What movies have the best explosions?

ROTTENLUNGZ206 · 06-09-2013, 08:20 AM

Any Michael Bay movie.

Visco. · 06-09-2013, 08:24 AM

The Hurt Locker

L-Rouge · 06-09-2013, 08:27 AM

Star Trek Into Darkness had some nice ones at high warp.

singular though, MI Ghost Protocal's Kremlin detonation was awesome!. Armageddon's Paris leveling event was amazing for its time.

Star Wars

Best implosion - Star Trek

Speed 2: Cruise Control

Hmmm... Michael Bay and Speed 2... who would have thought those two answers would fall under a question with "Best" and "Film" in the title...

I think I'd have to go with 2: The asteroid detonation in Armageddon and Praxes blowing up in Star Trek 6. Hurrah for big things going bang!

tigertron · 06-09-2013, 08:58 AM

The best explosions are to be found in Michael Bay's movies.

That huge tanker explosion in "The long kiss goodnight"

Or from that same movie, the explosion that blows Samuel L Jackson through a window and a neon billboard.

I don't know what you mean by explosion...so I would have to go with any Scorsese movie with Joe Pesci in it

The Dark Knight

The Joker blows up Gotham General Hospital.

Pre CGI: "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid". In the scene where the rail car gets blown up the stuntmen for Newman and Redford took one hell of a wallop!

Indy007 · 06-09-2013, 11:07 AM

Commando
Dirty Dozen
Apocalypse Now
Green Zone (opening scenes)
Independence Day
Hard Boiled
Daylight
Die Hard (pushing chair with explosives down elevator shaft)

Can you narrow it down with what type of explosions you are looking for?
