Greatest Scene Ever

da creole kid · 01-08-2006, 12:27 AM

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.

The Chairman · 01-08-2006, 12:33 AM

I like the scene at the end of It's A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World when they're all on the fire engine ladder. That was hilarious.

Poetic Chaos · 01-08-2006, 12:43 AM

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.

Dark Donnie · 01-08-2006, 11:22 AM

The Mad World scene in Donnie Darko is really good

Gamma Ray · 01-08-2006, 11:33 AM

This may just be the excitement from the movie talking, but the greatest scene for me was in Kong 2005 when Kong fell off the ESB.

Golgo-13 · 01-08-2006, 01:00 PM

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'.

PuMpKiN EsCoBaR · 01-08-2006, 01:03 PM

Star Wars Episode II - Yoda and Count Dooku, battling using their force powers and the lightsaber fight that ensued. i was like

the whole time

God, that was great.

The Question · 01-08-2006, 01:26 PM

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.

Ending to The Long Good Friday

Mister J · 01-08-2006, 01:49 PM

Batman's descent from the top of the stairs in Arkham in Batman Begins. I didn't know if we'd ever get a true Batman movie and when we got it, that scene was just total geekgasm for me.

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.

Sabretooth · 01-08-2006, 03:01 PM

One of the greatest scenes of all time is in Forrest Gump when he sees his son for the first time,and then he asks if the boy's smart. Just a beautiful scene.

And the ending scene to SM1 and the train fight in SM2 were great too

Landis-Wolf · 01-08-2006, 03:09 PM

The transformation scene in An American Werewolf In London.
I was just speachless watching that for the first time

<(o_o)> · 01-08-2006, 04:12 PM

Spidey's final swing through the city at the end of Spider-Man 1 & 2.
Hulk's first transformation & destroying the lab.

nogap87 · 01-08-2006, 07:37 PM

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.
