    You know the times when you see a movie clip and it makes you seeth with jealousy?

    What's yours?



    Mine is that bit at the beginning of the first Pirates of the Caribbean where Sparrow is riding that sinking ship into Port Royal.


    Everything I love represented in that scene: adventure, travel, never staying in one place too long, diversity and negative liberty.



    Brings a tear to my eye does that scene.


    :(

    Any given scene from any given porn movie.

    Seriously, the bit in Arthur 2 when he walks into has mansion and yells enthusiastically, "honey, I'm home!!! We're poor!"

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    Actually, I frequently find that scenes from my own life and my friends/colleagues are like damn movie moments with their sheer ridiculousness and hilarity.

    Also, what the hell, people on this thread with close to 1000 posts since joining in 2008.
    Maybe I need to post more...

    I think that was the only ghostbusters toy I didn't own. I'd love to know what happened to them.. such a shame.

    One of my 'damn movie moments' is a classic.....girl drops papers and while girlishly gathering them, John Cusack/Jake Gyllenhaal/insert your own (name) comes along to give her a hand.
    In real life, when you drop papers, people give loud, exasperated tuts and walk around you.
    And in real life, I don't girlishly gather papers...I'm usually cursing like a docker.

    Lost in Translation - the relationship that Bill Murray and Scarlett J have.

    Yep pretty much any cool martial arts stuff. I remember watching the Bruce Lee films when I was a kid, then everybody going out kicking the tar out of each other.

    Esp. where one lad just mills throw 100's of lads like this
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=related&v=K06wDn3XsZE

    Batman Begins had some nice gadgets too.

    Jackie Chan, not the fight scenes but the way he just bounces off wall to hop over a gate, or the free running at the start of Casino Royal

    Remember the poster for the movie,
    And most seem to forget/overlook a very important point in that oh so romantic film, Julia Roberts was a dirty whore!
