Jesus LOTR best scene ever!!

 

Scorsese's Goodfellas. Tooooooo many scenes to go into but for the films geeks:

 

Where Jimmy and Henry meet in the Cafe towards the end. Henry knows hes going to get whacked but doesnt know how. Jimmy asks him to go down to Miami to sort something. At that point Henry knows he wont come back.

 

All the time their sitting there the background of the shot, the street comes in closer and closer whilst Jimmy and Henry remain the same. Scorsese signified this as whilst the two characters remain the same the world around them is changing.

 

Obviously the tracking shot in goodfellas where Henry walks karen through the restaurant, which The Player with Tim Robins upstaged a few years later.

 

"

The start of Goodfellas is a classic for me- "for as long as I can remember I always wanted to be a gangster". After that how can you not want to watch the rest of the film?

"Monty, you terrible cunt"

 

The Rolling Stones scene from Apolcalypse now where the guy is surfing behind the boat....... or the Flight of the Valkyrie attack scene.

 

When they enter the guarded building in the Matrix.

 

The dinner table scene in 'Where Eagles Dare'. Possibly the most confusing plot ever.

 

Clint Eastwood in 'Where Eagles Dare'.

 

Looking for the cat in Alien.

 

The execution in 'Life is Beautiful'. No one on Earth can watch that scene without coughing deeply afterwards.

the end of French Connection 2. Popeye has gone cold turkey to get off the smack after he was forcibly made into an addict and is running exhausted along the docks at Marseille.

Frog 1 on his boat sailing slowly out of the harbour unaware of Popeye chasing after him.

Popeye gets to the end of the pier, Frog 1 looks up as the boat sails past the end of the pier and sees him, he realises who it is and his face drops just a fraction of a second before Popeye shoots him.

A fantastic ending, no shitty music to build tension, just the sound of Popeye breathless and gasping as he is running to try and catch them. Its an amazing final scene.

My favourite scene in any movie is the in Pulp Fiction where Travolta and Samuel L go into the flat of the young lads who've ripped Marcelllis Wallace off.

 

Superb dialogue from start to finish

 

Check out the big brain on Brad

 

That's one mighty fine burger

 

Jules Winnfield: What does Marcellus Wallace look like?

 

Brett: What?

 

Jules Winnfield: What country you from?

 

Brett: What?

 

Jules Winnfield: What ain't no country I ever heard of. They speak English in What?

 

Brett: What?

 

Jules Winnfield: ENGLISH, MOTHERFUCKER! DO-YOU-SPEAK-IT?

 

Brett: Yes.

 

Jules Winnfield: Then you know what I'm saying.

 

Brett: Yes.

 

Jules Winnfield: Describe what Marcellus Wallace looks like.

 

Brett: What, I-?

 

Jules Winnfield: [pointing his gun] Say what again. SAY WHAT AGAIN. I dare you, I double dare you, motherfucker. Say what one more goddamn time.

 

Brett: He's b-b-black.

 

Jules Winnfield: Go on.

 

Brett: He's bald.

 

Jules Winnfield: Does he look like a bitch?

 

Brett: What?

 

[Jules shoots Brett in shoulder.]

 

Jules Winnfield: DOES HE LOOK LIKE A BITCH?

 

Brett: No.

 

Jules Winnfield: Then why you try to fuck him like a bitch, Brett?

 

Brett: I didn't.

 

Jules Winnfield: Yes you did. Yes you did, Brett. You tried to fuck him. And Marcellus Wallace don't like to be fuuced by anybody, except Mrs. Wallace.
