The most badass scene in any movie, ever?

[Gigantopithecus]

I think so.

 

[RearAdmiral]

I'm sure a bunch of famous scenes will pop up but the final few minutes of Battleship got me jonesing pretty good. Yes yes the movie sucks I know.

 

[ImpulsE69]

Damn..I want to argue this..but as a rabid fan of the series, I can't.

There is a lot of anime that blows that scene away in terms of badass-ness; e.g. a good portion of the newer Hellsing OVA's.

Well if we're going foreign, then this entire movie blows them all away:

badass as in, the person is being a badass? or badass, as in it is just a badass scene you can watch over and over?

1st case scenario, the one scene in 300 in slow mo from the side view where the main guy is just ripping through everyone.

2nd case scenario, the opening scene in saving private ryan.

That scene made me NOT want to watch that movie anymore. Nothing but a pit in my stomach...

I always found the scene towards the end of Kick Ass where hitgirl tries to save her dad pretty badass. Both in the action and the way it was shot.

 

[DaveSimmons]

Some other candidates:

- Gunkata in Equilibrium.
- Steven Seagal's hand-to-hand in Under Siege 1
- Gross Pointe Blank when Martin's fighting the other assassin hand-to-hand (because it looked more "realistic" than most action movie H2H)
- The lobby battle in The Matrix
- Leloo Dallas, Multipass.

I'm partial to the Rohirrim charge in Return of the King.

Thinking about it, the one from Two Towers was pretty bad ass too... just watching as they all appear.

Lol, sorry only looked at your first link which reminded me of it. It's so good it deserves 2 posts anyway

The scene in RED where Bruce Willis steps out of the spinning car and starts firing at Karl Urban?

 

[CPA]

The end of The Professional when Leon gives Stansfield the grenade pin.

Leon: "this is from Mathilda"
....
Stansfield: "shit"

But, honestly there were a ton of badass moments in that movie. And yes, I know it's a remake of a foreign movie, but it still kicks ass, so shut it.

I elect the Bren gun scene from Lock Stock & Two Smoking Barrels.

I've always thought the opening fight scene in Gangs of New York was really outstanding. The music in particular.

 

[blankslate]

A few scenes from "A History of Violence" are in contention imo.

It's hard to call out the baddest scene ever because there are many that are just so full of badassery that it's probably unfair to say one is above all the others.

Rob Roy grabbing dude's sword by the blade and using his to slash down half his body from the collarbone.

This one is good too because it's obvious that Tim Roth's character is better with the sword. An early glimpse of Liam Neeson's believability in action roles.

The Last Stand (new one with Arnold)

Johnny Knoxville killing someone with a flare gun.

 

[clamum]

Oh man those Indian movies are glorious. I gotta watch one of them sometime.

My vote goes to (though technically it isn't a movie) the part in "Breaking Point" from Band of Brothers where Spears runs through Foy to link up to the other unit, then runs back across the lines. Like a boss.

Before I opened the thread, I was thinking of this scene. Well done, sir.
