Greatest Movie Scene of All Time - Nominations Thread

[T-Dogz_AK47]

second #12 - THIRD!!

It's in: T-Rex attack - Jurassic Park

sk

That has already been thirded. There is no need for a 'fourth'.

Never mind Mike, I see you meant in the official entrants column. I'll check the edit history. There were two entries there, The showdown in TG,TB,TU and Showdown at House of Blue Leaves, and you put them there. They were then moved by an anonymous user to the second column. Looking through the last page of the thread, they were indeed not thirded, so that's what happened. Big thanks to whoever it was that caught that!

I moved them. The Showdown at the House of Blue Leaves had not been thirded by Webstar1000 as listed, but only seconded by myself. Although I very much want this scene to be included and very much hope that it will be thirded, its inclusion into the tournament needs to be legitimate.

I moved the scene from The Good, The Bad and The Ugly because Feev did not make a confirmed second, only a mention that he might do so if no one else would. RUBE's 'third' effectively became a 'second'.

I can't believe the Opera scene from Godfather III past by with a glance... That scene gets me every time, and he doesn't even say a word!

As I mentioned before, I'm not helping a Godfather III scene into the tournament before a Godfather I or II scene. I'm waiting for somebody to nominate the baptism scene from Godfather I, but nobody has done so yet. Maybe they consider it a sequence, I personally consider it a scene. I'll nominate it soon if nobody else does.

Mike, if you're waiting for something from the original Godfather film to be included, how about 'thirding' the following classic scene....?

Film: The Godfather
Director: Francis Ford Coppola
Year : 1972
Spoiler: None






"What have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? If you'd come to me in friendship, this scum who ruined your daughter would be suffering this very day. And if by some chance an honest man like yourself made enemies, they would become my enemies.... And then, they would fear you."

Cinematic gold, right there!

I want to nominate a scene from The Godfather films but I haven't seen either in years, and never watched the 3rd. I'd probably have to go with the stellar ending to the first film.

Seconded.

Nice one brother. I remember being BLOWN away watching this scene in theaters.. I went back again to see it because it was so breathtaking.

[amd013]

That was already thirded, frik.

Unless there was an edit, this is the first 2nd of the train fight from "From Russia with Love" (or at least according to the online doc).

Nomination #9

Scene: Who's on First
Movie : one night in the tropics
Year: 1940
Director: A. Edward Sutherland
Spoilers: None - unless you're still wondering who's on first

Start the video at the 31:40 mark to 35:15 mark. Unfortunately it is a shortened version, but I think it is the only version actually in a movie.

Spoiler:

For a fuller version watch this (not my nomination, but everyone should see it in its entirety, it is an American classic comedy skit.

Feev wasn't sure if he could second the film, but I believe he could, so I just counted it. He doesn't come around here much, so I'm trying to include him as much as possible.

Can I also "third" the Godfather scene from T-Dogz?

Webster, the Matrix scene you are referring to is from "Reloaded" I belive. Not "Revolutions", FWIW.

Hi Bill,

They will only let you "second" or "third". They won't let you do both at the same time - you have to wait for other people to post 5 nominations/seconds/thirds in between unfortunately.

[Merlin1958]

Okay, so then the second for CHL is good?

No biggie. Just FYI is all.

I don't want to be that guy, but I don't see an official Nomination for the Cool Hand Luke scene.

I see needfulthings making a post responding to the confusion with some of the bookkeeping on the online doc.

If the intention was to officially nominate the film, let me know and we will count it and the second it received.

Exactly, how "official" would you like it? This is a really stupid exercise.!!!!!!
