I kinda want to kick Giles Winterbourne when he's camping out in the rain near his cabin but I'm not sure if that's fair...

someone needs to kick Giles. If he'd have stepped up and said something he would have gotten the girl straight away.

Playing the nice guy doesn't always work.

Kevin Mckidd's character does something similar in a film called the Rocket Post with the same results, except he doesn't die.

Ok, then I'd officially like to nominate that scene. So:

Twenty-One: Bobby shoots up in the bathroom
The Woodlanders: Giles camps out in the rain

What about Jasper in "The Holiday"? He needed kicking several times! Let's see, when he tells Kate Winslet's character he has a Christmas present for her and she is so happy, and then he deflates her by saying he hasn't actually bought it yet. And also the scene where he shows up in the US and assumes he can pick up where he left off, in spite of being engaged to someone else. LOL! I think that was about his whole role in the film, wasn't it?

You're 7Sis, so many slappable moments.

I like the scene where Jasper momentarily looks concerned for
Iris during the announcing of his engagement. It may be too brief
to use, but was very clout worthy.

And what about that sniveling, spoiled blond who was
crying in Will's arms when Dorothea walked in the parlor?
Didn't you want to slap that guilty look right off his face?

There was the scene where Marco condemns Veronica for
'persuading' King Henry to give them the necessary ships and
support to win the war?

Looks like we have enough for a vote. I'll compile a list this afternoon (PST), so if you have something to add, get it in ASAP. ;D

[ruthy]

May I suggest the scene from The Illusionist where Leopold gets aggressive with Sophie? He definitely needs a jolly good slapping AND a strategically-aimed right boot for that.

[maxx02]

, what a list.

Illusionist: Leopold slaps Sophie
HC: Marco condemns Veronica for her service to the King of France
The Holiday: Jasper's surprise visit to the US
The Holiday: The "promised" Christmas present
The Woodlanders: Giles insistence on sleeping in the rain
TO: Bobby shooting up in the Toilet
Victory: Attacking Alma
Victory: Knife through the hand of the gambler
AKT: You've been weighed, measured and...
LOZ: Polo
DW: "Cellularbating"
BTC: Torching the street person
CII: Continuing with Castlemain after he realizes his son is also one of her lovers
MM: On the sofa with "poodle-lady" when Dorthea catches them
AKT: Jocelyn will be saddled, broken and placed on the mantle with his other trophies.

Let me know if I've forgotten anything. I have omitted TOTS because we already have several clips and I'd like to get some of these other great scenes up on our site.

thanks!

Am I too late?

Two from Helen of Troy?

Quite a long scene, from when the seer tells Agamemnon that the goddess Artemis will provide favourable winds in return for his daughter's life, then tells him he must wield the knife himself, through to when the little girl is taken to her father, he whirls her around and then you hear the death and see the material of her dress moving in the breeze, finishing with the winds immediately picking up. There's a huge breadth of emotion across Rufus's face in that section, from horror at the suggestion, to sadness to resolve.

The second is the rape scene. No need to elaborate on that one!

[maxx02]

Nope and in fact I'll give everyone until tomorrow. I'll put up the poll then.

thanks for the great suggestions everyone.
