Classic!
The Apollo 13 launch was just brilliant when I saw it at the cinema. The music really built up the suspense. Great movie:

The twist dance scene in Pulp Fiction
Every scene in Pulp Fiction!
^^^ this ^^^ But especially the openings scene. What's even more brilliant: the opening in the diner isn't really the start of the story!Every scene in Pulp Fiction!
We had the sound track on CD and on a holiday trip to France, we did a detour through Luxembourg City. With the windows down and the car stereo on 10, the text of this scene followed by Dick Dale and the Del Tones turned heads!
The scene in the Matrix where Neo and the chick storm the building and it’s a balletic hyper kinetic gun fight.

No mention of 'the landing' in Saving Private Ryan so I'm going for that.
The most impactful cinematic sequence I've ever seen... especially if you get a chance to see it on the big screen.

It’s a moving scene and horrifying at the same time. Top filmmaking.
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Brilliant
Anybody called "Donny" must have had a hell of a time after that film.

Final fight scene from Last Of The Mohicans is worthy of a mention.
'Hammer' fight scene from original Oldboy
The cranberry juice scene in the departed.
Also give a score to the aforementioned dusk til dawn "thsts what I call a f**kin show!!“ scene.
Best scene involving marionette puppetry ...

Yes, brilliant performance by Wes Studi.
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

Many scenes in “The World’s Fastest Indian”, the story of Burt Munro, played by Anthony Hopkins are my favourites.
The opening scenes testing his Scout in the early hours, his arrival at Bonneville for the first time and the exhilaration of “One good run”. I’ve experienced all this myself and the film captures those moments perfectly.
Favourite comic scene - maybe Donald Sutherland as “Oddball”, eating cheese, drinking wine, catching rays - “Why aren’t you helping fix it (the tank)?” “I don’t know how they work, I just drive them”. Another scene from my life!
Rollie Free’s description of Burt Munro’s Indian being about as stable as his first wife is another favourite, particularly as they are eating in the long-gone Mexican diner we used to hang out in at Bonneville.
Favourite dream sequence? Always liked the phantom squadron sequence in Porco Rosso borrowed from Roald Dahl.

A childhood favourite of mine, John Wayne in the searchers.

Great choice. I'll also add the opening scene.
Alec Baldwin's speech to rally the troops in Glengarry Glen Ross is a standout for me.

Not sure I have a favourite, but I’ve never once not laughed in anticipation of this line delivery from the legend Lesley Neilson:

The Waco Kid

Sorry, Hope I haven't been greedy.
Another great Kelly’s Hero’s scene is when Oddball is chastising the Tank driver for having ‘Negative waves’ about the bridge being down. it cuts to the view of the bridge through binoculars and Oddball says “bridge is up” the tank crew all have massive grins, but then a plane bombs the bridge. Oddball looks through the binoculars again and say “no it ain’t” edit another Oddball moment is when Clint Eastwood asks him who all the people are he replies “the band”
I also like the final scene in The Professionals (the cowboy film). The baddie looks at Lee Marvin and says “you bastard” Lee Marvin looks at him and says “yep... by birth, but you Sir are a self made man”
Lee Marvin also has a few great scenes in The Big Red One, one where he walks around with the little boy on his shoulders and he can’t bring himself to put him down when the little boy dies. And the last scene when he stabs the German after the ceasefire, when he finds out the war is over he does all he can to save the Germans life, something he didn’t do at the end of the First World War. The Big Red one is an under rated war film.
lots of good ones already posted
Gun Fight in Love Honour and Obey, the funniest gun fight in movie history! Fix bayonets!!

Doc Holliday meets Johnny Ringo in Tombstone (1993). Great performance by Val Kilmer.
"Look darling, Johnny Ringo, the deadliest pistoleer since Wild Bill...they say....
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
Richard Pryor lighting the match is one of the funniest scenes ever IMO
Slightly NSFW
Ben Affleck's cameos in Boiler Room are also great & similar.

Like already mentioned the opening scene in The Italian Job with Matt Munro singing Days Like These with the stunning Lamborghini Muira in the alps and also the opening scene in Layer Cake, another top car and track.

All of Val Kimer's scenes are superb in this film - I remember him sneering at Ringo while everyone else is trying to deesclate the situation and of course the duel scene.
My favourite scene from the excellent film, The Deerhunter.

Beach Landing in Saving Private Ryan must be right up there, along with "Do you feel lucky?" from Dirty Harry.

Breitling Cosmonaute 809 - What's not to like?
Some fantastic clips so far. Something from me a little light hearted; John Candy and Steve Martin in Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
When Martin looks across and Candy is dressed as the devil.

You may notice I like westerns.
"I had to come back..."
"I know"
Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.
I was thinking about Tombstone as it's got loads of great scenes... or Heat but they've both been mentioned so I'm going for this.
I love the film, I love the actor and this quote just sums up 2020.
