1984 Richard Burton quoting the line
"Imagine a boot stamping on a human face forever" Still gives me chills.
Bill Paxton really nailed it another great actor gone too soon.
Avengers: Infinity War- "You should've went for the head." I never left a theater feeling sicker, more depressed, and hopeless, and haven't felt that way from a movie since
you should watch the end of "The Mist" then, absolutely horrible all hope is lost.
Leaving Las Vegas when we realize Nicholas Cage WILL drink himself to death.
I quote "Its game over, man. Game over" at least twice a week 😆 I don't know why but it's my favorite.
It's actually my wife's text alert for me. 😂
I once made a good friend because he heard me snarking to myself about 17 days in relation to our company
Thats my txt ringtone 😆
The ending in Seven 👌🏼
God that was brutal. Good pick.
I would argue the best “all hope is lost” line from ALIENS happens between Vasquez and Gorman in the air ducts:”You always were an a**hole Gorman.”
As much as I love the "game over, man" scene, you got a point.
I feel like the ending of "The Mist" could be in here. I mean... it's absolutely devastating what he has to do, and even WORSE is when he is saved just after what he did and is just screaming to the sky.
Ending of Dawn of the Dead 2004!
“I think I’ll just stay here a while. Watch the sunrise.”
Yeah, the island got me the first time too.
SUCH an underrated movie! I forget the guys name, but when he gets overran by zombies and says "it f***in figures!" And lights the flare to blow himself up with them. Absolutely epic.
@@Neo2k7 CJ. ✌️
The prologue of Avengers Endgame, when Thanos tells them “I am inevitable” while revealing he destroyed the infinity stones (preventing the avengers to undo the snap), resulting in Thor chopping his head off in frustration
Oh oh Dr Strangelove
I'd love it if Hollywood went back to making movies like Midnight Run.
We all would.
Nice to see some long overdue love for Midnight Run, a wonderful film that doesn't receive anything like as much respect as it's due.
Midnight Run is a great movie.
Maybe a bit tame, but for me the trash oven scene in Toy Story 3 perfectly embodies this feeling. Chilling and beautiful how they stop trying and just hold eachother.
The Whiskey outpost scene in Starship Troopers where Rasczak peers over the perimeter wall and see's an endless horde of arachnids swarming towards them. His face and subtle wipe of his nose is iconic!
So no Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid?
"I'm sorry Paul, I'm sorry" in Buried.
THE "ALL IS LOST" MOMENT!!
My Top 3:
3.: The Fly: Brundlefly begs for the mercy kill.
2.: In the Mouth of Madness: Movie theatre scene.
1.: Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb: Riding the nuke.
''Game over man!'' Forever the best! 😁 Great list though 👍🙌
The next to last scene in 'The Mist' is the epitome of all hope is lost.
If Matrix belongs on this list at all, the qualifying moment would be when Tank judges that they must euthanize Morpheus. Trinity's still keeping her secret, so the remaining third of the Neb crew must face the icy cold necessity of it.
They think they've broken the new-recruit rules for nothing.
They think Morpheus must become the sixth crewmate to die for nothing.
The last part of A Bridge Too Far with the guys in Arnhem being outnumbered by the bad guys
Midnight Run isn't spoken about enough, thank you.
If it has Bill Paxton in it, I am there !! :) As for 'Thief" with James Caan, I would place this in the top 20 greatest movies ever made. I rewatched it the other night and every scene was brilliant, engaging, and of course, Tangerine Dream just made it that much better.
Requiem for a dream
I was so depressed at the end of this movie. I refuse to watch it again
@@rachelranderson me too...
Seems like Robert Redford's" All is Lost" should have made the list based on the title alone.
I'm sorry Paul, I'm sorry" in Buried.
NO Cutler Beckette in Pirates at world end when the ship is being blown up?
Honorary opinion:
Army of Darkness: When the deadite army is overwhelming the castle's forces and the King declares the book be protected at all costs and that god save them all! Just then Ash comes through with his modified Oldsmobile!
King Kong, bug swamp scene.
Your list is wrong.
"Empire Strikes Back" has a pretty bleak moment close to the end.
Where the scene in Endgame where Cap (for a brief moment) was facing Thanos and his crew, ALL BY HIMSELF! That was the epitome of an "All hope is lost" moment.
Agreed about "Thief." Terrific engaging film. You all should go stream it right now.
Definitely the Diner Scene from Heat.
What happened to this channel? How has it died so badly?
Bernard Hill (Captain Smith Titanic), had other crushing moments as King Theoden in the second half of the LOTR trilogy......and sticking with the trilogy, would probably go with Frodo's "They're here" moment more of an 'all hope is lost' moment, when in hindsight Gandalf did return in greater strength, whereas Gondor then proceeded to get its @$$ handed to them.
The Mist. The Man shoots his his own son. It doesn’t get much more “it’s all over” than that.
Oof. Threads (1984) has at least 4 moments. Testament (1983) has a few, too. On The Beach has a great finale.
I’ve always wanted to see On the Beach. Was thinking of ordering the Blu-ray
The ending of Clive Barker's Dread is one of the most hopeless scene of all time
Mind blown! I've been living a lie for the past 20+ years thinking that gandalf says "Run you fools!"
Well ... now I know.
Great video overall!
For the longest time I thought he says "rally you fools" which seemed weird to me but I chalked it up to fantasy old english and stuff lol.
Old Man and the Sea.
WHERE'S JEFF DANIELS IN SPEED!?!?! Also, #1 The Coffee dude was Bob from BATMAN (1989)! Nicholson's good friend!
Was it the Jeff Daniel's moment, or when Keanu gets that phone call after? That outburst and cynical"we're all going to die" line really hit me hard.
@@rachelranderson Jeff’s “Oh Crap!” Eyes.
The Mist
FFS, thank you. That was going to be my example too. It should be legend for all time dark endings.
The entire third act of John Carpenter's 'Prince of Darkness'. Should have been the ACTUAL Number One on this list.
The Miracle Mile
Yes, love this movie!
Is WhatCulture not allowed to actually play the scenes they describe? So many of these lists are just no audio clips with the narrator telling us what happened. I’d rather see the actual clips instead of someone reading it off a paper.
"long live the king..." except why be a king when you can be a God zzilla.
"we're held on the gravitational field of the moon, what do we do???? .......wiiiiiiiiiii.....We Die!"
the last starfighter.
No offense to Midnight Run, which is definitely an amazing movie, but how can Avenger's Infinity War and Thanos' snap (and the resulting, dusty carnage) not be on this list at all???
This is the one that I was looking for. But, we knew it was likely to be "repaired" .
Bury
"It's Mark White"
I don't remember American Graffiti well enough to say, but I've read that the heartbreak is pretty powerful when the mystery dream girl on the phone tells the Richard Dreyfuss character that he and she are not to be.
I think that you are pushing some of these, especially the death of Gandolf considering it didn't mean all hope is lost. Just a beloved character supposedly dies. The one for me is from a TV show where Author Dent said so this is it we're going to die.
"Somehow, Palpatine returned." Any hope that movie wouldn't be a total flaming turd was completely extinguished there.
Swampland? Was there water in that desert that I missed?
Midnight Run is an absolute classic which I re-watch every year. My favorite De Niro performance.
Magazine, not clip.
Algorithm 👍🏾
Robert Redford in "All is Lost" should have been included...
It’s a magazine, not a clip
Where was Gondor when the Titanic fell?
Infinity war ending???????
I thought immortal joe stole the greenland, thats why he had water and stole furiosa. Am i wrong?
Toy Story 3
I'm pretty certain Gandalf says "Run. You fools", not "Fly. You fools". I could be wrong, but I'm fairly sure thats the line.
J.R.R. Tolkien > Quotes > Quotable Quote
(?)
J.R.R. Tolkien
“The Balrog reached the bridge. Gandalf stood in the middle of the span, leaning on the staff in his left hand, but in his other hand Glamdring gleamed, cold and white. His enemy halted again, facing him, and the shadow about it reached out like two vast wings. It raised the whip, and the thongs whined and cracked. Fire came from its nostrils. But Gandalf stood firm.
'You cannot pass,' he said. The orcs stood still, and a dead silence fell. 'I am a servant of the Secret Fire, wielder of the flame of Anor. You cannot pass. The dark fire will not avail you, flame of Udûn. Go back to the Shadow! You cannot pass.'
The Balrog made no answer. The fire in it seemed to die, but the darkness grew. It stepped forward slowly onto the bridge, and suddenly it drew itself up to a great height, and its wings were spread from wall to wall; but still Gandalf could be seen, glimmering in the gloom; he seemed small, and altogether alone: grey and bent, like a wizened tree before the onset of a storm.
From out of the shadow a red sword leaped flaming.
Glamdring glittered white in answer.
There was a ringing clash and a stab of white fire. The Balrog fell back and its sword flew up in molten fragments. The wizard swayed on the bridge, stepped back a pace, and then again stood still.
'You cannot pass!' he said.
With a bound the Balrog leaped full upon the bridge. Its whip whirled and hissed.
'He cannot stand alone!' cried Aragorn suddenly and ran back along the bridge. 'Elendil!' he shouted. 'I am with you, Gandalf!'
'Gondor!' cried Boromir and leaped after him.
At that moment Gandalf lifted his staff, and crying aloud he smote the bridge before him. The staff broke asunder and fell from his hand. A blinding sheet of white flame sprang up. The bridge cracked. Right at the Balrog's feet it broke, and the stone upon which it stood crashed into the gulf, while the rest remained, poised, quivering like a tongue of rock thrust out into emptiness.
With a terrible cry the Balrog fell forward, and its shadow plunged down and vanished. But even as it fell it swung its whip, and the thongs lashed and curled about the wizard's knees, dragging him to the brink. He staggered and fell, grasped vainly at the stone, and slid into the abyss. 'Fly, you fools!' he cried, and was gone.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring
@@johnburns9634 ...that's really an unnecessary amount of effort to demonstrate whether the film quote was right or not. If I could be semi-arsed I could just look up the clip on youtube to confirm it or not. In fact, I'll do it now. One moment please
@@rbarnett3200 Or you could read the lips of Gandalf in the clip provided.
Whatta you know, there's actually some controversy over whether he said "run" or "fly". I've watched that scene several times and I always heard "run". Fly seems like a stupid think to say because they can't although it sort of means flee, but run seems more likely as that is what they do. Then again, I don't really care.
@@johnburns9634 Meh. I suppose.
