I just recently saw “There Will Be Blood” in theatres. The moment during the baptism when Daniel screams “I Abandoned My Boy!” had me sitting there, awestruck. His performance has to be the best performance that I have ever seen in a movie. I have never seen a character that is so human and yet so ruthless at the same time. It was timeless and will inevitably go down as one of the best performances ever.

One of the most memorable movie moments for me is that scene in The Crying Game where Fergus finds out that Dil is really a man (up until that point, he thought Dil was a woman). I didn’t see the movie until several months after it came out, so I already knew about that particular scene . But even though I knew exactly what to expect, I was still completely shocked when I actually saw the scene.

When I went to see Jurassic Park with some friends, it was a dark and stormy night. During the scene where the kids are trying to hide from the raptors in the kitchen, there is a moment where one of the raptors jumps out from behind a panel and at that exact moment, there was an enormous blast of thunder right over our heads outside. I literally fell out of my chair.

I think my favorite experience was during the closing scene in Fellowship of the Ring. A large black woman got up and said, “Oh, hell no!” in a tone that only black women can get away with, I guess she didn’t realize it was a trilogy.

My favorite has to be the scene right before Doc Holliday dies while Wyatt Earp is visiting him in the Asylum in Tombstone (best movie ever). “Live. Live for me Wyatt.” Get’s me everytime. So many good scenes in that movie

My little teenie bopper self cried like a baby when Leo DiCaprio died in Titanic. I was 14, I had never bawled so hard in the theaters in my life. Maybe it was the hormones or maybe I truly felt that what Jack and Rose had was real.

I also enjoyed the very end of Pleasantville, while Fiona Apple’s version of “Across the Universe” swells. Again, it was something I saw around 14-15, but it made an enormous impression on me. It had never occured to me until then that self-expression and the freedom to be “you” was infact that–a freedom.

ok, so i was watching Happy Feet with a guy friend, and if you’ve seen the movie, you know there’s a massive credit line, because of the songs in it. We were two of eight people in the theatre, so we just got up and started dancing some ridiculous form of swing dance. It was great, and those isles are not wide enough to dance well in, i blame them.

One not so special night, my mother and I decided to take in a movie. We decided on the movie, Saved!.

For starters, never have a I seen such a mash-up of people: from teens there to see a movie that makes fun of the Christians, to youth groups, to little old biddies that were excited to see a film about Jesus in the theatres.

At one point in the movie, the mother figure is watching a Bible quiz show and the question, “What prophet offered up his son as a sacrifice to God in the Old Testament?” In the movie, the mother answers “Moses.” But a couple rows ahead of me, a lady exclaims, “It was Abraham!!”

The entire movie was kind of surreal considering the odd mix of people in the theatre, but that one lady just made my heart happy.

On a college road trip to Boston, a high school girl friend took me to see Harold and Maude in a theater where the flick had been playing every night for years. She would not tell me anything about the movie. I will never forget the strange feeling I had when everyone in the theater started laughing hysterically when Bud Cort (Harold) opens the movie by methodically committing suicide only to have his mother find him and blurt, “I suppose you think that’s very funny!” Those who were in on the joke thought it was very funny indeed. After a few more fake suicides, I too was in on the joke, but I still recall fondly that most memorable movie moment.
