Default Re: Coolest \"epic fight scene\" in a movie?

Leaving aside what you consider epic, these scenes still get me psyched:

Louden Swain vs. Ryan Chute in Vision Quest
Daniel LaRusso vs. that other guy (sweep the leg!) in Karate Kid

i was a big fan of all of the fight scenes in face/off personally. the house raid scene with the little kid listening to somewhere over the rainbow was classic.

doesnt fit the OPs guidelines, and i'm sure there are better, but thats an underrated movie imo.

No one's mentioned Zhang Ziyi vs. Michelle Yeoh in Crouching Tiger? Man that was a great scene.

I'm suprised no one's mentioned any duel from any Star Wars movie ending.

Bruce Lee vs. Chuck Norris in Return of the Dragon. It's especially great because the whole thing is set up as a psychological progression, not just a matter of eventual luck, surprise, or who's the grittiest or baddest or whatever.

I wish that way of setting up fights, to make them inherently interesting on a level that goes beyond the punch-out, had caught on. Fight scenes would be much more fun today, and less mechanical. I still have the most fun in fight scenes that have psychological elements to them.

I second that
