THE most famous movie moment
 

i was thinking of it....

the most memorable movie moment, or the most commonly known movie moment.



i'd have to say the darth vader saying 'luke i am your father' is the most commonly known one...



but what of the most memorable moment?

<star wars nerd>
He doesn't say that, so you obviously haven't remembered it very well.

Vader: Obi-wan never told you what happened to your father.
Luke: He told me enough! He told me you killed him.
Vader: No. I am your father.

</star wars nerd>

Anyway...other memorable moments:

- Luke blowing up the Death Star
- U.S. blowing up the vietnamese countryside with napalm in "Apocalypse Now"..."I love the smell of napalm in the morning."
- Jenna Jameson blowing....well, everyone.

"dude where's my car"

"What we have here is a failure to communicate."

Cool Hand Luke

jurassic park, when the trex gets the guy taking a shit

wanna play rough, ok, ok....say hallo to my little fren!!!!!!!

"do you feel lucky punk"

"I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice chianti." *fft fft fft fft*
- Anthony Hopkins, "Silence of the Lambs"

"Bugs! Big damn bugs, man. Big as my fist. Big as a peanut butter-banana sammich, man. Ah, what do I care? I got a growth on my pecker."
- Bruce Campbell, "Bubba Ho-Tep"

"You like this song? Kinda makes me wanna party. I think I'm gonna party right now!"
- Chris Pontius, "Jackass: The Movie"

wait I got that last quote wrong


its

"I know what you're thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I've kinda lost track myself. But being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya punk?"

"I'll be back."

+1

rock:

to many to list.



William Wallace (Braveheart)
-"FREEEDOOOOMMMMM"

Arthur Kirkland (And Justice For All):
-"You're outta order. You're outta order. This whole trial is outta order."

Tony Montana (Scarface):
-"I always tell the truth. Even when I lie."
-"Say Hello To my little friend"

Lots from older movies, I am just taking ones from any movie 1970 +

one of my favs is:

in dog soldiers: "Ewww Sausages" (When his intestines are hanging out after being ripped open)

Your gonia need a bigger boat.

There can't be THE most famous moment, because there are so many movie classics, but here are some off the top of my head:

Raiders of the Lost Ark: Indiana Jones swaps out the idol for a bag of sand, and then gets chased by a huge boulder.

Gone With the Wind: Although most on this board probably haven't seen the movie, it's still regarded as a true masterpiece. The first swear in a movie when Rhett Butler says to Scarlett O'Hara: "Frankly my dear, I don't give a damn," and the scene where he kisses her for the first time.

The Wizard of Oz: "Todo, we're not in Kansas anymore."

Jurrassic Park: The scene at the end where the T-Rex saves all the characters from the Velocaraptors, and then makes his battle cry as a banner which reads, "They ruled the Earth" flies down in front of him.

Star Wars: "I am your father."

Saving Private Ryan: It's still relatively new, but I think everybody can agree the D-Day scene will probably never be re-created as memorably as Spielberg made it.

Psycho: The shower scene.

Forrest Gump: "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get."

Now I'll list just a few that probably aren't regarded by many as great moments:

Schindler's List: The entire movie.

Full Metal Jacket: The opening Marine boot camp scene.

Sling Blade:
Doyle: "What are you doing with that lawnmower blade?"
Karl: "I reckon I aim to kill you with it."

what was that from?

The first time Buford T. Justice and the Bandit meet, at least it is my favorite.

Jaws

This scene has been in countless movies, many of them kinda of making fun of it..

...but it's when Clint Eastwood jumps in front of the President right as the guy with his hand-made gun under the paper napkin fires it at him.

The one scottish dude who got hit in the bare ass with an arrow during the first battle from Braveheart.

"Allllllllllllrighty then!!!!" - Jim Carrey "Ace Ventura: When Nature Calls"

Everyone knows that. There are a few other lines from that movie as well.

Rick: Last night we said a great many things. You said I was to do the thinking for both of us. Well, I've done a lot of it since then, and it all adds up to one thing: you're getting on that plane with Victor where you belong.

Ilsa: But, Richard, no, I... I...

Rick: Now, you've got to listen to me! You have any idea what you'd have to look forward to if you stayed here? Nine chances out of ten, we'd both wind up in a concentration camp. Isn't that true, Louie?
Captain Renault: I'm afraid Major Strasser would insist.

Ilsa: You're saying this only to make me go.

Rick: I'm saying it because it's true. Inside of us, we both know you belong with Victor. You're part of his work, the thing that keeps him going. If that plane leaves the ground and you're not with him, you'll regret it. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow, but soon and for the rest of your life.

Ilsa: But what about us?

Rick: We'll always have Paris. We didn't have, we, we lost it until you came to Casablanca. We got it back last night.

Ilsa: When I said I would never leave you.

Rick: And you never will. But I've got a job to do, too. Where I'm going, you can't follow. What I've got to do, you can't be any part of. Ilsa, I'm no good at being noble, but it doesn't take much to see that the problems of three little people don't amount to a hill of beans in this crazy world. Someday you'll understand that. Now, now... Here's looking at you kid.

Casablanca

"I know kung fu" - Matrix
When Patton calls one of his tropps a coward and slaps him.

When the blonde chick is singing "I sing to the sounds...to the sounds of muuuuusiiiic" and walking over beautiful green hills.

"The hills are alive with the sound of music"

I feel really gay for knowing that.

..and the "blonde chick" is Julie Andrews. rolleyes:

casablanca

"The horror..."

Platoon: Willem Dafoe kneeling down reaching to the heavens after being shot by Berenger....The whole freaking score to that movie was memorable.

Back To The Future: 1.21 jiggawatts

Dumb & Dumber: Kick His Ass Sea Bass!

American Pie: The pie scene. "MILF."

Die Hard: Yippie Ki yay mutherfucker.

lol !

"...Bond. James Bond."


"Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn!"


... Yeah...

In minority report, right after cruise sees his own murder and escapes the building. He gets in the elevator, and is joined by his nemisis, danny witwer. after a brief confrontation, cruise pulls a gun on witwer.
Witwer: "Put the gun away, John. I don't hear a red ball"

right after he says that, and alarm goes off. The look on Witwer(Colin Ferrel)'s face is priceless.

And in the orginal blade, the fight scene in the nighclub at the beginning

Alien : "Game over man! Game over!"

"And shepherds we shall be, for Thee my Lord, for Thee.
Power hath descended forth from Thy hand, that our feet may swiftly carry out Thy command.
So we shall flow a river forth unto Thee, and teeming with souls shall it ever be.
In Nomime Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sanctis"

Ya know, we had to read Heart of Darkness in my AP English class in high school, and we got to watch Apocalypse Now Redux for about a week.
