every moment in the movie Troy that Brad Pitt is in
ok fine. if i had to choose just one, it would be when the Greeks are sailing towards Troy, Achilles and his men have reached the shore and he says, "Do you know what's there, waiting, beyong that beach? IMMORTALITY! TAKE IT! IT'S YOURS!"
orrrr in the beginning, when that little kid is sent to fetch Achilles and join the army against Thessaly.
boy: the Thessalonian you're fighting... he's the biggest man i've ever seen. i wouldn't want to fight him
Achilles: that's why no one will remember your name

Default Re: Movie moments that make you giddy

Fateh:
- The scene when Hassan Batu Olu runs up the tower and waves the flag from the top of the tower and the Byzantine arrows just start pouring into him.

LOTR:
- When Eomer and the Rohirrim appear at the top of the mountain pass at sunrise to come to the aid of Helms Deep.
- When Theoden leads his vastly outnumbered horsemen against Sauron's army at Minas Tirith.

Gladiator:
- Maximus order of "Stay with me!!!" at the beginning of the movie.
- When Maximus comes home to find his wife and son already murdered, and buries them.
- When Maximus tells Commodus that he will have his victory, no matter what.
- When they come for Proximo.

Chronicles of Riddick:

- When Riddick tells Toombs about his mistakes: " You made three mistakes. First, you took the job. Second, you came light - four man crew for me? F**king insulting. But the worst mistake you made ... empty gun rack."
- Riddick, upon entering Crematoria prison:
......... The Guv: There are inmates and there are convicts. A convict has a certain code. And he knows to show a certain respect. An inmate, on the other hand, pulls the pin on his fellow man. Does the guards' work for them... brings shame... to the game. So, which are you gonna be?
......... Riddick: Me? I'm just passin' through.

- Riddick: [in cryosleep] Mercenaries. Elementals. Necromongers. sh*t, I've never been so popular. I should probaly slip these chains and open up a few arteries. But why drive when you can get driven? Free ticket to Crematoria. Thanks Toombs. Got me some business there, named Jack. And once we settle up, I walk away forever. So I'll just wait... all back-of-the-bus for now.

Michael Clayton:

- Ending scene, when Michael Clayton screws over Tilda Swinton, right before the cops arrive.

Iron Man:
- When Tony Stark takes his suit on the first real test run, flying through the air.

Matrix Trilogy:
- When Morpheus is standing on the ramp, and the twins try to run him over with their Escalade but in one fluid motion he side-steps, slices the tires as the Caddy rolls past, twirls around on his heel and pumps lead into the gas tank, blowing it up. Flawless, absolutely flawless.
- Dining scene with Le Merovingian: "Yes, of course. Who has time? Who has time? But then if we never *take* time, how can we have time?"
- Architect, when talking to Neo: "Hope, it is the quintessential human delusion, simultaneously the source of your greatest strength, and your greatest weakness."

Pirates of The Caribbean:
- The scene between Liz and Jack, as is in my signature below.
- Final scene in the third movie when Cutler Beckett realizes his gross miscalculation as his ship is ripped to shreds from both sides. CLASSIC.
- Cutler Beckett: "Our ships are in pursuit, and justice will be dispensed by cannonade and cutlass, and all manner of remorseless pieces of metal."
- Cutler Beckett: "So you see Mercer, every man has a price he will willingly accept, even for that which he hopes never to sell."

Thank You For Smoking:
- When Nick burns the Senator:

Senator Ortolan Finistirre: That is ridiculous. The death toll from airline and automobile accidents doesn't even skim the surface cigarettes. They don't even compare.
Nick Naylor: Oh, this from a Senator who calls Vermont home.
Senator Ortolan Finistirre: I don't follow you, Mr. Naylor.
Nick Naylor: Well, the real demonstrated #1 killer in America is cholesterol. And here comes Senator Finistirre whose fine state is, I regret to say, clogging the nation's arteries with Vermont Cheddar Cheese. If we want to talk numbers, how about the millions of people dying of heart attacks? Perhaps Vermont Cheddar should come with a skull and crossbones.
Senator Ortolan Finistirre: That is lu --. The great state of Vermont will not apologize for its cheese!

Kingdom of Heaven:
- When Sir Balian of Ibelin recites his oath to the young page and then slaps him.

- Balian and the Hospitaller dialogue scene:
Hospitaller: The heart will mend. Your duty is to the people of the city. I go to pray.
Balian of Ibelin: For what?
Hospitaller: For the strength to endure what is to come.
Balian of Ibelin: And what is to come?
Hospitaller: The reckoning is to come for what was done one hundred years before. The Muslims will never forget. Nor should they

- King Saladin to King Lusignian after the Battle of Hattin: "A king does not kill a king. Were you not close enough to a great king to learn by his example?"

itz: You liked that scene? I think I cried/vomited.

I was hysterical and Wallahi I still have nightmares over it.

One of the most moving movie moments ever for me:

YouTube - Crash Movie clip, girl gets in way of gun

FightClub:
Richard Chesler: [Reading a piece of paper] The first rule of Fight Club is you don't talk about Fight Club?
Narrator: [Voice-over] I'm half asleep again; I must've left the original in the copy machine.
Richard Chesler: The second rule of Fight Club - is this yours?
Narrator: Huh?
Richard Chesler: Pretend you're me, make a managerial decision: you find this, what would you do?
Narrator: [pauses] Well, I gotta tell you: I'd be very, very careful who you talk to about that, because the person who wrote that... is dangerous.
[Gets up from the chair]
Narrator: [Talking slowly] And this button-down, Oxford-cloth psycho might just snap, and then stalk from office to office with an Armalite AR-10 carbine gas-powered semi-automatic weapon, pumping round after round into colleagues and co-workers. This might be someone you've known for years. Someone very, very close to you.
Narrator: [Voice-over] Tyler's words coming out of my mouth.
[Snatches the piece of paper from boss' hands]
Narrator: [Voice-over] And I used to be such a nice guy.
Narrator: Or maybe you shouldn't bring me every little piece of trash you happen to pick up.
[Phone rings]

Well technically, dictionary.com defines giddy as "Having a reeling, lightheaded sensation; dizzy." So yeah, if you want to go that route, the scene made you giddy.

I more interpreted the word to just scenes that made me go "Wow." And thus, my list.
