Favorite Scene of All Time

[rodriguezisdead]

Oh my gosh I can't believe I had to create this thread and in the process be forced to mis-spell 'Favourite' !! :)In the related thread to this one (Favorite ep. of all time) shill had discussed a poll/thread for a favorite scene from MV - I think we all know how difficult this is going to be but the first stage is we need some suggestions from you the fans.Then timm can add a poll later on the same thread and we can vote.To make it easier for him can we try and stick to a format such as:Season Number (if you know it) - Episode Name - Episode Number (if you know it or this can be added later) - Brief Scene Title/Description (enough to clearly identify it in voters' minds)So for example you would have something like: Season 2 - Out Where the Buses Don't Run - Ep 025 - Final Dire Straits Sceneor: Season 1 - Milk Run - Ep 013 - Final Sonny in Tears ScenePlease also have a go at suggesting how many Scenes per fan the poll should be limited to... 1, 3, 5, 10 etc ?

[rodriguezisdead]

Here's 20 different Scenes to get us going...Season 1 - Brother's Keeper - Ep 001 - In The Air Tonight SceneSeason 1 - Milk Run - Ep 013 - Final Sonny in Tears SceneSeason 1 - Evan - Ep 021 - Evan Breakdown in Sonny's Arms SceneSeason 2 - Prodigal Son - Ep 023 - You Belong to the City SceneSeason 2 - Out Where the Buses Don't Run - Ep 025 - Final Dire Straits SceneSeason 2 - Definitely Miami - Ep 035 - Final Helicopter on Beach SceneSeason 2 - Payback - Ep 041 - Opening Sonny Visits Prison SceneSeason 3 - The Good Collar - Ep 050 - Final Ball thrown into trash can SceneSeason 3 - Shadow in the Dark - Ep 051 - Castillo & Crockett at Cafe SceneSeason 3 - Forgive Us Our Debts - Ep 055 - Final Hackman Laughs at Sonny Leaving Prison SceneSeason 3 - By Hooker By Crook - Ep 063 - Final Sonny on Boat under Clear Blue Sky SceneSeason 4 - Death and the Lady - Ep 069 - Final Sonny Slaps Porno Director SceneSeason 4 - Child's Play - Ep 073 - Castillo & Crockett Arguing SceneSeason 4 - Deliver Us From Evil - Ep 089 - Final Sonny Blasts Hackman Away SceneSeason 4 - Mirror Image - Ep 090 - The Dream Sequence SceneSeason 4 - Mirror Image - Ep 090 - Final Burnett Shoots Hagovic in Boat SceneSeason 5 - Redemption in Blood - Ep 092 - Sonny Returns to OCB and is Arrested SceneSeason 5 - The Lost Madonna - Ep 104 - Twist in my Sobriety Party SceneSeason 5 - Freefall - Ep 111 - Sonny & Rico Throw Down their Badges SceneSeason 5 - Freefall - Ep 111 - Sonny & Rico Shake Hands / 'Tell Me' montage Sceneby the way there's no reason why you couldn't have several scenes from one ep - many of the above eps for example have got more than one great scene - you just need to clearly identify it...

Favorite SceneJust wondering before I submit my favorites, are you counting Prodigal Son and Brother's Keeper as one episode or two?

[Shill]

I'd like to submit Season 5 - Redemption in Blood - Ep 092 - Sonny on the sofa drunk with CelesteSeason 5 - Ep 098 - Hard Knocks - Sonny and Stan talk at the end sceneSeason 1 - Ep 019 - Home Invaders - Girl in bikini on skates

[rodriguezisdead]

Just wondering before I submit my favorites' date=' are you counting Prodigal Son and Brother's Keeper as one episode or two?[/quote']I think they are usually counted as one ep for these polls - unlike Golden Triangle for example which is always 2 separate eps.

Good spot - I think you are right - I was just using the listing on the favourite ep thread but I think there's an error there.timm525 - can you please check the numbers of the eps you've got on the favourite ep thread - I think it has got a little muddled with Little Prince, Milk Run, and the Score. Thanks.Some great scenes in there mjcmmv - I also love the 'It was you' scene in Redemption in Blood - in fact it might just be the best acted scene from DJ in the whole 5 seasons - you see a whole spectrum of emotions on his face in that scene. Magic.

Favorite Scenes of All TimeI also love the 'It was you' scene in Redemption in Blood - in fact it might just be the best acted scene from DJ in the whole 5 seasons - you see a whole spectrum of emotions on his face in that scene. Magic.I agree. His acting is priceless in this scene. First he's confused, bewildered, trying to piece it all together and as he begins to realize what she has done, his face transforms like "Mr. Hyde". It was almost frightening! When I first saw it, I was sure he was going to kill Celeste.

[Sonny-Burnett]

That is a great scene in Redemption in Blood amd I am also partial to the scene at the gas station in Evan where Sonny tells Rico about his friend that he didn't stand up for. A great scene cementing the bond between Crockett and Tubbs and shows DJs range in acting.

Another good one! How could I forget?!?!:confused:

Thanks.[/quote']Tim tells me the order is the production order rather than the order on the DVD's or even the airing date order - anyhow, I guess as long as we stick to the same listing then we can't go wrong - I'd suggest using the ep no's on the full listing as given on the Favourite Episode thread.

[timm525]

Sorry for the confusion gang. I took the order off the glossary which was done by the production date, not the order on the DVDs which aired. I did this because it was an easy copy and paste to get the ep. number and the title all in one shot to add to the poll.This was the way it was done on .info and that is how it ended up being added to .ws so that they were the same.

[rodriguezisdead]

Couple more scenes which are personal faves:Season 4 - Like A Hurricane - Ep 076 - The 'Do You Wanna Talk' Scene as Sonny tells Gina at OCB lockers he's getting marriedSeason 4 - Mirror Image - Ep 090 - Burnett fires a second bullet into the corpse of the drug dealer he's just murdered as he orders the others to get into the boot of the MercedesWhen it comes to the vote itself I'd also love to read not only what fans have voted for, but also why - I won't do it for all the Scenes I've suggested for the poll as there are just too many! But if I voted for just 3 or 5 scenes then I'd love to tell people exactly what I love so much about those scenes.I also feel that if we're looking for the most popular Scene then we might not need to select a huge number of scenes - everyone will have their own personal favourites, and I might be completely wrong, but my gut feel is that there might not even be a dozen scenes which are true 'heavyweight contenders' - and we've possibly listed most of them above already....

[chum981]

Best three scenes:1. In the Air Tonight (Pilot)2. Brothers in Arms (Out Where the Buses Don't Run)3. Gas station "The Talk" scene (Evan)

[chum981]

Honourable mention not mentioned in this thread yet:Baseballs of Death - the airport scene where Tubbs, Castillo and Switek have their guns drawn on Ernesto Guerrera at the airport

[Guest neworder]

Honourable mention not mentioned in this thread yet:Baseballs of Death - the airport scene where Tubbs' date=' Castillo and Switek have their guns drawn on Ernesto Guerrera at the airport[/quote']Agreed, would be definately in my top 5 if not for the re-used Stinger footage...for that its in my top 10 scenes

[Tommy Vercetti]

Baseballs of DEath is a rubbish episode. But I like the closing sequence even though the song is bad and not a good choice.

[Kristina]

I love this scene in Prodigal Son:I watched it like 3 weeks ago, and I loved that scene.. Jan Hammer's Tubbs and Valerie music fits so well in that scene

[Pandina]

Most of the scenes I love are already listed, I add these:Season 1 – Smuggler’s Blues – Ep 15: conversation between Jimmy and Crockett in the hotel room Season 3 - Killshot - Ep 48: opening scene with song "Eminence Front"Season 3 - Shadow in the dark - Ep 51: Crockett and Tubbs argue in the bar

[agent 47]

I would have to say the whole series.

[chum981]

Season 1 - Milk Run - Ep 013 - During "Rain" (what an excellent way to capture the mood, and the way the different characters are shown one by one, from inside and outside the hotel, during the heavy rain...for me this is a real highlight of MV)

[chum981]

Season 3 - Down for the Count - Ep 057 - Death of Larry (Surprisingly, no one has mentioned this yet - another very memorable moment in MV - still gives me a lump in my throat when I watch it - perhaps the scene could have been done a little better, but still it is very memorable)

[vicefan]

Gosh, there are so many great scenes. I guess if I had to choose I'd pick the one where Rico and Sonny punch each other on the St. Vitus in Brother's Keeper. That scene made me fall in love with the show and the two characters.

Favorite Episode of all time

Season 1 - Milk Run - Ep 013 - During "Rain" (what an excellent way to capture the mood' date=' and the way the different characters are shown one by one, from inside and outside the hotel, during the heavy rain...for me this is a real highlight of MV)[/quote']Oooh, yes! That is a great scene. In fact, I'm surprised at myself for forgetting to put it on my list since I'd put that one up in my top 5. The music, the rain...Sonny and Rico looking out the window at the downpour. It was a great moment!
