Ok, since the DVD is coming very soon, I thought we should get this message board kicking. So what was everyones favorite scenes? and why?

Here are mine:

1) Final Battle/Blackwolfs Demise; That scene was awesome, I love large scale battles and there was some really cool and inteteresting animation and rotoscoping used. I also liked the moments when the elves picked up the guns and were using them, and the music during the battle was great. And Blackwolf's demise was awesome and very much in character with Avatar's cynicism. And it was great "Oh yeah, one more thing. I'm glad you changed your last name you son of a bitch!" and blam blam. awesome.

2) The Peace Weehawk chase. Very cool and when I saw that when I was 12 I was so pumped for the movie.

3) The introduction of Avatar as an old man, smoking his cigar with his foot and just generally being an old fool.

4) Weehawk saving Avatar when he's all out of it.

That's all I can think of.

2 months till Wizards comes to DVD!

Just rewatched the movie today, and one scene I'd forgotten stood out:

When Weehawk was going to kill Ellinore, Blackwolf's woman comes out, clutching her baby, and yells: "Stop, elf! Blood on blood flowing, fathers and sons dying... brothers and lovers spilling false hate and rivers of life flowing away. Fool elf!. Think your sword is always quick, but what else? Think!"

Kinda melodramatic, but even the mother of Blackwolf's child realized that most of the violence was senseless. *cue "War" by Edwin Starr*

And of course "They killed Fritz!"

There is no objective reality... and that's Sucker Punch

When Avatar gets angry with the fairies.
"I call upon all forces of darkness. Oh, winds of abysses howling through the stars... and eons of centuries."

The final confrontation between Blackwolf and Avatar was simply priceless.
