28 Days Later abandoned London scene - scary, amazing, inspiring... especially if you've ever been to London.

I liked the ending scene in Schindler's List where you see the real Schindler Jews.

As well as the scene where the father is being led to his death but still puts on a happy face for his son in Life is Beautiful.

I really like the entire truck chase scene in Indiana Jones Raiders of the Lost Ark. Just a well put together sequence.

I really loved the impressionistic animated scenes in Pink Floyd's The Wall

I've seen the resturant where Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker have the big shootout in Rush Hour. They painted the entire front wall to let everyone know it! :)

That was alot of work. How about the scene where Mickey and Mallory are just first getting away after killing Mallory's father, where they are driving with the animation in the background, that is just brilliant, on director Stone's part.

The Biocyte shootout in Mission Impossible 2 where Hunt is trying to save Nyah after she injects herself with Chimera. The slow motion and music- the romantic ballet of shootouts.

And the slo-mo nightclub shootout in Face/Off with "Somewhere over the Rainbow" playing.

^ Both from John Woo films- then he screwed it up with Paycheck. ;)

The Neo vs 99 Smiths from Matrix Reloaded.

Opening sequence of Ultimate Force (yes its a TV series but oh well)

The ending I finally figured out for my movie. It's going to rely on the rest of the movie to understand the end. But I've finally got the ending, the perfect ending. I'll have to get to revising the script when I get over my bad weekend.

very true grant. Just the fact the these men could be so senseless and have fun while raping a woman makes it very disturbing

I can't believe that nobody has mentioned "ALIENS". The end sequence with the power loader and queen are worth the cost of the dvd alone (not to mention that the film is pure genius anyway).
Ooh, french maid. Didn't expect me home from the whipped cream store so soon did you? And who's your lady friend?

No, but I cannot seem to find many threads that interest me. I was interested in discussion on physical special effects, but very few here seem to know much about them.

Look at the dates before posting, he joined four days before this thread was resurrected, I find it unlikely that he joined after seeing the mistake, waited for someone to bring up the topic again then post. And ask some questions Father, the Stunts & Physical threads have been slow lately.
