Skippable scenes/parts in good movies

[Clive42]

To be clear, when I say skippable I don't necessarily mean bad. Moreso scenes that are hard to get through, are off putting, negatively affect the tone, end up being a drag, feel meaningless, you can't appreciate as much as other scenes and along those lines.

Falling down - Neo Nazi scene - This scene is kinda off putting and on top of that, everyone who Douglas encounters is an everyday dikkhead, but this guy instead is sickening and a weirdo in comparison. Yes even weird compared to the homeless guy in the park and the not economically viable guy.

Die Hard - "Tell my wife I love her if I don't make it out" over the walkie talkie - Not a bad scene, and makes a lot of sense as to how vulnerable Mclaine feels going up against the enemies. But I've always felt it was kinda a drag, especially as it was in the middle of some of the most hectic scenes.

War of the Worlds - Tim Robbins basement - Say no more

Transformers - Sam at the police station with that dumbass cop after getting arrested - If theres one scene I'd remove from the film, it would be this.

The scene in John Wick 3 with Keanu and Halle Berry having the shootout together. shyt felt way too long and repetitive.

The curb stomp in American History X

if its a good movie i dont want to skip any scene

I guess the Matrix Reloaded Architect scene, went way too long

 

[Erratic415]

The Pulp Fiction part in the hotel with Bruce Willis and his girl.

I love 'on her majestys secret service' but they could have cut back on a few scenes. Most notably the Sir Hillary scenes.

Gangs of new york had a few, haven't seen it in a while so I cant be specific

Agreed. I loved the movie and the series as a whole, but I was about ready to tap out during that scene, and it was really just because it was too long.

I think the problem is that they tried to get in enough action for both of them. That would've been a great time to have John get sidelined somehow, or get separated and focused on one enemy while she got her one solo showcase essentially, since showing that there was at least one other person capable of John's level of lethality seemed to be the goal.

Everything after basic training in Full metal Jacket.

I can't imagine skipping anything in DIE HARD. That's insane

Theres no right or wrong answer but im just curious, what about that scene were you not feeling?

The scene I mentioned is only 1-2 minutes long so I tolerate it

Too preachy

I love how shook tre & Ricky were and Grady gangsta. But the dialogue when Furious started talking to me as a kid was boring and still is as a adult. I get it but shyt didn’t feel real to me

charles s Dutton scene in Menace was as real as it gets to me. shyt felt geniue.
