It's just crushing, the lonliness and sadness he's experiencing, and he doesnt utter 1 single word.

The the literal/figurative 'tipping point' finish of that scene is impressive too. In the hands of less talented folk that could have easily been a cheesy, obvious 'oooooh, look everybody...symbolism' moment but it not only worked, it worked really well.

That is a gem of a scene,but it is a shame that clip didn't incorporate the beginning of the next scene filming the skyscrapers,it really is an extention of that scene rather than the following one.

This scene from To live and die in LA is to me one of the greater in the 80's.Don't know why,but just love it to death

Short but one of the greatest scenes ever

I absolutely love that sequence too and I couldn't tell you exactly why either.

In a lot of ways it reminds me of the flight deck ballet at the beginning of Top Gun...it's hard to nail down how they do it but they both sort of set a tone that helps you take the rest of the movie seriously when every brain cell you have is telling you not to.

There are a few scenes from Tombstone, but this one is great:

Love this one too...

ForEver Blu · 05-13-2011, 12:09 AM

Great call on To Live and Die in LA, Heat and Tomstone.

Copland: Shootout at the end.

A Bronx Tale

Layer Cake

Road to Perdition

A bunch of scenes I can choice from but here are a few of my favorites:

Zodiac: The scene in the basement

Almost Famous: Tiny Dancer scene

Boogie Nights: Jesse's Girl scene

Plus numerous Disney and Pixar scenes.

ForEver Blu · 05-13-2011, 12:39 AM

Platoon

Full Metal Jacket

TCM(1974)

Sarge · 05-13-2011, 12:48 AM

That Platoon clip is classic for sure... great call.

Some part of me feels like Goodfellas is a string of greatest music videos-and I mean that in the best possible way.Love the movie,but feel it was one of the first ones to start that trend-which I'm not sure I like... To be clear:the movie is in my top 10 list for sure,and on some days top 5.Just to clarify.

Another great scene from perhaps the greatest movie ever made:

The final action scene of the last of the Mohicans is so powerful IMO. The score and the satisfaction of seeing Magua being killed is easily my favorite scene in any movie.

I totally forgot about this one.

The score is just awesome.

Tha Major sacificing himself . . . Hawkeye putting him out of his misery . . .

Then, the look that Magua gives the younger Munro right after he kills Hawkeye's brother . . . and that little wave of his hand . . . as you said. Powerful!

Might as well post it . . .

So much emotion, with so little or nothing needing to be said.

Powerful INDEED!

Pulp Fiction, when Butch saves Marsellus. That scene built up so well, and the climax / ending was just eye-popping and can't take your eyes off quality. Especially when Butch slowly takes his time to choose his weapon.
