OK Movies:

Shawshank - when he emerges from the sewer into the rain. Yeah its a standard pick so let's move on....

The 25th Hour - a brilliant monologue at the end from Brian Cox (spoiler alert) where he describes what would happen if they just kept driving instead of taking the exit to jail where Ed Norton is supposed to report. Its one of the best 10 minutes of film ever made.

Out of Sight - the love scene between Lopez and Clooeny where it cuts between the conversatoin in the lounge and the steamy stuff. A very nice love scene that isn't cliche

Three Colors Red - The scene between the main character and old man in the auditorium. Brilliant foreign movie.

Karate Kid - The final fight of course.

Backbeat - the scene between John Lennon and Astrid in the lighthouse.

Bounce - yeah this moved sucked ass but there was a nice little moment that i quite liked during the "dating montage" where Paltrow and Ben are in a cafe. Young girl emerges from the washroom heading back to the table to her date but she's got a piece of TP trailing behind her. Paltrow gets up and steps on the TP so its comes off w/o the girl or boy realizing. Yeah. a stupid little moment but touches like this can really make a crap movie tolerable. Moving on...

Notting Hill - love the scene where Julia Roberts comes back to the book store and says her "I'm just a girl..." line. I'm not a fan of Roberts but she was very good in this role.

Grand Canyon - Scene when Glover rescues Klein in the hood. Particularly this line:
Simon: Man, the world ain't supposed to work like this. I mean, maybe you don't know that yet. I'm supposed to be able to do my job without having to ask you if I can. That dude is supposed to be able to wait with his car without you ripping him off. Everything is supposed to be different than it is.

Neverending Story - When the kid loses his horse. Gets me every time

The Iron Giant - "Suuuuuuperrrrr Mannnnnnn" If you've seen the movie you know what I''m talking about.

Prince Bride:

Inigo Montoya: Hello, my name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father: prepare to die. Now, offer me money.
[slices Count Rugen's cheek]
Count Rugen: Yes.
Inigo Montoya: Power too. Promise me that.
[slices Count Rugen's other cheek]
Count Rugen: All that I have and more. Please...
Inigo Montoya: Offer me everything I ask for.
Count Rugen: Any thing you want.
Inigo Montoya: I want my father back, you son of bitch.

Brilliant!

Rob Roy - final sword fight

The Sweehereafter - when Ian Holm tours the empty bus. Creepy.

Unbreakable - the scene in Grand Central Station when Bruce Willis discovers his powers

Strange Days - under-rated action movie but in particularl I enjoy the end credits of all things.

Last of the Mohicans - the final fight when Daniel Day Lewis and his father chase down the dudes that killed his brother.

Whew I guess that's enough. Sorry for the long post. I like movies.
