No contest - perhaps that's why it's posted on YouTube in various repeat vids.

Cinematic gold!
Although it really makes sense to see the whole film to understand what exactly this scene means to the character, it is still obvious it means a lot to him.
As mentioned already the Heat shootout scene. I was lucky enough to see that when it came out at the cinema, what a scene! I've not seen a shootout done better.
I would also nominate the end scene of A Very Long Engagement when she hurries to the garden, sits down, smiles with teary eyes and just watches........

Plus this:
Sunshine ignition scene. http://m.youtube.com/#/watch?v=TBzVPXr8SNY

Mmm hard one this but after lot's of thought I would have to say the end of 'Last of the Mohicans' the scenery, the emotion, the fantastic score, does not get better than that.

"IS it Safe?" - Put me off dentists for life but brilliant cinema!

Italian job ending
Italian job starting sequence
Scarface "say hello to my little friend"
Pulp Fiction - when Bruce walks in in Marcellez Wallece getting his back doors smashed in by Zed and the gimp mummering yes yes urg goes upstairs to select his weapon of choice then sorts out the rapist
Snatch - meeting the Pig farmer
Lock stock - the Brun gun scene when the girl grabs it and cuts down everyone
Marley - when the dog dies the build up to it
American Beauty - the ending scene a great ending to a superb film

End scene to 'Being There'. Perfect end scene for me.

Probably one of the few guys to admit it but I thought Brokeback mountain was an utterly complete film really good.


The Joker - Heath ledger when arrested such an amazing piece of acting so disturbed so real

"Scenes"

It's a simple plural.

I'm a pedant, but I prefer being right to being liked.

So it's a old Range Rover with a roll cage, some flashing lights and a gun rack. I think I'll pass on it.

And sometimes you're neither.

I like a good set-piece shoot-em-up.

The bank heist in 'Heat'.
The RPG attack in 'Clear and Present Danger'.
The shoot-out at the end of the Wild Bunch (and 'the walk' that leads up to it).
The shoot-out in the station in 'The Untouchables'.
Neo and Trinity and "lots of guns" in 'The Matrix'.
Shoot-out in the supermarket in 'Grosse Point Blank'.
Showdown at 'The House of Blue Leaves' in 'Kill Bill'.
Showdown in 'The Yakuza'.

It's - contraction of "it is". It is correctly used.
I'll - contraction of I will. Ugly, but validly used.
Am I missing the error?

Scene's - just wrong? It is a really thread though.

Weirdly, I think the suggestion of the start of Up is a good one.
Bar scene in Walter Mitty makes me smile
Closing scene in Maltese Falcon

Oh yes, stunning.

From the moment Uncas makes his move to save Alice to the camera circling Magua and Chingachgook at the end. Awesome.

Seems like a long time since this was last on TV.

This.

I don't really care but this silly pedantry pervades PH way too much.

Paddy Considine's performance in Shane Meadows excellent "Dead Man's Shoes".

Watch the film, but the highlight is 1 min into this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=58ylrJ0cH2w

The getaway from the arms deal that went wrong in Ronin.
Always brings a huge grin to my face.
