Favorite scene from the 1993 American civil war movie "Gettysburg" based on "The Battle of Gettysburg" on July 1-3rd, 1863. This scene is Colonel Chamberlain's charge on the area known as "Little Round Top". Not to give too much a way but I live not too far away so this movie always meant alot to me growing up. Something about this scene always gives me tears a bit. I think it's just the music and imagery.

Note: There is some minor violence with the musket fire but nothing overly graphic that I could notice. I can gladly remove if it's too much as I don't want to violate rules at all.

Just a neat scene from "The Founder" about Ray Kroc starring Michael Keaton about the story of McDonald's. Great movie and highly recommend it. This movie makes me hungry :lol:

I was a big Titanic fan in childhood. I have the movie soundtrack and several books. Always thought this scene was cool

Note: very minor cursing.

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

There is bad language just so you know.


One of my very favorite movies!

A Star Trek scene but one of my favorite ones from the movie Star Trek: Generations made in 1994. This is the first Star Trek movie I ever got on VHS as a child and loved it. This particular scene always stuck out to me. The special effects in this movie are incredible. I don't want to post too many Star Trek ones so this will be my only one :)

Love this scene from Jurassic Park. Dennis Nedry was an amusing character.

Another famous scene from Jurassic Park. Such a great scene yet I thought this was boring as a kid :lol:

The scene in Forbidden Planet [1956] where we see how truly advanced the Krell were.

The Krell were an extremely advanced civilization that built a huge machine, a cube 20 miles on each side (that's 32 kilometers on each side for most people on Earth). Then, two thousand centuries ago, the Krell abruptly disappeared and that machine has since maintained itself in isolation.

Nineteen years ago an expedition from Earth reached the planet and were almost all mysteriously killed. The two survivors are Dr. Morbius and his daughter Altaira. All of these years Dr. Morbius has been happily studying the Krell technology and shielding his daughter from learning about Earth.

And then a rescue ship from Earth shows up...only to learn that Dr. Morbius does not want to be rescued. He insists the rescue expedition leave, hence, "Forbidden Planet". The rescue ship is unsure how to proceed and while they seek direction from Earth the Dr. gives them a tour of the giant Krell machine.



Oh, and Dr. Morbius used Krell technology to build Robby the Robot. Within the bounds of the movie, Robby is far more advanced than any robot Earth technology could've built. Outside the movie, Robby is a legendary movie star!

There was the A-Team in TV and in a movie. Both had the same A-Team characters, one of whom was their commander: Col. Hannibal Smith, who had a wonderful entrance in the movie.



Both were good dumb fun but the movie had a movie budget to work with.
