As title says.

Neo vs multiple Mr Smiths - Matrix Reloaded
Rohans Charge - LOTR - Return of the King
Shlubb and Klump talk automobiles - Sin City
Achilles vs Hektor - Troy
 
I prefer the final battle between Neo and Mr. Smith in The Matrix Revolutions. That was the highlight of the film for me.
The ending of Casino Royale was great. Craig delivers the famous line really well in that scene.
And the ending of Pulp Fiction was good too. That was some crazy shit.
 
One of my favorite movie scenes is from American Psycho.

I love the scene where Patrick Bateman kills Paul Allen. Bateman puts on Huey Lewis - 'Hip to be Square' and goes off into a rant about Lewis's album. Then Bateman kills Paul Allen with an axe and yells: "TRY GETTING A RESERVATION AT DORSIA NOW YOU FUCKING STUPID BASTARD!"
 
The Usual Suspects

Near the end, after Verbal Kint has left, Agent Kujan looks at the noticeboard and...well, people who have watched the movie know the rest

Lost in Translation - the taxi ride at the end

Raging Bull - Jake La Motta vs Sugar Ray Robinson

M*A*S*H* - The American football game

Great scene, I was actually going to include this in my list.
 
The end of The Rock, where Nicholas Cage defuses the problem at Alcatraz, and yet a fighter pilot hits the missile launch button before he can disengage. A very taut, well-directed sequence from supposed "hack" Michael Bay.

The execution sequence in Braveheart.

Rediscovering Jaws several years ago, I remember watching the build-up to the attack on the crowded beach. Timmy floating out there on his yellow raft, and the direction heavily hinted that he was going to be the one to get it. I remember thinking "nah, this is 1977 and directed by Spielberg. No way is the kid gonna get eaten, and even if he does, they're not gonna show--HOLY CRAP!!!"

I loved the aforementioned scene in American Psycho, but the one that sticks in my head is when Patrick is having sex, he can't stop looking in the mirror at himself, and even does the bicep flex. Classic.
 
Wow... a lot to talk about here...

The House of Flying Daggers holds one of my favourite scenes. The scene where they're in the field of flowers and he goes to get her some. That was adorable and I loved it when I watched it. The music that accompanied it was so beautiful.

I also love many of the scenes in Lord of the Rings.
Fellowship...I thought the scenes with Pippin and Merry were all fun to watch and I loved most of those. I also enjoyed the part where they're travelling through the dawrf's realm. I've forgotten the name. >_<

The Two Towers. I adored the opening scene on the extended edition, with all the mountains covered in snow. That was breath-taking. Other than that, I enjoyed the scene at Helm's Deep for some reason. Not many do.

The Place Promised in Our Early Days also had some beautiful scenes, such as the one where Sayuri's playing the violin to the others, or where she's running through the field and they're dreaming of finding out what's atop the tower.

And Shrek 2. Now I adored the scene where I Need A Hero is sung. That was simply awesome!

How about Pirates of the Caribbean? I found the scene where Will and Jack are fighting fun to watch.

In the second, I loved the scene on the island where they're in those bone-net-balls. That was pretty fun. There was another too... *tries to remember* Where Jack's running away from the savages and becomes a kebab. Haha. :lol:

And in World's End, I loved the scene where they're on the boat, searching for Davy Jones' Locker, and in the middle of a frozen area. The music made that scene stunning, and there were comical moments too.
 
the final fight between Sephiroth and cloud in advent children is goddamn awesum and also the arena fight in jet li's unleashed when he beats the crap outta like 4 people

I also loved that scene in Shrek 2...perfect choice in music. In fact, that movie was filled with awesomeness. So much better than the first.

Pirates had so many good sequences also...probably the best new franchise since Indiana Jones. Most of my favorites were from Dead Man's Chest, which I consider the best of the three. Most fall toward the end of the movie, particularly the buildup culminating in Elizabeth Swann's kiss with Jack aboard the Black Pearl (all of which was unfortunately abandoned in the third, however), and the lovely scene that follows.

"Hello, Beastie..."

Yes it was. :) American Psycho had some awesome scenes. Another one of my favorite scene was when all of the men were discussing their business cards. Bateman flipped out when he saw Paul Allen's card. "Egg shell white."
 
Of the one's that immediately pop into mind...

The Matrix:
At the end when Neo gets back up off the floor and finally realizes he’s “The One”, as well as the entire fight sequence that followed.

The Big Lebowski:
 Walter wants to throw Danny's ashes into the sea, but the wind blows it directly into the Dudes face.

Mallrats:
The scene where William is trying to see the sailboat in the hidden picture, some kids come up and see it straight away and call it a schooner, instead of a sailboat. William calls the little kid a dumb bastard and says it's a sailboat, not a schooner, to which the kid retorts, a schooner is a sailboat, stupid head. William gets really angry and yells 'YOU KNOW WHAT? THERE IS NO EASTER BUNNY! THAT THING OVER THERE IS JUST A GUY IN A SUIT!'

Meet Joe Black:
When Brad Pitt gets hit by two cars.
 
I quite like that sexy making out in the rain scene from the notebook. That movie makes me wobbly in the knees. :blush:
 
I love war movies, such as Braveheart and The Last Samurai. I think they have one of the best scenes there. One that really stands out to me is from The Last Samurai, where they showed cherry blossoms in the midst of war. It was towards the end, and it was just so beautiful...
 
Jaws : " gonna need a bigger boat" scene, and when Hooper ir trying to take a picture of the shark with Broody in the shoot, and Broody yells back to him I think something like " take a picture of my arse "....always makes me laugh

300 : pretty much any fighting scene, awesome camera work

LOTR: Rohan charge, and Faramir rides to his death, just a few of many many...

The opening scene of the POTC:The Curse of the Black Pearl; the best and one of the funniest opening scenes I have seen that was donne to introduce the character appart from Raiders of the Lost Ark probbably

will post more later :)
 
Gangs of New York - Bill the Butcher,

"Whats this the pope's new army, a few crusty bitches and a handful of rag tags."

I agree...Jack's intro was one of the best introductions ever. His arrival on his sinking boat perfectly set the tone of the character.

But speaking of Raider's, obviously the legendary sword vs. pistol duel in the streets of Cairo has to be mentioned...
