Another all time fave scene for me is the Sean noke’s death scene from sleeper’s, when John and Tommy happen to spot him in a bar and go and sit with him and make him guess who they are, then kill him, for anyone who hasnt seen this film, Seans nokes was a guard who sexually abused them while they were kids in a detention centre. I dont know how to embed the clip but heres a link to it. http://www.anyclip.com/movies/sleepers/sitting-with-nokes/

Thomas Jane completely sells this scene like his life depends on it, unbelievably underrated actor.

Speak of the Devil, Thomas Jane is the man. Give 'Em Hell Malone is just the right kind of film-- loads of shooting, dry humor, and a sullen disposition

Lame, the clip cuts off right after they remind him who they are. I was looking forward to watching him die
is it dead?
Duke fucking Wayne!
Although not a cinematic masterpiece, the part where Boagrius emerges from his army sends shivers down my spine every time I see it.
De Niro is one of my favourite actors of all time, this is one of the reasons why. The hysterics of being so close to death and the brutal slaughter of his captors amazes me.
And this infamously iconic scene from Taxi Driver, solidifying Bickle’s psychotic desire to be regarded as a vigilante hero in the eyes of others. This scene could just as easily sum up the entire film, and the idea of a broken man with a need to actually be somebody and not just fade off into the shadows, thanks by no end to De Niro’s acting.
I really thoroughly enjoy this scene from Annie Hall because being so intensified in the critique of film, I realise that I can use just as many mundane buzzwords and be just as woefully pretentious as the guy behind Woody in this scene. I also adore this scene for Allen’s directive capabilities, integrating his neurosis with unorthodox filming techniques and pulling it off in a wonderfully witty, humorous and all across satisfying endeavour. I like romantic comedies that treat me as if I have a brain, and this scene, let alone the film itself, is a prime example of that.
Ummm, any scene with boobs.

I love “The Outlaw Josey Whales.”
And lets not forget about, “Fist full of dollars”, awesome scene!
One of my favorite scenes was in Closer, when Larry finds Alice working in a strip club. That scene needs context though; it doesn’t make much sense on its own.
For no-punches-pulled relationship drama, Closer is worth a watch. One of the few films I’ve seen where you want to hate every single character. It’s not exactly pleasant viewing, just very well done.
Here’s an earlier scene:
Also, the song from the locket in, “For a Few Dollars More”, plays in my subconscious during times of stress.
Has anyone seen the film Antichrist by Lars Von Trier? The scene where Charlotte Gainsbourg takes a 2x4 to Willem Dafoe’s nuts then jerks him off while he’s mostly unconscious til he ejacs blood…I couldn’t find it on YouTube but the movie is on Netflix. Those of you on here who are misogynists will appreciate it, especially the ending.

Oh well, I would like to think that my alleged misogynie has more class than a 2x4 to the balls…
Also, the reveal in Revolver is fun. For the most part, the story appears nice and linear up until this point, but then Ritchie flips that all on its head. I like how he intersperses the flashbacks with the internal and external dialog, in an attempt to have the viewer reach the same epiphany as Jake does.
