Okay, since I'm bored, and the favourite film thread has been done millions of times, I thought I'd see what everyone's favourite scenes in films are. Here's mine:
The opening scene of Bladerunner, with the big sweeping shot over the city. Actually the end scene too, with Rutger Hauer's speech.
The parlour scene in Psycho with all the birds on the wall, where you first realise that he's a psycho.
The end sequence in Seven, where Kevin Spacey leads them into the desert.
"These go up to eleven" in Spinal Tap.
The opening sequence in Once Upon a Time in the West - best start to a film ever.
The royale with cheese scene in Pulp Fiction.
The scene in Dancer in the Dark where Selma finds her money's been stolen. :crying: Brilliant acting.
The chicken scene in Eraserhead.

I'm not sure which one to pick, this movie is just so fucking damn good...
The best movie of all time imo.
The dialogues between Irène Jacob and Jean-Louis Trintignant at his house... and then when she's about to leave the judge says "wait - une belle lumière" and a beautiful beam of sunlight illuminates the room... and then is gone. - Rouge
When Amélie leaves all the clues for her boy to find in Montmartre. Also the beginning of the film when the characters are introduced, what is said about them.
When all the town gathers on the square to watch the tearing of the Cinema Paradiso.

Godfather - Michael killing Solazzo and the police chief ... classic.
Hmmm there just a few, there are way too many to put down
Oh yeah that's a good one :yes:
The music go so well with it as well...
Michael's reaction to Fredo's betrayal in The Godfather Pt II is heartbreaking, the acting is phenomenal. The final scenes of Pt III are just plain hilarious, great viewing for a completely different reason.
The Trainspotting scene where Renton dives into "The Worst Toilet in Scotland" to Brian Eno's "Deep Blue Day." :thumb:
In The Bourne Identity, I loved the scene where he's sleeping on the park bench:
German cop: Wake up.
Bourne: Sleeping.
German cop: I said wake up.
Bourne: And I said sleeping.
*commence arse-kicking*
I love the scene in Election where Tracy Flick loses her shit, starts running around tearing down all the posters etc.
I can't leave out Moses Supposes from Singin' in the Rain. Gene Kelly and Donald O'Connor are just spot on.

The opening robbery in Mystey Men.
The 'Respect the Cock' seminar in Magnolia. The opening coincidence bit too actually.
It was more sci-fi looking than Star Wars.
Bank robbery scene in Heat ...
and the "Funny How" scene with Joe Pesci in GoodFellas .... in my sig
Moulin Rouge - just all of it really, but especially when ewan mcgregor sings (oooooo, he's so sexy when he sings!)
Donnie Brasco - "forget about it!"
