Favorite Movie Moment of All Time?

Ok, we're talking all time favorite movie moment here. Not the whole movie, just a scene. A scene that you can probably recite the whole dialogue to. Preferably something you've kept in your head for years and years, and the second that movie comes to mind, your scene pops into your head.

So what is it? :D

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe
Attack ships on fire off the shores of Orion.
I've watched C-beams glitter in the dark near Tannhauser gate
All those things will be lost in time
Like tears in rain
Time to die"

Roy Batty, Bladerunner, most memorable scene in any movie ever, for me. Ever time I heard the words in my head I can still hear the pounding of the music and the empty patter of the rain right after, along with the dove's wings.

Easy - Godfather II, young Vito standing on the boat and just staring out onto the New York City skyline (the statue of liberty, in particular). The music is blaring in the background and you can just see a look in his face of having the determination to try and make something of himself. A very classic shot, especially in the context of Vito's ultimate rise to power.

It's a toss up between two...

First one is from Grave of the Fireflies .. the scene where he's building the funeral pyre for his sister, with the scenes of his memories of her throughout the movie. You have to be made of stone for that to not get to you, animated or not..

or...

"Vince, you said before you were waiting for a sign. What sign are you waiting for?"

"Gozer the Traveler. He will come in one of the pre-chosen forms. During the rectification of the Vuldrini, the traveler came as a large and moving Torg! Then, during the third reconciliation of the last of the McKetrick supplicants, they chose a new form for him: that of a giant Slor! Many Shuvs and Zuuls knew what it was to be roasted in the depths of the Slor that day, I can tell you!"

Alright you primitive screw-heads, listen up. See this? This is my boomstick! It's a 12-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart's top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That's right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan; retails for about one hundred nine, ninety-five. It's got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That's right, shop smart, shop S-Mart! - Ash

Aye, fight and you may die, run and you'll live. At least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take our lives, but they'll never take our freedom! Alba gu bra!

OR!

Duke of Argyll: Another one of your "likely lads"? Or are you a buggerer of boys?
Archibald Cunningham: It has been months since I last buggered a boy, though I thought him a girl at the point of entry.
Duke of Argyll: Will, do you hear this? Apparently Mr. Cunningham has trouble telling the difference between arse and quim, what say you to that?
Will Guthrie: I've heard many Englishmen have the same problem.

1) In Star Wars when Han Solo tells Chewy to "punch it" in the Millenium Falcon, and the warp drive turns over but grinds to a halt, so then he has to fix it and hit it with his fist.

2) In LOTR FOTR when Gandalf is about to face the Balrog he turns, sweat pouring from him and says to the others "Run! Run you fools!"

3) In Predator, when all of Arnie's crew have been skinned, he is the last, he prepares some traps for the predator in the dark near that big fallen tree over the ravine, covered in mud, and he stands on the tree, lights his torch, makeshift bow across his back, then holds the torch high and roars the challenge to the Predator to the night.

4) In LOTR FOTR when Sauron's finger is cut off by Isildur and Sauron falls, and the gigantic boom resonates outward felling things in its path for ages.

5) In Ponty Python's Holy Grail, the classic fight with the Black Knight, where his limbs are cut of one by one and he keeps saying "It's just a flesh wound!".

Oooh, so many more!
And yeah, Blade Runner has some cool scenes.

Dory: who are you?
Marlin: Who am I? Who do you think I am?!
Dory: Are...are you my conscience?
Marlin: Yes Dory, I'm your conscience. We haven't spoken in awhile. How are you?
Dory: Meh. Can't complain.
Marlin: Tell me Dory, do you see anything?
Dory: Yea...I see...a light. Hey conscience, am I dead?
Marlin: No, your not dead I see it too.

"Ahhh Blyx. Come closer. Are you not the most loathsome of my goblins?"

"Truly master."

"And is your heart black and full of hate?"

"Black as midnight. Black as pitch. Blacker then the foulest witch."

"Something troubles me. I feel a presence in the forest. One I had almost mercifully forgotten."

"Must be dread in deed to trouble you O'lordship."

"One could not think that they could contain such power. One could rule the universe with it! You must find them. And DESTROY THEM!"

"Uhh..What do they look like lord?"

"FOOL!" *Slams a utensil into the goblins forehead* "Let this serve to remind you. The creature is crowned with a single spiral reaching like a antenna straight to heaven."

"I get the point lord."

"Bring the horns to me."

"Where shall I look sire?"

"There is only one bait for such disgusting goodness. One bait that never fails!"

"Please, you teach me."

"Innocence. Innocence!"

"Look darling it's Jonny Ringo. What do you think? Should I hate him?"

"You don't even know him."

"Something something."

Jonny Ringo and Doc Holiday exchange a few lines in latin.

"It seems Jonny Ringo is an educated man darling. Now I definately hate him."

Ringo stares down Doc Holiday and twirls his guns around showing off, getting an applause from the patrons in the saloon.

All eyes shift to Doc Holiday for his response to Ringo's display.

He pounds his drink down and starts twirling his cup around, mocking the gunplay displayed by Ringo and drawing laughter from everyone in the place.

Edgar Friendly (Dennis Leary in Demolition Man) : I''m the enemy, 'cause I like to think, I like to read. I'm into freedom of speech, and freedom of choice. I'm the kinda guy that likes to sit in a greasy spoon and wonder, "Gee, should I have the T-bone steak or the jumbo rack of barbecue ribs with the side-order of gravy fries?" I want high cholesterol! I wanna eat bacon, and butter, and buckets of cheese, okay?! I wanna smoke a Cuban cigar the size of Cincinnati in the non-smoking section! I wanna run naked through the street, with green Jell-O all over my body, reading Playboy magazine. Why? Because I suddenly may feel the need to, okay, pal?

Barbossa in Pirates of the Caribbean: 'I'm disinclined to acquiesce to your request. Means "no."'

Dark Helmet in Spaceballs: "So, Lone Star, now you see that evil will always triumph because good is dumb. "

Also in Spaceballs when they are "combing the desert" (with giant combs being drug along the sand) and the two guys with the hair pick go "We ain't found shit".

Too many to name, but my favorite movie of all time is HEAT. Al Pacino, Rober Deniro, cops and robbers...doesn't get any better than that:

I had to hit up IMDB too to make sure it was right:

Vincent Hanna: So you never wanted a regular type life?
Neil McCauley: What the fuck is that? Barbeques and ballgames?

Justine Hanna: You don't live with me, you live among the remains of dead people. You sift through the detritus, you read the terrain, you search for signs of passing, for the scent of your prey, and then you hunt them down. That's the only thing you're committed to. The rest is the mess you leave as you pass through

(This is when al pacino walks in and finds out his wife is sleeping with another guy)
Vincent Hanna: I'm angry. I'm very angry, Ralph. You know, you can ball my wife if she wants you to. You can lounge around here on her sofa, in her ex-husband's dead-tech, post-modernistic bullshit house if you want to. But you do not get to watch my fucking television set! (The television set is then placed in the car and thrown out on the street at an intersection)

Thought of another one.

That scene from Scarface where he gets into the argument with his wife in the nice restraunt and made a big comotion.

"Whaht are joo all looking at?"
"Joo need people like me! Joo all are scared to be what joo want to be!"
"Joo need people like me so joo can't point jour finger and say, 'there's the bad guy!'"
"Something something ranting"
"Okay, good night, the bad guy is leaving now!"

Or something like that. That is a cool scene. Sweet movie as I'm sure everyone knows as well. = )

EXCALIBUR...
when King Arthur finally gets the Holy Grail and He takes a sips... than Carl Orff's Carmina Burina-O Fortuna starts playing!!
He gets on his horse starts galloping across the barren wasteland than the flowers and trees bloom as the music gets louder and louder as King Arthur races to meet Mordred in battle...

It pretty much doesnt get any better than that...

but Scarface, Taxi driver and Fight Club are a good choices too...

I had to add my favorite Disney moments!

The entire opening sequence of "The Lion King." It's easily one of the most powerful bits of animation I've ever seen.

Also the part in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame" when Judge Claude Frolo is singing about his lust for Esmerelda in front of his fireplace and it turns into his very own inquistion in front of a jury of his own demons. I thought Frolo was the best bad guy Disney ever created (yes, I know they weren't his original creators), because he was so thoroughly contemptible, yet so very human.

Of course, "The Hunchback" was my favorite Disney animation, because it broke so many of their own boundaries.

No movie has ever hit such a nerve has Fight Club did...

I got my first real corporate job... and i truly felt every line of that movie...

Soo many lines... but the best line that capture the whole movie is the diatribe by Tyler Durden...

Man, I see in fight club the strongest and smartest men who've ever lived. I see all this potential, and I see squandering. God damn it, an entire generation pumping gas, waiting tables; slaves with white collars. Advertising has us chasing cars and clothes, working jobs we hate so we can buy shit we don't need. We're the middle children of history, man. No purpose or place. We have no Great War. No Great Depression. Our Great War's a spiritual war... our Great Depression is our lives. We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars. But we won't. And we're slowly learning that fact. And we're very, very pissed off

"No point in mentioning these bats, I thought. The poor bastard'll see them soon enough. We had two bags of grass, 75 pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half-full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multicolored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers. Also, a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether, two dozen Amyls. Not that we needed all that for the trip, but once you get locked into a serious drug collection, the tendency is to push it as far as you can. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. And I knew we'd get into that rotten stuff pretty soon."
