You were so scary at night.

I'm remembering two scenes from a movie, or maybe two movies, that were brought up in terms of realistic gun fights and such.

First scene had two guys leaving a confrontation with another group. One would move back, take position and yell "covering!" Then the other would do the same. Went on long enough to be sort of comical.

Second scene was a guy jumping into an empty fountain for cover and gets all hosed up on the broken glass that was inside.

Thanks in advance!

This is for a TV show so I'm not sure if this is the right place to post it but it's going to drive me crazy if I don't ask somewhere.

I swear this is from some '90s show, it's an episode several seasons in possibly a season finale episode. These two characters are somewhere in the woods or maybe just a wooded backyard (like filmed in Vancouver vibes), one is kind of a mentor character and the other is his student who at the beginning of the series was a fresh faced kid and now after a couple seasons has turned into kind of a angry aggressive rear end in a top hat/frenemy of his old teacher. They get into a fight and his teacher ends up killing him even though he doesn't want to. I also seen to remember feeling like the show really declined in quality once they killed off this character, and it lasted for only one more session after this episode and then was cancelled.

For some reason I've had this vague recollection in my mind for decades and up until 5 minutes ago I was sure it was from the last episode in season 5 of the Highlander TV series. Now that I've watched this episode again, I'm not sure I even made it this far in the series my first time around and have absolutely no idea what show I might be remembering!

Trying to remember the name of a dumb action movie from the 80's or 90's I saw on TV years and years ago.

It was a movie based around a pilot and an actor flying a fighter jet that gets shot down, and then they get captured and end up talking to the "bad guy" who is also an American pilot that couldn't fly in America so he is flying for whoever the bad guys are.

I remember the actor was flying with the pilot as part of prep for an upcoming movie, and in the "movie" they were going to have a scene where he gets shot down and was going to have a big monolgue, but the actual pilot just says thats stupid you would just say "poo poo poo poo poo poo poo poo". And sure enough that's what happens in the movie later on.

I don't think so but I'm also really doubting my own memory at this point. I spent I don't know how many hours yesterday going through lists of shows that aired from 1980-2005 in the US and Canada looking for anything that might jog my memory. The Highlander TV ep I thought it was has a totally different setting (an abandoned mall and not in the woods), and if I remember anything about this it is mostly how I felt after watching it, it was a very sad and touching scene. The Highlander episode essentially jumped the shark and introduced some completely new concept to the show at the 11th hour and killed off a character in a way that was beyond ridiculous and not at all sentimental.

I have no clue either, but I though I'd point out that Highlander had a spin-off series too. Raven, or something.

Highlander did this a lot with the mentors vs students dynamic. It could be Duncan killing his protégé Richie, but the way the characters are described doesn't really fit. Duncan gets possessed by a demon and kills Richie thinking he's Kurgan or some other big evil villain and deeply regrets what he's done.

It could also be a dozen different characters, older Immortals that inducted newer Immortals into The Game were very often beheaded by their own students who went on to become very powerful monsters of the week for Duncan.

artsy fartsy: May 10, 2014; You'll be ahead instead of behind. Hello!

I have two:

1) A kids movie probably from the '90s, where the young protagonist's cousin(?) comes to stay with him and he brings some novelty joke items, including a couple of those plastic fake vomits. I remember him holding up the vomits and explaining how one was original and one had peas and carrots.

2) A much newer movie, a violent thriller featuring a couple who committed crimes together. There was a disturbing scene near the end that is the only thing I actually remember about this movie--the couple have a woman tied up, then start making out with her in between them and strangle her to death as they kiss.

The Duncan killing Richie ep is what I thought it was, but I've been watching through the Highlander series here for the last month or so and nothing else has fit what I remembered. I've still got the last season to go but I'm feeling pretty confident that I never saw season six in the first place and that I must be remembering some other show.

I saw a bit of a weird Japanese film while I was in college. The scene I saw was about broke hungry students making their own �fried eggs� by jizzing into a frying pan and cooking it. It would have been pre-2010, but definitely modern day.

Didn't they do something similar in Dark Skies, the X Files a like but set in the 60s.
Long time since I saw it and forget how it ends, could be totally wrong. But I seem to remember the fresh face kid goes evil near the end.

I remember that the fresh-faced kid ended up becoming Charles Manson in the last episode, and Carl Sagan helped set up a sting operation using Ronald Reagan to lure aliens into a trap. It was a weird show.

This movie I can�t remember the title of was about a vampire. I think it was a vampire, but could possibly have been some kind of demon in the form of a man?

It was set in modern times.

The only thing I can remember about it is that there was a scene of the vampire sitting in a chair reading a Bible, just in complete hysterics, like it was the funniest thing he�d ever read.

It just kind of came out of the blue, and struck me as funny at the time, just completely unexpected.

e: I think I saw this sometime in the late 90s to early 00s, so it�s not newer than that.

Sweet_Joke_Nectar: Jun 7, 2007; i'm a little shai :3

Been trying to remember this for years. Scarce details. Watched on a friends TV, I believe they had a DVD of it.

LGBTQ film, saw sometime between 2008-2012. Premise IIRC is that a gay man gets involved with a married man and the man will not leave his wife. I could've sworn the man who wouldn't leave his wife was played by Patrick Wilson, but going through his IMDB I can't find it anywhere. So I may have misremembered that, or it's played by a Patrick Wilson type who isn't him.

THE KEY DETAIL I REMEMBER IS THE SPOILER ENDING OF THE MOVIE: The gay man grinds up a flower to poison either the husband or the wife or himself.
