My cousin Walter bit by Brodie, toward the end of Mallrats. Epic.

I'd have to say Winnie the Pooh and the Blustery Day had some really intense moments. Probably the scariest part though was when Pooh was trapped in a honey bottle floating downstream during a storm. I could barely watch that part... afraid of what might happen to Pooh in such a disastrous storm...

Im just curious since im always in for a good ride on a movie emotionally and want to see what you all think are pretty impressive.

For me it is by far the scene in "Flight of the Phoenix" when they go to talk to the Mongolian nomad's with Massive Attack's "Angel" playing in the background. If you havent scene that movie I suggest you do because its pretty damn awesome The scene is probably the whole reason I began listening to MA and now they are prob my favorite band.
Yea, that scene was really intense, the song was perfect for it! Can't think of anything really epic right now...

Wait the part in V For Vendetta, where hundreds of civillians wearing Guy Fawkes Masks march infront of parliament, that was awesome.

Oh my God.

When Mufasa dies in The Lion King is easily the most epic scene ever made.

for me it was 2 scenes in 300, the now famous "This is Sparta" followed by a kick down the deep hole and the scene where the Spartans are slashing all the Persians off the cliff.

The book and movie have different endings.

Most powerful movie scene for me is when Dante and Becky realise they love eachother and kiss while Kinky Kelly has sex with a donkey in the background, truly touching stuff. (Clerks 2)

And the card scene from American Psycho.

Im sorry but that play needs to die. I read it last year for English and hated it.

On the topic, I liked the ending to fearless, with jet li, i don't know if its just me, but i really enjoyed that movie, partially because i am chinese and the main character reminds me of me, with the arrogance, but im more the middle part of him in fearless.

Bit hard to name such a scene.
Popular pop-culture misconception, but the quote is actually: "No, I am your father."

Most intense movie scene for me was probably when sergeant Elias got killed when he was left behind due to Sgt. Barnes treachery. Got Adagio For Strings playing in the background when Elias slumped to his knees and threw up his arms, that was brilliant.

When Trinity sees the sun for the first time in Revolutions. It just made me wonder what it would feel like to see the sun for the first time.

But seriously, come to think of it, that scene, in a cartoon of all things, was pretty epic. When I watched it as a kid I would feel really sad after that seen.

The Flightplan, when everything the Mother thought was fake.
As if all her memories, was just nothing.
It was really puzzling, sad and suspensif.
I loved it^^, I really made me intrest so much on that movie.
Not telling the ending, the Ending was a great relief^^.
As if I too, was released from the burden^^.
I was feeling what the girl was feeling, In the movie not on set^^.
