—rwy
"Such an underrated movie. Sure, it's totally cheese-filled, but some days that's just what you need. Turn off the rest of the world and just be silly."

Buena Vista Pictures Distribution 18. Kill Bill Vol. 1
—trevorjdawson

"All the Black Pearl 's crew looks toward the staircase as they hear the thud of heavy boots while the music swells. The mysterious 'captain who knows those waters' comes into view. It's the magnificent Geoffrey Rush's Barbossa. 'So tell me, what's become of my ship?' *Yaaaarrghing and general swashbuckling intensifies🤩🤩*"

Buena Vista Pictures 26. The Italian Job
27. The Crow
28. Avengers: Infinity War
"'Oh god.' Steve Rogers in Infinity War. I got chills in theaters the first time I saw the ending. The gravity of what happened seemed to hit Captain America in that moment. It was perfect."
—bcg94
Marvel 29. The Hunt for Red October
30. Before Sunset
"The two characters spend the whole movie talking about how they can't spend too long hanging out because Jesse has a plane to catch. Then, in the last scene...
"Celine: 'Honey, you are gonna miss that plane.'
"Jesse: 'I know.'"

Warner Independent Pictures 31. Gone With the Wind
"Though Rhett says arguably the most famous line in film history ('Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn'), Scarlett gives us one of the finest closers (and mantra to millions for generations)."
—Mr. Spanky
Loew's Inc. 32. The Apartment
33. Army of Darkness
34. Pirates of the Caribbean
Buena Vista Pictures Distribution 35. Secret Window
"I know it's not a super-popular movie, but I love it. The last scene of Secret Window , with Mort (Johnny Depp) quoting the line from his original story ... as the camera pans outside to a bunch of cornstalks, then down through the ground, basically confirming that's where the dead bodies were. Such a great movie; definitely worth watching."
—Michael David
Sony Pictures Releasing 36. Fallen
"This is kind of controversial because I know not a lot of people like this movie, but I loved it."
—littleredshoes
Warner Bros. 37. And Finally, The Prestige
"A little longer than a last line, but I LOVE the last portion of The Prestige ."
—myrandaw
"Goddammit, I love this movie! The way he says 'fooled' at the very end...amazing."
