The Avengers Assemble scene was probably the best thing I've seen in cinema in decades. It's literally my 12 year nerd dreams coming true on a movie screen and I never thought that would even be possible.

[@tylergoodman3560]

When Thanos did the snap, it showed what most movies didn't: It showed the heroes lose, and the villain ultimately won. 🎉

[@davidchism6081]

Without Thanos winning, we wouldn't have gotten the MCU at that point assemble to defeat Thanos. I think that the snap and portals should switch places on the list.

[@DJGamingSmash]

Watchmen did it first tbh.

[@xyzharrishuang]

@@davidchism6081 WatchMojo ranks the snap higher right

[@CandiceVidito]

Obi Wan: It's over Anakin I have the high ground! Anakin: You underestimate my power!

[@Muzan_Kibutsuji-900]

Why was that not in the list

[@drgn_tmr]

Obi-wan: Don’t try it.

[@Muzan_Kibutsuji-900]

@@drgn_tmr *Jumps* ahhhhh!

[@johnstjohn1987]

That 360 Spin around the Avengers will forever be iconic.

[@chelseacanales8763]

Heath Ledger’s Joker in The Dark Knight still gives me goosebumps. He nailed the Joker to the tee.

[@זהבההלברשטט]

lets be honest, we all knew the interrogation would be number 1. its crazy how no matter how much ledger's performance is praised, it still seems underrated

[@olleselin]

The portal scene of "Endgame" is just so damn powerful! Still remember it giving me goosebumps of seeing in theatres 5 years ago.....

[@MaxModded]

Watching Mad Max Fury Road is like watching a 2-hour movie trailer only composed of the best parts of the movie. Amazing!

[@dam185]

Lol “Is that everyone?”? Should have been ”Avengers Assemble!” Finally being said after almost a decade of it being teased!!! Cmon Watchmojo!

[@captainhaddock6435]

A shame that "Daddy" at the end of Logan isn't included in this list

[@rubygracemoseley8144]

I was just thinking that there better be some Lord of the Rings moments on the list and then number 3 came on!

[@Chewygaming717]

How to Train Upur Dragon first flight scene wayyyy more iconic and rememberable than some of these

[@vidyagupta1299]

Avengers assemble at 20, you really don't know the value of that one scene

[@whoknows28]

How can it not be THE DARK KNIGHT?…. You live forever in our hearts Heath

[@rainbowrunner1550]

I got another one: - Spider-Man: No Way Home Three generations of Spider-Man team up. As amazing as the Avengers assembling was, it was just as much of a dream come true to see Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield return. Who doesn't love them chatting with Tom Holland, or seeing all three of them working effectively to cure the villains?

[@KOsully12]

This list is all over the place

[@herodaresfire4512]

Surely you remember " You're tearing me apart Lisa."

[@GauntletBProductions]

Godzilla Vs Kong. A Rematch 60 years in the making that came at a time when we needed something to give our spirits a boost & brought movie goers back to the theaters during a horrible Pandemic that predominantly had everyone grounded for months on end

[@eugeniapatroncosta920]

Gladiator, The Lord of the Rings: the Two Towers, Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol, Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone and The Dark Knight are my favourites.

[@SamuelMcAlpin-ft3uu]

Kept waiting for it, but it never came… “Hello, Mr. Hindle…Or as they called you around the hospital…ZEPP.”

[@colleenross8752]

Game Over!

[@Gor85]

So many great moments!😁This is Sparta! Are you not entertained? Avengers! Assembl,You're a The Snap, Trinity test,You're a wizad Harry,Crazy 88.The Battle of Helm's Deep(totally epic!). Batman interrogating Joker is epic! Deserving number 1. Jokes really sees him as kindred spirit. He always does. No matter what he does and says. They are from the same cloth like you said. Excellent video!😁

[@nefelichristogoula316]

I was waiting for "And I am Iron Man".

[@j3ss199]

i would argue that the scene between Anakin and Obi wan should be at least top 15 moments with the cinematography, the intense emotions and the perfect choreography

[@stephaniehickey4103]

As someone with Cerebral Palsy, I has one of my top ten laughs at that line in the Wolf of Wall Street

[@dreamguardian8320]

I would also add these: Giant Joi hologram from Blade Runner: 2049. It's so beautiful, kind of haunting, and even sad no matter how you interpret the context. Let It Go from Frozen The dancing scene from La La Land Upside down kiss from Spider-Man & The kissing in the rain from The Notebook Pirates of the Caribbean, though which scene should be on the list is debatable.

[@petrstepan1714]

With Wonder Woman, you're reaching... but Barbie is another level of a stretch.

[@turtlesnail9824]

I can kinda see Wonder Woman, I remember that trench scene being talked about a lot in 2017. Barbie tho, nope

[@manueld5253]

How’s “this is sparta” in 30th Place??

[@Cinezillaaa]

The Courtyard Apocalypse scene in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2 should be on that list.

[@christophermerlot3366]

Hallway fight in Oldboy.

[@barbarafreitas4976]

I would pick another scene from the Lord of the rings franchise, from the third movie: when Rohan’s army arrives at the battle in front of Minas Tirith and the king yells “death” and everyone from his army replies it. It gives me the goosebumps till today.

[@waittillfamewtf2385]

The Comet's Impact "Your Name" (2016)

[@randrews103]

Endgame final battle is number 1. 22 movies leading up to that final moment was epic. I will never forget seeing that in theaters opening night.

[@SuperRangerGuy1]

Some of the movies on this list I had no interested in watching them are the following: 29, 28, 27, 26, 24, 22, 21, 19, 18, 17, 16, 15, 13, 12, 10, 09, 08, 07, 06, 05, 04, 03, & 02

[@DanFarrell98]

We're not even a quater of the way through and it's fair to say film's 2nd century is pretty damn good

[@williamsummerson1204]

The Joker will always be the best part and character in the dark knight. R.I.P Heath Ledger.🙏

[@okanalkan1261]

“Assemble!” should be louder.

[@asrealasitgets7798]

Heck yeah that Dark Knight I agree R.I.P Heath Ledger

[@tommychen8946]

As much as I love Jamie Lee Curtis the actress, Best Supporting Actress should have gone to Stephanie Hsu. She killed it!

[@nathangrund7216]

Mama's got to go to work Argyle, and possibly the shamanic drug fueled trip, ensuing montage and complete revenge for the protagonist.

[@StevenSmith-yj6xq]

They should have included the beach scene from the film Saving Private Ryan as this was a defining scene showing us how bad the war really was

[@1rickopotamus]

Revenge of the sith is a great fucking movie people are crazy to hate on the prequels

[@MarkLaw13]

Cartoons animation and anime need to get their own video if they haven't already.

[@RoughWalkers]

Nah some of us grew up

[@WrenFaithBridger]

Children of Men ambush scene: car surrounded by enemies, all trying to kill the only pregnant woman on earth; incredible, almost impossible cinematography, heart-breaking suspense, devastating results. Kill Bill 88: A woman sword-fighting one or two people at a time while the other 86 stand around wiggling and dancing, cinematography that changes from b&w to color for no real reason, blood that looks fake. And yet, Kill Bill made the list and Children of Men didn't. Go figure.

[@markkuijpers3818]

I really don't want to appropriate anything, but that Barbie speech broke me. I am a man. I really hope no one takes this post as confrontational or bait or something, it just struck a cord and serves as a reminder that maybe some messages are universal. The struggle is real. For most everyone

[@guus5504]

It was a really bad and forced speech, it didnt feel natural. Cant believe it is on this list.

[@vidyagupta1299]

Interstellar DOCKING SCENE

[@harveyfarrugia5164]

Aye you lot have slept massively on Star Wars, should of been top 10

Yea, Children of Men. You forgot that amazing scene. I don't think you guys take much time on these lists. Battle of Helms Deep was good, not defining. 'For Frodo' or 'What are you waiting for' is better... even the assembling of the Fellowship was better. Ugh! La La Land at the Planetarium is another good one. Way too many silly action movies. You guys!
