How do?

Found this whilst idly browsing YouTube. Figured it was an interesting thread topic.

Basically, show us good scenes from otherwise pretty awful movies. And for loading times, please spoiler tag vids

My offering? Quicksilver saving the students from X-Men Arseprolapse..

It's obvious but, the "Garbage Day" line from "Silent Night, Deadly Night 2"

Doom (Johnson/Urban)

First person shooter sequence was epic. The rest... not so much.

No matter how bad the Police Academy movies get, they are automatically redeemed with a certain salad bar scene.

It's cliché at this point, but how about the "Get the Missouri Ready" ACDC montage from Battleship.

The Lucifer scene from the fup awful Constantine movie, back before he got all pretty and cool

Yakuza vs Predator, from Predators.

Not the worst in the franchise, but still largely rubbish.

But this one scene harks back to Billy’s unseen sacrifice in the first, whilst also better leaning into the Predator mythos. It’s also quite nicely choreographed.

I really enjoy the premise of that scene but I think that is the worst Predator actor we have seen. The predators have a very distinct way of moving. Almost flowing exaggerated movements one moment and quick predator sharp actions the next. That Falconer Pred however just stomps around stiffly like a man packed into too much rubber. Which to be fair, he probably is. But he is the only Pred on film that fails to follow Kevin Peter Halls examples from the first couple movies. KPH was an actor known for being in big suits (he also played Harry of Harry and the Hendersons) and in interviews talked about how playing essentially mute characters he worked with movement to give each one a distinct personality and character. This one Pred fails to do that.
