I have several. One is the "It's just a flesh wound" scene from the Holy Grail.

Another is one that never made it to the big screen – it is in the deleted scenes in the unrated version of Meet the Fockers, and it involves a dried baby foreskin and a bug zapper.

Yours?

Oh – and I have to add the "It's like warm apple pie" scene from American Pie. As you can tell, I have a very high brow sense of humor.

Where to begin? I really like a lot of the scenes from A Knights Tale, especially the ones with Chaucer doing his introductions as herald.

I'll have to think about this some.

BIG TIME SPOILER ALERT-MOVIE "THE USUAL SUSPECTS"

My favorite scene is when Kevin Spacey (Verbal Kint) at the end, walks away from the police station and his limp goes away and he straightens out and becomes Kaiser Soze.

Eh, I got nothin'

Another favorite scene is Mel Gibson and Glenn Close in Hamlet when he's confronting her in her bedroom.

HAMLET

"Come, come, and sit you down; you shall not budge;

You go not till I set you up a glass

Where you may see the inmost part of you."

Wow, that's a tough one….so many!

Right off the top of my head, I would like to second the daring girl reporter's vote of the "flesh wound" sequence from Monty Python's Holy Grail.

But another that just gets me rolling everytime is Young Frankenstein the Gene Hackman/Peter Boyle scene….CIGAAARS!!!

"Captain, they're shooting at us. THEY'RE SHOOTING AT US!!"

"Well, shoot back son," the captain advises.

Guess.

One of my favorites EVER is when Gary Oldman as Dracula says to Winona Ryder's Mina Murray:

"I have crossed Oceans of Time to find you…"

Makes me melt every single time I hear it!

John Wayne in "Big Jake."

John Wayne: I haven't butted into anyones business since I was 18 year old, at which time it nearly got me killed.

No sir, not gonna do it!

( Bad guy kicks small boy to the ground.)

John Wayne: Ah, what did they have to go and do that for?

Yep, that would be my favorite.

Hot Fuzz has so many good ones, not sure which is my favorite, perhaps Nicholas Angel explaining what made him become a cop to Danny Butterman in the bar!

I have many, but I love that last scene in "Starman".

At the beginning of the movie, it shows the alien as a simple light form that floats into Jenny's darkened house and observes a picture of Jeff Bridges' character, hence the reason why it looks just like Jenny's late husband.

At the very end, with the close-up of Jenny's face, gazing at the area where the alien goes back to its ship, the movie ends. What did she see? Did she finally see the true form of the alien? The look on her face was a mixture of emotions. Longing, amazement, sadness, anticipation, etc. In that one scene, she conveyed pretty much everything she could! It was one of the most profound moments in film I've seen. (as corny as that sounds about an alien love movie. hehe)

And then the simple melody of the credits starts.

Great scene. Gives me chills to this day when I see it. Karen Allen rocks. /smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':blink:' />

Can we keep doing movie trivia questions here or should we use the Random thread?

There’s a great scene in the movie Highlander when the song Who Wants to Live Forever is playing in the background:

"There's no time for us.

There's no place for us.

What is this thing that builds our dreams

Yet slips away from us?

Who wants to live forever?

There's no chance for us.

It's all decided for us.

This world has only one sweet moment

Set aside for us.

Who wants to live forever?

Who dares to love forever

When love must die?"

The scene is mostly done in a bird’s eye point of view. Filmed in the Scottish Highlands. It is broken into 4 different segments depicting the 4 different seasons. (And, as we find out, also a metaphor for time itself.)

In the final moment, when the immortal Connor greets his mortal wife Heather, we see that he hasn’t aged through the years but she is now an old woman. Just as the lyrics “Who dares to love forever when love must die?” are fading in the background.

Makes the hairs on my arms stand up every time.
