Inspirational movie speeches
In a thread in the Cardinals section Alan needed a pep talk so Maddogkf responed with:
What?! Over? Did you say over? NOTHING is over until WE
decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?
HELL, NO!
So what are you're favorite inspirational speeches from movies, serious or funny?

I thought Al Pacino's last speech to the tribunal at Chris O'Donnell's school in Scent of a Woman was brilliant.

Sylvester Stalone in Rocky IV after he beats the Russian boxer.
Just kidding. I laugh every time I see that movie and the ending.

How about Kevin Costner's closing argument/monologue at the end of JFK?

How about Gilbert's rousing speech during the football rally in Revenge Of The Nerds?

"Today . . . we celebrate . . . our Independence Day!"
Cheesy movie, but the speech still gives me goosebumps.

Without doubt the 'Inches Speech' from Pacino at the end of Any Given Sunday.
The Braveheart rant is pretty cool too. "They'll never take our.... FRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDOOOOOOOOMM!!!"

The monologue that Bob Murray has in Caddyshack about being the caddy for the Dali Lama - I laugh so hard everytime I see it. And he's poking dude in the neck with a pitchfork while he's talking - classic.
Also - Oscar Schindler's speech at the end of Schindler's List was amazing - I loved it.

If it was so classic, wouldn't you have remembered that it's BILL Murray, not Bob Murray??  |
