Scene from "The Godfather" Michael and Vito Corleone in the Garden discussing Don Barzini. Love this movie and a masterpiece.

A neat scene from the beginning of the 1979 movie "The China Syndrome" starring Jack Lemmon, a young Michael Douglas and Jane Fonda regarding an incident at a nuclear reactor and an ensuing cover up. I always thought this was a neat scene. Great movie and definitely recommend! This clip has some minor language.

Great idea King Kat! This is from the 1993 movie "The Firm".



Wow great scene! No one could make it more believable than Paul Sorvino, in terms of playing someone in organized crime.


Thank you, King Kat! I agree. Paul Sorvino did a terrific job and he's an awesome actor.

From the 1986 film Blue Velvet. This is the beer at Ben's scene.

There is bad language just so you know.


I like the confrontation between Galadriel with emergent Sauron in "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" and have replayed it about twenty or thirty times.

I feel this is one of the most intriguing I have ever seen; it is shot in black and white and Steve Martin ties in a bunch of vintage scenes from old B&W movies

Love this scene in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Loved seeing this in theatres when I was little. Palpatine is definitely one of my favorite characters and Ian McDiarmid is terrific. I hope he gets his own series one day maybe showing his rise to a Senator.

I love this opening scene from "The Hunt For Red October" (1990). Love the music and just the whole opening.
