I love Threadless T-Shirts [=
My little sister and I have tonnes that have pointless humour and designs scribbled all over their comfy little bellies.

Another 5 that get to me – again, off the top of my head.

1. This scene in Gladiator: “My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.”

2. The Orphanage – What I think should have been the very last scene (SPOILERS ->) when the protagonist is dead, and is finally able to be with her son again. An ending that was creepy, crushingly sad and exultantly happy all at once.

3. Another Orphanage moment – there is a scene where the protagonist plays a game of “What’s the Time, Mr Wolf” with the spirits of children. Exquisitely drawn out and terrifying. I don’t think I’ll ever be able to play that game again.

4. Saw – The movie itself is fairly meh (but far superior to the sequels), but the one redeeming moment is the end of the film, when he stands up, and closes the door behind the two victims. Spine-tingling.

5. As Tom mentioned, Terminator 3 is, in my opinion, the best of them all for that one scene. At the end of the film, we realise that Skynet is not what it appeared to be, and we also see how Connor became the leader of mankind. Brilliant scene. Too bad about the rest of the film.

So there’s another five, again off the top of my head. As Tom said, sometimes you watch a movie just to watch one moment. That moment can turn a dull movie into a great one.

Human beings have a very short concentration span……..winter 3-4 months long is certainly lond enough for people to pine for warmer weather and getting out of those grotty trackies….
