Jaw dropping moments and twists in films and TV shows

IvaBigWun

Those moments that stay with you long after you leave the cinema or switch off the TV

In Seven, the great David Fincher film, when

the van comes around the corner. The entire room was in silence, then the head on the box scene happened

and our jaws hit the floor.

In Dexter, at the end of season

4. Amazing, very dark and unpredictable.

In Lost at the end of season 3.

"we have to go back Kate". Flashbacks are now flashforwards. A genius twist by the writers.

The Usual Suspects. Everyone knows this one by now surely?

The ending does however make the majority of the flashback scenes redundant

Matchstick Men. A very under-rated film with a great twist.

Conman Nicolas Cage’s long-lost daughter is actually a con-artist who teamed up with his partner in crime to rob him out of his fortune

When Jaws got blown to bits at the end of the movie I reckon his jaw dropped all over the place.

That bit in Jaw Carriers 3 when John drops the jaw he's carrying when he's running away from the cops after the party.

That was great.

Probably the best jaw dropping moment of the whole series.

The red wedding.

Jaw-droppingly sh*t you mean, right?

There was no reason

for the dude to be lying on the ground all the time. He could have just bugged the place. It was stoooopid!

Vito Corleone

+1 on "Matchstick Men", one of my favourite films. Everybody watch it.

"Oldboy" deserves a mention, didn't see that twist coming.

zcorpian88

The ending of the tv show "Harpers Island" wasn't expecting that!

Whoever never watched it, watch it!

I saw this in a movie about a bus that had to SPEED around a city, keeping its SPEED over fifty, and if its SPEED dropped, it would explode. I think it was called, "The Bus That Couldn't Slow Down."

stefan idiot jones

When Bobby Ewing didn't die. It was all just a terrible dream.

The whole fu@kin' series ?

What was jaw dropping is that those brain washed sherman tanks bought it like they bought the lone shooter in '63, and Marilyn's overdose, and Chappaquiddick.
