What are Your Choices for the Best Most Memorable Moments and Scenes in all of Cinema ?

Only seen the film once but i've never forgotten the intro to Denis Villeneuve's Incendies with Radiohead's You and whose army? playing and the harrowing bus scene. It's a great film.
 
Dark City The view of the city with the ring of ocean in outer space.
 
The first reveal of the titular spaceship Event Horizon - one of those “Oh, this is not going to end well” moments...

Then there's the closing scene in that film.

Laurel and Hardy, The Piano move was hilarious. It's a shame you don't see the old B&W movies on TV too often. They were a staple of the 6 weeks holiday for me growing up.

There is a film on YouTube showing those steps now. The area hasn’t faired well.
 
The scene in Blade Runner when Deckard first goes to the Tyrell Building.... The visual is amazing and the soundscape incredible.
 
Saw this incredible scene the other day in The Haunting of Bly Manor ... that kid ...

 
For lingering trauma, a generation of filmgoers must surely wince at the words "Is it safe?" in Marathon Man.

Also, the endings of The Wicker Man and The Stepford Wives, which have a similar function to each other.
 
The scene in Funny Bones when Jack (Lee Evans) is showing his newly-found brother (Oliver Platt) how to do a certain trick in a circus act. The scene switches between the present and a flashback where he's doing the same trick but ends up killing someone. He goes a bit overboard in the present scene and then breaks down and you almost think he's killed his brother in the same way, until his brother gets up. Lee Evans is flipping brilliant in that scene. In the whole film he's brilliant. My favourite film. So many great scenes. This one's also good:

 
Logan's Run several scenes in that one . The ice where Box Cyborg shows Logan and Jessica how he froze and stood previous runners and planned the same fate for them. The computer interrogation scene where you have Logan and his surrogates telling the city's main computer that Sanctuary doesn't exist . The computer doesn't accept this and has a nevdioud breakdown which begins the destruction of the City of Domes.

Eldon Tyrell's death at the hands of Roy Batty. We see almost the entire sequence through the face of Rutger Hauer and it is still one of the most difficult scenes to watch in all of cinema.

He got his skull Crushed . Yes thetas very hard scene to watch .

Tyrell should have lied to him and told him he could extend his life . Given the danger , that's exactly what I would have done.
