The Darjeeling Limited when

[sp] The three brothers are walking near the river arguing and the three boys are doing whatever (I can't remember what they were doing) and as the 3 main characters are arguing one of them goes "Look at these *******s." I was laughing my ass off! Then the three little boys fall in the river and Adrian Brody's character could save "his." Such a funny moment that turned so friggin heartbreaking! I was laughing and then was smacked across the face. Brilliant and unexpected moment.[/sp]
 
Here's one moment that caught me totally by surprise and 3 minutes later I was still going, "did that just happen?"

-Pirates 2: The Jack & Elizabeth kiss. I was like, "Whaaaa?" It was just one those things the movie flirted with but I thought NEVER would happen. I was shocked, SHOCKED! ;)

-Titanic: After Rose is rescued and Cal passed by her, for some reason I thought she was going to call after him but she just hid. So many years later I don't know why I thought she would go after him, but I did and I was dumbfounded when she turned her face. Hey, I was young! Hehe.

-A Perfect Murder: When Gwyneth kills the supposed "thief" and it turns out to not be Viggo. I was again fooled by a movie because I was grieving Viggo's death and boom, it wasn't him! Heh.

-28 Days Later: When I thought that Jim was going to die.

-The Hairdresser's Husband: Old movie but still. :spoiler: Mathilde's suicide and especially, her reasons for such. It's such a haunting ending, I'm still not over it a few years later.


This thread is for discussing general movie moments that you just didn't see coming. Again, generally. It could be something small or something really big. Spoiler for new movies applies, and that includes movies that have been on DVD for less than 3 months. :) If you're not sure if something is a spoiler, spoiler tag it anyway, and please, put a warning. The thread for discussing shocking movie endings or plot twists is here.
