Little moments in movies you love.

[Turd Ferguson]

There's a scene at the beginning of Lilo and Stitch where Dr. Jumba is being put on trial for making weapons and they reveal Stitch and he's looking around curiously and the judge asks him question and he says something alien and I love when the robot judge starts vomiting nuts and screws and washers

 

[ParticleMan]

I love the sequence in Fellowship of the Ring as Gandalf's wagon is rounding the top of the hill to Bag End. Just the lighting, music, everything...that's when I finally exhaled and knew that the LOTR movies were going to be great...

And I still love the shot in the Matrix where the car with Neo, Trinity, Switch and Apok arrive at the hotel to meet Morpheus for the first time. I love the view from the top of the hotel with the rain pouring off the side of the building.

 

[BigFoot]

^ I can totally picture that scene (including the music) from Fellowship right now.

 

[Lookingglassman]

Patton: He is meeting with a group of chaplains and one says to him, "General, we noticed a Bible by your bed. Do you find time to read it?"

George C. Scott answers, "I sure do! Every G+Dd++n day! Then he cracks a smile at them.

I also liked when Leonardo Decrapio died at the end of Titanic because I cant stand him.

 

[Lookingglassman]

I like the scene from LOTR when Gandolf is facing that fire demon thing. He stands before him and screams, "YOU SHALL NOT PASS!" Then he slams down his staff. This thing rears up to strike and the bridge gives out beneath him.

I also like the scene when Liv Tyler is being chased by those ring wraith dudes and the water turns into horses and washes them away.

 

[Caliburn24]

I was watching Where Eagles Dare last week, and in the final scene where Richard Burton is confronting the British double agent on the plane, Cartwright Jones sleeps through the entire scene. Makes me laugh every time.

 

[sidious618]

Interesting topic. I'd have to say in The Phantom Menace when Qui-Gon sticks his lightsaber into the door and the expression of resignation on his face appears. I love that moment as Qui-Gon is my favorite character and I never cease to get teary eyed when I watch it.

 

[BrotherBenny]

I like the extended scene in LOTR when Aragorn is waiting on the coast for the approaching ships, and they drop anchor and the bad guys hop down. Aragorn tells them he is taking the ships, and the guy looks around, sees Legolas and the Dwarf, and says with what army - then Aragorn raises his sword and the ghost just swarms out from the walls.

I also like it when the relays are lit, "We ride...for Gondor!"

 

[BigFoot]

Gandalf and the Rohirrim showing up at Helm's Deep. Best moment ever!

 

[Misfit Toy]

I was watching Where Eagles Dare last week, and in the final scene where Richard Burton is confronting the British double agent on the plane, Cartwright Jones sleeps through the entire scene. Makes me laugh every time.

I haven't seen that movie for ages! At one time I counted that among my favorite films. I'll have to try to find it again...

 

[Mistral]

In Armageddon, I like when Buscemi is duct-taped and he says something about, "Hey, Guys, you're not going to say anything about this, right?" I laugh every time I see it.

 

[Data Holmes]

In Armageddon, I like when Buscemi is duct-taped and he says something about, "Hey, Guys, you're not going to say anything about this, right?" I laugh every time I see it.

A few great moments in that movie...

The Russian guy is the best...

"American components, Russian components... All made in Taiwan."

"This is how we fix things in Russian" Bashes the panel "Space" Bashes panel "agency!" ship starts to work again, "Now we can go home!"

 

[beneldon]

I really love it in Star Wars when they approach the Death Star for the first time. Han Solo is looking at this thing like it's the biggest prison in the galaxy.

The line in Total Recall when Arnold and Maria Conchita Alonso are running thru the airport and he says: "I had the perfect shirt for it but you fucked it up!"

Priss in Blade Runner having just seen her hiding from him under the veil letting her mirth escape as the toy bumps into the wall then Decard shoots her and she thrashes and screams blindly, clinging to her life.

In Jaws, the scene out on the water as a couple of meteors zip by in the sky.

Romey and Michelle's Ten Year Class Reunion: Interpretave dance to Cindy Lauper!

 

[Islander]

Not as much a moment of the movie itself than the image it brings me but the scene in Dragonheart where Bowman sits on Draco's tongue is just hillarious. Try picturing Sean Connery, with all of his class, nobility and standing doing the voice over with two fingers in is mouth: "A., t.ank yu; t.at was stuck in t.ere for mont."

 

[The Borgified Corpse]

A great little exchange from Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl between Captain Jack Sparrow & Elizabeth Swan:
"Not good! You're burning all the food, the shade, the rum!"
"Yes, the rum is gone."
"Why is the rum gone?!"
I love the way Jack says that last line, as if he's still so drunk that he can barely formulate the sentence. Rather, inquiring after rum is simply second nature by now.

At the beginning of Batman Begins, when the big guy picks a fight with Bruce Wayne in the Chinese prison, I love the slight swagger in his voice when Bruce Wayne says, "You're not the devil. You're practice."

When Denethor goes crazy in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King.

"Abandon your posts! Flee! Flee for your lives!"

"There will be no tomb for Denethor & Faramir, no long slow sleep of death embalmed. We will burn, like the heathen kings of old. Bring wood & oil."

"Go now & die in whatever manner seems best to you."

And, of course, the part where he starts running around everywhere on fire.

 

[Flying Spaghetti Monster]

Not as much a moment of the movie itself than the image it brings me but the scene in Dragonheart where Bowman sits on Draco's tongue is just hillarious. Try picturing Sean Connery, with all of his class, nobility and standing doing the voice over with two fingers in is mouth: "A., t.ank yu; t.at was stuck in t.ere for mont."

I really like that scene

Lilo and Stitch is such a good, sad movie.

I love Lilo...when she first meets Cobra Bubbles is hilarious.

But two of the huge points of the movie is when she talks about how she lost her parents. And at the end when Stitch realizes what family means.

Another is The Emperor's New Groove-

"Yay! I'm a llama again....wait..."

One of my favorite lines in a movie ever.

In Kung Fu Hustle, I love the slap stick humor in that all around but one of my favorites is the bit with the snakes and the knives Poor Stephen Chow.

Robin Hood: Men In Tights is chalked full of humor, but two of my favorites is...

Robin Hood: Hey, Blinkin!

Blinkin: Did you say Abe Lincoln?

And

(Robin Hood rides up to a perch where Blinkin is on watch duty)
Robin Hood: Blinkin! What are you doing up there?

Blinkin: Guessing. I'm guessing no one is coming.

 

[BrotherBenny]

10 Things I Hate About You is chock full of good bits, but the Phys. Ed. interrupted by Ledger singing is great and the Stiles detention scene is fantastic.

 

[Mr. Laser Beam]

The line in Total Recall when Arnold and Maria Conchita Alonso are running thru the airport and he says: "I had the perfect shirt for it but you fucked it up!"

that was The Running Man actually.

That was my "moment" for those movies, too. It was a brief, flawless scene that completely pulled me in and kept there until the last scene in the last film.
