Tombstone is one of those movies you never get tired of watching.

Folks may wonder why I picked this particular scene out of many great and better Buffy moments. It is for two reasons. First, the death of Buffy's mother always reminds me of when my father passed unexpected around the time the episode aired. It is still very powerful for me.

The second reason is that I was a huge Anyanka fan. She was not one of the original Scooby gang but I loved the character like she was. This was one of Emma Caufield's best scenes in my opinion.

I can’t post it, but the scene from Boomerang about the mushroom shirt(coordinate) is pure gold

Agreed. I loved her character.

So, a little bit of an ice breaker, if we can. What are everybody's favorite clips? Could be a movie or a TV show, just be mindful of the board rules. Nothing over the line, if you please.

Here's one of mine. I always liked this one. "I Want One!"



And........ Go!

Poor Happy.

OK, so a couple of things here........

1. There really is no bad Romanoff/Scarlett sceen.

2. You only like that one better because of the little black dress.....

Yes... And, yes to both statements.

Great scene, but if you're gonna go with Natasha Romanov, I prefer this one:


I love how Coulson hangs on the phone like he's listening to hold music.

The reverse handstand flipback is still one of the best fight choreography moves I have seen in a movie.

Darn, having trouble posting a video clip. Nonetheless, I offer the following:

John Wayne's expression in "Big Jake" when someone says, "... We thought you were dead".

And,

Thor's "Immigrant" song entrance in "Ragnarok"

A personal opinion concerning one of my favorite clips. It is something I have occasionally griped about over the years here.

I was in my early twenties when I first watched Aliens. Even though I knew I was young, I thought I was an avid enough movie lover at the time. In my head (lol), I 'knew' what most movie critics would agree is the best acting.

Of course, I was totally wrong.

Without a doubt, the Academy considered Sigourney Weaver's performance as one of the best that year. It nominated Weaver along with Marlee Matlin (Children of a Lesser God), Sissy Spacek (Crimes of the Heart), Kathleen Turner (Peggy Sue Got Married), and Jane Fonda (The Morning After) as Best Actress. The nomination was a personal vindication in my eyes that critics of the movie, who said science fiction should not be taken as seriously as drama, etc., blah blah blah), had sticks up the anus.

I saw the other actresses' performances. They were deserving of their nominations without a doubt. Even so, I thought Weaver had a really good opportunity the very moment I saw the scene I posted in the thread. That particular scene was shown at the awards BEFORE they announced the winner. How could Weaver lose?

Matlin won.

That crap still hurts my soul.

How many of us have re-watched (or watched once) Lesser God, Crimes, Peggy Sue or Morning After? Me? One time each. Aliens? I have lost count. What is one of the main reasons why I love re-watching Aliens?

Answer: Sigourney Weaver.

People can disagree with me. Weaver was robbed.
