I didn't see any topics on this subject, so I figured I'd make one. If there is already a topic about this, the mods are free to lock it.

My favorites would be:

The ending to Tommy (1975)


The White Wolf scene from Balto


The final battle to The Patriot (2000)


When General Longstreet and Colonel Fremantle talk strategy in Gettysburg (1993)



The opening to Full Metal Jacket (1987)
Can't post the scene due to many inappropriate terms used.

The destructions of The Death Stars in Star Wars 4,and 6,also when Kate,Humphrey howl on the train,also when,Lilly,and Garth howl in the direction of The Moon.

I can't post a link due to its graphic content, but the cell the horse split apart by glass scene^^

The fight scene between Roddy Piper and Keith David in "They Live". Best fight scene ever in a movie in my opinion and I think it held the world record for "longest fight scene in a movie" at the time.

The transformation scene from *insert any epic werewolf movie and Avengers*. ...No seriously. I love those. They're usually the highlight to any film in that category for me. But I do love a big battle scene in the end of a movie. Big fight scene in Avengers for example. Not my favorite but most certainly right up there.

The end fight scene from Kiss of the Dragon:

When the Pink Berets first appear in the movie Hop.

The whole Darkest Hour scene in Rise if the Guardians. Seriously, people, go see that movie. It's gold. For risk of spoilers, though, I'll hit a bit more detail, so if you plan to see the movie, look away.

Main character's Jack Frost, the physically-16-year-old winter spirit. He has been alone, intangible, and frankly, unknown as more than a saying since the 1700s. He doesn't know anything about who he was before he was Frost. But, there comes a time where he is called on by the moon to be a guardian alongside Santa(fill name Nickolas St North), Sandman, the Toothfairy, and the seven-foot-tall kick-butt Easter bunny. Here he learns(after much resistance to the whole idea of beig a guardian) that the tooth fairy guards the memories of everyone in their teeth - his included.
Skip forward several scenes, he has to help paint eggs for Eastersi the kids have an egg hunt. However, he is called away by a disturbingly familiar voice and follows in to a hole in the ground under a rotting old bed frame. Against Jack's better judgement, he jumps right into the antagonist's - Pitch's - lair. He finds his little tooth box, and after a semi-disturbing, depressing confrontation with Pitch(in which Jack is taunted with his invisible status, and begs Pitch to stop), he returns to find the eggs destroyed and Easter lost. He is estranged as the others figure out what happened - even implying Jack was working with Pitch - and he leaves. While our in some icy wasteland, Pitch appears again and offers Jack a partnership - after all, what goes together better than darkness and cold? After a moment, Jack denies, so Pitch shows him that he has this little fairy he is more than willing to crush to death and forces Jack to trade her for his staff, which amplifies his powers. Jack agrees.
Pitch lied though, and the fairy is forced to bite him to get free, only to be thrown and ends up in a Ravine. Pitch breaks Hack's staff - which causes him to double over in pain - and throws him against a glacier and he falls into the ravine. Here he activates the memories and we discover he died while taking his little sister Iceskating - she was stuck on a thin spot, and he used the staff to pull her off, only to slide to that same place. He fell through, and drowned, right in front of her.

Anyway yeah, that's my favorite segment! ^^ Of any movie ever, honestly.

^Totally agree with that ;D (P.S. Jack's actually 18, just so you know :33)

As for me, I adore:
-Collecting Teeth- Rise of the Guardians
-Ending Scene- Rise of the Guardians
-Romantic Flight- HTTYD
-Circle of Life- Lion King
-Puny God- Avengers
-Jar of Dirt- PotC: Dead Man's Chest

Okay, Dee, I agree with all of your selections there. XD
I much perfer the "Drawing" scene with Toothless to the romantic flight, but I loved that movie, too.

~ I GOTTA JAR OF DIIIRT, I GOTTA JAR OF DIIIIRT, I GOTTA JAW OF DIIIIRT, AND GUESS WHAT'S INSIDE IT!! *faceplant*

"STOP!!! *Goes off on some rant of being a god and superior, yadda yadda yad-*
*Hulk proceeds to beat the crap out of Loki*
"Puny god."

One thing though -- I'm not sure there IS a specific age for Jack. He doesn't look or act like an eighteen year old, and even official sources claim his age to vary anywhere from 15 to 18. I dunno. *Shrug*
