O/T Great moments in films.....

[Heid]

Well, I refused to watch any Lassie film, in fact I used to tape Animal Hospital and get someone to pre screen it for me to make sure there wasn't anything in it that would upset me <g>

Empire strikes back, Just before han gets frozen in carbonite,

Tom Cruise & Anthony Edwards  "Top Gun"  in the bar scene singing  You lost that loving feeling to Kelly McGillis

happened in bars everywhere after that

I always thought Keanu Reeves went downhill after his Bill & Ted masterworks.

There were a few great moments in them

Mr. Ryan: All you boys seemed to have learned is that Caesar is a "salad dressing dude."
------------------------------------------------------
King: Put them in the iron maiden.
Ted: Iron Maiden?
Bill, Ted: Excellent!
[Air guitar]
King: Execute them!
Bill, Ted: Bogus
-----------------------------------------------------
Ted: Who are you?
Bill: Ted, it's the Grim Reaper, dude.
Ted: Oh. How's it hanging, Death?
----------------------------------------------------
"Woah, this is what hell looks like"

Who mentioned the Goonies.....

the goonies, when the fratellis are interrogating chunk

Francis Fratelli : Tell us everything! Everything!

Chunk : Everything. OK! I'll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max's toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog...When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out...But the worst thing I ever done -- I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa -- and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.

Jake Fratelli : I'm beginning to like this kid, Ma!

One teensy girlie film... I direct you to my initial list fine Sir, where it containeth not ONE romance flick, then I just get a bit foamy about a good honest schmaltzy title, and you go all huffy, and bring out a Spielberg Dud. If you want to talk about Spielberg - let's do Duel

I put it to you Sir, you cried at the end of Lassie Come Home when you were 10, and have never admitted it to anyone!

Oooooh

You had a good point till you mentioned some Princess film.

Never seen it, but it's got the word Princess and Bride in it so therefore must be soppy woppy and no self respecting manny would watch it unless in the company of someone he intends to mount later the same evening.

You are allowed to like girly films I suppose Heid. Especially as you're a girl. So I'll shhhhhh up now and leave you to it.

(thought Goonies was Richard Donner, not Spielberg)

The princess bride was a great movie, quite funny. I'm pretty sure it was a mel brooks film which just adds to the appeal.

Seriously - watch the Princess Bride - it's not what you think it is - that's why it works - and the whole point of it.

Yeah it was a Donner film, but it was produced, written etc by Spielberg, and we all know what a control freak Spielberg is - Donner may have the credit for directing, but that aint what happened...

OK Geek alert... interesting story about that scene.

Carrie Fisher was heavily into her drug abuse period around the time of filming of Empire, and she kept having huge problems with her lines.

This scene was meant to be much longer, and loads more lines - after a lot (10+) retakes where Fisher kept messing up, Ford shoved the "I know" bit in as an ad lib, and it worked so they kept it!

The bit in Raiders where Indiana shoots the swordsman - you wanna hear how that happened?

[thetank]

.....ah go on.

Astound us with your trivia

[Newmanseye]

I believe it was supposed to be a sword fight, when harrison stopped and said that his character would not figh, he would simply shoot the swordsman, they all aggreed and I believe thats how that one came about.

[thetank]

I wanna be a geek too.
