    What is the cheesiest moment you ever saw in a movie.???
    For me it was the bit at the end of Rambo 3 where Rambo was driving the tank playing chicken with a russian guy in a Hind Helicopter (complete with obligitary war cry "AAAAAARRRRGGGGHHHH"..Why didn't the russian just fly over him??

    Pretty much any scene in Indepence Day featuring Bill Pullman.

    ..or the bit at the end with Randy Quaid, flying the fighter, talking directly into the camera

    Top Gun!

    Iceman: 'you can be my wingman anytime!'
    Maverick: 'Bull****, you can be mine!'

    *Cue searing pinch-harmonic driven guitar solo of the Top Gun Theme.....*

    The look on Tim Robbin's face in that scene is priceless, and also when he's freaking out behind Maverick in the plane in the last dogfight scenes.....

    LOTR : The return of the King. As Frodo is about to board the ship, he turns
    around to look at his buddies.....and stares at em....with the biggest , Cheesiest grin imaginable...... the scene just seems to go on.....and on.....

    Casper Van Dien is pure Dutch Edam in Starship Troopers. It's all good tho. In fact that may be the movie with the most cheese per second out there.

    Strong condender would be Commando tho. That who sequence at the start with him cutting logs and then playing with his daughter is unintentionally hilarious.

    Total Recall.

    Ha ha ha ha ha ha, do you think this is the real Quaid....................... it is!

    + most bits of both Charlies Angels films! (which suck btw)

    oh man, I forgot about starship troopers...."They sucked his brains out"

    The bit at the beginning of Predator where the commandos get off the chopper and Arnie meets Carl Weathers in the building for the mission briefing. Instead of shaking hands they arm wrestle and the camera goes in for a close up of their oiled biceps.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 29,930 ✭✭✭✭TerrorFirmer


    The montage at the beginning of Commando, as well as every second line of dialogue.

    Every scene in Red Scorpion.

    The bit in Rocky, 3 or 4, (too many to remember) where himself and Apollo are running and chuckling on the beach.

    The bit in Rocky, 3 or 4, (too many to remember) where himself and Apollo are running and chuckling on the beach.

    That's most definitely Rocky III (the best and cheesiest Rocky) - it's got three training montages!!!!

    That scene on the beach is brilliant. Carl Weathers is wearing a tank top and the two of them jump about in the surf hugging each other! It's fantastic!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 44,196 ✭✭✭✭Basq


    Lads.. we need clips!

    My 2 cents.. although I love anything John Hughes, it has to be the uber-cheesey cringe-worthy dance sequence in 'The Breakfast Club':



    Pass the Brie please! :eek:

    EDIT: How could I forget this? The whole scene is just nauseating (due to Arnie's acting skillz mainly) but just skip ahead to 2:23 for the payload - that infamous line..

    Indeed. Here's a funny Youtube take on it



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,815 ✭✭✭Charlie


    Armageddon was one big Tescos full of Dairylee

    Just pure cheese, the lot of it (but I oddly will watch it if its on tv)



    Woooo, fcuK Yeah!!!!



    And to cap it all off, you had the cheeseiest movie song off all time

    The Terminator 2 thumbs up moment immediatedly sprung to mind - Basquille got there first with a youtube clip, the dastard :p
    "You had me at hello" is another classic, although works well in the context.

    I think a cheesy moment can be effective if it delivers a decent payoff (hence why some romances can successfully end with a horrifically cheesy and happy ending). However, when it really jars it can be wonderfully humorous. Anything by Arnie generally does the job.

    Recently in Rambo
    the reveal shot of a smiling Stallone with his awful mullet arriving home
    received the biggest cinema laugh Ive heard in a good long while. Cheesetastic!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 178 ✭✭Seeker


    I think the Karate Kid series wins Best Cheese hands down. In Karate Kid 3 Daniel -San is eating a meal with a girl he fancies who made the meal. She asks how he would rate the meal and replies -

    "I give it Eleven out of Ten!"

    Another one is the final scene in Karate Kid 1. We know Daniel -san has been learning Karate so he had defend himself yet he still gets the **** kicked out of him. ( Even in Karate kid 3 when he's the champ he still gets the **** kicked out of him.) Anyway at the last scene , his nemesis who he beats in the crummy tournament (that doesn't help him at all in real life )exclaims "You're alright Laruso!"

    PS I love you is without doubt the single cheesiest movie I have EVER seen.

    It was 90 minutes of mind numbing stilton.
    Every time something cheesy happened I couldnt help but tut or sigh or make a smart comment.
    Needless to say my G/F wasnt impressed with me.
    God that movie sucked.

    it's been a while since I've seen it but wasn't there a bit in Commando when he was robbing a gun store, picked up a rocket launcher and the girl that was with him said something like "That's so you"..or am I getting it mixed up with Terminator 2...Ah poor Arnie "Stilton"egger.. He sure is geting it in this thread!

    'Stilton'egger? Gouda one. The end of episode 3, Vader's 'Noooooooooooo!'. Pathetic. Quite frankly I 'camembert' it.

    That was emmental scene, could'nt understand why it was there cus it took away from the whole film. What about this scene tho, wait for the bit at the end, 'what does it take?.....what does it take...to change the essence of a man?.....' you gotta love seagal.....

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,921 ✭✭✭✭Pigman II


    It's poetic. It's meant to match the bit in ROTJ where Vader lets out a strange scream after getting his hand chopped off. I'm surprised so many people have trouble with it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    This film is dedicated to the gallant people of Afghanistan. from Rambo III..........nuff said.

    "No sacrifice, no victory" What Shia says to Optimus in TrannyFormers.............in fact, that movie had nothing BUT bad lines *shudders*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,359 ✭✭✭Declan A Walsh


    Film's Cheesiest Moment?

    Easy (or is that Easi!):

    Wallace and Gromit: The Curse of the Wererabbit : where Wallace says "hmmm, nice cheese".

    You're thinking of the scene where Arnold picks up the minigun in Terminator 2. Similair though.
    The cheesiest moment in the history of film is when Whistler throws Blade his sunglasses in Blade II before Blade gets proper stuck in. Awesome, but cheesy as hell.

    i have to confess to loving cheese. if done well it can be brilliant. as mentioned arnie seems to pop up in near all the film i can think of. the running man for instance had LOADs of cheesy one liners

    arnie: " ill be back"

    host : " only in a re run"

    female lead : " what happened to hacksaw"

    arnie : " ee ad to spliiit "

    pure gold. :)

    ditto for end of days

    arnie to satan : " go to 'ell"

    say what you like about 80's films but they were immenses dumb fun. pity theres no up and coming john carpenter out there to supply us with a 21st version of stuff like big trouble in little china or escape from new york. every thing seems to have to be fecking "worthy" now :(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 71 ✭✭My name is Todd


    Commando's climactic scene:

    Arnie (after launching a pipe he tore off the wall through Bennett's abdomen) - 'Let off some steam Bennett'

    Classic fromage.

    Go get a movie called 'Sleep with Me' featuring Quentin Tarrantino playing a character at a party ranting about the gay sub-plot in Top Gun. It's one of the funniest things you'll ever see.

    Forget that - isn't there anything youtube doesn't have?:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JW9YutYlUHo

    Pigman à do, you beat me regarding Independence Day. It's a platter of miniature cheese cubes on sticks.

    Gotta agree with you on the 80's films..Pure Goldmines of Cheese (Cheesemines???)..The only thing close to them these days is the current crop of WWE films (The Marine, The Condemned). It seems all they're interested in is how do squeeze in as many 80's cliches and cool explosions!...and "witty" 1 liners


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 36,634 ✭✭✭✭Ruu_Old


    More Arnie. Couldn't come up with something better? :)

    To Satan: "Oh, you want to fuck with me? You're a fucking choir boy compared to me! A CHOIR BOY!"

    Predator 2
    "So you cooked up a bullshit story and dropped the rest of us in the MEATGRINDA!"


  • Hosted Moderators Posts: 18,115 ✭✭✭✭ShiverinEskimo


    +1 to Vaders "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO" in Episode3.

    *shudder*


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭navin.r.johnson


    Arnie's one liners arn't so much cheese as just plain ol' good natured post homocidal banter. The "Stick Around" in Predator, or how about "Pleeeze do not distuurb my friend, he is DEAD tired" from Commando.
    Anyway, I really just wanted to post 3 words..............Patch f*cking Adams.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 71 ✭✭My name is Todd


    In Cobra Sly Stallone tears up to supermarket hold-up, the criminal says 'Get the f*ck out of here, or I'll blow the place up', Cobra says 'Go ahead, I don't shop here'

    Brie-lliant.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭navin.r.johnson


    Another Arnie one from Raw Deal. He's having an argument with his drunkard wife, she throws a ridiculously large chocolate cake she made at him, it splatters all over the wall. Arnie says with rehearsed seriousness "You should not drink...and bake". Priceless.

    John Rambo: Why'd you come back?
    Sarah: Waiting for you.
    John Rambo: I told you before, I can't help you.
    Sarah: Well we need to go and help these people, we're here to make a difference, we believe all lives are special.
    John Rambo: Some lives, some not.
    Sarah: Really? If everyone thought like you, nothing would ever change.
    John Rambo: Nothing does change.
    Sarah: Of course it does! Nothing stays the same.
    John Rambo: Live your life cause you've got a good one.
    Sarah: It's what I'm trying to do!
    John Rambo: No, what you're trying to do is change what is.
    Sarah: And what is?
    John Rambo: Go home.

    "Is it raining? I hadn't noticed" from Four Weddings and a Funeral

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,988 ✭✭✭constitutionus


    should i be ashamed for owning half of these ? :):)

    was watching "they live" on DVD recently. that fight scene in the alley , its just hysterical. im telling you these 80s flicks are great with a beer.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 75 ✭✭navin.r.johnson


    Another one that really grated on me was What Dreams May Come. Just Robin Williams' face grinning.

    God yes :D

    As for mine

    1- Rocky giving the speech in IV that caused the single handedly caused the collapse of communism

    2- Nicholas Cage in Con Air with the "why couldnt you just put the bunny back in the box?"

    3- Wesley Snipes, Passenger 57, advicing the villain on gambling
