This is not a list of the top 5 movie scenes, but a selection of some of my favourite movie scenes. Note these are not my favourite films of all time, but a matter of favourite scenes, which can include films that I’m not to fussed about but contain a scene that is worthy of recognition. Also only showing scene which are on youtube, so the final fantasy spirits within where she says one of the spirits is from a dying girl is not here. So the scenes are:

1. Obi-wan telling anakin that him loved him as his brother.
2. The Pursuit of Happyness were they pretend dinosaurs are real and sleep in the toilet.
3. In click were Michael Newman dies and realises his mistakes in life.
4. When he has to kill his only friend, his pet dog sam.

Kicking ass In Halo 3.

When you get a elbow in your back,

You betta start running because i'm going chase ya with my plasma sword,

Gonna run over you with my mongoose,

I hate those campers but no worries their going to get a tea-baging from the rest,

When i'm playing griffball expect a hammer in ya face,

I'm as fast as Gump when i'm carrying that flag,

When I log on and the green lights flash,

there's no stopping me in Halo 3,

Watch out for the needler gonna get ya.

A Short Verse - Frasier

I'm listening he tell us all,

with a little help from Roz,

who is loved by Noel and Bulldog,

Martin's chair has a character in a land of art,

Eddie who likes to stare,

Niles cleans every chair,

and glances at Daphne in hope,

one day his undying love for her will be shared,

Good night Seattle till we meet again.

Top 10 games of the last decade (2000-2009)

It’s been a great decade for games and here are my top 10 favourites from the last 10 years.

10. Halo 3

Platform : Xbox 360

Year : EU: September 26, 2007

Info: Final part of the Halo trilogy, interstellar war between 26th century humanity and the Covenant. You play as Master chief as a super-solider in this ongoing space war. It is a First person shooter and is regarded as one of the best in the online multiplayer arena.

Why I like it: Because it’s easy to pick up, but still a game that you can learn to master, a easy fun online multiplayer with plenty of online players and easy to use with plenty of options. A nice and good change from the mass market appeal of World war 2 shooters.

9. Boom Blox

Platform : Wii

Year: EU: May 9, 2008

Info: A game built on a physics engine that involves puzzles that are to do with destroying block towers with a ball. Several various types of puzzles that involve throwing a ball, to carefully removing blocks from a tower with a steady hand.

Info : Return to the classic 2d format with new 3d graphics. Mario must once again save princess peach. Mario’s journey now has the help of 3 friends as he travels across the various themed lands of the Mushroom kingdom

Why I like it: Mario is back to his classic style , whilst adding new ideas. A reminder to my favourite game of all time, super Mario world on the Super Nintendo. This game shows that a old retro style can still create one of Mario Finest adventures so far, but now friends can help aswell.

7. Wario Ware

Platform: Gameboy Advance

Year: EU: May 23, 2003

Info: Wario ware started the mini-game craze and is till the best in the business. A game full of short mini games lasting only seconds.

Why I like it: It is true madness and a blast to play. It never loses it’s a appeal and is still the best in mini game compilation. Always copied but never as good as Wario does it.

6. Gears of War 2

Platform: Xbox 360

Year: November 7, 2008

Info: The war against the locust continues for Marcus Fenix and the gang. As they go in search of Dom’s wife and a way to elimates the locust for good.

5. Super Monkey Ball 2

Platform: Gamecube

Year: EU: March 14, 2003

Info: Puzzle platforms and mini games that are about a family of monkeys who roll around in giant hamster plastic balls.

4. Burnout 2: Point of impact

Platform : Gamecube, Xbox, Playstation 2

Year: GameCube version: May 9, 2003

2. Mario Kart Double Dash

Platform: GameCube

Year: EU: November 14, 2003

Info: Mario and the gang return for more kart racing, but now with the ability of having 2 people in a kart and the first Mario kart game to have various karts to chose from.

Why I like it: The 2 people per Kart and all new tracks and weapons make this my favourite Mario kart game of them all. Some of the best karts and tracks started their life in this game. “Team up for twice the fun!” , was true.

1. Super Mario Galaxy

Platform: Wii

Year: EU: November 16, 2007

Info: Mario must once again save Princess Peach from Bowser, this time Mario must travel across space with the introduction of some excellent gravity platform physics.

Why I like it: It is the best Mario game of the decade and shows how Mario can be as good in 3d as he was in 2d. This games has some of the best platforming levels and has plenty of content and a high quality production and a game worth playing over and over again.

Thanks for reading and let’s hope this decade brings us some more classic brilliant games.
