I thought it would be fun to post your all time favorite cinematic moments.  For me, it’s impossible to choose between two, both ending scenes from two of my favorite films.  Both give me the goosebumps each and every time I watch.  Both are about three and a half minutes long.  And together they make up the best 7 minutes of film I’ve encountered.  They are offered below for your viewing pleasure:

When I first saw this movie (it’s one of those movies I watch everytime it’s on) I knew Hopkins would win the academy award. If he hadn't, the awards would have has to be rigged. I love how intense he gets into character....

Man he was phenomenal in that role.  What a great, classic scene.  Isn’t YouTube great where you can just pull these things up and watch?

Ok, I'm a big wuss, but I get tears in my eyes during this scene.  You know what though, I feel sorry for those that don't.  

 

 

Saving Private Ryan was an exceptional movie, as most Spielberg movies are. People who kneel for the anthem won't get this scene. Sorry to be political, but this is what the flag stands for.

Side note: If you really want to check out whether acting is good or not, try viewing a movie with the sound off for a minute. Everything you see is acting. It's kinda funny sometimes, especially if you have seen it before.

No baddog, they won't get the scene, and they won't get the movie.  Players in the NFL think they're big and bad, but most of them wouldn't hold a candle to those guys who stormed Omaha beach.  They don't have the courage or guts for it, and sacrifice for love of country is not happening.  Sadly today, few would understand what it means.

I'd feel remiss if I didn't include a clip from Cool Hand Luke.  A movie with a bunch of great lines, including, Sometimes nothing is a real cool hand.

 

And a phrase my kids were all to familiar with growing up, Spend the night in the box.

 

 

My favorite english class in college, and I took several many times over, we would watch movies and write about them and Cool Hand Luke was one of them. Loved the movie.

      Columbia University Protest Response

      By bullets13 · Posted

      This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up   Glad to see some of this happening.  I'm sick of the anti-american  and anti-Israel nonsense that's been allowed at some of the most prestigious colleges our country has to offer.  In this case Columbia has had 108 student protestors arrested and trespassed, suspending them from class and housing.  This younger generation thinks they can do whatever they want.  I'm glad the tides are starting to turn and these kids are starting to get a lesson in what happens when you act like entitled idiots.   I know that I'm not as conservative as some of you guys on here, but for the life of me I can't figure out why there are so many thousands of anti-american foreigners up in the northeast.  For me, the very first time you get caught participating in one of these protests, especially if you're burning flags, holding a sign criticizing america, etc., you're deported if you don't have citizenship.  If you have a visa, it's revoked.  If you weren't born here, you're sent to where you were born and not allowed back.  I have no issue with diversity, but why on earth do we allow people to come here who hate us?  Send them back.

      Answer my question. You were bragging about all of the states that support Texas. How are they sognificant? Can't be for political purposes. Soldier may submit a 1-A-0 conscientious objector application when the Soldier is sincerely opposed because of religious or deeply held moral or ethical (not political, philosophical or sociological) beliefs to participating as a combatant (including training in tactics or weapons) in war in any form
