Schindler's list?
No?

I would've loved in Titanic, would've made the whole sitting worth it. In fact, why not just replace all conversation?

Coincidently, I noticed Wilhelm's scream in King Kong before...

When King Kong falls from the building.
not at this part though haha :)
Some guy almost gets stepped on my a brontosaurus and falls.
For some reason, sound guys seem to enjoy using the Wilhelm when someone is falling. A bit ironic since its origin is a guy getting pulled underwater by a crocodile...
yep you got it! I also seem to be the only one in my family who knows about Wilhelm's scream, although I guess if you don't know what it is, it's kind of hard to recognise the same few seconds of audio which is the same in almost every film.

Or how about Toy Story when Buzz falls out the window...
That already has the scream in it. Watch the video in the OP.

OT: I think that you're looking for this video:


"Fly, you fools...Aaaiiiiigghhh".

Harry Potter, when Hagrid tells Harry he's a wizard; Luke, when Vader tells him he's his dad; When they see the tiger for the first time in The Hangover and - this one is a video game one - when Sgt Johnson get zapped by Guilty Spark. Sorry that last one had to go in there even if it's out of place

You know those scenes where the main protagonist screams up at the sky in sadness or anger, it would be inappropriate (But hilarious) to insert a wilhelm scream in at that moment. Or, failing the wilhelm scream, you can always utilize this:

Ha! So there's a name for that kind of scream? It does seem highly overused, but to the purpose of this thread, when Harry finally kills Voldemort: "AAAaaaaiieeeeeeeeeeeeee!"
When snape finally kills Dumbledore

Since they make so much use of it in the Star Wars film...they should have put it in when Vadar throws Sideous off the edge in the Return of the Jedi

When Mufasa dies in The Lion King.

Yeah, I'm heartless.
Yeah, I've pretty much read the whole thread and thought every suggestion would be funny. But this is the sad exception, I can't think of any way this wouldn't be inappropriate.

Now excuse me for a sec, I have to wipe off some tears, since I watched that scene again.

Glad I could be of service!

During a sex scene. Yeah, that would be awkward.
I think you took everyone's ideas, mine included.
I'm surprised I got to the punch first. I'm laughing my ass off just thinking about it.
You and me both. When I saw the title, I thought 'during sex' and laughed myself.
Must be some good sex if your partner let's out a scream like that.
