Favorite Movie Scenes
Luvmom | Monday, January 28, 2002 - 07:19 pm     Speaking of Rain Man,I love it when he says "Kmart Sucks".......It's cute the way Hoffman says it. My all time favorite movie is "The Outsiders"I love it all but if i were to pick a favorite line that makes me cry every time,it would be as Johnny is dying and he whispers "Stay gold Ponyboy,Stay gold!"It gets me every time. I'll give one more,just because it's my second favorite movie of all time I loved "Man in the Iron Mask" I thought it was quite funny when D'Aragnan asked King Louis if he's every really loved a woman and with a cute smirk,King louis said Quite frequently actually. I have so much more like you guys do but I'll quit now |
Whoami | Tuesday, January 29, 2002 - 12:08 pm     Only a TV scene comes to mind. So I started a similar thread to this one in the TV Shows folder! |
Jbean | Tuesday, January 29, 2002 - 07:06 pm     back to rain man....when ray meets that prostitute and is telling charlie about her..."she's very sparkly, she looks like a holiday". ALSO the whole scene dealing with ray and his underwear "gotta get to k-mart, 400 oak street", and "uh-oh, of course your shorts are on the highway" I LOVE THIS MOVIE. spygirl, tommy boy is one of my favorites, too. how about this one...."what'd you DO?" or "That was AWESOME...sorry 'bout your car man, that sucks!" ok and only one more..."fat guy in a little coat, fat guy in a little coat" LOL!!! |
Dahli | Wednesday, January 30, 2002 - 01:59 pm     Does anyone remember the scene from The Lion King where Pumba and Timon are singing the song about makin' bacon...? That was the first animated movie I ever saw since I have no kids, but that song put me on the floor. Playing it over a couple of times could bring me close to passing out I laugh so hard! This scene funny to anyone else...? |
Goddessatlaw | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 01:41 pm     "In the Heat of the Night" - Sidney Poitier delivering the line "They call me Mr. Tibbs!" "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner" - Spencer Tracy's last speech - ". . . and if it's half of what we felt, that's everything." Katharine Hepburn tearing up - oh my. "Lethal Weapon" - Joe Pesci's "They f/ you in the drive through" scene. "Slapshot" - the sequence where the team takes out everyone in sight, including the referee and the organ player. "Philadelphia Story" - the Jimmy Stewart and Katharine Hepburn drunk scene. "Field of Dreams" - same as Gail, the ending scene when he realizes his father has come. |
Marysafan | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 04:25 pm     The Bridges of Madison County....Clint Eastwood standing in the rain....Meryl Streep in the truck seeing him in the mirror with her hand on the door handle wrestling with the decision to stay ....or go. |
Webkitty | Sunday, November 03, 2002 - 04:49 pm     Every scene in Sense and Sensibility is a gem but, when Kate Winslet as Marianne Dashwood is standing on the crest overlooking Willoughby's mansion in the driving rain, broken hearted because he had married the rich Miss Grey and sobs: ~Willoughby~ ~Willoughby~ It gets me every time. In Tommy Boy: when Tommy's friend catches him talking into the fan: ~L-u-k-e, I am your f-a-t-h-e-r~ funny. |
Marysafan | Monday, November 04, 2002 - 08:06 am     In Peggy Sue Got Married, when Peggy Sue answers the phone and realizes that she is talking to her grandmother. In the Planet of the Apes (the Original), the Statue of Liberty scene at the end. In Same Time Next Year, when George proposes marriage and Doris has to refuse him. In My Fair Lady, the racing scene at Ascot, when Eliza is describing her Aunt's illness. In Tough Enough, when Dennis Quaid sings that goofy song to his son. In Top Gun when Tom Cruise and Anthony Edwards sing "She's lost that lovin feeling." In the Sound of Music, when the children sing the "goodnight" song. In the Wizard of Oz, when the old bat Mrs. Gulch is riding he bicycle to that classic music. |
Heyltslori | Monday, November 04, 2002 - 11:50 am     In Terms of Endearment when Debra Winger is talking to her sons from her hospital bed. In Notting Hill when Julia Roberts says the "I'm just a girl..." line. In Shawshank Redemption when Tim Robbins makes it out of the prison and he's standing in the rain. WOOHOO!!! In the Sound of Music when they are sitting around the dinner table...and Maria doesn't tell the father about the pranks...and the kids start crying. In Life is Beautiful... well pretty much the whole movie. In Life as a House when Kevin Kline is in the hospital and his son shows him the Christmas Lights on the house. In Beaches ...oh man.. when Barbra Hershey dies. And...so I can stop crying... In Meet the Parents...every time Robert DeNiro says Ben Stiller's last name. In Vacation...the whole Aunt Edna on the roof part. |
Fluffybbw | Tuesday, November 05, 2002 - 07:30 am     In Philadelphia the scene toward the end of the movie when everyone is telling Tom Hanks good night at the hospital and one of his brothers breaks down and puts his head on the bed and cries. Tom reaches out and touches him and tries to comfort him. In Steel Magnolias, the opening scene with Darryl Hannah walking by all those beautiful homes, it just makes me wish there really was such a place and I lived in that neighborhood. In the movie Independence Day when the President makes his speech right before they get in their jets to kick some alien butt!! Always makes me proud! And pretty much every scene in the movie Crossing Delancy! |
Max | Tuesday, November 05, 2002 - 08:34 am     In Pretty Woman when Richard Gere walks in the bathroom and Julia Roberts is hiding something behind her back. He thinks it's drugs, turns out to be dental floss. She asks him to leave, he keeps staring at her until she says, "WHAT?!" He says, "It's just that people rarely surprise me." She replies, "Oh really? Most of 'em shock the sh!t outta me!" I find myself thinking of that scene a LOT. In Parenthood when Keanu Reeves is talking to Diane Wiest after he's found out what was bugging Joaquin Phoenix. He says, "You know, Mrs. Buchman, you need a license to buy a dog, to drive a car - hell, you even need a license to catch a fish. But they'll let any butt-reaming a$$hole be a father." Also from Parenthood the combination of scenes when the grandmother is describing how she used to love to go to the fair and ride the rollercoaster instead of the ferris wheel and then towards the end of the movie when Steve Martin and Mary Steenbergen are watching the kid's play and Steve Martin all of a sudden starts to feel like he's on a rollercoaster. In Philadelphia, when Tom Hanks is so entranced with the opera he's playing on the stereo and is explaining it to Denzel Washington. The cinematography is wonderful, the emotions raw. It makes me cry every time. In Harold and Maude (my all-time favorite movie) -- well, gee, just about every scene/line is my favorite, but here's a smattering: Ruth Gordon trying to get Bud Court to come out of his shell a bit tells him, "Everyone has the right to make an a$$ out of themselves. You can't let the world judge you too much." When they are in a field of daisies and Bud Court says maybe he'd like to be one of the daisies (implying that they are all the same). Ruth Gordon wants to know which ONE he would be and tells him they are not all the same: "Look. See, some are smaller; some are fatter; some grow to the left, some to the right; some even have lost some petals. All kinds of observable differences! You see, Harold, I feel that much of the world's sorrow comes from people who are THIS (points out one flower), yet allow themselves to be treated as THAT (gestures to the whole field)." |
Goddessatlaw | Tuesday, November 05, 2002 - 09:41 am     Max - I always think of that scene where Harold sets himself on fire in the backyard while Mom's interviewing one of his dates. Hilarious. Love the Cat Stevens score, too. |
Spygirl | Tuesday, November 05, 2002 - 10:24 am     Max -- adding on to that last scene from Parenthood...it is one of my favorite movies... after Grandma leaves to go out to the car when they are leaving for the play, Steve Martin makes a crack about her and Mary Steenbergen says "I happen to think she is a brillant woman" (or something close) and throws the ears at him. He looks out the window and yells back at Mary, "Oh yeah? Well, if she is so brilliant, why is she sitting in the neighbor's car?" That always cracks me up. And then at the Thanksgiving (I think) dinner table when the lights go out, Steve Martin accidentally gets his sister's vibrator instead of a flashlight. When one of his kids asks their mom what that was, Mary says, "That was an...electric ear wax cleaner". The little girl says, "It sure was big", and then grandma says, "IT SURE WAS!" Grandma is one of the funniest characters in that movie. Great movie! I've seen it at least 20 times. |
Babsbunny3 | Tuesday, November 05, 2002 - 11:52 am     Scene that literally made me break out in a sweat in the theater: Interview w/ a Vampire: the first time Tom bites Brad. *Jesus Mary and Joseph* I could watch that and then die happy. Ok, I also love the scene where Marisa Tomei wakes up to the Xmas tree in her bedroom in Untamed Heart. *SOB* |
Lycanthrope | Thursday, November 07, 2002 - 05:10 pm     Okay I'll play. In Resevoir Dogs, the scene with Michael Madsen dancing to the tune "Stuck in the Middle" while cutting off the policeman's ear. In True Romance, the scene between Christopher Walken and Dennis Hopper in Hopper's trailer. Talking about Sicilians and Moors and mixed blood lines until Walken blows his head off. In Pulp Fiction, the dancing scene with Uma and Travolta at Jack Rabbitt Slim's. Also, same movie but the scene is the one where they have to stab Uma's heart with adrenaline. Same movie, the scene where Samuel Jackson quotes the bible right before killing Frank Whaley's character. In Armageddon, the scene in the doctor's office showing how they all react to the tests. In Blade II, the scene where Blade carries Nissa out to watch the sunrise. In A Knight's Tale, the scene where Prince Edward officially knights William. In Spiderman, when MJ kisses Peter and realizes who he really is. In Highlander, the scene where Connor reveals how old he is to the red-headed cop. Same movie, the scene with Kurgan in the church. In Highlander II, the scene with Sean Connery on the airplane talking to the flight attendant about the food she's trying to serve him says, "I never eat anything I can't identify." Then he turns to the attractive lady passenger sitting next to him and with a mischeivous grin on his face says, "That's not entirely true." In Frailty, the scene where Adam says goodbye to the FBI agent. In Amercan Pie, (1)the internet peep scene, (2)the Finch-took-a-laxative scene, (3)Stifler's Mom seduction scene, and (4)the "SAY MY NAME BI***" scene. In American Pie 2, (1)the dad walking in on Jim scene, (2)the scene where Stifler walks in with a wet head and says, "I got peed on", (3)the scene with all the walkie talkie confusion where the girls are nearly naked, (4)the scene where Michelle sticks a trumpet in Jim's nether region, and (5)the scene where Sherminator and Nadia hook up with Stifler and Vicki's friend watching. You can tell I'm a movie buff, but that's all for now. |
