    Your favorite scenes...go.

    The conclusion of Ocean's 11 (the remake)...out in front of the Bellagio with the fountains and Clair de Lune playing over it. Just awesome. Timeless, which is particularly surprising in a remake.

    The opening of Pulp Fiction...any one of you move and I'll execute every last one of you (language filtered)....holy crap, it's on. It's like pressing start on an Awesome Machine.

    I totally get I'm almost all alone on this...but the last 5 minutes or so of Signs...where it all comes to him that there was purpose in the mundane and that it mattered. I think that's just ridiculously beautiful.

    Crawling under the conference table in Die Hard...

    "my father...was a fiend....." - Dark Knight .... one character representing absolute chaos, to the point where any origin story on him is impossible because he's one lie after another. The setup of the perfect counterpoint to a character who represented order so perfectly.

    I'm sure I'll think of more...

    The song-and-dance scenes with the Ewoks and humans/robots at the end of "Return of the Jedi". Just kidding.

    Off the top of my head:

    American Beauty - Kevin Spacey is going through his mid-life crisis : Sports car in the driveway, garage door up, and he's bench pressing while smoking a joint...

    Gladiator - "Are you not entertained!?"

    In BOOMERANG, the moment after the restaurant scene when that new Executress Jacqueline tells Marcus it's over, and the lights on the Empire State Building turn off at the exact moment when she breaks stabs his Playa heart. :eek: JUST AT THE NICK OF TIME. [off] ... and the music starts... as he's left all alone.

    This scene from Children of Men. It was done in one take, and is fairly amazing:
