Claude Rains' closing down of Rick's casino in Casa Blanca. "I'm shocked, SHOCKED to find gambling.... Here are your winnings sir....."

one of my favorites too. also, at the end of the same movie after bogart shoots the german major in front of claude raines: raines-"major strasser has been shot...round up the usual suspects."

terminator (the first one): arnold in cheap hotel room, standing in front of mirror repairing his shot-up body.

hotel clerk, noting a foul smell-"hey buddy, what do you have in there a dead cat?"

arnold, after computer scans potential responses-"f#$k you @ssh0le."

I think it's High Plains Drifter where Clint enters the local bar for his first drink from being on the dusty trail. All the local tough guys come in to the bar to check him out and proceed to give him a speech about how "things move a little to fast in this town for strangers". Clint is drinking from a glass with his left hand his right hand out of sight below the bar. He looks at them at goes for the bottle with his right hand and all the local asspickers are stumbling and fumbling around trying to clear leather and get out of the way. That's great stuff

I consider myself kind of a movie freak, so there are WAY, WAY too many scenes to list, more than I can remember actually.

However, the first ones to como to my mind:

Way of the Gun, all of the scenes.

Bank shootout in Heat.

Enemy at the gates, all of it. Specially when Vassilii and the Soviet officer first meet, when Vassilii snipes without a scope.

The naked gun trilogy, all of the scenes.

Star Wars Original Trilogy, again all of it. But obviously, "Luke I am your father" "NOOOOOOOO THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE!!!!!"

Tremors, Burt and his wife (forgot her name) shooting at the graboid when it enters their house. Classic, beatiful scene.

Star Wars Episode 2, Yoda fights Count Dooku. I was literally standing clapping and cheering Yoda in the theater.

Star Wars Episode 1, Qui Gon Jinn and Obi Wan Kenobi fight Darth Maul.

Predator, Arnold and the predator prepare for the final battle. The whole squad shooting blindly and destroying the forest "CONTACT!!!!!!!"

All of the Anime movie Akira, specially Tetsuo battling the tank, and Tetsuo's mutation.

Final gunfight in the Anime movie Jin Roh "Fuseeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!"

Aliens, when they find the cocooned colonists and the battle that ensues. Chilling at first, then scary, then action packed. Perfect scene.

Independence Day "Hello boys!!!!! I'm baaaaaaaaaack!!!!!!" "He did it!!!! The son of a b**ch did it!!!!!"

Jaws, "You need a bigger boat"

Terminator 2, Arnold "revives" and unsticks himself from the iron bar he was impaled with. The fight with the T 1000, when Arnold punches it in the face but it turns into arms.

The bone collector, a crippled Denzel Washington fighting the killer whichever ways he can. Breath taking.

Big Fish, every scene where the father recalls his experiences.

Like I said, there are hundreds of scenes I (and everyone else) should list here...

Almost every scene in Super Troopers.

Mac and Foster play 'meow'.

Mac and Foster freed from the trailer after playing 'repeat'. Thorny opens the door and says " It stinks like sex in here".

Thorny and Rabbit pull over the freaks in the Porsche.

Mac wearing the steel cup at the firing range. Chief Hagen, "The bulletproof cup? I invented this gag, Mac. Only in my day, the rookie got naked. And we also used blanks. You're a sick mother####er, Mac. "

Mac, the radar gun and the billboard.

And every scene I missed.

New movie from Broken Lizard this spring!!!

It was on again last night.

Give me a liter of cola. Whats a liter of cola? Liter is french for give me a fu#%$@^ cola! :roflol:

Eagle Eye.

There's a scene where FBI agent Billy Bob Thornton is jumping up and down berating his fellow agents yelling something like "I better start getting some results pretty damned soon, because if I don't, you're all going to be demoted to something that going to require touching s#@t with your hands!"

It's not very "practical" gun use, but I love Equilibrium start to finish.

Also, in Collateral when Tom Cruse's character gets his briefcase back from the two thugs.

I can't believe no one has mentioned Apocalypse Now. The river scene when Sheen says "I told you not to stop, now let's go." Brutal, but it really drove that movie home. Without a doubt, my favorite scene ever.

Anyone who likes the movie might find this clip interesting. Long, but it seems as if the music was written for it.

V for Vendetta;

Creedy: Defiant to the end, huh? You won't cry like him, will you? You're not afraid of death. You're like me.

V: The only thing that you and I have in common, Mr. Creedy, is we're both about to die.

Creedy: How do you imagine that's gonna happen?

V: With my hands around your neck.

Creedy: Bollocks. Whatchya gonna do, huh? We've swept this place. You've got nothing. Nothing but your bloody knives and your fancy karate gimmicks. We have guns.

V: No, what you have are bullets, and the hope that when your guns are empty I'm no longer be standing, because if I am you'll all be dead before you've reloaded.

Creedy: That's impossible. Kill him.

[the fingermen open fire on V, but he still stands after their clips are empty]

V: My turn.

[V proceeds to kill all fingermen with his knives before they manage to reload]

Creedy: [desperately shooting at the approaching V] Die! Die! Why won't you die?... Why won't you die?

V: Beneath this mask there is more than flesh. Beneath this mask there is an idea, Mr. Creedy, and ideas are bulletproof.

+1 for V for Vendetta- The line "you'll all be dead before you've reloaded" gets me every time.

The Hangover- The scene with Mike Tyson

300- When the Persians make the first charge, there's a point where everything gets dead silent before the Spartans push them back.
