Post some of your favourite TV/movie moments.

I re-watched the The Sarah Connor Chronicles season 1 finale last night, and this is certinaly one of my favourite scenes in a TV show:



Johnny Cash is not the usual music you would find in Terminator, but damn it fits so well. :o

One of the most unleashed moments in movie comedy history ever :xD: . Though the town fight scene is also utterly brilliant :D .

Pretty much any scene from Oldboy. But the famous fight scene takes the credit.

3 minutes, one shot, heavy realism.

Skip to 00:55 to go straight to the fight.

Cliché, but nothing like a little Tarantino.

Well, I'd say this is exceptional. Never have I heard a more fitting song for a scene. Ever.



Oh, and this one as well:

I've always thought that this was a great and very fitting intro.

I'd go with this scene too:

Also, the ending to Psycho. The voice acting for the

Meh, Ledger was a great actor, and he was fucking fantastic in that film. But he wasn't a good Joker, too much psycho and too little humour. The Joker in the comics, even at his darkest, most violent incarnation, had this crazy sense of humour. Nolan's Joker took all the anarchistic psychoticness from "The Killing Joke" and "Arkham Asylum: Serious House on Serious Earth" but forgot to include that essential part of his character.

Anyway, while The Boondocks has alot of hilarious and great scenes. This is the one that won its episode an Emmy.



Yeah, MLK just said the N-word.

Yes you've said it before, Heath Ledger wasn't the joker from the comics, boo hoo. He put his own spin on the character and for the purposes of the film played the joker extremely well.

Back ontopic, it's a grim dark film, but powerful stuff. This scene in particular.

Personally I think Ledger was good enough to redefine The Joker. His acting and the vividity of the Joker's personality that he gives it is fantastic IMO. Btw, you should see the awards he got for his performance, it baffled even me: http://en.wikipedia....ath_ledger#Film

Well, you can't really redefine a character like The Joker.

Yeah, sure.

Agree with you on the scene though. Great one.

Truly the most cool film moment of all time. The very first scene in which two of the greatest actors of our age meet.
