The greatest action scene in movie history.
 
What is it.

I was thinking of The Matrix Reloaded, Neo vs a shitload of Smiths when I posted this.

Sword fight in The Princess Bride by a mile.

No CG and no stunt men. Eat a dick D-Mac.

Destor, we will fight to the death. No. To the PAIN.

Action scene or fight scene?

D Mac 06-16-2008 07:16 AM

action

D Mac 06-16-2008 07:17 AM

fight scene is basically action

Kalyx triaD 06-16-2008 07:17 AM

Carebears.

El Vaquero de Infierno 06-16-2008 08:28 AM

That scene from Matrix: Reloaded, with neo taking on the smiths gets a bit boring after the first 3-4 minutes.

CSL 06-16-2008 09:32 AM

Whatever it is, it should include John McClane

I assume somebody already posted that Tony Jaa scene

thedamndest 06-16-2008 04:19 PM

The Tony Jaa one is pretty sweet, but I don't like how he unevenly distributes his action. Like some guys get kicked and get something broken and get thrown off of something, and some guys just get thrown down and somehow don't get back up.

My choice is the entirety of the movie Broken Arrow.

Jeritron 06-16-2008 04:37 PM

Raiders of the Lost Ark. From when Indy and Marion get locked in the tomb of snakes..up through the chase scene is the greatest action sequence in movie history.

It starts with a horror/gross out sequence and the action of them escaping, then the flying wing and fist fight with the nazi hoss, then them running from an explosion and into a chase with indy fighting nazis jumping from truck to truck and hanging from the trucks.
Amazingly done, great directing and editing. Naturally it's got great sound, effects, stuntwork, music and everything else, and most importantly it serves a purpose. It advances the plot and has to do with them acquiring the ark.

Jeritron 06-16-2008 04:40 PM

A lot of people don't appreciate the movie, but the Trex fight in King Kong (2005).

That fight scene was fuckin brilliant

Tony Jaa Vs Capoeira dude is better.

Off the top of my head, might have to go with the final showdown from Big Trouble In Little China. Like everything from when they disrupt Lo Pan's wedding on.

That Matrix scene is bunk. I'd say the motorcycle highway chase is better. The fight you can blatantly tell it's cgi part way through the scene and becomes more clearer as it progresses plus he just flies away at the end.

Hmm never heard of that movie. Might have to check it out.

Jura 06-16-2008 07:14 PM

Yeah its a hidden gem. Was the first Christian Bale movie I've seen and made me a big fan of his. I hope they make a sequel or something to it as I really like the idea and story.

Juan 06-16-2008 07:54 PM

From the first Matrix movie...

I'm not the only one who knows The Protector :love:

Insert that whole movie here. Non stop kicking ass.

Protector = :love::drool::yes::y:

Hanso Amore 06-17-2008 08:55 AM

Yeah, for how shitty they were, the Matrix Sequels had some pimp action scenes.

As gay as it sounds, I like the Highway scene in Bad Boys 2. Those movies are my secret love.

After Hulk I would rate the fight scene during the middle of the film as one of my top favorites right now.
