    Default What do you think are the most iconic movie scenes of all time

    There are certain scenes from movies that have become so famous and iconic everyone recognizes them whether they've actually seen the movie it's from. There are a lot of them but what instantly comes to mind when you think iconic movie scene?

    Personally I think of the "I could of been a contender" scene from On the Waterfront is the most iconic, followed by

    The Rocky training montage

    E.T. and Elliot on the flying bike going past the moon

    "No I am your Father" the Empire Strikes Back

    The shower scene from Psycho

    What are your most iconic movie scenes?

    The final countdown and score to the Death Star blowing up, though let's be fair, nigh on every scene in the original trilogy is iconic.

    Indy shooting the swordsman in Raiders.

    The T-Rex emerging from her cage and roars loudly in Jurassic Park.

    The Delorean hitting 88 mph and leaving flaming skid marks while the license plate spins on the floor.

    Since Ghostbusters has been getting more attention lately, I'd point out Mr. Stay-Puft slowly walking towards the camera while taxi cabs crash and people are trying frantically to escape in terror.

    Speaking of, I remember the same lines when Aunt Cass, a character in Big Hero 6, just when I saw it yesterday, was watching the television with their cat. Was wondering was it Frankenstein she was watching.

    And, to chip in my personal bit, the ending to Casablanca.
