    Top 10 Cheesiest Movie Moments

    http://channels.netscape.com/ns/movi...stmoviemoments

    No. 1 cheesiest movie moment is...
    Leading the pack is the scene from "Independence Day" when the president, played by the very forgettable Bill Pullman says, "We're going to live on! We're going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!" Empire calls that "a cornball speech that sounds like Shakespeare rewritten by kindergarteners."

    Be prepared to groan and cringe. Here are the other nine cheesy movie moments:
    2. "Top Gun"
    Tom "Maverick" Cruise tells Val "Iceman" Kilmer: "You can be my wingman anytime."

    3. "The Karate Kid"
    In the climax, Ralph Macchio has to face the final bout of a karate tournament with an injured leg. Of course, he wins--with an amazing move.

    4. "Four Weddings and a Funeral"
    At the end of the movie, Andie MacDowell finally gets together with Hugh Grant during a torrential downpour and says, "Is it still raining? I hadn't noticed."

    5. "Pearl Harbor"
    Enraptured Kate Beckinsale reads a love letter while the sun sets on Hawaii.

    6. "Stepmom"
    Cancer-stricken Susan Sarandon leads her kids in a sentimental family sing-along.

    7. "The Postman"
    A blind woman, who worships Kevin Costner as a messiah-like mail carrier, says, "You're a Godsend, a savior." He replies, "No, I'm just the postman."

    8. "An Officer and a Gentleman"
    Richard Gere sweeps Debra Winger off her feet on the factory floor and carries her off to a better life with him.

    9. "Patch Adams"
    Terminally-ill children show up in court to save the career of Patch Adams, played by Robin Williams. Empire gave Williams a special commendation, noting that many of his films are like "being dipped in a churning vat of Camembert."

    10. "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones"
    Hayden Christensen is lusting for Natalie Portman when he offers this discourse on the sand: "It's coarse and rough and irritating and it gets everywhere. Not like here. Here everything is soft and smooth."
    You're waiting for a train, a train that will take you far away. You know where you hope this train will take you, but you can't be sure. But it doesn't matter - because we'll be together.

    I'm afraid people do not know what the meaning of the word 'Cheesy' is. Its not really a word that any civial person would use but more so for those slang/uneducated.
    From those moments in the movies, its not 'Cheesiest' but more so poorly written or poorly acted out. That Independence Day speech by the President is very deep from the charactors and really makes me believe "its time to off the aliens". If you want a 'cheesiest' moment from Independence Day, then it goes towards the pilots who are flying. Pilots DO NOT talk or 'chatter' like that in battle. Having a sister thats a pilot, its totally unrealistic or of poor quality. Those moments are just written for a Hollywood effect in a real situation.

    Don't think this word can be used towards what these scenes are actally... stereotypes. The Pearl Harbor scene was beautiful but its a typical scene you would expect in a love story. Have anyone of you sat and watched the sun rise or set like that? It's indeed beautiful.

    I have to agree with one movie on that list thats 'poorly written'. Star Wars: Attack Of The Clones. It need better writting or acted out better. Either way, guys do not talk like that to girls. Natalie Portman is very beautiful but Hayden Christensen is comparing her to sand. Excuse me?
    In that same catagory, I'd place The Matrix Revolution when Trinity is dying. At that moment, I just said quite loud "Hurry up and die", receiving a clap and laughs from the audience not to mention friends. It depends on the acting and written scenes. Not such word and meaning for the word "chessy'

    What about Steven Seagal breaking a man's arm and then doing philosophy in On Deadly Ground.

    from that list i would take the postman quote as the ultimate cheesy moment, but i would also add the scene of trinity dying. that was the worst scene in the whole movie, the whole theater laughed at it. it should have been done much better, but with keanu reeves "acting" i guess that was the best they could do.
    somebody told me you have a boyfriend who looks like a girldfriend that i had in february of last year the killers

    You know, not everyone has seen the film yet?!

    I have but the movie is barely a week old and already you are giving away some pretty big points.

    I just hope that you don't do that for other big films that are coming out.

    She's just too pretty for Hollywood. I don't know, put her in a glass box and display her at the Metropolitan Museum of Art or something. - Jake on the topic of Scarlett Johansson.

    It's the scene where Ed Harriscomes into contact with jellyfish, but then the aliens push him to the surface because he's a big name star.

    I can only remember one cheesy moment in "The Mummy Returns" which looked so ridiculous I couldn't keep from laughing. When O'Connel and Himoteph are in the temple with the Scorpion King, and then O'Connel spears the Scorpion King. In that very same scene Himoteph runs in out of nowhere in the corner of the screen, gets on knees very tediously, raises his arms, and says "NOOOOOOOO!".

    ...Oh there was that moment in "Freddy Got Fingered" with the cheese and the cheese sandwiches. That was pretty......cheesy.
