Do You Have a Favorite Movie Scene, I Have Some Ties
As noted, there are lots of great movies but not all of them have a single scene that really sticks. As I have gotten old, I find I have more than one, here are some I really remember:
- Old Japanese Fisherman waking up and saying "Godzilla!!!) or - When the Porsche 917 12 cylinder engine starts in Steve McQueen's Lemans movie or - Harry Calahan saying "did I fire 6 shots or only 5" or - ????? John Rogers the oldracer |

This is my all time favorite movie scene because of what it means to the "Neski girl".
(Irena Neski, portrayed by actress Oksana Akinshina)

I took it as favorite movie lines. My mistake, it's scenes. Again.
Anyway, one of my favorite lines is Jack Nicholson in "Last Detail." "I AM the f....ing Shore Patrol!"

Interstellar docking scene.
I love the interplay between Cooper and the computer: As they approach the Endurance to attempt to dock… Computer: “It is not possible” Cooper: “No. It is necessary” The computer complies and is now fully committed to the docking attempt A minute later, with Cooper’s ship positioned underneath the Endurance, getting ready to fire thrusters to match the spin of the Endurance, the roles reverse: Cooper hesitates staring up at the Endurance, I imagine he was having doubts at this point. Computer: “Cooper, this is no time for caution” Last edited by ErrorMargin; 05-03-2026 at 08:46 AM.. |

Great sci-fi movie. Two docking scenes there, with the first one f'd up by Dr. Mann, who tried to do it manually with the computer blocked out from helping him. Great scene.

Harry Callahan is a good one but my first thought was the Lobby Scene in Matrix 1 which starts with a one word line: "FREEZE!"
