Almost every bit of Day After Tomorrow, particularly the bit about the supercells creating temperatures of absolute zero. It's like nails on a chalkboard....
The movie was worth it for the sign hitting the TV reporter though.
Another stupid point, why are they running away from the cold WHICH IS SOMEHOW CATCHING UP TO THEM!?!?!
Haven't watched it more than once, and I saw it a long while ago, can't remember much else.
One of me favorites begins with this wonderful (paraphrased by me) quote, "Doom, what happens when you rapidly cool hot metal?"
Now Reed was right in theory, when Doom's metallic form was heated and cooled it would have formed a metallic glass that was much harder this his original body thus making it impossible to move.
Of course he would have been radiating enough heat to kill every living thing for miles and that little hydrant could never have provided enough water to cool the good Doctor off. Dropping him in to the ocean would have created a wall of heat causing all water that came near him to spontaneously evaporate for like hours.
When I saw that scene I was laughing sooo for years, and how though it would work in theory, it woulda been impossible to do as Reed instructed with a just a forcefield and a fire hydrant.
K-PAX, the movie opens on a guy bumping into someone and talking a bit of nonsense, for which the cops send him to a psychiatric facility, where he's held against his will.
Sorry, but that's really not how it works - you're sent to those places for being a danger to yourself or others, not for wandering around in a harmless delusion.

My anecdotal evidence disagrees with yours! EXPLAIN THAT!

The Invisible Woman is concidered to be one of the most powerful humanas in the Marvel Universe. Her Forcefields are alot stronger than you give credit for.
Upon developing her power to project highly durable fields of energy, Sue Storm became the Fantastic Four's most powerful member, which only helped to increase her assertiveness, assuming the team's second-in-command.
Sue can also mentally generate a psionic field of invisible force apparently drawn from hyperspace, which she manipulates for a variety of effects. Most commonly, Sue generates near-indestructible invisible force fields around herself or other targets. These fields can withstand impacts of Class 100 strength, a literally astronomical level. She can vary the texture and tensile strength of her field to some extent, rendering it highly rigid or as soft and yielding as foam; softer variations on the field enable her to cushion impacts more gently, and are less likely to result in a psionic backlash against Sue herself (in rare cases, sufficiently powerful attacks on her psionic fields can cause her mental or physical pain).
She can generate solid force constructs as small as a marble or as large as 100 feet in diameter, and her hollow projections such as domes can extend up to several miles in area.
...and is now recognized as one of the most powerful characters in the Marvel Universe
From her wikipedia entry. She can shield from large amounts of energy very easily. i would find you some info from Marvels website, but I cannot seem to connect to it right now.
I agree mostly on the fire hydrant though, though under my above argument her forcefield could easily absorb the heat. It has done so in comics before.
Doom definately would have turned into a glass like substance, and likely did. He would have been immensilly heavy, Thing can lift around 75 tonnes. While not stated, Doom likely has regenerative abilities like he does in the Ultimate Universe, so him returning in the sequel after two years is definately possible.
Most of you issues with this scene are negated by the suspension of disbelief concerning already existing levels of super ability. It would have been too complicated in dialogue to explain more than they did, but anyone who knows the FF would understand, and most who didn't would have just thought it looked cool.
Jason X:
The female robot beats up Jason X, accidentaly delivering the knockout punch so that Jason X lands onto a regenerative table set to robot chimpanzee! The half-robot-chimpanzee, half-Jason X then fights and defeats the robot, before the one black guy sacrifices himself to kill him.
Ah, I loved that movie.

my mouth is full of winsome lies -
and eyes are full of death besides
but luckily the soul is wise -
it sees beyond my blindness and
forced failure makes a better guise,
so as i come again alive,
it feels like life's a decent plan
In no particular order are my top 3:
*All of The Core. Just...all of it.
*True Lies. The scene where Jamie Lee Curtis accidentally drops an Uzi down some stairs and it guns down like 10 goons. I lol'd so hard.
*Independence Day. Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum h@x0r the computer system of the alien mothership using a standard Apple Mac laptop from 1995. I've heard that they're versatile, but that's pushing it.

- MaRo, October 8th, 2007 IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAND!!!!!
most absurd movie concept - girl next door. don't get me wrong I like the eye candyand all but a pornstar moves nexts door. only in dreams and southern california.
My one biggest hate on for a scene is in superman 3 though. Again, superheroics. But some things can be allowed for super powers and others are just stupid. Superman freezes the surface of a lake with his breath. I can buy that one. He picks up the entire lake surface by the edge. While I am fine with him having the strength to do that, there is no way he could do this without the ice breaking. Then to top it off, he drops the frozen lake onto a burning factory and 100's of workers and firemen. ???what??? There is no way that ice would not crush everyone. We do not see him firing heat vision at it, and even if it somehow could evaporate as fast as the cameras showed us...it would still cause some serious damage.
Three was a pretty fun movie, but that scene completely irks me more than any movie scene ever. There is no wonder they removed it from the movie continuity altogether.
There also is alot of inconsistancy with Supes power-level through the movie as well throughout the movie. He goes from powerful enough to freeze and lift a lake, to being unable to fight an overzealous computer.
Remember the part where Richard Pryor fell off a building on a pair of skis and dropped something like fifty stories, only to land on a slightly angled glass roof, from which he slid down to street level with narry a scratch.
I realize the movie was supposed to be a comedy, but that was soooo incredibly stupid. How do you even conceive a scene like that?

Ambush Krotiq makes me laugh so much. I keep rereading the card and it keeps not having Flash. In what sense is this an ambush again? I just have visions of this huge Krotiq poorly concealed in some bushes, feeling slightly sad that his carefully planned ambushes never seem to work.
Lots of good scenes in this thread already, but this is just brilliant. (Sorry, you need to log in.)
That was funny as heck. the girl in this actually made a few movies and was modertely popular at the time. She is now normally so bad. This was like watching a video game.

Alot more possible than you think. Especially in todays day and age of internet porn and cam girls. I have met quite a few porn performers and have had some live rather close to me.

That scene is an awesome example. However it is also one of the funnest scenes in a movie ever, it just has no place in a Superman movie.
Again, Van Helsing. If Dracula is trying to bring his children to life, where the hell did the ballroom of vampires and his harem come from if he hasn't succeded in bringing the babies to life?
@Alacar:
Vader: "Where is Natalie Portman? I suddenly care about her again."
Palpatine: "Your overzealous acting killed her."
Vader: "You think that would make me realize the error of my ways and realize that the Jedi were right all along. Then you think I would kill you right now where you stand. Eh."
Palpatine: "So, now that the prequel trilogy is over, do you think it was worth making?"
Vader: "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!..."
Good stuff.

Do threads in this forum ever not get hijacked by the magical invisible hand of the market guys?
Im not sure if it was mentioned but in XXX with Vin Diesel, when hes running away and takes the metal garbage can top and grinds down the rail, that is like impossible but was pretty awesome
While the Core did have a ridiculous and implausible concept, I actually enjoyed the movie a lot, but oh well.
No one has mentioned it, but I think it is in Blues Brothers 2000 (though it might be the original, I'm not sure...) where they have that massive car pile up and no one stops, they just keep running in to it. O_o It was so ridiculous, but I laughed a lot.
And what about the bear fight scene in Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy?

Came the last night of sadness
And it was clear she couldn't go on
Then the door was open and the wind appeared
The candles blew then disappeared
The curtains flew then he appeared...saying don't be afraid
Come on baby...and she had no fear
And she ran to him...then they started to fly
They looked backward and said goodby...she had become like they are
She had taken his hand...she had become like they are
Come on baby...don't fear the reaper
Another stupid point, why are they running away from the cold WHICH IS SOMEHOW CATCHING UP TO THEM!?!?!

All marriage scenes ever - who says "I do", ever?
Bored? Watch this.

Control is the ultimate expression of power.
I liked his first two movies a lot. I felt Signs was a big letdown after a decent first half.

When baxter talks to the bear and calls him off? Thats arguably the most believable scene out of everything mentioned here.
