23. Hey, it looks like everyone is on this one. First thing that popped
into my mind. But the war room scene with Dr. Strangelove trying to keep his arm down was good too.

15. "Why don't you park over there?"
"It's too tight."

"Too tight? You could land a jumbo fucking jet over there."

:rofl:

Funniest movie of the decade. I've already watched it about 25 times. :)

22. now get this, Forkboy
I send care packages to troops in Afghanistan, and a couple of months ago I sent a used Snatch DVD - told them it was an old favorite of mine and was hoping someone there had not yet seen it - can you believe NONE of them had seen it? THEY LOVED IT. Favorite character: Bullet-tooth "you can call me Susan if it makes you happy" Tony :D

12. What's Eating Gilbert Grape ((((SPOILER ALERT))))
After Momma dies.

NO ONE is immune from tears, even though there is some happy right after at the end.

Lots of other tear jerkers in that movie as well.

14. Tough to pick, but the one that instantly came to mind....
...was the sequence in Reservoir Dogs where Tim Roth is learning the "Commode Story".

18. The Secret of Roan Inish
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VHp6QIW--ek&feature=related

This scene contains the story of the selkie woman. (The first little bit of it is kind of gross because the story teller is cleaning fish.)

I love the entire movie, so it's hard for me to say if this is my favorite part. To me, all the parts are wonderful.

21. "Do you remember how she always had 12 golden jinglebells sewn on her petticoat
when you and I were only allowed three a piece? Tell me, why, WHY?"

"Well, I don't know. Maybe she didn't jingle them as much."

25. I like where Elvis and Ann Margaret sign and dance on "Viva Las Vegas"
the title song in the film.
Not my favorite, but one of my top 1000 all time favorites.
