Making a list for my Netflix list as I haven't seen all mentioned or want to see them again. <br /><br />I also thought of Ripley vs. The Queen Alien and the Lara Croft movies. <br /><br />LOL, Maureen, that was a unique scene in Bourne Supremacy. <br /><br />It's funny, Elise, when I think of John Wayne, I automatically remember The Quiet Man, but The Shootist...wonderful gunfight.<br /><br />And oh yeah, Adrienne, the Lethal Weapons movies.

Having just watched Raiders (again) the plane-on-the-runway scene was still very fresh and you're right: when the evil Nazi-on-sterioids got his comeuppance, it was most satisfying.

It takes place in a grocery and the store signs are clues to what is going to take place in the movie. The opening of Silence of the Lambs does that also.
