Best Movie Scenes

You know those scenes in movies that you can just watch over and over again?

Say you catch a particular film on TV and you have to watch it up to your favourite scene.

Those scenes which you just have to see and they don't lose any less power the more you watch them.

I have a few:

1. True Romance - Christopher Walken's conversation with Dennis Hopper.
2. Heat - Al Pacino and Robert De Niro
3. Training Day - The Scene around the card game
4. Goodfellas - "Funny How?"
5. Taken - "I will kill you" monologue
6. Matrix - "I know Kung Fu"
7. Rocky - all of the training montages for Rocky 1 - 4 & 6
8. 12 Angry Men - so many great scenes in this movie, that I can count the whole film
9. Notting Hill - Horse & Hound
10. Love Actually - Emma Thompson and Joni Mitchell

There's loads more, but they're all that come to mind right now for me. I'm probably missing tonnes!!

Unforgiven - When Eastwood enters the saloon to kill Gene Hackman.

Jaws - Robert Shaw's story of the Indianapolis.

Fanny And Alexander - When God reveals himself from behind the door to Alexander.

Lots of scenes from Kurosawa's movies, but I won't list them.

1. The death of HAL
1. The final showdown in TGTBTU

I really think that in terms of individual scenes nothing at all tops these two. I do not think cinema is capable of going beyond what is done in those two scenes.

If I were to add a couple just in terms of favorites it would probably be the restaurant scene in Playtime and the ending to 8 1/2.

Well now you've got hundreds of thousands of hours of free porn on the internet. You don't even need to shell out $10 and wait an hour to see a nipple for a brief 3 seconds. Hell you can even see nudity/porn when you're in the theater while watching a G rated Disney cartoon, all you have to do is take out your smartphone.
