Favorite film battle scene

Hello, everybody!!! This is kind of a sequel to my Favorite movie monster thread, so the title says it all!!!

My favorite fights are these (not in any order):

Godzilla's Final battle against Destoroyah- Godzillla vs. Destoroyah

The Siege of Minas Tirith- Lord of the Rings: Return of the King

King Kong's Battle against the 3 V-rexes- Peter Jackson's King Kong

Obi-Wan's Dual with General Grievous- Stars Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith

Gandalf's Dual with the Balrog- LotR: Fellowship of the Ring


So...... anyone got any?

Re: Favorite film battle scene

See, my favorite is right before that, after he stays to fight the agents.

I'm a big fan of difficult fights where the hero can barely make it, not where he wins easy.

My fav most intense fight scene is Spidey vs. Doc Ock in the train sequence. I was almost shaking by the end.

Re: Favorite film battle scene

This is a tie. I'm not in to big flashy things, but this first one is over the top as far as fighting goes.

The first fight scene in 300. Wicked stuff.


Next scene is from Conan the Barbarian. A classic movie and action fighting at it's finest. The end fight is just Conan whooping some ass.

Classic stuff.

Re: Favorite film battle scene

If this counts I really like the Battle of Endor from Star Wars VI

I also love the Batman battle against the Joker from the Dark Knight, the one where the Joker is defeated. That was amazing.

I love birdies and butterflies and rainbows and unicorns and glitter.

Re: Favorite film battle scene

I liked the battle in Star Wars II when all the Jedi where saving Obi-Wan, Anakin, and Padme from Genosis.

I also like the fight in Star Wars III between Obi-Wan and Anakin on Mustafar.

I'm a F18, bro.

Re: Favorite film battle scene

The duel between Anakin and Obi-Wan, in Star Wars episode three, was absolutely stunning. I could not get over how well done it was; I think it's easily one of the best fights in the entire Star Wars series. Star Wars also has sweet blaster battles.
I like a lot of the battles already mentioned.
The King Kong fight with the three T-Rexes
Batman's fight with the Joker
Fights from 300
The battle at Minas Tirith. Although I'm not as much a fan of such epic sequences. I love the fight with the Orcs and the cave troll in Fellowship of the Ring.
The fight and the end of Saving Private Ryan is incredible too. The one where the squad needs to defend the bridge in the ruined town. And last, but not least, was the D-Day invasion. I've heard that D-Day veterans who saw that, found it so realistic, that they felt like they were reliving it.

It's not whether you win or lose. It's having the 4th Massachusetts Line that counts!

Re: Favorite film battle scene

The end scene in Equilibrium is pretty sweet there are katanas and pistols and all sorts of stuff.
The end fight in the Last Samurai.

Re: Favorite film battle scene

The battle of Stirling Bridge scene from Braveheart. The way the battle is portrayed is actually not accurate (more of a mix of several other battles from the period) but I still really dig it. The drama and the cinematography are both excellent, and you really get a sense of the tactics involved as well.

Re: Favorite film battle scene

I like every fight in the StarWars except for the ones with Order 66. I specifically like the fights on Endor and Jabba's Sail Barge in the Return of the Jedi.
