Misery - After using a hair pin to unlock the door to the room Annie has lock him in. Paul is looking for a way to get out of that psycho's house.
He's slowly wheeling himself around and deeper into the house, not knowing that she is on her way back from town and could catch him out of his room.

This is like the most tense part of a movie I have ever seen, it's the first time a film has literally had me on the edge of my seat shouting at the tv.

Fantastic movie.

“The operation was called ‘hobbling’.”


So what are your top movie moments and why?

From the lobby scene to the chopper crash in the original Matrix. Best 25 minutes of cinema I ever saw.

Italian Job- the ending, it's brilliant. When they are hanging off the cliff and Charlie goes foward to try and save the gold, then the film finishes.

One of the funniest Simpson bits ever, along with Dr Zeus, Dr Zeus.

Two memorable ones for me,

Navy Seals - old 80's film with Charlie Sheen in - the crew of a downed helicopter is being held in a building, all tied up to chairs. Terrorists come in, say they're going to kill them, guy raises the weapon to fire the first shot, and the Seal team breaks in through the windows and skylight with a terrific momentum, all but one bad guy goes down instantly in a hail of suppressed fire.

Lord Of The Rings - Fellowship Of The Ring - Bilbo's fareweel speech at the party.

And, just to be different, my favourite tv series moment;

West Wing, last episode of Season 2 "Two Cathedrals" - the president sits alone in the oval office just minutes from having to face the media about hiding his MS disease, and up until this point it's been a certain thing he will not run again. The door blows open, there's a storm outside, and he shouts for his secretary who he has known since being a boy - except she died earlier that week in a car crash. He realises she is dead, before turning to see her, she chastises him for letting her death be his excuse to curse god, and that he only will not run for the presidency again because he fears losing...the camera cuts to a different angle and we see he is talking to no one but himself when replying to her. He leaves the room to go to the press conference with his staff, changed.

Is that the one where he's on his way home for his daughters birthday?

"You know how to work this thing kid?"
"Yeah, just do this, this, and then push this"
"Thanks"
*Fires rocket at bridge*
"I'm filming a movie"

Or something along those lines.

You forgot to mention the bit where he sings.."Oh my God, I was wrong, it was Earth. All along. You've finally made a monkey out of me"

I've seen Falling Down so many times now. I could quote any line of it.

Leon - When they are trying to get him out of his room. What a film!

The Usual Suspects - The end. Don't want to ruin it for anyone.
