Favorite Scene?

~~~~I AM A SANDWICH~~~~

"I've been living off toxic waste for years, and I'm fine! Just ask my other heads!"

I'm still amazed by the scene in the woods with all the little fairies. It is fair to say that the animation in Wizards is uneven and often quite bad (tho I forgive it, seems many don't), but I think the creativity and quality of this one scene redeems the whole film, at least visually speaking. Seems to have influenced the guys who did a similar scene in "The Black Cauldron." Anyway, as a kid I was devastated when Shaun, the leader of the fairies (Mark Hamill, lol) was shot and there's a close up of him lying there dead. I thought about that for months later, it was really a summation of the film's message for me (technology destroying nature/beauty) and time hasn't diminished it's power IMHO, it's still sad. First battle scene is similar, when the old guy is preparing the kid for battle, then you later see his pipe drop and blood rivulet. It's subtle, effective and thoughtful (so unlike Bakshi! Ha ha).

Also love the scene in the court of the Fairyking because Elinore is funny when she's trapped and that thing is crawling up her leg. "I have always been verrrry...verryy...good...and sometimes I could even be a little better...Avatar...could you hurry it up a little please?" Or something like that. I like that Elinore, tho many would say she's a sexist stereotype bimbo,and I suppose she is, has moments where she's quite strong, intelligent and always sexy...


"You can keep your pyroxenes, magnetics and coarse-grained plutonics as far as I'm concerned..."

My favorite scene is when the two guys go into the church thing lookin for the priests. The two are hilarious, and the dim witted dude is the best.

"Heeeyy hey ord what is this place?"

"It's religion man, haven't you heard?"

"What're we lookin for?"

"The priests man, the priests!"

"...why?.."

"...I dunno.....guess 'cause you need God on your side stupid..."

"who's that? (it's them) who's that? who's that? (it's them it's them!)"

hahaha, great.

I have to agree with the Killed Fritz scene. My friends and I use to act it out in middle school.

Thanks for starting this page exorcissy72 (and for correcting Kant...'s mistakes on other boards for this movie). Many great scenes have been mentioned here. I would like to add one that amazed me at the time, and still does today. When Peace is sitting in wait for Weehawk and his friend while they are hiding in the valley the scene shifts from day to night with a beautiful change of color (especially for a pre-computer animated film) and then the ghost of a dinosaur retreats in fear. I know that since there is no dialogue it won't be on a lot of peoples list so, again, I thank you for creating a spot where I can mention it.

I'll make a good Gordon, Gordon!

I love the You Killed Fritz scene. I would have liked to know Fritz.

I love when Blackwolfs men are watching his video and playing around. Kind of funny seeing them not give a *beep*

I love the ending. It's a slap in the face to Blackwolf's use of technology. Using his own means of power against them.

Avatar smoking with his feet (short people you know) and the fight with the rat over chicken. lol

Seeing Necron 99 grow from being evil to being good as Peace. Makes you feel sorry for him when he dies.

I love the whole movie.

My favorite scene is the very beginning, as they describe all that transpired to get us to the start of the movie.
