Alright the rules are you conform to the title or else.

I am making this thread mainly because I watch Chronicles of Riddick back to back with spider-man 3 and I definitely don't like either film.

However the finale of Riddick surprised me when I first saw it. And I am not usually surprised. The fact that he lost the girl but gained all the power was an interesting dark turn the story took and so i love the last scene of him mourning her on the throne.

Spider-man 3 is another terrible flick made by a capable director. The action is still worth the squeeze in this one. The first scene of Harry v. Peter was awesome and so was the fight between the back suit spiderman and sandman.

I would also put the danger room scene in from X3.

Again try to keep the thread somewhat positive.
 
Well...obviously the forest battle in Transofmrers 2. Hated the movie, but that scene is a lot of fun.

Tropic Thunder...hated the movie, but I laughed pretty hard at the beginning where RDJ is pretending to die.
 
I too didn't like Tropic Thunder. But any scene with Les Grossman and/or Peck i loved.
 
-Spider-Man 3: The dinner scene in Bruce Campbell as the waiter; the beginning with Peter and Harry
-X-Men 3: All the scenes with Beast and Angel; the Danger Room opening
-300: If you showed me a few minutes of any of the battle scenes, I'd enjoy it, but they got old for a whole movie
-Troy: Same case as 300
-The Love Guru: Justin Timberlake dancing
-The Goods: Will Ferrell's cameo; Jeremy Piven's speeches (because he basically reprised his role from Entourage)

I guess I didn't really hate any of those movies, but I disliked them.

The opening scene of Elektra was great. Too bad the rest of the movie sucked.
 
The "Duel of the Fates" in Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace. Darth Maul was awesome.
 
Batman Returns - The first ten-twenty minutes of Penguin footage. It got so irritating after a while that I blame this film for singlehandedly ruining the character of The Penguin for me. Way to go Burton. :down
Star Wars - Episode I: The Phantom Menace - Final Duel
Spider-Man - Any of the scenes with Norman Osborn
Star Wars - Episode II: Attack of the Clones - Yoda's fight. Amazing!
X-Men: The Last Stand - Xavier's Death (minus the inter-cut action scene)
Spider-Man 3 - Sandman's birth
300 - The first thirty to forty five minutes. **** got boring after that.
Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull - The first half hour to forty five minutes. After they get to the campsite, **** hits the fan.
Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen - Forrest Battle
 
Supergirl - When she's trapped in the Phantom Zone and her powers are gone. EEK
 
I used to really like Guy Ritchie's Revolver. On a recent rewatch I must conclude it is a pretentious piece of **** that isn't about anything but Ritchie's own ego. Frankly, it's people talking ******** for 100 minutes with some nice performances scattered throughout (most notably Mark Strong's fantastic, unrecognizable turn as a hitman with a conscience) and a couple of scenes I still adore. A shootout that looks like panels of a comicbook, a shootout in a restaurant accompanied by Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata and a robbery sequence with some animation thrown in and great music.
 
Bruce and dying Alfred's scene in Batman & Robin. "I love you old man" got to me. But the movie's terrible.


Spiderman rescuing Gwen Stacy. Of course the movie sucked and the "jokes" between Eddie Brock and Capt. Stacy ruined everything.
 
I too didn't like Tropic Thunder. But any scene with Les Grossman and/or Peck i loved.

Yeah, I liked Tropic Thunder at first, but the overuse of swearing and f-bombs got to me after a few viewings. However, I still enjoy watching the parts with RDJ and the king of pwnage himself, Less Grossman (i'm glad to see him get his OWN movie finally, btw) ^-^
 
The only bits in Ghost rider i genuinely enjoyed....when he is in his apartment listening to the Carpenters, eating jelly beans and then watching videos featuring chimps...and the jail cell scene.

Batman and Robin...the only part I 100% enjoy is the argument between B&R as they chase the Freeze gang culminating in Batman switching Robin's bike off.

LOXG....when MrHyde and Nemo team up against the uber Hyde monster.
 
That is a tough one, because it seems like for me movies either suck or they don't.
 
Hmmm..tough..

I really don't hate any movie. :(

I wish I was like you. :( I like alot of stuff....especially stuff people don't usually like, but there is some stuff I loathe entirely(like Avatar, the movie, not the amazing cartoon that I love). So in my jealously of you I shall thrown you into the garbage! Muhahahahaha!
 
There are some good ones in here,

Troy has that awesome fight between Achellies and Hector. I like but I never rent the movie I just watch that one scene on youtube the whole time.

Batman Forever is a trashy movie that has a place in my heart because I love it as a kid.

The scene from that though that still gets me is the part where Dick steals the batmobile, because who on this board wouldn't do the same.
 
The only bits in Ghost rider i genuinely enjoyed....when he is in his apartment listening to the Carpenters, eating jelly beans and then watching videos featuring chimps...

Dude....what the ****? You're talking about the Cage movie? That does sound like some good old crazy Cage ****!

While we're on the subject of movies about Ghosts who Ride or Write, I detested the overrated shambles Polanski made with McGregor and Brosnan but there was one fun moment in there: Eli Wallach's cameo!

Wallach! Hurray!

This ridiculous crap
 
The opening car chase in Quantum of Solace.
Rorchach vs the cops in Watchmen
Peter vs Harry fight 1 and 2 in Spider-Man 3
The Chateau fight in The Matrix Reloaded.
The Egg Lunch scene in Napoleon Dynamite
The warehouse scene at the beginning of Indiana Jones 4
The death of Xavier/fight at Jeans house scene in X-Men 3.
 
"Hi Freeze. I'm Batman."

WHAM!

It's so bad it's good. I mean that quote is like, "No ****." But that's what makes it funny. The rest? ****. Although the Bruce/Alfred scenes were good. It looked to be the only thing Clooney found good in the script and actually tried.

Megan Fox's introduction on the motorcycle in TF2.

Bruce Willis trying yet looking pissed in Armegeddon.

Kate Beckinsale's unmatched beauty in Pearl Harbor.

KOTCS: besides the nuke scene, after Indy and Mutt get on the plane its like they literally have gone on a trip to become the Raiders of the Lost Luster

Spider-Man 3: Harry and Pete fighting Sandman and Venom as a team, I wish that had been what the whole film was about.
 
I really didn't like the end battle in Attack of the Clones but the Obi Wan and Jango fight was fantastic
 
Pirates of the Carribean: At Worlds End, the final fight with Jack Sparrow and Davy Jones

The Kraken in Dead Man's Chest
