What movies made you stand up and cheer at the end in the theater?

Years ago when I saw The Three Musketeers, the one with Michael York, at the end of the movie when the Musketeers saved the Queen the audience stood up and cheered. It was so much fun to be part of that audience. What movies have you seen where you had a similar experience?

But I’ve had that happen three times — all three at sneak previews for SciFi films.

The first time was during “Star Trek: Generations” — When Lursa and Betor’s ship is destroyed, the whole theater spontaneously stood up and cheered.

In a sneak preview of “Independence Day” — When they blow up the enemy ship.

In the early charity screening of “The Phantom Menace” — No, not when the annoying kid blew up the driod ship. Instead, when Obi Wan cut Darth Maul in half. We all cheered.

It has only happened when we have a group of core, dedicated fans together. In situatiuons where the “general public” is mixed in, I’ve never seen a sponaneous explosion of cheers like that.

I am referring to my favorite film of all time, Casablanca (1942).

Whenever I’ve seen it in a movie theater (and seeing it at home can’t hold a candle to seeing it in a theater), the spine-tingling “Marseillaise” scene brought the audience to its feet, compelled everyone to sing along and ended with audience members cheering and yelling, “Vive la France!” along with the characters on the screen. A positively exhilarating experience.

Perhaps because I live in New York, the following snippet of dialogue also has brought a delighted audience to its feet with cheers and raucous applause:

Major Strasser: Are you one of those people who cannot imagine the Germans in their beloved Paris?
Rick: It’s not particularly my beloved Paris.
Heinz: Can you imagine us in London?
Rick: When you get there, ask me.
Captain Renault: Hmmh! Diplomatist!
Major Strasser: How about New York?
Rick: Well, there are certain sections of New York, Major, that I wouldn’t advise you to try to invade.

They just don’t make them like that anymore {sigh}.

at the end of Pursuit of Happyness (I know, I know, that’s how they spelled it…there’s a joke in the movie about the misspelling)…

You couldn’t help but feel such emotion at the end of this movie. It was based on the real life story of Chris Gardner…

“Will Smith (in an Oscar-nominated role) and his real-life son Jaden star in this tearjerker about a struggling single parent determined to build a better life for himself and his child. Chris Gardner is smart and talented, but his dead-end salesman job barely pays the bills. When he and his 5-year-old son are evicted from their apartment, they face trying times as Chris takes on an unpaid internship at a stock brokerage firm with hopes of getting rich someday.”

You just feel so bad for the character and his son throughout the whole movie, but feel his determination as well. You just feel so proud of him in the end…Great movie!

This was such an amazing movie experience–I don’t think there were ever sci-fi movies so good before this came along. All through the movie people laughed, clapped, cheered and hissed (at Darth Vader, of course!). Close to the end, when Han Solo came along and blew away the fighters so Luke could take his shot at the Death Star, people were jumping out of their seats cheering, clapping and almost dancing with delight.

George Lucas revolutionized sci-fi movies forever. It was no longer enough to just have a (not very) believable Creature From the Stars who came to wreak havoc. Suddenly sci-fi movies had to work as real movies–a plot that wasn’t immediately obvious, characters you cared about, situations you could imagine as real. Quite an achievement, and a darned good movie to boot!

We saw this in a big, fancy theater in Chicago that probably seated 500 people or so (I really don’t know how many, but it was BIG). I remember that when the movie ended and everyone got up to leave, the ushers had a hard time herding us all out because people were standing around in groups, strangers-now-friends recounting their favorite scenes and bits of dialogue. It was one of those instant-bonding experiences, never to be forgotten.
