Greatest Scene

opening battle scene in Gladiator is awesome and the part were Crowe goes Roma Victor gives me shivers like I was just there in the midst of the battle with him killing those barbaric Germans lol

Its "Roma Vita!" that he shouts, which is also a huge mistake as it means "Rome has been conquered!" That whole scene is full of errors, from the arrows on the ground infront of the barbarians before the Romans have started firing them to the extras laughing as the pretend to hit each other in the wide shots of the battle, seriously watch the bottom of the screen in some parts .

Best scene ever? For me its from Raiders of the Lost Ark, Indy chases the truck on horseback, gets on it, takes over it, gets rid of all the remaining Nazis bar one who batters him , chucks him out the window, he gets dragged behind the truck before climbing back in , chucking said Nazi out himself and then running him over with the truck. All while John Williams' magnificent theme tune is blaring, its the reason we watch movies tbh

Close encounters of a third kind when the mothership came up over the mountain.

I'm going to go with one from my childhood which I adored as a kid and still try to catch when I see it on today.



The scene was brilliantly done and means a lot to me for nostalgic reasons.

Heres a few i love. Im sure i have loads more but these are the first few that come to mind. There are spoilers in some (especially first 2)

A Time to Kill. Back when Matthew McConaughey acted in decent movies.



Usual Suspects



True Romance



Return of the King ( an unexpected quiet moment in the battle)



300

I have loads of favourites. Here's one of them.

Hard one this, theres scenes that I personally love seeing, but not be to everyones taste.


Val kilmer facing off against michael biehn in tombstone

Arnie lowering himself into the pit in T2

Sly killing everything in rambo 4

The lobby scene in the matrix

Too many to right down to be fair

I love that shootout in heat though.

Not sure about these being the geatest scenes of all time but they're my favourites.

In Terminator 2 when Arnie leaves the bar clad in biker gear and 'Bad to the Bone' playing in the background.

In Friday Night Lights, the last drive and when Charlie puts the championship ring on Don's finger. Almost brings me to tears each time.

Collateral - The 'Fever' scene.

Heat - That shootout.

Saving Private Ryan - When Reiban shoots out the flak gun & when Jackson is recieting prayers whilst shooting troops with his rifle.

Taken - Most of the fight scenes.

The Bourne Ultimatium - The scene in Victoria Station guiding the reporter along. Just a few scenes out of probably one of my favourite movie trilogies.

We Were Soldiers - When Moore's troops board the helicopters and "Lay me down(Not sure of song)" by Joesph Kilna McKenzie is playing. Great stuff.

Just a few there.

Here's a few more



Miller's crossing is one of the best works of the Coen brothers and to me, it is the best gangster movie ever. The scene in the woods where Turturro begs Byrne for his life and the scene where Bryne says that he has no heart and shoots turturro are amazing.
