    Default Best Movie Moments of all time

    Whats your favorites ??, I have loads of movies but often its just a few seconds that really make the film for me. Trying to decide on my top three stand out scenes that still make me laugh or take a sharp breath from what I have seen lately and had to go with these three ..

    Mongo in Blazing Saddles .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8_RKPGS2vwM

    Indiana Jones .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJOXL...eature=related

    De Niro and Al Pacino in the Coffee shop scene from HEAT .. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cYSzx_zy-98

    The first ones that spring to mind are :-

    Jimmy Cagney in White Heat - I made it Ma. Top of the World.

    Hitchcock's Psycho - The Shower Scene.

    One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest - Nicholson v Nurse Ratchet.

    The Shining - Here's Johnny.

    I know it's an absolute chick flick, but is there any female out there who is not howling when Patrick Swayze is taken up to heaven at the end of Ghost, and he says to Demi Moore 'I love you' and she says 'ditto' It just gets me every time!
    I still miss my ex...but my aim is getting better every day and the next time I'll get a clean shot.....

    I had my bairns convinced that this scene was about Jack Nicholson bursting for the toilet. His wife locks herself in the lavvy and Nicholson (now touching cloth) hacks the door down screaming "Here's Jobbie"

    Chariots of Fire.When Eric Liddle(Ian Charleston)tells the British Olympic Committee that he won't run the 100 metres on a Sunday,as its the Sabbath.This is also seen at the beginning of the film when as he and his family are leaving the church,a young boy playin fitbaw kicks the ball into Liddle.He stops them and says,"Do you not no what day it is.Its Sunday.Meet me here tomorrow morning and I'll give you a ten goal head start."

    Great moments.

    Definitely in Braveheart when King Edward says...

    "The trouble with Scotland is that it is full of Scots!"

    That gets me every time I watch that movie. I feel Edward was a latterday Arthur and feel that he laid the seeds of success that his son quickly squandered.
    God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
    Courage to change the things I can,
    And wisdom to know the difference.
