The infamous scene in which Indy shoots a marauding and flamboyant swordsman was not in the original script.

After several unsuccessful tries, Ford suggested "shooting the sucker." Steven Spielberg immediately took up the idea and the scene was successfully filmed.Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

The "Rescue Morpheus" scene from The Matrix is one of my favs.

You dig." :))"We will go through our federal budget – page by page, line by line – eliminating those programs we don’t need, and insisting that those we do operate in a sensible cost-effective way." -President Barack Obama 11/25/2008

Northwest Passage - Great Hollywood Lesson of Leadership
The Wind and The Lion
Jingoistic as hell and American Imperialism at its worst but its an awesome early 20th Century Thunder Run
Yeah, its Hollywood, but it made a huge impression on a 10 year old when I first saw it....and I still love it
I just about wet my pants laughing at this everytime I watch it!!

I love Full Metal Jacket just because I like comparing it to my Basic training experience. Not as much yelling and cursing.
You're right, 7th, I loved every single second of Basic (in retrospect, at the time it was fairly hard), and I would go back now and do it in a split second.Meddle not in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

I absolutely LOVED that scene in "The Wind and the Lion". That was the best of the only two parts of the movie worth remembering. The other worthwhile part(s) is that Brian Kieth played the most accurate version of Theodore Roosevelt ever. He had the look and also had the voice.
The worst of course was Sean Connery playing an Arab Chieftan with a Scottish accent.Able to leap tall tales in a single groan.

Two scenes from True Lies. Can't find the clips for them, so I will attempt to describe them.
1. The opening scene from Ahnold sneaking into the secured compound all the way to the escape down the snowy slope. He actually reloaded his Glock before emptying the magazine! The best part was when he told Tom Arnold: "could you lean back a second?" BLAM! BLAM! Two more guards fell down.
2. Tom Arnold tried to stop Aziz from escaping just outside the mall. Aziz turned around and let loose a mag of AK47 rounds. Tom Arnold hid his fat ass behind a lamp post that's only 1/3 of his profile. All the rounds either miss completely or impacted on the lamp post. Tom emerged from behind the lamp post, checked over his body, taps his crotch, and then blows a kiss to the lamp post."Only Nixon can go to China." -- Old Vulcan proverb.

Rusty....spot on. I think he is one of the great underated actors.
