Sun is coming up in eight minutes if you
live to see it the world will end maybe
that’s the way it should be
welcome to watchmojo.com and today we’re
counting down our picks for the top 10
hardest decisions in movies three Peter
you understand I’m saying just think
about it why she’s gonna kill your
sister Annie’s gonna die if you don’t do
this cut the rope just cut them up for
this list we’re taking a look at
impossible choices characters have had
to make in movies seeing as how these
decisions are all pivotal plot points a
spoiler alert is definitely in order
David
if you kill him he will win number ten
all of the choices the Saw franchise
before dawn maybe or choice
although the Saw movies rely heavily on
graphic imagery each film also possesses
a certain degree of psychological horror
the jigsaw killer constructs appalling
games that have no true winners your
ways in this round in the first film two
men find themselves chained up in an
unknown location pitted against each
other just one of them can leave this
bathroom alive even then the only means
of escape is foot amputation he doesn’t
want us to cut through a change the
games only get more sadistic as the
series goes on especially in the sixth
film where a man must decide which of
his colleagues will die and who will get
to live to play another game only one
can exit this room and the choice of
whom falls upon you no matter what game
jigsaw is playing we wouldn’t want to be
in any of his victims shoes that we know
for sure
he always had a choice
number nine mortal or immortal Hercules
a God turned mortal Hercules aspires to
reunite with his parents on Mount
Olympus before reclaiming his godhood
though Herc must go the distance people
always do crazy things when they’re in
love by making the ultimate sacrifice in
the name of love wonder boy finally
earns his immortality and is welcomed
home however returning to Mount Olympus
would mean leading his life on earth
behind for eternity father this is the
moment I’ve always dreamed of although
he’s literally been to hell and back to
achieve his dream Herc discovers that
his place isn’t with the gods but with
the love of his life I wish to stay on
earth with her I finally know where I
belong
mortal or immortal there’s no denying
but Hercules is a true hero shout it
from the mountaintops number 8 light
side or dark side star wars episode 6
Return of the Jedi Oh young Skywalker
you will die
sometimes people dig themselves in so
deep that they reach the point of
no-return when Anakin Skywalker sides
with Palpatine in order to save Padme he
surrenders to the dark side and becomes
Darth Vader the misguided Jedi thus
loses his humanity killing younglings
blowing up planets and chopping off his
own son’s hand regardless Luke still
believes that there’s hope for his
father when Luke is at the Emperor’s
mercy Vader is left with two options
save his boy or remain loyal to the dark
side after years of dedicated service
in the end Vader sees the light and
finds Redemption hey it’s never too late
to make amends help me take this mask
off number seven east coast or west
coast Superman
those things I can do all those powers
and I couldn’t even save him
in the original Superman Lex Luthor
launches a nuclear missile to destroy
the west coast of the United States just
to make sure his arch nemesis doesn’t
get in the way
criminal mastermind sends another
warhead to the East Coast even care
where the other missiles headed do you
certainly I do I know exactly how New
Jersey
Superman choses to stop the missile
headed for New Jersey first while he
makes it to San Andreas to save a few
lives it’s too late for Lois Lane
although Superman is forbidden from
interfering with human history he
decides to save the woman he loves by
reversing time who knew he could do that
granted this is a total cop-out in terms
of storytelling and makes little sense
but our hero is still presented with a
genuine ethical dilemma problem with men
steel there’s never one around when you
want you know what happened me while you
were off flying around number six Rachel
Dawes or Harvey Dent The Dark Knight
you’re gonna have to play my little game
if you want to save one of them where
Superman can just rewind time Batman
must live with the consequences of his
actions The Joker pushes Batman to his
limits when he kidnaps two of Gotham’s
finest
and plans to blow him up in separate
locations I’m in a warehouse they got me
wired in these oil drums em to the Dark
Knight chooses to rescue Rachel
and the police raced to save Harvey
since the Joker isn’t exactly known for
his honesty it shouldn’t come as a
surprise that he reversed the addresses
Batman ends up saving Harvey while the
cops can’t reach Rachel in time know the
Joker’s chaos continues to spread like
wildfire when he rigs two fairies with
explosives and makes the passengers
decide which one goes boom each of you
has a remote blow up the other bow he
certainly knows how to split people down
the middle all right listen
some
number five Mary Jane
or the children spider-man this is why
only fools are heroes because you never
know when some lunatic will come along
with the sadistic choice if you haven’t
noticed
being a superhero sucks sometimes in Sam
Raimi’s 2002 blockbuster the Green
Goblin shows spider-man the cost of
being a hero by confronting him with a
dastardly choice Let Die the woman you
love suffer little children clutching
the woman Peter Parker loves in one hand
and a tram car filled with children in
another the villain forces our hero to
decide who will live and who will fall
to their doom
don’t do it Goblin we are who we choose
to be
through some slick web slinging though
he manages to catch mary-jane and grab
onto the cable car to gobby attempts to
intervene but the people of New York
actually come to Spidey’s aid for a
change
while spider-man avoids making an
impossible choice he still must answer
to his green nemesis number four life or
death Harry Potter and the Deathly
Hallows Part two I thought he would come
in order for Harry Potter to become the
Boy Who Lived his parents had to lose
their own lives to Voldemort during
Harry’s first year at Hogwarts
the Dark Lord offers him the chance to
resurrect his mom and dad in exchange
for the Philosopher’s Stone tell me
Harry would you like to see your mother
and father again Harry sees right
through his deceit however and avoids
temptation laia Harry is faced with an
even more challenging dilemma several
years later
upon realizing Voldemort can only be
killed if he sacrifices himself the Boy
Who Lived
come to die knowing that the Wizarding
World will be doomed otherwise Harry
nobly surrenders our hearts all sank
when Voldemort chanted Avada Kedavra but
this was all fortunately part of
Dumbledore’s grand plan a part of him
lives within me doesn’t it did it was
just destroyed many moments ago by none
other than Voldemort himself number 3
Nemo or dory Finding Nemo in an act of
rebellion clownfish Nemo swims into open
water and is taken by divers on a daring
voyage to find his lost son Marlin gains
a loyal friend and the forgetful dory oh
hey I’ve seen a boat yes uh-huh
and it passed by not too long ago a
white one hi I’m Doris where which way
happily Marlon is eventually reunited
with Nemo but Dory is caught in a
fishing net seconds later Nemo quickly
thinks of a plan to rescue her but
Marlin is unwilling to risk losing his
son again the overprotective father
comes to realize however that Nemo isn’t
a little boy anymore
charging into the net Nemo shows his
fellow fish that all they need to do is
just keep swimming
keep swimming
[Music]
marlyn ultimately learns that letting go
isn’t easy but it’s an essential part of
being a parent
[Music]
number two red pill or blue pill the
matrix do you want to know what it is
neo must make numerous difficult choices
throughout the Matrix trilogy including
when the architect gives him the option
of saving Trinity or Zion yet the most
crucial decision neo makes is whether or
not to learn about the matrix in the
first place it is the world that has
been pulled over your eyes to blind you
from the truth what truth through clever
symbolism Morpheus gives neo two
selections you can either take the blue
pill and keep living in a false reality
or take the red pill and venture further
down the rabbit hole take the blue pill
the story ends you wake up in your bed
and believe whatever you want to believe
you take the red pill you stay in
Wonderland and I show you how deep the
rabbit-hole goes
although he doesn’t regret facing the
truth others would argue that ignorance
is bliss if we found out the real world
was overrun with machines the blue pill
honestly would have been tempting me
before we unveil our number one pick
here are some honorable mentions
[Applause]
you chose poorly
that plane leaves the ground and you’re
not with him you’ll regret it maybe not
today maybe not tomorrow but soon and
for the rest of your life but what about

girl

Auschwitz with her son Yan and daughter
Ava a Nazi informs her that one of her
children can go work in a labor camp and
the other will be murdered William
Sameer second assailant moose missed my
raccoon can you
buzzer I think you’ve uses Kovac is if
that’s not cool enough Sophie must
decide which one will live and which
will die nice meeting me Christa Valen
calm bitch gun
all these shakes abided Oliver
devastated beyond belief the mother
decides to save Yan believing he’ll have
a better shot at survival than Ava what
makes this even more tragic is that we
never learn the fate of Sophie son as
any loving mother or father can imagine

character until her dying day when the
train arrived at Auschwitz the Germans
