Best Scene of all Time

[Amid Cent]

Godfather I - when Michael wipes out 5 of his enemies during his childs baptism.

Under Siege - Erika Eleniak popping out of the birthday cake.

I've heard that Sam Jackson's death in Deep Blue Sea is a legitimately brilliant scene in a bad movie. He's about to give the classic rally the troops speech when a shark comes and swallows him. Just saying that makes me chuckle, and I haven't even seen the movie.

Saving Private Ryan: The beach assault, and the very end of the movie with the older Ryan at the Captain's grave.

Very powerful.

[etgryphon]

Yeah.

I think the Black Panther Scene with the white kid's report on Abe Lincoln was pretty funny. I went to college with that kid.

Also the scene where the girl takes off all her makeup. That was pretty funny.

Band of Brothers has some great cinematography.

- the shelling of the allied positions at Bastogne
- Winters' "wait for the red smoke" run
- taking the 105's at Ste Mere Eglise

and the most chilling: finding the death camp in the Why We Fight episode, where Liebgott has to tell the prisoners they're being locked up again for their own safety.

Do you know what nemesis means? Scene from Snatch (so many good ones from that movie.

Nice picks. Band of Brothers is/was a great miniseries.

In a similiar vein:

The Pianist, when the German officer has him play the piano.

Schindler's List: the end scene. All of it.

[kurosh]

Can't believe Braveheart isn't in here.
The end when he's being tortured/killed.
