I like Ghost In Shell 2's opening, it is very good. The movie itself as a whole, I don't like. No idea whats it about or whats going on. Too long as well.

The Alfred scenes in Batman & Robin were pretty damn good. And Order 66 in Revenge of the Sith as well.
 
The chase scene in New Moon.
 
- When Christain Bale saves that wee dog in Equilibrium.

- Nicholas Cage going crazy in the jail cell in Ghost Rider.

- The sky dive and car chase over the man arm bridge in Batman and Robin. (The Alfred and Bruce scenes in B&R didn't do much for me, but at least they had real acting in there)

- the plane rescue in Superman Returns, and when Superman gets his ass kicked at the end by the thugs.

- Oa training in Green Lantern

- When Clark re-reveals his secret ID to Lois in Superman IV, who admits she remembers, and when Lois visits Clark when he is sick and gives him that pep talk.

- The exam cheat scene in Spies like us.

- Grace Jones fighting off the villagers in Conan the Destroyer.

- Nic Cage makes his escape through the casino in Next.

- The underwater scene in Alien Resurection

- Jennifer Biel fights the vamps in the train station in Blade Trinity.

- The pre-credits sequence of Red Dragon.

- The two truckers hassle supergirl in supergirl.

- The Medusa scene in the original Clash of the Titans.

- The cyclops fighting the sabretooth tiger in Sinbad and the eye of the tiger(at least i think it was that one).

- Wolverine being chased by the helicopter in XMO:W

- The opening sequence to the 1st live action Scooby Doo.
 
Birth of Sandman scene in Spider-Man 3
 
-X-Men 3 Danger Room scene.
-The beginning of X-Men Origins: Wolverine with all the Weapon X members was cool. I would have liked a whole movie of that more than what we got.
-The Bruce Campbell scene in Spider-Man 3.
-I could watch pretty much any action segment of 300 for 15 or 20 minutes and be entertained but the movie overall wasn't good.
-Some of the battle scenes from Troy were good but it was boring overall.
-The live action Scooby-Doo made a joke about Scooby and Shaggy being stoners. I got a good laugh out of that.
 
I loved the forest scene in Transformers 2, when Optimus Prime takes on a bunch of Decepticons solo.
 
I liked the beginning of Saw 7 when it's revealed Dr Gordon is still alive.
 
Pretty much any scene with Malcolm McDowell's Loomis in RZ's Halloween. Ironically, the reason I like his portrayal of Loomis is pretty much the same reason I hate everything else about the movie. I hate the white trash hillbilly background they gave Michael, but I like that it actually made Loomis try to reason with him, instead of jumping right into "Okay, we need to kill this mother****er."

The scene where he had to shoot Michael while yelling for him to stop was my favorite in the whole movie.
 
Theres a scene with a cool delivered line in Harry Brown when Michael Caine character talking to the police officer when she knows he's been going abit Deathwish on the local yobs (he was a former soldier).

Frampton: It's not Northern Ireland Harry.
Harry Brown: No it's not. Those people were fighting for something; for a cause. To them out there, this is just entertainment.


This is an awsome part of the movie and basically, true.
The first half of the movie is pretty grounded (and good) the second half turns into a action Hollywood movie with lame plot twists and pantomime baddies.
 
All the scenes with Gary Oldman in "Leon" aka "The Professional."
Sorry, not a big Luc Besson fan:o
 
The plane scene in Superman returns. One of the best action scenes in any comic book movie.

Young Warren Worthington filing down his wings in X-3. (One of the only scenes that felt true to Singer's vision for the series)

The opening credits of X-Men Origins: Wolverine, going down through the wars was great and felt very Marvel. Game over for the rest of the movie, though. :(
 
I hated Hall Pass, but the scene in the Chinese Massage parlor was very funny. It was the only funny in a movie deprived of funny, integrity, and soul.
 
Zilla's first rampage in New York City in Godzilla 1998. While the film as a whole owes more to The Beast From 20,000 Fathoms, Jurassic Park, and Aliens than the original Godzilla, stripping the story of its haunting nuclear weapons subtext, this scene is pretty effective in conveying the monster's size and getting the audience to believe that the giant monster was really there. The shots of objects bouncing with Zilla's footfalls are very effective in creating suspense as you can feel the monster approaching without even seeing it.
 
In I Am Number Four, when John squares off with the monster in the hallway. I love it when he TK-slams all the lockers into it mid-gallop. Gets me every time.
 
1. Any of the scenes with Dr. Loveless in 'Wild Wild West' (Good villain, bad movie).
2. The scene in 'Nightmare on Elm Street: The Dream Child' when Mark, after having been pulled into one of his comic books in his dream, turns into the Phantom Prowler (A superhero of his own creation who looks sort of like a cross between the Punisher and Robocop), and pours about a dozen bullets into Freddy right before his own death.
3. V's "v"- heavy opening monologue and the Benny Hill- esque scene, "V for Vendetta."
4. 'Tales from the Crypt: Bordello of Blood,' when Rafe and Reverend Current waste all the vampires in the brothel with "Ballroom Blitz" playing in the background.
 
The argument Bruce and Dick have in Batman Forever in the Bat Cave about Dick wanting to kill Dent.

The freeway chase in TF3. And when Optimus takes out about 10 Decepticons including Shockwave near the end.

And I second the beginning to Wolverine Origins with the Weapon X team. If the whole movie was basically about Wolverine's time with Weapon X and all the "wetworks" missions they did, which Wolverine started to regret and feel guilty about, the movie would have been sooooo much better.
 
In movies I hate:

Joker's(2nd) introduction with the pencil trick in TDK. Well done.

Bruce remembering Betty's dream of childhood in AngHulk. Music sold it there.

In movies I dislike:

The Peter/Harry fight(1st one) in Spider-Man 3. Best action scene in the entire franchise, IMO.

Magneto lifting the Golden Gate Bridge in X3. Awesomely rendered by SFX.

That's all I can think of right now.
 
The first 10 minutes of Star Wars Episode 1, and the light saber fight.

When Maggie Smith laughs in Gosford Park.

The operating table scene in Spider-man 2 with Doc Ock. Its the only scene I liked, and that is only because it reminded me of Evil Dead 2.
