Favourite movie moments/scenes!

Inspired by my “WOW!” moment in the movie “28 Years Later - The Bone Temple” , I had to think about the best moments/scenes in movies of all time. Scenes that make the whole movie a must watch,

Don’t watch these clips if you haven’t seen the movies, as many movies work up to those scenes…

Rutger Hauer in “Blade Runner”

Marlon Brando in “Apocalypse Now”

Ralph Fiennes in “28 Years Later - The Bone Temple”

Oscar Isaac and Sonoya Mizuno in Ex Machina

Tom Hiddleston in “The Life of Chuck”

Michael Fassbender playing Lawrence of Arabia as played by Peter O’Toole in “Alien Prometheus”:

And basically EVERY scene in Jaws, but of course:

Surely, I forgot many scenes/movies. I’m a movie freak and have seen to many movies!

What are your favourite scences?

There already exists a movies discussion thread that several Buzzers are participating in. There’s no need to start another.

This is from Sneakers. 2 of my favorite scenes. The latter definitely made the movie.

Jim Carrey at the pinnacle of his career, in Ace Ventura

Tom Cruise in Edge of Tomorrow. I’m not a fan of Tom Cruise, but a movie where he dies all the time is super! It’s pity that they cut that scene where he died, falling off & into the loo :slight_smile:
Also: Emily Blunt, who plays a badass impressively.

Nicolas Cage in “Wild at heart”: “This is a snakeskin jacket! And for me it’s a symbol of my individuality, and my belief… in personal freedom.”

Also, Willem Dafoe in the “F#ccck meeeee” scene with Laura Dern, which I could not find, unfortunately!

Jack Nicolson and Shelley Duvall in “The Shining”. Every scene in this movie is great, but I like the dynamics between Jack Nicolson and Shelley Duval here.

Somebody I don’t know and the wonderful Michael Ironside in “Scanners”. When I first saw this as a little boy, I was like WTF?
And this was in times that carnage was not common in movies…

Oh, wow! I have NEVER seen it in a non-dubbed version. So you do have different dialects in the US? :slight_smile:
