Apparently I'm only one of eight people in America who actually really liked "Star Trek: Nemesis," but towards the end when **SPOILER!**
Data sacrificed himself, I was really moved by the fact that this android, this machine who could not know true love or anger or sadness, and wanted more than anything to be human, committed the ultimate humanitarian act to save his friends and crew.
Makes me misty-eyed just thinking about it.
"Mwah ha ha ha...mine is an evil laugh. Now die."

Quote:No exclamation point. That's what sold it; he wasn't posturing or threatening. He was just completely calm, controlled, and sincere.

That's what made it so terrifying.

And the deleted scenes are cool too.

I'd include myself, but I'm not actually in America.

It was very ruthlessly received. It's way better than Generations, IMO.
And light-years better'n 5 Chrisisall

BSG "Crossroads part 2" enough said. So many great revelations here. From a courtroom speech, to strange meetings, to weird bogeys on DRADIUS. And the music, oh man, such class. It also ended with a promise. I love that episode.
I have to totally agree with you, Kenobius, on this one. For me it was the soundtrack that made it. I actually got goosebumps just reading your post & remembering that song playing along during the episode. I think I was actually yelling "NO WAY" at the TV by the end of the show. Good call!
I'd rather be a smartass than a dumbass...

Several episodes of The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (one of the greatest TV series of all time, second to Firefly) have brought tears to my eyes and sent chills down my spine. These include "Perils of Cupid", "Trenches of Hell", and "Oganga, the Giver and Taker of Life".

Most powerful moment.....
Most powerful moment.....
Hmm, I need to think about this one.
Got it!
One of them was in The Matrix: Revolutions, when the Sentries breached through the ceiling in Zion, and all the Walkers were firing their chainguns into the gap, and all the sentries that had been destroyed falling.
Another scene for me was in The Princess Bride.
Inigo Montoya: Where is the Man in Black?
[the Albino doesn't answer]
Inigo Montoya: Fezzik, jog his memory.
Fezzik: [Fezzik strikes the Albino so hard it knocks him out] Sorry, Inigo. I didn't mean to jog him so hard.
The battle of wits from princess bride as well....
Great scene.
And finally, to wrap things up, I really liked the scene in Star Wars Ep. II: Attack of the Clones, where Obi-Wan is fighting Gen. Grievous, and Grievous pulls out the 4 lightsabers.
oh, and before I forget.
"Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die. "
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!
