Battle of Movie Moments: The Exorcism of Jonah Hill vs Mirror Monologue

Your Champion

The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (This Is The End)

VS.

Mirror Monologue (25th Hour)

The Case for The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (2):
Things go south very quickly for the cast of This Is The End, culminating in the demonic possession of Jonah Hill.  His friends gather around to try to exorcise him of the demon in what starts off as a fairly serious scene.  Then it becomes clear that Jay (Jay Baruchal) has no idea what he is doing, and it degenerates from that point on until (hilariously) no one is even paying attention to the demon possessed person they share a room with.

The Case for Mirror Monologue:
Sometimes you get really pissed off, and need to vent.  Edward Norton, in 25th Hour, knowing he goes to prison the following day, unleashes a torrent of hate at everyone and everything is this monologue to himself, in what can only be called a panacea of profanity.

Battle of Movie Moments: The Exorcism of Jonah Hill vs. Since U Been Gone Medley

Your Champion

The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (This Is The End)

VS.

Since U Been Gone Medley (Pitch Perfect)

The Case for The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (1):
Things go south very quickly for the cast of This Is The End, culminating in the demonic possession of Jonah Hill.  His friends gather around to try to exorcise him of the demon in what starts off as a fairly serious scene.  Then it becomes clear that Jay (Jay Baruchal) has no idea what he is doing, and it degenerates from that point on until (hilariously) no one is even paying attention to the demon possessed person they share a room with.

The Case for Since U Been Gone Medley:
Featuring most of the main cast, this moment in Pitch Perfect is a great introduction to several of the periphery characters while demonstrating just how much work goes into an acapella arrangement - mixing those singing the notes with those singing the melody in a celebration of the form, to the tune of one of Kelly Clarkson's biggest hits.

Battle of Movie Moments: Best. Death. Ever. vs The Exorcism of Jonah Hill

Your Champion

Best. Death. Ever. (Meet Joe Black)

VS

The Exorcism of Jonah Hill (This Is The End)

The Case for Best. Death. Ever. (1):

Meet Joe Black tells the tale of Death coming to visit an older to man to learn about life.  But in order to meet with Bill (Anthony Hopkins), he must first find a body to inhabit.  And he does, in a shocking - yet hilarious - scene.

Battle of Movie Moments: Be Prepared vs. Best. Death. Ever

Your Champion

Be Prepared (The Lion King)

VS

Best. Death. Ever. (Meet Joe Black)

The Case for Be Prepared (1):

Continuing a tradition of the villain having one of the best songs in the movie, The Lion King gives Scar one of the better villain songs in the canon.  The song is beautifully animated, using sickly greens to emphasize the sliminess of the villain while also using a Nazi-type march with the hyenas to show just how bad of news they were.  All villain songs should be this good.

Battle of Movie Moments: Church Fight vs. Be Prepared

Your Champion

Church Fight (Kingsman: The Secret Service)

VS

Be Prepared (The Lion King)

The Case for Church Fight (2):

Sometimes a movie shocks you with violence, and sometimes it does it with an amazingly choreographed fight scene.  Kingsman combines the two for a brutal moment in a church where the villain causes everyone to go into a rage and start attacking each other.  Highly trained Kingsman Harry Hart is also there and adds to the carnage.

The Case for An Inappropriate Car Commercial:

Southland Tales was a mess of a movie, but it did have one inspired moment when, out of the blue, this ad for Saltair appears.  If the commercial itself doesn't amuse you, then the reactions from John Larroquette and Mandy Moore immediately afterwards should.

Battle of Movie Moments: Church Fight vs. Clever Girl

We are relaunching the Battle of Movie Moments!  Each day, two scenes from various movies will be pitted against each other where you pick which one is the best.  This is based off of King of Disparate TV Mountain from Previously.tv, and the rules are the same:

1)  Vote for the one you think is the best
2)  The winner moves on until they are defeated, or reach 10 wins
3)  I will take user submissions via my email bommsubmissions@yahoo.com.  Submissions must include a brief argument for the clip, a link to a YouTube video with the clip, and the name you want attributed to the entry.

For the first matchup, we're going to use two from our earlier attempt that didn't face each other.  So without further ado....

Church Fight (Kingsman: The Secret Service)

VS.

Clever Girl (Jurassic Park)

The Cast for Church Fight:

Sometimes a movie shocks you with violence, and sometimes it does it with an amazingly choreographed fight scene.  Kingsman combines the two for a brutal moment in a church where the villain causes everyone to go into a rage and start attacking each other.  Highly trained Kingsman Harry Hart is also there and adds to the carnage.

The Case for Clever Girl:

Muldoon presents himself as the ultimate hunter throughout the run of Jurassic Park.  When the velociraptors get out, he bravely tried to hunt them down, only to be tricked - leading to this iconic line.
