My list...*SPOILERS for LOTR: FOTR*

http://imdb.com/Photos/Ss/0167260/sam_poster.jpg

1. Sam and Frodo up the hills of Mount Doom. Frodo, exhausted and pained from this gruelling journey, is about to give up, but Sam crawls over to him and well...you know what happens next (....I can't carry it for you! But I can carry you!) in The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King
2. The haunting but strangely beautiful sequence at Club Silencio with Betty and Rita in Mulholland Drive
3. The gigantic extravanganza at the end, where Satine refreshes Christian's love for her with 'Come What May' in Moulin Rouge!
4. Bill Murray's whisper to Scarlett Johansson at the end of Lost in Translation
5. Boromir's death in The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
6. Jennifer Connelly's brief but powerful "I need to believe that something extraodinary is possible" speech in A Beautiful Mind
7. Catherine Zeta-Jones' 'All That Jazz' number in Chicago
8. The Bride vs. Elle Driver in Kill Bill: Vol. 2
9. The Bride vs. Go Go Yubari in Kill Bill: Vol. 1
10. The disturbing 30 minute montage at the end in Requiem for a Dream

Isn't it a little early to be compiling a list of stand out moments of the decade?

I doubt Vanilla Sky would even figure in anyone's top 50 come 2010.
