I must admit, I love fast-forwarding to my favorite scenes on my DVDs (not so much my VHS tapes because it's really slow). Here's some of my favorites:
1. Shawshank Redemption: FF to Dupree's escape, then watch up to where the Warden blows his brains out.
2. Working Girl: FF to Sigourney Weaver's character getting her comeuppance and Melanie Griffith's character getting that dream job.
3. Aliens: FF to the battle between Ripley in robot suit fighting Alien Mother.
4. It's a Wonderful Life: FF to Bailey asking Mr. Potter for a loan, and watch until the end.
5. Saving Private Ryan: Watch the opening battle, FF to final battle.
I've got plenty more, but I'm curious: What to you FF to?

Usually if I buy a DVD and watch it repeatedly I end up watching the whole thing every time. But it's an interesting question, and I did come up with one FF that I usually do:
The Princess Bride: FF to the Fire Swamp and watch to the end from there.
[SIZE="1"](Vizzini: "You fell victim to one of the classic blunders. The most famous is: 'Never get involved in a land war in Asia.' But, only slightly less well known is this: 'Never go in against a Sicilian, when death is on the line!"
Not my fav quote - but timely!!)[/SIZE]

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

Jimbow,
"You keep using that word. I do not think it means, what you think it means."

Just kidding.
Did that make sense?

I can't really think of any particular scene in a movie I f.f. to, just to watch. I typicaly watch them from beggining to end. But I can think of several movies that I f.f. through certain scenes.
