Films!
Over the last few days, a few of us in our office have been talking about our favourite things in films, be it the "Does he look like a bitch?" speech from Pulp Fiction, or the bit at the end of Sixth Sense (she doesn't get out much).

I couldn't reduce them down to just one though, as I've got so many. So then, what are your favourite scenes/quotes/narratives/etc from films, as many as you like?

One of mine is the bit at the end of The Green Mile, when Michael Clarke Duncan stops Tom Hanks from putting the hood over, saying "I's afraid of the dark". Fucking gutting.

Alt Q: What is your opinion on Watership Down?

That's got one of my favourite bits too "All the world will be your enemy, Prince of a Thousand enemies. And when they catch you, they will kill you. But first they must catch you; digger, listener, runner, Prince with the swift warning. Be cunning, and full of tricks, and your people will never be destroyed." - That with the theme tune played over it, superb.

the best scene in any film ever
is from Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight

Billy Zane is a demon, encouraging someone to wipe away a seal made of Christ's blood. The guy agrees, Billy Zane opens his mouth, a sponge unrolls from his mouth and he waggles his eyebrows.

Fucking genius.

I love Tales from the Crypt
My favourite episode is when Ewan McGregor is a zombie and his girlfriend sleeps with that black guy from James Bond, so he shoots him and says "the living can't be trusted". Then the black guy leaps up as a vampire and goes "neither can the dead!" and kicks the shit out of him.
