Caddyshack and the Baby Ruth bar, the music from Jaws, DOODIE, and Bill Murray,
It's no big deal and takes a bite. And Ted Knight was a hoot. He was great in Mary Tyler Moore too.
What's yours?

The "Yo, Homie, is that my briefcase"? scene from Collateral. The dugout shooting from either version of True Grit. The D-Day landing from Saving Private Ryan. The "top of the world, Ma"! finale of White Heat. The AirMobile assault from Apocalypse Now.
To name a couple.

I hadn't seen any of those. I liked the Act of Valor.
The shootout in the movie Heat I liked but I'm not sure how realistic that would be.

The only way to drink beer.

Probably not my all time favorite but a good one.
Ending scene, Planet of the Apes.

Roy Batty’s death scene in Bladerunner makes the movie for me. I’m not a huge fan of the film as a whole, but if it’s on I’ll stop what I’m doing and watch it just for that scene. It’s brilliant and partly ad lib.

Same thing with Quint’s monologue in Jaws (a film I do love all the way through).

A little scene I love but most people don’t care about one way or another is Clint taking that long pull of whiskey in Unforgiven when they tell him Ned was killed. You can see that veneer of civilization he put on for his dead wife fall away and the real William Munny coming back. The Kid sure saw it. It’s beautifully shot and easily my favorite Eastwood scene.

But my favorite guilty pleasure: “It's not what you did, son, that angers me so. It's who you did it to…”
If I hear that I’m watching the movie Every time it’s on. Much to my wife’s annoyance. There has never been a scene that set up a character as an absolute unstoppable badass as that. From there to the phone call is my favorite part of the movie.
“What did he say?”
“Enough.”

Crap. Now I have to watch it.

This was cinematic perfection.

Too many scenes, too many films in history, but here are two from the top of my head today:
