Just a dog? Porthos dreams of being a bear, and you want to shatter those dreams by saying he's just a dog? What a horrible candle-snuffing word. That's like saying, "He can't climb that mountain, he's just a man", or "That's not a diamond, it's just a rock." Just.

Actually that opening scene in "Cliffhanger" when the girl was hanging on to her dear life. Since i'm not a big fan of heights that one definitely made me hold my breath. Hoping she could just keep hangin' on.

That reminds me...the opening for Ace Ventura:When Nature Calls. lol

When Mr. Chow and Mrs. Chan lock eyes in the entrance to the noodle shop during the rain in In the Mood For Love.

Men of Honor when they are actually holding their breath. I tried to do it along with them and failed horribly.

I do that. Whenever someone is holding their breath in a film I see if I can match it, and usually fail. Men of Hunour was such an awful premise for a film...

In a criminally underseen horror called Lighthouse, a man is hiding in a bathroom stall as a killer washes his hands. The killer turns to leave, walking down a set of steps. The man hiding in the stall knocks over a can and it begins to slowly roll towards the steps. If the killer reaches the door before the can reaches the steps the man hiding will survive. Incredibly suspenseful.
