The noticeboard bit in 'The Usual Suspects' when you're sitting there going - "oh how did I miss that"
Also the infamous bit in 'Reservoir Dogs' - Michael Madsen, the cop and 'Stuck in the Middle with You'
Pulp Fiction and Braveheart
Spirit of Olias (occasional spectre) Posted Jan 19, 2000
I agree with you on 'The Usual Suspects'! See I have actually seen some films!!
Princess Bride
Andy Posted Jan 19, 2000
"Stop that rhyming, now, I mean it."
"Does anybody want a peanut?"
Princess Bride
Linus...42, i guess that makes me the answer... Posted Jan 20, 2000
If you are talking Princess Bride, my favorite is the swordfight with the ' I'm not left handed' bit in it. Best swordfight ever, by the way.
Other scenes would include the ' I don't tip' scene in Reservoir Dogs, the 'sometimes people just self combust' scene in Repo man, Dennis Hopper on drugs in Blue Velvet..........i better stop before i get onto Apocalypse Now !!!!!
Apocalypse Now
Freaky T Posted Jan 20, 2000
No, don't stop. I love Apocalypse Now. What's your favourite part? I like the monologue when he says "Everyone gets everything he wants. I wanted a mission, and for my sins they gave me one..."
Apocalypse Now
Demon Drawer Posted Jan 20, 2000
Has to be Robbie Coltraine in "Goldeneye" when he feel the coldness of Bond's pistol on his cheek.
"Ah a Smithers PPK semi automatic, only two peopl in the world I know use such a weapon, and I've killed one, how are you Mr. Bond"
Henchmen appear from nowhere and pull weapons on Bond.
BTW we are writing a H2G2 Bond script over at

Apocalypse Now
Linus...42, i guess that makes me the answer... Posted Jan 20, 2000
All i know is whenever i here 'satisfaction' im not thinking of Mick Jagger but of the scene on the boat.
Just about the entire Colonel Killgore part is classic. Who could ever forget "Charlie don't surf" for instance, and the helicopters with the stereo blaring as they come over the horizon....
Apocalypse Now
The Duke of Dunstable Posted Jan 21, 2000
I saw "Fargo" again last night, and the scene when the police woman turns a corner and spots Peter Stormare plugging Steve Buscemi in to that woodchopper is absolutely hilarious. Apalling, yes, but funny. I love the Cohen brothers films. "Raising Arizona" was brilliantly funny, and "Barton Fink" was grandly filmed.
Pulp Fiction
Hoop the Mottle Posted Jan 22, 2000
My favorite aspect of PF is the fact that you can start watching it in the middle and go through the beginning of another run and not miss the story.
Cohens/MIB/Woody & Steve
Hoop the Mottle Posted Jan 22, 2000
Don't forget "Lebowski" , the scene where Bridges and his pals are in the busted up car after making one of the stupidest gaffes in movie scene history.Hilarious.///My favorite scene from MEN IN BLACK - the bulldog when Jones keeps shaking it for a confession and the mutt whines like a dog...Or the scene in SLEEPER when Woody Allen is taken out of the cooler and he's in the motorized wheelchair performing slapstick on the scientists....Or Steve Martin in The Jerk when he's exclaiming how great it is that he gets to sleep in the bathroom ...

The spin-off series "Angel" has its moments, too...
Evil counsellor: "What were your parents like?"
Angel: "Not bad." (Face morphs, fangs appear) "Tasted like chicken."

Try these two bits of genius:
Spike:"Quick, to the Angel-mobile"
and
Angel: "You can be a rainbow, not a pain-bow" (I think)
and while we're on the subject two of my favourite Buffy quotes:
Xander: "It's a statistical impossibility for a sixteen year old girl to unplug a phone"
and
Xander: "I'm 17. Looking at linoleum makes me wanna have sex."
