Roy Batty -
I've seen things you humans wouldn't believe.
Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion.
I watched C-Beams glitter in the darkness at Tannhauser Gate.
All these moments will be lost, in time.

You guys take the cake! I am not telling what my favorite movie scene is but you can be damn sure that it had a naked woman in it........[;)]

Ok, here is my favorite that does not involve a naked woman.
The shootout scene that opens "Once Upon a Time in the West. Jack Elam, Woody Strobe and Al Mulock face off against Charles Bronson in a gunfight on a beat up train platform. Takes fifteen minutes to build up to and is all over in half a second. Just brilliant.
Of course the closing shootout between Bronson and Henry Fonda (as evil a bad man as you will ever see) is no slouch either.

Here I stand, the goddess of desire
Set men on fire;
I have this power.
Morning, noon, and night, it's dwink and dancing;
Some qvick womancing;
And then a shower.
Stage door Johnnies constantly suwwound me;
They always hound me;
With one wequest;
Who can satisfy their lustful habits?
I'm not a wabbit;
I need some weee... (breath) ... eeest.

One more from Sand Pebbles:
Capt threatens to shoot Holman if he doesn't shut up. Holman replies "Well shoot somethin" Then take the rifle and shoots Po Han. I was always a Steve McQeen fan, but became a Mako fan after that movie.

the opening scene to the original Cannonball Run when Dom Delouise first turns into Capt Chaos - 'I.... I am Capt Chaos and this is my faithful companion JJ..... say hello JJ....... been a cop long??' it was the film to watch and quote when i was in the sixth year at school - havent seen it since, its probably rubbish now!!!
the opening sequence of Star Wars, when the destroyer goes over the screen firing at Leia's transport ship, i was 8 watching it in the cinema with my dad and i still remember the reverb on the screen and my seat vibrating - i loved it
Its a bit cheesy but the scene in independence day when the first 'disc' appears over new york and its simply massive, the way the actual 'reveal' is held and held and held with everyone looking up and then the clouds part - i thought this was great in the trailer
Band of Brothers - the brecourt guns mission with Lt Winters and his small squad, and the scene with Capt (forgotten his name) running through Foy(?) to recon the troops and then running back to tell everyone

I'm always fond of the scene in a Bridge too Far just after the Waal river assault and the tanks are pouring over the Nimijgen (sp) road bridge, the German SS officer orders the bridge blown and it doesn't work - he says something like "My god there only xx kilometres from Arnhem! Who can stop them now?" and then the "allied theme music" starts playing. I always hope that maybe, just maybe, this time they might make it - but they never do.
I think this links back into my being 12 when I first saw this movie and (knowing nothing of the history) being utterly gobsmacked that the allies didn't win the movie. It's still hard to comprehend over a decade later.

For those of us who are middle-aged:
Kirk: "Computer--Destruct sequence 1 Code 1 1 A"
How many of us were sitting in the Theatre THINKING that there was no way the Enterprise ("No bloody A--B--C--or D") could actually blow up??!! I was practically in tears as the saucer blew up and ship plunged down to Genesis...

Ah man, Enterprise was a fine ship I only hope first ship we got in outer space gets named Enterprise (speaking of space vessel not space shuttle) [:D]
One scene I really hated and glad it wasn't in the movie Midway, the death of the Yorktown. I read the book Rendezevous at Midway, based on the U.S.S Yorktown and really hated hearing her survive the 2nd attack only to get sunk by a japanese sub. After 3 engagements that would of sent any other ship to the bottom, she held on firm.
Either that or going through the death of manfred von richthofen, one of the greatest pilots ever to fly. 80 men tried, 80 men died. How many you seasoned gents remember this? Royal Guardians ring a bell? [&o]

I didn't know there were actually 3 or 4 songs.
There's the original that we're talking about. But there's a return of the Red Baron. Aother "behind the lines", and "Sopwith Camel Time" (haven't seen that one yet.

From "The Battle of Britain"
Air Minister: ...Dowding? I say Dowding, can you verify the figures?
Air Marshall Dowding: I hear you minister. I'm not much for propaganda. If we're right...they'll give up. If they're right, they'll be in London in a week.
