
I didn't know you were called Dennis.
DENNIS
You didn't bother to find out, did you?
ARTHUR
I've said I'm sorry about the old woman, but from the behind
you looked ...
DENNIS
What I object to is that you automatically treat me like
an inferior ...
ARTHUR
Well ... I AM king.
DENNIS
Oh, very nice. King, eh! I expect you've got a palace and fine
clothes and courtiers and plenty of food. And how d'you get that?
By exploiting the workers! By hanging on to outdated imperialist
dogma which perpetuates the social and economic differences in our
society! If there's EVER going to be any progress ...
An OLD WOMAN appears.
OLD WOMAN
Dennis! There's some lovely filth down here ... Oh!
how d'you do?
ARTHUR
How d'you do, good lady ... I am Arthur, King of the Britons ...
can you tell me who lives in that castle?
OLD WOMAN
King of the WHO?
ARTHUR
The Britons.
OLD WOMAN
Who are the Britons?
ARTHUR
All of us are ... we are all Britons.
DENNIS winks at the OLD WOMAN.
... and I am your king ....
OLD WOMAN
Ooooh! I didn't know we had a king. I thought we were
an autonomous collective ...
DENNIS
You're fooling yourself. We're living in a dictatorship,
A self-perpetuating autocracy in which the working classes ...
OLD WOMAN
There you are, bringing class into it again ...
DENNIS
That's what it's all about ... If only -
ARTHUR
Please, please good people. I am in haste. What knight lives in
that castle?
OLD WOMAN
No one live there.
ARTHUR
Well, who is your lord?
OLD WOMAN
We don't have a lord.
ARTHUR
What?
DENNIS
I told you, We're an anarcho-syndicalist commune, we take
it in turns to act as a sort of executive officer for the week.
ARTHUR
Yes.
DENNIS
... But all the decision of that officer ...
ARTHUR
Yes, I see.
DENNIS
... must be approved at a bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority
in the case of purely internal affairs.
ARTHUR
Be quiet!
DENNIS
... but a two-thirds majority ...
ARTHUR
Be quiet! I order you to shut up.
OLD WOMAN
Order, eh -- who does he think he is?
ARTHUR
I am your king!
OLD WOMAN
Well, I didn't vote for you.
ARTHUR
You don't vote for kings.
OLD WOMAN
Well, how did you become king, then?
ARTHUR
The Lady of the Lake, her arm clad in the purest shimmering samite,
held Excalibur aloft from the bosom of the water to signify by
Divine Providence ... that I, Arthur, was to carry Excalibur ...
That is why I am your king!
|
| OLD WOMAN
| Is Frank in? He'd be able to deal with this one.
|
DENNIS
Look, strange women lying on their backs in ponds handing out
swords ... that's no basis for a system of government. Supreme
executive power derives from a mandate from the masses, not from
some farcical aquatic ceremony.
ARTHUR
Be quiet!
DENNIS
You can't expect to wield supreme executive power
just 'cause some watery tart threw a sword at you!
ARTHUR
Shut up!
DENNIS
I mean, if I went around saying I was an Emperor because some
moistened bint had lobbed a scimitar at me, people would
put me away!
ARTHUR
(Grabbing him by the collar)
Shut up, will you. Shut up!
DENNIS
Ah! NOW ... we see the violence inherent in the system.
ARTHUR
Shut up!
PEOPLE (i.e. other PEASANTS) are appearing and watching.
DENNIS
(calling)
Come and see the violence inherent in the system.
Help, help, I'm being repressed!
ARTHUR
(aware that people are now coming out and watching)
Bloody peasant!
(pushes DENNIS over into mud and prepares to ride off)
DENNIS
Oh, Did you hear that! What a give-away.
ARTHUR
Come on, patsy.
They ride off.
DENNIS
(in the background as we PULL OUT)
did you see him repressing me, then? That's what I've
been on about ...
Gotta edit this one for content. From Scent of a Woman:
Lt. Col. Frank Slade: Out of order, I show you out of order. You don't know what out of order is, Mr. Trask. I'd show you, but I'm too old, I'm too tired, I'm too f*****' blind. If I were the man I was five years ago, I'd take a FLAMETHROWER to this place! Out of order? Who the hell do you think you're talkin' to? I've been around, you know? There was a time I could see. And I have seen. Boys like these, younger than these, their arms torn out, their legs ripped off. But there isn't nothin' like the sight of an amputated spirit. There is no prosthetic for that. You think you're merely sending this splendid foot soldier back home to Oregon with his tail between his legs, but I say you are... executin' his soul! And why? Because he's not a Bairdman. Bairdmen. You hurt this boy, you're gonna be Baird bums, the lot of ya. And Harry, Jimmy, Trent, wherever you are out there, F*** YOU TOO!
Lt. Col. Frank Slade: Clear them little bottles off. And when I get off the phone here, call up Hyman and tell him I want it wall to wall with John Daniels.
Charlie Simms: Don't you mean Jack Daniels?
Lt. Col. Frank Slade: He may be Jack to you son, but when you've known him as long as I have... that's a joke.
Friday:
when smokey stand over red and says "u got knocked the f out!"
when ezell says" i aint gonna tell nobody else!"
LORI - you cheated
GUS - Well I won't say I did and I won't say I didn't, but I will say this. Any man that wouldn't cheat for a poke, don't want one bad enough.
Now, someone write down the beginning of Full Metal Jacket when they are in the barracks.

Boondock Saints:
Connor: Now you will receive us.
Murphy: We do not ask for your poor, or your hungry.
Connor: We do not want your tired and sick.
Murphy: It is your corrupt we claim.
Connor: It is your evil that will be sought by us.
Murphy: With every breath, we shall hunt them down.
Connor: Each day we will spill their blood, 'til it rains down from the skies.
Murphy: Do not kill. Do not rape. Do not steal. These are principles which every man of every faith can embrace.
Connor: These are not polite suggestions, these are codes of behavior, and those of you that ignore them will pay the dearest cost.
Murphy: There are varying degrees of evil. We urge you lesser forms of filth, not to push the bounds and cross over, in to true corruption, into our domain.
Connor: For if you do, one day you will look behind you and you will see we three, and on that day you will reap it.
Murphy: And we will send you to whatever god you wish.

"This is your oath, --slap--, and this is so you remember it!"
"What man is a man who does not make the world better."
"God will understand, my lord. And if he doesn't, then he is not God and we need not worry."
Closing scene when Saladin has taken the surrendered Jerusalem, he is walking thru a palace and comes across a gold Crucifix. The Muslim leader leans down and lifts the Crucifix and sets it upon the table, pauses, looks at it and walks away. --Very powerful scene IMO

Remember the Titans - Gary Bertier is lying in the hospital bed listening to the championship game on the radio. When they finally win, he just lays his head back and outstretches his arms. Gets me every time. Just sheer joy!
And since I'm on sports movies - Ollie makes the free throws in Hoosiers. I think I clapped in the movie theater.
"Hey, where the white women at?"

"I think this place is restricted Wang so don't tell them you're Jewish. O.K., fine."

The scene in Factory Girl where Edie meets Billy Quinn. :D
"OVER THE LINE!"
"This is bowling Smokey, this is not 'Nam. There are rules. Mark it zero, Dude."
"Bullshit Walter. Mark it 8, Dude."
"Smokey, you are entering a world of pain."
"Dude..."
"A world of pain."
"..Du..."
[Walter pulls the peice out.]
"AM I THE ONLY ONE AROUND HERE THAT GIVES A S--- ABOUT THE RULES?!?!"
[later]
Jesus: "And you! You try any of this funny stuff; you pull a peice out on the lanes? I'll snatch it from your hands, stick it straight up your a--, and pull the trigger 'til it goes click."
Walter: "Jesus."
Jesus: "JOO SAID IT MAN! Nobody f---s with the Jesus."

Probably my favorite is the AirCav seen from Apocalypse Now. Robert Duvall creates one of the screen's most memorable characters in virtually no time at all.
Just about any scene from:
Outlaw Josey Wales
Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Blazing Saddles
Red Dawn (some great battle scenes and probably still the most realistic depiction of Russian military equipment)
"To announce your f>*^ing presence
with authority"? This guy's a
first ball fastball hitter. He's
looking for heat.
But he ain't seen my heat--
Awright, meat, give him your heat.
My mom must have seen that movie. She doesn't tip either. Well, at least she didn't until I found out about it. The misconception is that waiters and waitresses make minimum wage. Unless things have changed, they don't. As I remember it, they make a base amount and the rest is figured on what the average tip amount would be to get them to minimum wage. Once I explained that to my mom, she saw things differently, at least when I'm around. However, in reporting their tips, there is nothing that says they have to report the full amount they made, either, so it evens out somewhat.
One of my all-time favorite scenes is from Rocky II.
Adrian has just come out of her coma and Rocky says (something like this): I was thinking, if you don't want me mixing it up with Apollo no more, I can do something else.
Adrian: There's one thing I want you to do for me.
Rocky: What?
Adrian: Come here...(Rocky gets closer)...Win.
Rocky (surprised look): W-what?
Adrian: WIN!!
The very essence of sports, IMO, win dammit! WIN!!!!
Bull Durham:
Joe Reardon: He walked 18.
Larry: New league record!
Joe Reardon: Struck out 18.
Larry: Another new league record! In addition he hit the sportswriter, the public address announcer, the bull mascot twice...
[Joe laughs]
Larry: Also new league records! But, Joe, this guy's got some serious shit.
Skip: Everyone in the Shower! Anyone who's not in here in 10 seconds gonna be fine $100! Larry!
Larry: 1 Mississippi, 2Mississippi....10 Mississippi
Skip: Whats our record?
Larry: 8 and 16
Skip: 8 and 16...How'd we win 8?
Larry: It's a miracle
Skip: It's a miracle
Skip: You guys. You lollygag the ball around the infield. You lollygag your way down to first. You lollygag in and out of the dugout. You know what that makes you? Larry!
Larry: Lollygaggers!
Skip: Lollygaggers.

Even better than the Pulp Fiction one.
In "Groundhog Day" - the scene where Ned Ryerson meets Phil for the first time.
Fast Times at RH, swimming pool, Phoebe Cates, Judge Rienhold looking out the bathroom window...yep.
"Do you mind if we dance wiff yo dates?"
I'm pretty sure most of us reenacted that scene at least once when we were younger. Incidentally, I think Phoebe Cates did another movie a little after FTARH in which she had some minor nudity. Then, she and Kevin Cline got married. Kevin forbid her from doing any more nude type scenes in movies. If I'm not mistaken, he even selected her scripts for her. He was one of my favorite actors until I found out about that.

"What's a nubian?"
The goodbye at the waterfall in Last of the Mohicans.

One of the very very very few times I preferred the movie to the book. I can only think of one more sure thing, and two that are close.
- The Matrix, Neo and Trinity pass through the metal detectors with their guns and shoot the place up.
- In one of the Matrix sequels, Neo and Jet Li fight
- In "10", Bo Derek running on the beach. (From my younger days!)
To name a few.
Good to see this bumped.
A new addition: The first 5 minutes of Aqua Teen Hunger Force: Movie Film for Theatres
Absolutely spectacular. Best opening scene I've seen in a long, long time. Rest of the movie? Eh. Opening? FIVE STARS
Measuring the rims in Hoosiers.
Fooling the hounds in Cool Hand Luke. Fun scene.
All the different kinds of nuts in Best in Show when he is driving the RV.
Watched The Last Of The Dogmen last night. The whole movie is my favorite scene.
Dumb and Dumber
"We got no food, no jobs... our PET'S HEADS ARE FALLING OFF!"
The Game with Michael Douglas. Good movie. The best scene has to be the denouement and we all find out what has been going on for the entire movie. Freaky.
Andy Dufrane "get busy living, or get busy dying".
The "I Will Survive" dance scene in the jail cell in The Replacements. It cracks me up the end every time when the deaf guy doesn't see when everyone else stops dancing.
Also in the same movie I like the "Pain heals, chicks dig scars, glory lasts forever" speech.
