Favorite Scene in a Super Hero Movie

Batman Begins - Flass interrogation
V for Vendetta - V vs Creedy and his men
X-Men 2 - The entire sequence at Alkali Lake
Hellboy - Project Ragna Rok
 
Probably the clock tower / train fight in Spider-Man 2.

The attack on the school was pretty sweet in X2, though... same with the airplane scene in Superman Returns.

I have to second the train fight...the whole aftermath of that on the train made me cry ...super heroes make me all teary eyed!
 
Ehh... that was a little too sappy for me. I'm all for insightful, meaningful moments in a superhero film, but throwing kids on there makes it a little too sugary-sweet.

Spider-Man 2 probably tops the list of my favorite superhero movies, that's for sure. I walked out of that one with the biggest, dopiest grin on my face, I loved it! I wasn't even that happy coming out of X2 :p
 
Now that is sappy ;)

Spiderman 2 was definitely good. Too good...
 
Nightcrawler's attack on the White House was WAY better than it had any right to be, too.

I don't know, most every superhero movie has a mind-blowing scene that sticks in your brain. :wow:
 
top ones would be

1. Superman Returns - Plane
2. X2 - Nightcrawler assault
3. Spider-Man 2 - Train Sequence
4. X2 - Mansion Attack
5. X3 - Wolverine killing Jean
 
I forgot to list Ra's Al Ghul in Wayne Manor in Batman Begins. Great dialouge and acting, probably my fav. scene from the entire movie.
 
I've several:

Batman Begins: The 1st scene where Ra's is training Bruce - a la - 'You know how to fight six men; we can teach you to engage six hundred.' [That entire sequence was well done]

The last conversation between Gordon and Batman:

Det: I never said thank you.
Batman: . . .and you'll never have to. *jumps off of building*

^That's my favorite ending to a superhero film.

Superman Returns: The entire plane sequence, esp. when Supes is flying to the head of the aircraft to stop it.

- AICN had a very interesting take on that scene, and it kind of added another dimension to it. The review asked the reader to imagine being Bruce Wayne or another hero within that universe watching Superman physically will the plane to safety. I know it's a bit much, but I liked the thought of it.

X2: The verbal exchange between Stryker and Senator Kelly(Mystique) where Logan's engineer explains that he had been running black-op missions while Kelly was sucking on his mama's teat at woodstock.

Spider-Man: I like the 'dual fates' shot of Spider-man's eyes when he had to choose between saving MJ and/or the young hostages.

V for Vendetta: The first time V and Evey meet was a magnetic interaction for me; I didn't like the alterations / deviations from the written material, but I loved Hugo Weaving's performance.

Superman The Movie: The Jonathan Kent 'you're here for a reason speech.'

also Perry White's: "Now look. The Post: "It Flies." The News: "Look, Ma, No Wires." The Times: "Blue Bomb Buzzes Metropolis." The Planet. We're sitting on top of the story of the century here! I want the name of this flying whatchamacallit to go with the Daily Planet like bacon and eggs, franks and beans, death and taxes, politics and corruption."
 
Oh

5. The not too distant future : X-men
You know the scenes where we get a glimpse of what a mutant really is, that was just really cool

4. Peter learning his new abilities : Spider-man
That scene is just amazing smamazing! Its really fun and you never want it to end

3. Final Showdown : Batman Returns
I absolutely love the Catwoman/Peinguin/Max Shrek/Batman showdown at the end, it just keeps you at the edge of your seat...It was sad when Catwaman died, and even Peinguin for that matter

2. The Hulk : Hulk vs. Army
These scenes are just too amazing...WOW!! Everything from the tanks to the golden gate bridge, I love the camera direction, (I actually thought the split screen thing was cool), and the score is beautiful.

1. Final Swing : Spider-man
Perfect way to end a movie, back for 2002 that was just amazing, esp if you watched it at a movie theater. It was so beautiful...I thought it was amazing having the environment/Spidey action. The camera shots of the city were mind blowing, Spidey's moves were majestic and at the end you only wanted to see more
 
1. X2 - Nightcrawler's attack on the White House
2. Batman Begins - escaping The Narrows on the rooftops

I'm thankful somebody finally praises this movie...I mean it was flawed but it just gets so much bashing...
 
My TOP5:

1. Talk scene between Batman and Gordon (also introducing of Joker's card) - Batman Begins.

2. Trane sequence - Spider-man 2

3. Nightcrawler's attack - X-Men 2

4. Plane Sequence - Superman Returns

5. Car chase - Batman Begins
 
Superman. The death of Lois. Just because you know she's not supposed to die and it's so shocking when she does. You're pretty much left wondering "What now?" and we get to see Superman more vulnerable than ever. Still get chills when he starts to cry and just screams and goes flying off. Brings a smile to my face when this guy is so determined to bring her back that he actually turns back time. Real heart warmer. :up:

Also Batman Begins' "I'm Batman" followed by a headbutt and his new theme playing for the first time. In fact just about every time his theme played it was an awesome moment. Like the chase where he says "Hold on" and everything just kicks in.

Wolverine's introduction in X-men. Just...badass. Also any scene with Sabretooth for me. :D

Juggernaut's introduction in X3. Just hearing Pyro read off his bio like that and to see him locked behind bars like some kind of...unstoppable animal...Good stuff. :up:

Hellboy vs Samael in the train station.

Hellboy vs the army of Samael's. Liz's intervention was just sweet. I like how she was almost crying because he was getting hurt.

Constantine. Satan. Enough said. :up:

Superman Returns. Lifting. A f**king. Island! I was brought right back to when he turned back time. Just an amazing feat. Also when Lois and her family was left to sink in a boat. I'm a little claustrophobic so that was heart wrenching to me. Stopped holding my breath once I saw those red boots.

Magneto's escape.

The entire train scene with Magneto in X-men. "My dear boy. Whoever said I wanted you?".
