112. The nanny hangs: The Omen (1976):  This was creepy. Barack's...er I mean Damien, the son of Satan's, nanny commits suicide at a birthday party. She had a big old smile on her face and it allowed the Satanist nurse to come care for the boy. Not even Gregory Peck could defeat the Son of Satan.

113. What we do in life, echoes in Eternity: Gladiator (2000): One of the great movie speeches. It was short and informal showing you don't have to wear blue face to inspire troops.

114. Nuclear Rodeo: Dr Strangelove (1964): The world is ending, so why not ride a nuclear bomb all the way to the ground?

115. Hackman grabs Rooker by the balls: Mississippi Burning (1988): Hackman was so intense, people on the set feared for Michael Rooker during this scene.
