Post your favorite single shot
Like the title says, post your favorite single frame from any movie. Post something that if you could blow it up big enough you would frame it as art. Post something that has special meaning for you or that just makes you laugh, cry, etc. (Also try to list which movie the screencap is from, so this doesn't turn into a "what movie is that from?" thread)

What is the best way to make a screen capture?
|
It differs from program to program. I am using InterVideo WinDVD 4 and in that there is a camera icon that will grab the screen I want. It saves it as a bmp file and in Photoshop I bump the size down to about 85% and save then it as a jpg.

Thanks a lot. It seems I have that same type of button in the program that I'm using, DVD X Player. Here are the first two frames that I thought of as soon as I saw this topic:

I have lots of favorite single shots, but this is the first that came to mind:

I can probably pick out a cool still from just about every movie, but these are the ones that stood out at first glance thru my collection. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...fthelement.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2.../twotowers.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...chingtiger.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...l/musicman.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...cherrymoon.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...ulpfiction.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...diesladies.jpg |
the 11 minute opening shot from Werckmeister Harmonies is my favorite.

Buffalo '66 It's a capture I found online. I'd rather it be from a bit earlier in the scene, when the two are spread apart on the bed, but that's the shot I would choose. Edit: I found a small image of the shot I'm talking about. It's cropped, but you get the idea. http://www.livejournal.com/userpic/28154633/3336375 -JP |

I have to post this, see the sig: rotfl http://i24.photobucket.com/albums/c3...houdinihal.jpg |
I love the scene where Rose gets out of the car and looks up at the ship, this is as close to that scene as I can get:

It is free and a simple "Snapshot" command sends a web-ready picture to your My Pictures folder. |

I love these threads where "Favorite Single" (a phrase that twice implies singularity) turns into "here's my 300 favorite single" shots. Hell, even the OP violated his own rules.
It'd be fun to see what everyone would choose as their single favorite shot (because 1) the thread would be far more manageable, and 2) the shot would be far more meaningful). It's not nearly as fun to see a huge list of shots by each poster. Rant over. Proceed. |
I <3 you , Numanoid.

Can someone post Luke Skywalker looking at the binary sunset in the original Star Wars, nothing beats that image. Thanks.

One of my favs. Where is everyone getting the screen grabs? |

Around 3-4 is more realistic, but it at least allows some variety for the individual poster. |
