Id have to say the Tango scene from Scent Of A Woman by Al Pacino is probably one of my favourite scenes from a film of all time.......just amazing!Brought tears to my eyes:o
 
The opening scene from Pulp Fiction. "Any of you f*****g p****s move, and I'll execute every mother-f*****g last one of you!"

When the Students are walking out of the school in The Faculty and all the other "infected" students are looking at them, the way it's done is really good as you can sense the paranoia.
 
My ultimate favourite is in 'Pirates of the Caribbean - the Curse of the Black Pearl' when Captain Jack Sparrow makes his entrance. Standing on the mast of the boat against the skyline. The camera then pans out and the boat is filling with water. When he finally gets to land he just steps of the mast to the walkway. It's just the best entrance ever.
 
Raiders of the Lost Ark: The excavating scene where Indy and excavators are silhouetted against the sunset.

Blade Runner: Roy Batty's death scene.

The Iron Giant: The scene where the Iron Giant flew into the missile, saving the town.

Caddy Shack: Where Carl Spackler is caddying for the Bishop during the storm.

Donnie Darko: The end scene with the music "Mad World".
 
True Romance - scene between Christopher Walkern & Dennis Hopper where Dennis Hoppers character explains the origins of Sicillians. Walkern just oozes menace.
 
Will Smith in Independance Day when he punches the alien in the crashed spacecraft and says " welcome to earth....now thats what i call a close encounter "!!
 
So many from Blade Runner but surely the coolest scene is where he puts the photo into the fax/copier looking thing,zooms in and out and around until he finally sees the picture of Zhora reflected in the bathroom mirror."Gimme a hard copy..." Absolute classic! The photo would probably have to be a billion pixels to get any detail like that,but it is still an awesome scene.

The lineup scene from The Usual Suspects is side splittingly funny,particularly the incomprehensible Benicio Del Toro and the wide eyed manic Stephen Baldwin.

Another Baldwin,Alec,and his cameo at the start of Glengarry Glenross.Pretty much every line was noteworthy.

Slightly embarrassing,but I absolutely LOVE the Bill Pullman 'Independence Day' speech! I know it could be one of the corniest scenes in movie history,but it's certainly one of my favourites.And it always gets to me when the little girl asks him,"Is mommy sleeping now...?"

Just curious,but whatever happened to the Baldwin clan? They used to be in every other film between them but don't seem to have done jack lately.
 
The black widow bikers in "Any which way you can" where they are lined up at traffic lights and clint eastwood says "right turn clyde" and then clyde the orang utang punches the nearest biker and they all fall over like a pack of dominoes to the ground absolutly hillarious !!!
 
The Shawshank Redemption, Tim Robbins prison escape.


The Usual Suspects - the end with the Keyser Soze story being revealed with info all around the police room and Kevin Spacey leaving.

An officer and a gentleman - Richard Gere in his white uniform turning up at the factory at the end, he does look good in it:o

Jaws - We're gonna need a bigger boat:D

Pulp Fiction - the bonnie situation as mentioned before

Rocky Horror - the Time Warp dance, always a giggle.
 
My favourite ever scenes....

Sweeney Todd- Sweeney discovers that Mrs Lovett lied to him
Pirates Of The Caribbean - Jack's BRILLIANT entrance.. in all 3 of them actually.
E.T. - flying over the moon
Finding Neverland - the sucessful Peter Pan on it's first night
Donnie Darko - the cinema
 
The part where the raptors are hunting the kiRAB in the kitchen in Jurassic Park.

The whole of American Psycho. :D

Marv's story in Sin City.

The stampede in The Lion King.

Forrest telling Jenny that he isn't far away if there's anything she wants, in Forrest Gump.

The drill sergeant's introduction in Full Metal Jacket.

Being John Malkovich, when he goes into his own tunnel.

The first ten minutes of Samurai X: Trust

Ninja Scroll, when Jubei fights Tessai.

The final fight at the end of Snatch. A masterclass of sound and vision editing.
 
Probably my favourite ever scene is in The Little Mermaid, Kiss the Girl with all the fish and other animals creating the romance to try and get the spell broken. I just love it!

Also, the final dance in Dirty Dancing.

Gone With the Wind where Rhett and Scarlett are argueing and he just carries her upstairs and you KNOW that they had a really good night!!

Agree with the poster about the USS Indianapolis speech in Jaws, with the subsequent drunken rendition of Show me the Way to go Home:D
 
I prefer the speech at the end at Baird. It's a great performance.



...so any scene with Drew Barrymore crying... :D



That is a brilliant scene, but I prefer the entire Bonnie Situation, including, "Oh, I'm sorry - did I break your concentration?"



Yeah, that was a very scary, yet magical scene. I've always feared David Bowie ever since I saw the cover to Diamond Dogs, watched Labrynth, where he nicks children, then had a nightmare whe I was thirteen that he raped me - not a fun experience, really. Starman was a great song, though.



I totally agree. It was a wonderful introduction, as it hints that one story had just ended as another one was beginning. Depp was the master in that film.



One of my mate's favourite scenes from any film ever. Watching it again, you know he knows he's about to die, regardless, and he ain't never gonna sell his boy down the river to protect himself from an inevitable fate.



The best quote from that film, handled stylishly by the king of nineties cool.
