The Final Countdown is a good movie if you like sci-fi/drama.

an F-14 pilot is reporting the identity of a pair of enemy planes to Captain Yelland over the radio
Captain Yelland: Alert 1 this is Eagle 1, what've you got?

The Braylon Countdown

The countdown that takes place at Times Square before they drop the ball on New Years. This event is named after wide reciever Braylon Edwards because of his successful amount of drops on the football field. (Ironic enough, he plays for New York)

Everyone: 10, 9, 8, 7, 6...

Creeper Countdown

This is the waiting period (and everything associated with it) where weird dudes across the internet slobber all over their keyboards waiting for a celebrity to turn 18 so they can talk about how hot she is.
First it was the Olsen twins, then it was Emma Watson. Maisie Williams just turned 17, so her creeper countdown has already begun!

The Tiger Countdown

When you snort an Ambien, glob a heap of hand sanitzer into your palm, and proceed to fap your meat and cum before, either the Ambien makes you pass out, or the hand sanitizer evaporates.
I almost achieved the Tiger Countdown, bit chafed my taliwhacker instead.
