For me it has to be that bit in Predator where they unload an impossible amount of ammunition into nothing in particular, other than jungle, despite the fact that these guys are supposedly the best of the best.

Cracks me up every time.

The fight scene between Charlton Heston and Chuck Connors in Soylent Green near the end of the movie is an absolute classic, has me in tears everytime.

"I don't like sand..."

I remember seeing that in the cinema when it first came out, a bloke behind me shouted "OH fk OFF!" when that line was forced out, like a massive turd on the face of the film world.

Nick Cage punching a woman while dressed in a Bear suit or Nick Cage being stung by bees

As soon as I saw the thread title I thought someone will inevitably mention the Nicholas Cage in a bear suit scene. It took 5 posts before someone did.
My current favourites are at 1.20 and 3.20 of the following video.

This is Van Damme at his best. Even the men in the scenes with him can't believe what is happening. I giggled for a long time watching these, which are from a film called derailed.

Commando. Chocked full of them, e.g.:

Armie opening the bonnet to his jeep to find that some wires had been cut, but the props guys had blatantly just dumped a random bunch of wires under the bonnet.

Bennett getting zapped on the electric fence (in a basement?!!) which then somehow gives him superhuman strength and is able to rip a cast iron door off a furnace

Bennetts's leather trousers and chain mail vest. S and M on a bad guy!?


Plus countless others...including the ten extras that they keep killing just wih different stick on facial hair and wigs.

I once saw a film called Solaris with George Clooney in it. It was pretty dull so I may not have been paying attention and this may not be accurate but, as I saw it:

Clooney's in a space ship and he's incredibly depressed because he's missing his long-dead wife. Suddenly he sees his wife in the ship. He's stunned.

Then, with barely a word said between them he gently guides her into an escape capsule and fires her off into space. Poom!

Note: it was a dreary film so I may have got distracted and misinterpreted what was happening biggrin

Any film or series where they have a "Scooby-Doo beginning" by which I mean instead of it all being explained at the end, they chuck in enough facts and premises to avoid the need for another hour of film despite most of it being totally implausible or ridiculous.

The other one that always makes me laugh out loud is that in the US the characters can find ANYTHING on the internet so if they want to know about the death of someone in 1964, they go on the 'net and up comes a full newspaper article. They don't even have Google....

They DO have it they just can't say on-screen without paying huge license fees to them. Which they can't afford after overpaying (I mean WAY over...) Nicolas yuckCage to appear.
(As if your MI5 Spooks can actually an track individual terrorist LIVE using CCTV ?? But, that's not a film... read)

smile In "Troy" where Brad Pitt rallies his troops, thrusting his sword skyward to proclaim "The future is YOURS! Take it!!"
If I hadn't been on an airplane, I would've fallen out of my seat. Apologies if I misquoted the line.
