Have you seen the "Casino movie" and what scene did you like best.
Personal i like the scene almost at the and of the movie most, it's one of the hardest scene's ive ever seen.
I'm speaking (writing) about the scene when Nicky and his brother got a beating with baseball bats, after this beating they where burried alive.

Sonny - There called G-clamps over. Yeah your right Don Michael about the baseball bat scene. I still remember first seeing that scene and the shock I felt from it. But a great scene. My favourita scenes are in the actual casino itself where the ex cons are working for 'Ace' trying to catch other cheats. I love the sofistication and intelligence of it. My plan to become rich involves me saving alot of money and putting it all on the roulette table - Black 21. Its a no doubt win. You all might laugh now...... 
So die all who betray Giuliano

My favorite scene is the one in which Ace and Nicky have a conversation in the middle of the desert. Just hearing what Nicky says puts a smile on my face every time I watch it.

Original posted by Sonny: I was always confused at Pesci's real concern here: Was he concerned about killing his friend? Or was he scared of the bosses back home. I think Nicky (Pesci) was scared of the bosses. He had reason enough for it. In the so called baseball bat scene it all became treu. He got whacked.

The best scene in my opinion is when Pesci gives his speech to the banker. He was great in goodfellas, but I don't know if he had a single speech in it as good as that.
Well, I woke up this mornin', and I got myself a beer. The future's uncertain but the end is always near....

Originally posted by josh: I don't know about the rest of you but almost all of my favorite scenes in movies are the ones accompanied with a good song. There we've got a point. Personally i think that the music is one of the strongest parts of each movie or scene. I think i would'nt like the Godfather so much if the music was made by Michael Jackson or so.

I liked Pesci's rant, and when he has sex with rothsteins wife. I also like the part where Ace monitors the floor of the casino with paranoid acuteness, and finally the end scene where he's in his house.

I just like how the film leads you on to believe DeNiro is dead the entire film, then it cuts to a man helping him out of the car (while he wears his ridiculous pink suit)

I liked the whole movie in general, but I haven't seen it for at least 4 years, so it's difficult to pick out a favourite scene. I do remember that Sharon Stone couldn't reach De Niro's level of acting, which affected the movie a little.
Thanks for reminding to watch it again!

My favorite scene is when Ace and Nicky beat up the cheaters at the Black Jack table.
'Can you deal with your left hand?' 'no'. Then they hit him on his right hand several times. Hehe, that's harsh.
