What are your top 10 Ultimate Movie Moments and why? LOTR is not accepted!!!


Here be mine!

1. Godfather III - Mary Corleone is shot and killed on the steps outside the opera house. Her father, Michael is so gutted, he screams and its utterly silent at first, and then he breaths and its a heart wrenching cry. I loved the moment and its the only time i've ever cried in public.

2. Ned Kelly (Heath ledger version) - Dan Kelly and his best friend Steve commit suicide in a burning building after losing all hope of escape. This really hit at my heart. The acting was so great and they were only boys. It was done so well, it was all i could think about for hours afterwards.

3. Equilibrium - The Gun Kata sequences with Preston, all of them!

4. Full Metal Jacket - Private Piles Suicide. Was graphic but a great moment.

5. The Usual Suspects - Revelation of Kaiser Soze. So clever! I never guessed and was kicking myself! Great film!

6. Signs - Mel walks in and his kids and Bro have tinfoil hats on. I laughed so hard that i brought on an Asthma attack!

7. Fire Walk With Me - Laura Palmer being beaten to death. I just loved it. I loved the use of colour and lighting, the music and the angel who came to take her away when she thought that she was utterly alone. It was great.

8. Gone With the Wind - Rhett is drunk and threatens to crush Scarletts head for 'thinking about Ashley'. She replies with "Take your hands off me, you fool!". Superb! She is my all time favourite literary character!

9. Braveheart - The Irish change sides/Its my Island. Irish dude was funny and that was the only historically accurate moment in the whole damned movie!

10. Lake Placid - Golden Girl 'Rose' tells the cops off with some colourful language...


Remember! Movies only and NO LOTR!

1. Indian Runner - nuddie Viggo!

2. Emperor's New Groove - Any scene with Ezzma (most specifically 'Or.. to save on postage...')

Number 5 aint allowed! Movies only! And its kinda ironic that all your favs are dirty! You pervert! I half expect to see a scene from 'Shaving Ryans Privates' and 'Glad-he-ate-her'!!!

OK – here are mine (probably some from films no one has ever heard of I expect) and not in any real order…

1. Matrix Revolutions – Hugo Weaving doing kung fu whilst soaked in mud.

2. Ring (either version though I like the original Japanese slightly better) Scene near the very end where Sadako / Samara comes out of the TV screen

3. The Omen – when they open Damien’s mother’s grave in the old cemetery and find a dog’s bones inside (or whatever it’s meant to be, it’s still really creepy)

4. Proof – Hugo Weaving, playing a blind man, crashes Russell Crowe’s car whilst escaping a load of thugs. Later, as the nurse examines him in hospital, she says to him, ‘You’ve been blind all your life, haven’t you?’ When he says yes, she asks, ‘so what were you doing driving a car?’ Hugo – ‘I forgot.’

5. Blair Witch Project – final scene (yeah, I like cheesy horror)

6. The Lion King – ‘Circle of Life’ at the very beginning with all the animals and the little baby lion…awwwww

7. The Italian Job (original 60s version) – mini car chase scene…actually all of that film – is that allowed?

8. The Interview – Hugo Weaving in the middle of a police interview about a stolen car suddenly switching from nervous, divorced, unemployed nobody to serial killer. Sooo creepy.

9. Shakespeare in Love – Scene with the young John Webster feeding a mouse to a cat and describing all the blood and murder he loves to see in plays

10. Bedrooms and Hallways – semi-naked Hugo Weaving (I think I have a theme too…)

Hugonut!

[BittenBuggy]

Indeed, I LOVE that, just the look on their faces...

Ah, I have to rent that movie again...

[queenoftheshire]

Ok...
Let's see what I can think of:

1: Airplane!: The nun talking jive. Oh God...I laughed so hard at that!
2:Kill Bill Vol. One: The council discussing O-ren's mixed nationality and O-ren putting a quick end to it.
3: (Yes...I know. It's idiotic, but I love it anyway.) Austin Powers: Goldmember: That shadow gag... -snicker, snicker- And the subtitles gag too.
4: Hetty Winthrope Investigates: Nudie Dom! (Oh wait...that doesn't count.)
5: An Insomniac's Nightmare: Dom's neverending shower and shirtless scenes.
6: Sniper 470 (I'm surprised you didn't put this BB! ) Sweaty Billy strapped to the bed thing, with his shirt off and his hand in his pants.
7: Anything remotely Samurai.
8: Indiana Jones: Raiders of the Lost Arc: The Arabian swordsman who shows off his skills and just gets shot point blank. Also, when the Nazis bring out the coathanger resembling a weapon.

I just remember that part of Signs now!
I didn't like the movie that much, but I loved that!!

Ok....here we go (in no particular order)! Btw, I could only come up with seven right now, sooo.....

1. Some Like It Hot - when Jack Lemmon as Daphne is overjoyed after being proposed to by Osgood the millionaire. It never fails to cheer me up! I absolutely adore that movie!

2. Gone With The Wind - the very same scene Mora chose. Scarlett is gorgeous, I tell you! Love the movie, love the book. Whenever I´m watching it I am screaming at the TV, trying to make Rhett and Scarlett confess their love for each other.

3. Tim Burton´s A Nightmare Before Christmas - when they´re singing 'This is Halloween' in the beginning. There are so many details, the music is catchy and it´s a great introduction of the characters in the movie.

4. Spirited Away - when Shihiro sees Haku in his dragon-form being chased by the paperbirds. It´s so beautifully done, the way the dragon flies through the air! Also, I love the expression on Shihiro´s face when she is stunned by the fact that she was able to recognize Haku in spite of not knowing he´s a dragon in the first place. This is my absolute favorite movie right now!

5. 5th Element - when Bruce Willis is about to get robbed by that pathetic thief in the beginning. You know, the one with the funny hat and wierd dance. 'Gimme the cashhh....' 'You´ve been here long?'

6. Pulp Fiction - when Tim Roth and Amanda Plummer are trying to rob Samuel L Jackson. He´s telling them about his new interpretation of Hesekiel 25:17. Bloody brilliant!
Also, when John Travolta and Samuel L Jackson are discussing foot massage.

7. Fargo - everything! Every line, every actor, every scene, every little thing about it!
