As an unsupervised Gen-X who enjoyed watching all manner of horror movies unbeknownst to my parents, this was the one scene that truly terrified me and the only one I remember.

You're from down South,
And when you open your mouth,
You always seem to put your foot there.

The only thing I remember about doc holiday is the girl walking out of the lake topless. Pretty sure that was the first pair of boobs I ever saw.

Yeah, this is the "which movies were bad but had nudity?" prompt.

While I liked the movie, the only thing I actually remembered about Swordfish was Halle Berry's boobs.

At then end when Bridget Fonda and Woody go to Hollywood to get him, Fonda says off-camera "Oh my god is that a star?" and Woody says," No, that's just Ted Danson."

The chestburster from Alien is another great choice.

Post checks out since it appears you didn't even remember the movie title: Doc Hollywood

Night of the Lepus

The electrified train track stands out most to me.

I don't think you understand the concept of the thread.

That must have been an autocorrect because I must have fat fingers a word and didn't notice it changed it. I definitely knew the name of the movie.

shootout in HEAT.

the rest of the movie is a bit dull and forgetable.

Evidently not.

Perhaps you can explain it to me?

What does God have to do with this?

Post a movie you remember from a single scene? Is there some hidden context privy to everyone else that went right over my head in your post topic?

I think the idea is that Raiders of the Lost Ark has about 115 minutes of cumulative content that could be reasonably considered "memorable". Do you literally not remember the other 114.5 minutes?

Think of it as most memorable scenes in otherwise forgettable movies.

I'm not sure if some of y'all are interpreting the op differently than intended, but I think it means is that all you remember from the movie is one scene. Movies like Empires Strikes Back and Jaws doesn't fit unless you just didn't like those movies.




In that case...

Literally the only thing I remember besides this was something to do with a plastic bag in a drive through?

Hmmm. The poster referencing Alien didn't get the intent either.

As for Raiders, I remember the entire movie. I interpreted the OP as most memorable scene in a movie.

That is true.

I think the smell test for me is if you were to say "Do you remember that scene in _____", but don't say what scene it is, you'd get the same answer from 95% of participants.

If you say Raiders or Alien, you'd get a million answers.

If you say Dr.Stranglelove, they'd respond "You mean the one with cowboy riding the nuclear bomb down to the earth?".

File this one under "memorable scene for all the wrong reasons" category.

Funny story about this one...
I was in high school when this came out. A friend of mine saw it and decided to pull a prank on me and my dad (who my buddy knew very well). He said it was an awesome who-done-it action movie and that my dad & I would both love and probably prefer to watch together.

MOST AWKWARD MOVIE-VIEWING EXPERIENCE EVER!!

But I have to tip my hat to my buddy for pulling off one hell of a prank that my dad & I still laugh about today.

Admittely my OP could've been more thorough, but I thought the title was pretty clear.

Movies that are forgettable except for one scene, or where a single scene is so much better than the rest of the movie that it outshines everything else in it.

Example - opening of Ghost Ship. Oft cited by horror fans as one of the best movie openings ever. Completely disregarded for the rest of its runtime.

First thing that came to mind, this movie and the scene from Black Swan.

I don't remember much from 1917 but that flare scene when it turned night and came out of the building was amazing in a theater.

When that scene was over in Wild Things, someone in the theater said loudly "Can we just watch that part over and over?"

The only scene I remember in this was when a spider crawled in John C Reillys mouth and then he vomited out a bunch of baby spiders later.
