What is the greatest movie scene of all-time?
That simple.
Albert Finney
Miller's Crossing
The scene where he turned tables during the mob hit.
The Classic among mere mortal classics.

My favorite scene in a movie is from Cast Away.
Tom Hanks had finally got off the island and is rowing his raft at night when a whales eye pops up and looks at him. I dont know why I love it so much, but it was brilliant in randomly wow kinda way.

The scene where Optimus Prime mashes through the decepticons in cab/truck form, jumps in the air, transforms and starts blasting the remaining standing decepticons left,right and center with his gun -right before his final showdown with Megatron in 'Transformer:The Movie'.

God, that was great.
The Question

There are so many great ones. The final fight in King Kong, the final lightsaber duel in Return of the Jedi, and so many others. But personally, I'll always love the scene in Superman: The Movie, when Superman finds Lois dead, and just screams as he shoots of into the sky. That was brilliant. Although, from what I understand, that scene was supposed o be at the end of Superman two, but the studio altered the two movies slightly.

The scene from Return Of The Jedi where Vader makes a threat to turn Liea to the Dark side and Luke goes crazy on him all the way nup to when he declares he is a Jedi like his father is my favorite scene in any film. Great shots, deep meaning, great music and action. Can't be touched.

Action: The Freeway scene in "Matrix Reloaded"
Comedy: Its a tie between Daffy Duck and Donald Duck having a piano duel in "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" and Batman(Adam West) trying to get rid of that bomb in "Batman the Movie"
Drama: The first time I saw Simba's dad get stampeded on in "The Lion King" was freakin' sad
Of course, those are just my opinion and, since I have not seen that many old movies in my life time, most of my choice are relatively recent.

My favorite scene would be from the Japanese Movie "Casshern".
From them moment where our hero walks out of a burning building (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/Dusk/Casshern01.jpg) with his girlfriend in his arm, up to the point he gets smacked into a building. It's like action heaven when he starts to take on the whole robot army (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/Dusk/Casshern02.jpg) all by himself.
He runs (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/Dusk/Casshern04.jpg) down the side of a building and catches a tank shell (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/Dusk/Casshern05.jpg) with his bare hands. He starts slicing robots in half, also with his hands. And then he gets hold of one robot's grapple (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/Dusk/Casshern06.jpg) and simply starts spinning around (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v385/Dusk/Casshern07.jpg), knocking hundred other robots away.
It's just a stunning action sequence.

No one has said Anikan vs. Obi-Wan yet? Well, now someone has. That fight, intercut with Yoda and Palpatine, is just mind-blowing. You know a movie moment is great when it's preceded by 28 years of hype and, not only delivers, but exceeds expectations.
That being said, there are some others:
Batman's escape from Arkham in Begins.
The crazy double-take at the end of The Sting (best twist ending ever.)
The Ferris wheel scene with Orson Welles in The Third Man.
The T-Rex attack in Jurassic Park.
The Death Star run in Star Wars.
Yoda moves the X-Wing in Empire (Mark Hamill's shock just looks so real.)
Luke vs. Vader in Jedi.
The whole beginning of Ghost in the Shell, right through the opening credits (never have I been so quickly and completely sucked into a fictional world.)
Marty gets sent Back to the Future in -- well, you know.
A minute later, Marty comes tearing around the corner, running up to a horrified Doc Brown, announcing he's back...back from the future (the end of BTTF Part Two.)
The finale of the Incredibles versus the Omnidroid -- the X-Men and F4 films only wish they could create a superhero moment that perfect.
Although, X-2 comes close with the line, "You picked the wrong house, Bub!" and the rampage that follows.-- END!

The only good part of the fight was the music. Obi Wan and Qui Gonn vs Maul was better. But the best lightsaber fight is Luke and Vader in ESB.

These are in no particular order.
1. Starman- After he tells Jenny Hayden his final farewell, he walks towards the motherships beam with the beautiful sorrowful music playing and turns around one final time.
2. Batman Begins- The Arkham escape and the scene after he takes out the thugs on the dock. You know the one scene where he's standing on a building high above Gotham.
3. Jurassic Park- The T-Rex appearing for the first time sent chills down my spine.
4. Terminator 2- The end where the T-800 is being lowered down into the molten steel. Also; the Cyberdene moment where he blows away all of the cop cars. :up:
5. Forrest Gump- Where him and Jenny reunite for the first time in front of the Lincoln Memorial in the water. Such a beautiful scene. Definitely brought a tear to my eye.
6. Spider-Man- Spidey's final swing definitely brings a smile to my face.
7. Constantine- Granted it's not exactly faithful to the graphic novels; however, this scene for me is great and shows Constantine's no fear attitude for going into Hell. When he makes his first trip to Hell and after he opens his eyes, he turns around and all you hear is silence, the wind blowing, and fire everywhere as he turns around and walks down the path with demons staring at him.
8. X-Men: United- Cyclops breaking down in Wolverine's arms after Jean dies.
9. Return of the King- Sam carrying Frodo up the mountain after the emotional quote "I can't carry it for you. But I can carry you!"
10. Matrix Reloaded- Freeway Chase was just amazing. Words simply can't describe how beautifully filmed that was.
11. Superman- The first shirt rip as he goes to save Lois and stop the helicopter from crashing.
12. American History X- When the inmate begins to make Derek laugh with his jokes and Derek changes his ways.
13. The Crow- The first time you see Eric Draven standing in front of the broken window ledge and the lightning flashes to show the make-up.

My favorite scene is The ending to the Long Good Friday:
Harold think all the problems are over and he is proud on himself because he humiliated the yankees. He stands on the sidewalk waiting for his car, the car arrives and the moment he gets in the car starts to drive real fast, he gets kicked back in his seat and looks at the seat next to him. His wife isn't sitting there. ''Ey, hold on. Where's Victoria?'' he says. The eyes of the driver look at him in the mirror. The music kicks in. (http://www.epdlp.com/bso.php?id=738) Harold looks out of the window and sees how his wife is being held in another car, she screams his name. Back in Harold's car, Pierce Brosnan (http://img229.imageshack.us/img229/2072/backseat5if.jpg) gets out from behind the front seat, with a gun. Harold looks shocked. Then we see the best performance of the movie; Bob Hoskins in a big close up slowly realizing that he is in big ****ing trouble and he is not gonna get out of it alive.
Brilliant scene and one of the best endings ever.

I know this isn't one scene, but in Serenity from the point that Wash is impalled to the blast doors opening to reveal River. Just great stuff, the begining sets up that maybe everybody won't get out alive and things just keep getting worse and worse for the crew, one of the only times I've ever felt scared for the heroes in a movie.
As for real "scenes" (many of my favorite have been listed, but these are the ones haven't yet);
- The torture and FREEEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOM! scene in Braveheart
- The San Francisco chase in the Rock
- The 4 and 1/2 minute unbroken shot revealing the cast in Serenity
- Bullseye vs. Elektra in Daredevil, just loved that it was totally ripped straight from the comic pages "And for my next trick...."

I still vote for the Incredibles, but I see your point on this one. I don't think Kurt was ever even that cool in the comics!
And Crazy Monkey, the best twist ending is 2 killers in Scream.
You poor, poor child of modern cinema. Like the man said,
"Oh no, you will find it is you who are mistaken... About a great...many...things!" :p
Batman Begins- "Gordon, there's no one left to send in." Then the tumbler roars by with the theme playing and lands in front of Gordon.
Agreed, a great Begins moment. I remember one screening I attended, the crowd was a particularly loud, unruly gaggle of teens decked out in hip-hop attire. I pre-judged them and assumed they'd get bored with the film and eventually ruin the experience. In fact, the first screen full of bats shut them up quickly and they sat quietly enthralled for most of the film.
My point is, when the scene mentioned above played, they all let out an involuntary cheer, some even kind of popping up from their seats with their fists raised in triumph! Now, a theatre full of fanboys I would expect that from, but from that crew...it was then that I was convinced Nolen/Goyer had done it right.
Sorry, I know my little anecdote is off-topic. I just felt compelled to share it!

Back on topic...
Both Spider-flicks are filled with great moments. I love the upside-down kiss (iconic imagery!), Doc Ock's grisly 'awakening' (gotta love a filmmaker with the balls to do an homage to himself!), Peter's spider powers coming back at the coffee shop (best use of spider sense!), and MJ's "Go get 'em, Tiger." (Now, that made me weep.)
Somebody's got to mention --
"KAAAAAHN!!!"
Creole kid, I havn't seen Miller's Crossing, but can it be more badass than Terrence Stamp in The Limey? He goes to that packing house, and the guys just mercilessly beat the tar out of him, this poor old guy, and drag him outside, leaving him in a heap. But dude, the look in his eye as he pulls himself up! He just turns around, draws his gun, and goes right back in there! You don't see the carnage, you just hear it, and only one of the goons makes it out alive! As he runs in terror from this 'old man,' Terrence belts out,
"Tell your boss I'm coming for him! Tell him, I'm ****ing coming for him!!"
Outstanding. And totally badass.

I've heard good things about "The Limey". So I'll try to check it out soon. But the scene you described sounds seems the writer/director just simply combined the Albert Finney scene and Bruce Willis in "Pulp Fiction".

Spidey chasing uncle ben's killer and web slinging for the first time. best webswinging scene to date, so elegant yet so ugly and you are just cheering him on to go, like watching your child walk for the first time, truelly blissful.
The last samurai when the chief of the samurai dies and the japanese army men on the oposing side all bow down to him, man i cried like a baby when i saw this scene, truelly powerful moving stuff
arnie dying in terminator 2, until my friends ruined it, that thumbs up scene was one of the most touching parts of cinema and always used to get the tear ducts flowing.

Action
Every dogfight in Top Gun, especially the one against Maveric/goose and Jester, and the last Dogfight
Armour of God, jackie chan vs those three black ladies
Jackie chan's first strike, jackie fighting in the yellow and black jumpsuit and he eventually ends up using a ladder as a weapon, truelly in my eyes his best work to date.
CTHD, lee mu bei owning the girl with a stick while she waves the green destiny, zhang ziyi vs michelle yeoh, watching michelle get frustrated knowing she's actually better than the girl but she wields a better weapon
ock vs spidey on the side of the building in spidey 2, spidey goes nuts and for about 10 seconds, lays down the gospel according to PARKER on octavius while dragging him off a building and kicking his ass on the way down.
gemma vs jubei at the end of ninja scroll.
supes vs the kyptonians in superman 2, pound for pound the best fight scene in a superhero related film.
end swinging scene of spidey one, best visual scene of spidey swinging.

van damme vs dolph lundren in universal soldier, the build up to it is immense and everyone wanted to see it go down, it didn't disappoint.

The scene where Optimus Prime mashes through the decepticons in cab/truck form, jumps in the air, transforms and starts blasting the remaining standing decepticons left,right and center with his gun -right before his final showdown with Megatron in 'Transformer:The Movie'.
i second that!!
also the scene at the beginning of serenity when we see the ship for the first time, that holds for 4 and a half minutes without cutting. felt great seeing the ship and characters again, and the music was spot on.
also the end of the truman show.

San invades Iron Town and the Great Spirit's rampage, both in Princess Mononoke.
Chihiro eats the enchanted rice cakes that force the tears out of her, and Haku remembers who he is, both from Spirited Away (and both choke me up every time.)
OK, we all agree on Arkham. But what about the duel on the glacier in Begins?! "You haven't beaten me. You've sacrificed sure footing for a killing stroke." <Crack!>
Batman kicks a tooth out of Joker's smile, also in MotP.
Both the train wreck and Kimble's relentless march through the entire finale of the Fugitive ("You missed your stop.")
The Nameless Samurai comes back to town with "a dead man's sword," and revenge in his eyes, in Yojimbo.
Spock says good-bye to Kirk as he dies in the end of Wrath of Kahn.
The heist all comes together in Ocean's Eleven (remake.)
George McFly takes out Biff in one punch in BTTF.
The toys turn the tables on Sid in Toy Story.
Bud frantically tries to revive Lindsey in The Abyss.

The Chairman
01-14-2006, 02:17 PM
Here is my complete ranking for the greatest film scenes of all time (well, my favorites anyway).
1. True Romance - realizing his time is running out and his fate awaits him, Cliff Worley (Dennis Hoppers) enlightens crime boss Vincent Cicotti (Christopher Walken) about the origins of Sicilains. What he says exactly is too offensive to go into detail about, and, frankly's it's not even worth it, because, you have to see it to believe it. Expertly written, shot and edited, it is a scene that will stay with you forever.
2. Reservoir Dogs - angered that he's not getting answers, the ruthless Mr. Blonde (Michael Madsen) taunts hostage Officer Marvin Nash (Kirk Baltz) by performing a little impromptu dance to Steeler Wheels' "Stuck In The Middle With You", then preceeds to cut off his ear. The word "badass" is redefined forever.
3. Almost Famous - worn out from a long tour, the members of the struggling rock band Stillwater, along with several groupies and young journalist William Miller (Patrick Fugit), hit their tour bus for another gig. There is tension brewing in the band because of their loose cannon lead guitarist Russell Hammond (Billy Crudup). As they travel along, Elton John's "Tiny Dancer" comes on the radio. For one moment, the tension is lifted, as one by one, everyone joins in for a festive singalong. The scene is so ethereal and unforgettable that you find yourself singing along. This scene alone makes Almost Famous the masterpiece that it is.
4. Wayne's World - ready for a hard night of partying, Wayne Campbell (Mike Myers), Garth Algar (Dana Carvey) and few buds from Aurora, Illinois hop into the "Mirthmobile". Wayne picks up a cassette, utters the immortal words "A little "Bohemian Rhapsody, gentleman?", pops the tape in the deck, and they rock out to the greatest song in rock history. Freddie Mercury would be proud.
5. North By Northwest - after a day of being chased by global criminals, kidnapped and framed for both drunk driving and murder, Roger Thornhill (Cary Grant) has been left stranded in a cornfield in the middle of nowhere. All of a sudden, a low flying cropduster swoops down to gun down Thornhill. With Bernhard Herman's score blaring in the background, Thornhill manages to elude the plane and barely escape with his life. Hitchcock's shining moment.
6. Bullit - the ultimate cinema badass, Steve McQueen, in all his glory. McQueen did most of the stunt driving in this death defying car chase from the 1968 cop classic. Quite simply the greatest car chase in film history, Detective Frank Bullit (McQueen) is led through the streets of San Francisco in a harrowing pursuit of a group of assassins who have put a key witness in an important trial in critical condition. Filled with breathtaking scenery, exciting action and a bangup finale only McQueen can deliver, this truly is cinema at its finest. A classic.
7. A Few Good Men - sorry, but I can't leave a Nicholson scene off this lest. As the case of two marines being accused murder begins to unravel, Naval attorney Daniel Kaffee (Tom Cruise) puts the pressure on Colonel Nathan Jessup (Jack Nicholson) to confess to his lies concerning the case. The music swells, anger is building up in their eyes, their throats tighten, sweat profusely shooting out from both of them. Fed up, Kafee demands, "I want the truth", to which Jessup replies firmly "You can't handle the truth!" A scene that makes the viewer's blood run cold.
8. The Omen - the greatest scene ever in a horror film. U.N. Ambasador Robert Thorne (Gregory Peck) refuses to murder his son, despite growing evidence that he is indeed the spawn of Satan. Disgusted by this gesture, Keith Jennings (David Warner), a photographer who has been working with Thorn in investigating several mysterious deaths in Thorne's inner circle, has decided to take matters into his own hands. As he bends down to pick up the seven knives that can kill the child, a truck slowly lurches towards Jennings, and hits a bump. A sheet of a plate gas slides off the back, and travels straight through Jennings' neck, completely separating his head from the rest of his body. A truly terrifying moment.
9. Pyscho - after a long day of eluding the law for stealing from her boss, fugitive Marion Crane (Janet Leigh) checks into the quiet Bates Motel, run by its seemingly harmless owner, Norman Bates (Anthony Perkins). Marion goes to her room to take a shower. As she lathers up, a mysterious figure enters the bathroom, knife in hand. The music (once again by the great Bernard Herman) builds up. The figure opens the curtain, and Marion lets out a blood curdling scream as the figure repeatedly stabs her. Hitchcock only had one better moment (see scene five).
10. Scarface - the firefight. 'Nuff said.

The Long Good Friday
The ending. Perhaps the best ending ever. Marvelous acting from Bob Hoskins who doesn't need words to tell us everything his character has experienced throughout the movie. The music contributes to this.
Goodfellas
Tommy and Jimmy beat up Billy Batts. A truly gruesome beating. They load him in the trunk of their car and have dinner with tommy's mom. Catherine Scorscese manages to steal the show from three acting legends.
One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
McMurphy finds out Chief isn't dumb and deaf. Great acting and one of the finest moments in a film that is filled with brilliant scenes. ''Goddamn! You fooled them Chief! You fooled them all!''
Pulp Fiction
Mia snorts heroine and overdoses. Vincent goes ape**** and drives to the house of Lance, his dealer. There they need to inject adrenaline in her hart. ''That was trippy''
Get Carter
Carter watches a porn movie and recognizes his brother's daughter as one of the actresses. Subtly Caine turns from laid back to shocked and upset. Proves that Carter is so much more than just a badass.
The Godfather
The first scene. ''I believe in America.'' Sets the tone for the rest of the film. Brando makes a great first impression.

The look on Jack's face when the Chief puts the pillow against his face, the music,the movements,the timing,the acting,mind-boggling.Then the Chief using the sink to break out of the institution...Best.Scene.Ever.
Second best,Mozart's rotting corpse thrown into the dumps,with the Requiem Lacrimosa playing in the background,then at the triumphant climax switches to Salieri laughing to the priest's dismay.Almost cried like a baby.
There's just something about Milos's movies I can't put my finger on...
And of course,last,but not least,Forrrest Gump.Virtually every scene from this movie is worth mentioning,from unwillingly rescuing his entire plutoon,to his partnership with Lt. Dan,from the storm on the shrimp boat,to Jenny's death,from the ping-pong carrier,to the "short run" he decided to take,from his teenage years,to the final scene with the feather,Zemeckis's work ranks right up there with Forman's.It has Willliam Faulkner written all over it.Brilliant.:) :up:

The comparing of scars scene from Jaws, I love how it shifted gears when Quint told about U.S.S. Indianapolis.
Hooper: You were on the Indianapolis?
Brody: What happened?
Quint: Japanese submarine slammed two torpedoes into her side, Chief. We was comin' back from the island of Tinian to Leyte. We'd just delivered the bomb. The Hiroshima bomb. Eleven hundred men went into the water. Vessel went down in 12 minutes. Didn't see the first shark for about a half-hour. Tiger. 13-footer. You know how you know that in the water, Chief? You can tell by lookin' from the dorsal to the tail. What we didn't know, was that our bomb mission was so secret, no distress signal had been sent. They didn't even list us overdue for a week. Very first light, Chief, sharks come cruisin' by, so we formed ourselves into tight groups. It was sorta like you see in the calendars, you know the infantry squares in the old calendars like the Battle of Waterloo and the idea was the shark come to the nearest man, that man he starts poundin' and hollerin' and sometimes that shark he go away... but sometimes he wouldn't go away. Sometimes that shark looks right at ya. Right into your eyes. And the thing about a shark is he's got lifeless eyes. Black eyes. Like a doll's eyes. When he comes at ya, he doesn't even seem to be livin'... 'til he bites ya, and those black eyes roll over white and then... ah then you hear that terrible high-pitched screamin'. The ocean turns red, and despite all your poundin' and your hollerin' those sharks come in and... they rip you to pieces. You know by the end of that first dawn, lost a hundred men. I don't know how many sharks there were, maybe a thousand. I do know how many men, they averaged six an hour. Thursday mornin', Chief, I bumped into a friend of mine, Herbie Robinson from Cleveland. Baseball player. Boson's mate. I thought he was asleep. I reached over to wake him up. He bobbed up, down in the water, he was like a kinda top. Upended. Well, he'd been bitten in half below the waist. At noon on the fifth day, a Lockheed Ventura swung in low and he spotted us, a young pilot, lot younger than Mr. Hooper here, anyway he spotted us and a few hours later a big ol' fat PBY come down and started to pick us up. You know that was the time I was most frightened. Waitin' for my turn. I'll never put on a lifejacket again. So, eleven hundred men went into the water. 316 men come out, the sharks took the rest, June the 29th, 1945. Anyway, we delivered the bomb.

The scene at the end of The Rock when Goodspeed (cage) is holding up the green flares, signalling that the threat has been neutralized and the planes are flying in about to bomb Alcatraz. Very iconic.

Speaking of limp bodies being flung, Brad Pitt getting hit by a car in "Meet Joe Black" was excellent.

Crash, when Matt Dillan saves Thandie Newton from the exploding car is just one of the best scenes from Crash.
Also, Peter Jackson's King Kong finale.
I think the best scene from crash is when the hispanic guy thinks the muslim has just shot his daughter

Final scene in Scarface
"You wanna **** with me? Okay. You wanna play rough? Okay. Say hello to my little friend!"
The last 10 - 15 minutes of Scarface are some of the finest moments in cinematic history.

The end of Robocop when Robocop (Peter Weller) is coming in for the kill on Clarence Boddicker (Kurtwood Smith, AKA: the dad from That 70s Show), and Clarence starts freaking out.
"h-hey... now wait a second... now wait a minute, you're taking this kinda personal, aren't you? Come on now, you're making me nervous! Come one, youc an't do this! Don't mess around! Hey, hey! Hey man, now don't get cute!"

Alot of great ones already said...there are a few obscure ones I love:
Last Man Standing: the scene where Smith goes to "talk to" the men about the damage to his car.
Thunderheart: The final scene at the Stronghold. "This land is not for sale!!!"
X-Men: Wolverine popping his claws for the first time in the Bar
Flash Gordon: From the moment that lady says "What do you mean....Flash Gordon approaching?" to the end of the movie....
Punisher: Harry Heck singing his song to Frank in the diner.

11. "Schindler's List"- The girl in red dress death scene- Greatest. Death scene. Ever.
12. "2001:..."- "Daisy, Daisy..."
13. "Ferris Bueller's Day Off"- The race to beat his sister and his parents
14. Star Wars- The Hyper-Space scene
15. Goldfinger- "No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!"
It's probably been mentioned already, but a great scene was when that guy with the sword is coming at Indiana Jones and it looks like there's gonna be a big fight scene then Indy just shoots him. Classic.:up:

Bruce Lee in Enter the Dragon when he kills the guy that killed his sister during the tournament.
I can't help but mention these 2 again but Batman's escape from Arkham in Batman Begins, also in Rambo when Rambo slowly grips the mic after he's tortured by his captures and saids "Murdock...i'm coming to get you!"
