    Mine is from Batchelor Party starring Tom Hanks. It was the scene in the club for the batchelorette party. Rick and his friends have Nick the Dick serve up some franks to Rick's wife-to-be and her friends. Cracks me the heck up every time I see it.

    (I'd attach the vid if I knew how to.)

    Anyways, what is your favorite movie scene ever?

    1. The last scene from My Dog Skip. It's narration by Harry Connick, Jr. describing the passing of his dog Skip while he (Willie Morris) is studying in England. Diane Lane is the mother whose face conveys the expression of loss.

    2. The scene in To Kill A Mockingbird where Atticus is withdrawing from the courthouse after Tom Robinson is unjustly convicted. As he walks out, and unbeknownst to him, all the courthouse visitors in the balcony rise in admiration for his character and service. The black minister "orders" Jem and Scout to stand in respect-- something they have not grasped.

    3. The rousing speech by William Wallace in Braveheart before the big battle at Falkirk (?) about dying a free man as opposed to dying years later as a pawn of the English.

    the first one that pops to mind is in Texas Chainsaw massacre. It's probably the shortest scene in the whole movie, but damn it was effective. The guy (or girl, can't really remember) has just walked into the house, walks down the hallway into the other room, and before you can even blink your eye, Leatherface grabs him and shuts the door. That's the first time you get a glimpse of leatherface and all I could think of was, what the hell just happened.

    The ending of Usual Suspects. The scene where the naked Asian jumps out of the trunk in Hangover. There are a ton more that I cannot remember right now.

    Mary Poppins isn't even in my top 10 of favorite movies, and I'm not a huge dance fanatic. But for some reason, I could watch this number for months straight and never get tired of it.

    Both scenes in the Lord of the Rings Trilogy that involve Riders of Rohan charging.

    The first being in the Two Towers when Gandalf saves the day, the second in The Return of the King, when all the riders know that the day is hopeless, but ride anyways.

    Also, Empire Strikes Back:

    Leia: I love you.

    Han: I know
