Your favorite "movie moments" of 2004.

I thought this might be an insteresting topic. I am not asking for you to post your favorite films of the year, only your favorite moments. Even a poor or just average film can contain a great single moment, so all films are open to this topic really. I'll start with a few moments from some of the more high-profile films, and will post more later. Here are a few of mine, in no specific order:

The Aviator - The final shot/line, it really drove home the idea of what the future held for the Howard in my opinion.

Spanglish - The big translation scene between Adam Sandler and Paz Vega/Shelbie Bruce.

Million Dollar Baby - The meaning of "mo cuishle" revealed.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - We "meet" Clementine for the first time.

Kill Bill: Vol. 2 - The buried scene.

The Incredibles - The family tries to have a normal family meal together, but things get a bit out of hand.

Sideways - Virginia Madsen's explanation to Paul on why she enjoys wine.

Finding Neverland - The play in the living room.

Windstruck - The very last scene.

Garden State - Much like ESotSM, we meet Sam for the first time.

Closer - Hmmmm, for this one it's either Clive Owens' performances in the apartment with Roberts after he finds out what she's done, or Natalie's dance.

The dinner scene with Mark Wahlberg and Jason Schwartzman with that Sudanese refugee's foster family. Laughed harder in those five minutes than I did in any other movie from 2004.




Joel and Clementine's final scenes in the apartment.




Morgan Freeman gets his fight.




Larry: You like his cock?
Anna: I love it.
Larry: You like him cumming on your face?
Anna: Yes.
Larry: What's it taste like?
Anna: It tastes like you...but sweeter.
Larry: That's the spirit. Thank you. Thank you for your honesty. Now fuck off and die, you fucked up slag.





The final shot and fadeout.

Damn dude, couldn't you just post the movie titles? We know what the posters look like

Here's go my faves:
Sky Captian...The Giantrobots(he he he ) walking down the streets. Not only does it sound and look awesome on the bigscreen it's also great on dvd.

Shaun of the Dead... Wehn they come out of the bar at the beginning of the plague and the guy down the street moans to their music cues.

The Aviator... When Howard finds his "groove" against the Senator.

more to come as I remember them....

I Heart Huckabees - A lot of great moments in this, mainly anything involving Mark Wahlberg, he is great with the dialogue and persona in this. I third the Schwartzman and Wahlberg dinner table moment.
Before Sunset - The final scene with the song and Delpy.
Coffee and Cigarettes - Buscemi and magpies, "You a bug Bill Murray?"
