2000:
Gladiator - The Last Fight until the Ending
[YT]Qaki5WSPNng[/YT]
No need to explain why.
2001:
Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - The Opening Scene
This scene begins the 8 part story with a HUGE fan base.
2002:
Spider-Man - Final Swing
[YT]8dNgF-y7JTA[/YT]
Probable one of the most Heroic scenes in film history. This sequence gives us a "realistic" look at the classic web slinging.
2003:
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King
[YT]O9VjfpNzW_w[/YT]
This scene had been hyped about for three years and if you had just scene the other two films, for ten hours and my God it does NOT disappoint.
2004:
Troy - The Sacking of Troy
[YT]L5GDfRFsGs0[/YT]
One of the most recounted "events" in history brought to film.
2005:
Revenge of the Sith - Final Duels
[YT]D8hU8OlyRvU[/YT]
[YT]XLsUex17YKc[/YT]
Although watching it now might be different think of the very first time you watched this. For thirty years, this film was hyped and once it started playing, the entire time I was thinking of this fight and the entire film just keeps pumping you up for it, and when the battle begins you find yourself on the edge of your seat waiting to see what finally happens and the scene does not disappoint as it goes on for a good 25 minutes and the entire time you are hooked to the screen. When this fight scene was over I was more than satisfied. I was like this ->
(Although if you watch it again it drags on and it screams choreography to you, the first time you watched it was memorable, guaranteed)
Honourable Mention:
Batman Begins - Suit Up
[YT]Wg6rI7Hgyhw[/YT]
The Batman Suit-Up of the decade.
2006:
Casino Royale - Bond's Intro
[YT]eR8H_1bZqBE[/YT]
This scene embarks us on the story of Bond's Return and Beginings
Honourable Mention Goes to Superman Returns - Plane Rescue
[YT]IexEzk6TTSY[/YT]
This scene is the pinnacle of Super-Hero scenes. Probably the only Superman scene in a Movie within a thirty year Gap.
2007:
Transformers - Optimus Prime's Transformation
[YT]2tBhnv0kdqI[/YT]
Some say this scene was anticipated for over two decades. The visuals were astounding and the classic transformation audio was inserted and the first time he speaks the audience goes "OPTIMUS PRIME!!!!"
Honourable Mention: The Simpsons Movie Intro
[YT]yZSR66HlYwA[/YT]
The intro to a movie twenty years in the making and a movie based off of the longest lasting episodic TV-Show
2008:
The Dark Knight - Interrogation Scene:
[YT]rIj2uL2f1rE[/YT]
A scene FILLED with symbolism of Good Vs Evil, Regulation Vs Anarchy, Order Vs Chaos and a scene with some of the best acting in years.
Honourable Mentions
The Dark Knight - Batman Vs. Two-Face
[YT]TkK39ADFQSM[/YT]
One of the most emotionally grabbing scenes since the climax of the Lord of the Rings and Gladiator
Iron Man - Suit Up
[YT]aaokZWJ1gBM[/YT]
Probably the BEST superhero Suit-Up ever.
2009:
Avatar - The Avatars First Land
[YT]O62roi96BFI[/YT]
The animation is an incredible leap in movie making history.
And I have a feeling that Holmes's intro in Sherlock Holmes will be memorable.
