I'll come back for the rest when I figure it out but one of the answers was clear to me - 

6. The Bullitt car chase. 

 

[supermike80]

1. Favorite scene in a best picture oscar winning film.

2. Favorite scene in a popcorn flick.

3. Favorite scene in a movie you hate.

4. Favorite scene in a movie that isnt well known. 

5. Favorite scene in any movie with an actor/actress that was in a Bond movie. 

6. Favorite movie scene that involves a car chase.

1)  Lame and short but...American Beauty.  Wife comes home after Lester buys the Pontiac.  He almost runs her over with the remote controlled car.  She stands in the doorway, puts her hands up on the sides and clicks her nails three times.   LOVE that sound.   Maybe not a favorite, but love it.

2) When Bruce Willis drops the C4 down the elevator shaft and it blows up in Die Hard.  The visual of that is awesome.  Remember seeing it for the first time in a theatre and was blown away(Pun intended)

3) Wife LOVES never been kissed.  I hate it and I hate Drew Barrymore but when she's on the pitchers mound at the end, its OK.

4) When a very young James Spader breaks up the muggers on his bike at the beginning of Tuff Turf.

5) Remake of Thomas Crown Affair when Pierce Brosnan returns the painting with all the bowler hat guys while the song sinnerman is playing.

6) No question here.  Won't even say the movie. "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and were wearing sunglasses"

I'm going again...

1. THIS is my church speech from On the Waterfront.

2. It's not the years, it's the mileage. I still laugh when Marion flips the mirror.

3. I'll probably catch some flak for this, but I don't like Beetlejuice, yet I appreciate the Banana Boat Song scene.

4. If Better Off Dead qualifies as not well known, I offer up my favorite scene from Ed Wood.

5. Can't find the clip, but Robert Davi in Die Hard: (talking on the phone) This is Special Agent Johnson...no, the other one. 

6. Still somewhat enjoy Blake Edwards' take on car chases.

This scene still gets me.

Kind of partial to this one.

1. The Baptism of Fire - Godfather

2. Christopher Walken and crew confront Dennis Hopper - True Romance

3. Sandra Bullock confronted on a talk show where it is revealed her husband and her best friend are having an affair - Hope Floats (I had to rack my brain for a good scene from a bad movie)

4. The final scene in Gangster No. 1.  (Spoiler-free description here)

5. Bathroom scene -  Knock Knock

6. Perhaps a liberal definition of chase is needed, but my choice is the second-to-last race scene in Better Off Dead, complete with pseudo-Howard Cosell running commentary.

I thought of a much better scene from a movie I didn't like as a whole - the Superman vs Clark Kent scene from Superman III

 

[Dez89]

Already beat me to it, but came in to post:

1. The tree scene in Unforgiven

6. The Blues Brothers. I'm not sure there's another answer. 

 

[NorvilleBarnes]

4. Favorite scene in a movie that isnt well known. 

I don't know if The Hudsucker Proxy counts as not well known, but it's certainly not as well known as Big Lebowski, Fargo, or Raising Arizona.

LINK I love this film so much I took my user name from it. Tim Robbins, Jenifer Jason Leigh, and Paul Newman are at the top of their game. The film is set in the 50s and the style, direction, score, and even the acting are there as well.

5) Remake of Thomas Crown Affair when Pierce Brosnan returns the painting with all the bowler hat guys while the song sinnerman is playing.

5. I love when Pierce Brosnan rolls the three smoke bombs in the art exhibit room in thomas crown affair.

2. Christopher Walken and crew confront Dennis Hopper - True Romance

Pure fire and pure QT.  Love Gary Oldman’s “you think I’m pretty scene too”.

Pure fire and pure QT.  Love Gary Oldman’s “you think I’m pretty scene too”.  

Everyone always references the Dennis Hopper Chritopher Walken scene and yeah it's awesome.   But that scene with Oldman and the scene where James Gandolfini beats up Rosanne Arquette are awesome too.   When he tells her "OK, no more mister nice guy" and she goes  "Oh God."  Man that's a scene.

By the way..talk about a misnamed movie title.  If you hadn't seen it or heard about it you would be sure it's a chick flick.  And it so is NOT

It would be more famous except it's, you know, for kids.

When I started dating my wife, that was the first movie we saw together. She liked it. I knew she was a keeper after that.
