Wait. . . Charlotte dies?

Sheesh, way to spoil it, darn it!


There was a funny TV show a few years ago ("Ed") where an adult woman loves the book Charlotte's Web, but is shocked to learn Charlotte dies at the end.

It turns out that her mother had died while she was young, and her father was a printer. So, her father didn't want her to lose "Charlotte" as well, so he reprinted the last few pages to change the story, and re-bound the book :lol:

Best Scene in a Star Wars Movie

My brain cannot comprehend that this scene is in the same film series as Episodes I-III. I've had my complaints about Mark Hamill's acting, but next to Hayden Christensen, he's frickin' Laurence Olivier.

Cider House Rules has a pretty awesome score.It's very simple but beautiful.
As far as movie scenes go there is one in Titanic that made me cry. It's the one when the guy hits the propeller!

There's a commercial on AM radio that constantly plays the Cider House Rules score. Great score, but I can't remember what the commercial is for.

Personage, I love the Cider House Rules score. :smile:
I used the theme song to help meditate and relax me during the labor of my first child. It's also a good song for slideshows.

Another similar score I like is from the movie"How to Make an American Quilt."

Seven, thank you for turning me on to that. I had not heard it before. My wife and I own a business in which soothing music like that is always nice to have on hand. I will definitely pick that up.

oops, I posted the wrong link on The Kid. Lets try this again..

One of my favorite movie scenes acted by a child is from a very funny Disney movie called "The Kid." Bruce Willis was great too.
0-1:55, 3:50, 5:46 and 8:00 are hilarious

Based on your avatar, I figured your favorite movie scene would be the ending of Se7en. You know, the part that the Lemonheads sing about in their song 6ix: "Here comes Gwyneth's head in a box."

Ah, "The Best Bruce Willis Scene Ever" is in "The Kid"....

The scene starts at 4:24, the line is at 8:10

Major spoiler alert but to explain the scene: Bruce Willis is a high-powered, unmarried, selfish PR rep who gets visited by his 8-year-old self. Over the course of the movie, we learn that he always wanted to be a pilot with a dog named "Chester". Here, at the end of the movie, his 8-year-old self and he get to see what the future Bruce Willis's life will be like.

The trailer gives a good overview.

The DVD for "The Kid" has one of the worst commentaries ever, where the Director is talking with "The Kid" (Spencer Breslin) for the whole movie, but Spencer starts eating stuff, and won't let the director actually talk about the movie. It's awful.
