Except isn't it the uniformed cops' ear he cuts off? I'd also throw in Tim Roth's carefully practiced monologue about his fake encounter with a drug-sniffing dog in the restroom.

I loved Basterds, but for me his early work is by far his best; Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, Jackie Brown. Pulp Fiction is his masterpiece imo.

Nictarion Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 If we're talking Reservoir Dogs, other than the classic Stuck in the Middle with You ear scene, I really love the beginning breakfast scene where they discuss Like a Virgin, Mr. Pink's no tipping policy, and Joe trying to remember who Toby Wong is.

Talleyrand Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I agree with a great many already said. For ones I don't think have been mentioned The opening robbery and the killing of Jesse James in The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford And the killing montages of the heist crew in Goodfellas and everyone involved with the scandal in Casino And might as well second Ramsey's Raid 1 & 2 suggestions cause they're honestly some of the best choreographed fights in cinema Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Pesci Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 A lot of my choices are covered already but I'll add a few that weren't. Shootout with the McManus bros and Il Duche in Boondock Saints. Leo and Martin Sheen meeting in the abandoned building and the ensuing chaos in The Departed. Elias dropping to his knees in Platoon. Tommy and Billy Batts in Goodfellas. Dark Helmet commanding Spaceball 1 to go to ludicrous speed in Spaceballs. Hey it fucking hilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vels Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Absolutely Ride of the Rohirrim in RotK - sends chills every time! Luke hammering away at Vader in RotJ after Vader threatens his sister - so much emotion from Luke, The score in that scene is perfect! The crane move in the final fight in Karate Kid - cutting away to the different groups in the audience - so much at stake! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nictarion Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I picked the Copa tracking shot from Goodfellas due to its technical brilliance, but since nobody else has mentioned it; the funny how scene with Pesci. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arch-MaesterPhilip Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Everyone loves the final shootout from Scarface but I think the best scene is the one from the restaurant. You have no soul this scene doesn't get an emotional reaction out of you. See the above caption. I've always wanted to do this. I like the whole thing but the last three or so minutes in particular. It's just awesome. Play for blood remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davrum Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 6 hours ago, Astromech said: "I am a leaf on the wind, watch how I soar" Nice. Also epic is the scene when the blast doors open to reveal to the rest of the crew that River's actually pretty handy with a blade or two, even outnumbered 50:1.

Theda Baratheon Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 From The Ghost and Mrs. Muir (1947) Rex Harrison's character (ghost of a sea captain) telling Gene Tierney's character (widow who has moved into his home) to live her life without him (after they've started to fall in love) all when she's asleep. Also the scene when they're on the balcony together. Just a beautiful romantic criminally underrated scene. The bar scene from Wings of Desire when she's dancing to the post punk band playing on stage. And the suicide scene from Wings of Desire. Will edit posts with youtube vids if i can find them later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steinman Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 The ending to Last of the Mohicans, because of drama and music (Promontory). Freedom/Execution in Braveheart, because of drama and music (Freedom/Execution/Bannockburn). Opening credits of Princess Mononoke, mostly because of music (Legend of Ashitaka).

It's been at least a decade since I've seen the film, but still, that's a bad mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cinematography is great, but I remember it being really slow. Haven't seen it since it first came out though, so my memory of it is a bit hazy. I remember it looking really good, and was well acted, but a bit boring due to the pacing and really long runtime. I will probably give it a second chance at some point though.

Everyone always talks about the cinematography from Jesse James (rightfully so, Deakins best work imo) but I gotta say Nick Caves score is one of my favorites from any flick. Beautiful movie all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
