I'm impressed with your list and am glad you included Star Wars, Heat, and Predator in there! I love action movies and these are some of the best scenes...Ever consider any from the zombie genre? I guess the raw, serial carnage just gets repetitive...Well done, Zach

Star Wars... (Reply to this comment)

As you know, one of my favorites! That last scene is awesome...Han comes and distracts Vader and says to Luke..."You're all clear, Kid. Now let's blow this thing and go home!" Love it! Enjoyed your list!

The Lord of the Rings – The Two Towers (Reply to this comment)

"The battle of Helm’s Deep is one of the most awesome things from this amazing trilogy."

All inspired by Ralph Bakshi, who never got the credit he deserved.

If I were you, I would have put down 'The Lord of the Rings (1978)' instead of 'The Lord of the Rings – The Two Towers.'

But I'm not you, so I'm not one to talk.

You forgot about the best action/adventure movie ever: Raiders of the Lost Ark. Choose one of many sequences. I pick the one in which Indiana Jones is being dragged along by the truck. Great stuff.

The Truck part in T3 was cool, but it relied on a lot of CGI, which bothers me. That same sequence could have been done in the 80's using real stuff and looked just as well.

Yeah, I debated between T1 and T2, but the original gets bonus points for being low budget.

My favorite has to be T2, the chase scene in the LA River, the most intense I've ever seen, and almost as good in T3 with the Wide truck and tanker scene. Just my 2 cents.
