A LOT Marvel StudiosĪt the culmination of the excellent Doctor Strange debut, Benedict Cumberbatch tricks Dormammu into a pact to leave Earth alone by trapping him in an eternal time-loop. Here are the moments that wore out your pause button in 2016. And 2016 has been full of those moments from day one. They probably won’t push the cinematic envelope quite as much as these films did, though.That's where the pause button comes in - and mercifully, in combination with the HD experience of blu-rays, you won't struggle with jumping lines of interference as you try to find the last remaining secrets hidden in Marvel's latest offerings.īut there's also something timeless about pause moments: in the past the sexiest, most disgusting and most unbelievable moments in film have had viewers reaching to freeze them to enjoy them for longer. If you found CineFix’s Top 10 Sex Scenes of All Time to be tamer than you anticipated then may I suggest that you head out in the merry world of the internet to find a barrage of other scenes that will probably be more in line with what you are after. Even if the rest of the film is a bloated, overly melodramatic, preposterously self-indulgent monstrosity. Finally, capping off CineFix’s Top 10 list is the famously steamy scene from James Cameron's Titanic - and as anyone who was a teenager in 1997 can attest to, this scene more than deserves to be included. It wouldn’t have been right if CineFix didn’t find room for Trey Parker and Matt Stone’s ingenious celebration of doll on doll action in Team America: World Police - even if the fact that it came (pun most definitely intended) in ninth place is an obvious oversight. That film was preceeded on teh list by the love scene between Jon Voight’s paraplegic character and his nurse, played by Jane Fonda in Coming Home - which was way ahead of its time but is still just as evocative and sensitive today.ĬineFix made sure not just to celebrate male on female relationships, as Weekend’s tender and non-judgemental male-on-male sex scene and Blue Is The Warmest Color’s delightfully shot and intimate lesbian dalliance took up positions eight and seven, respectively, on the list. In fifth is Eyes Wide Shut’s orgy, which was decadently shot by the always-masterful Stanley Kubrick and centers a stern-yet-vulnerable performance from Tom Cruise - even though his face is completely covered throughout. If you don’t know what the latter implies, you should go and ask your parents and probably shouldn't have watched the video up top. He does this by having them kiss for two seconds and then cutting to a train going through a tunnel. Alfred Hitchcock uses a jump cut that takes viewers from the film’s thrilling finale on Mount Rushmore to its denouement on a train carriage - before then using the final shot to imply that Cary Grant and Eva Marie Saint’s characters are about to have sex. North By Northwest takes the number two slot, and even though it is far from explicit, it deserves recognition for its symbolism. It’s poignant, realistic, bold, artsy and truly original. CineFix’s top spot was taken up by Nicholas Roeg’s hauntingly brilliant Don’t Look Now, which sees a back and forth of Donald Sutherland and Julie Christie both making love and walking around and talking afterward. Each of their picks is, for the most part, extremely different from the last, while an eclectic array of erotic moments are honored and it’s thoroughly explained why each of them were chosen. With credit to CineFix, they didn’t just go for the most obvious and celebrated sex scenes in movie history. Is there a better way to brighten up your Wednesday than enjoying an 11-minute video of what is basically softcore pornography? If there is, I don’t want to know about it.
