What are some of your favorite movie scenes?

The title says it all. What are some of your favorite movie scenes? Also, it would be nice if you could post a Youtube video of that particular scene.

One of my favorite movie scenes ever is the scene from Forrest Gump where Jenny is high on cocaine and looks like she is about to jump off a balcony. The song Free Bird that is playing in the background adds a nice touch to the scene as well.

and of course the "why so serious" one

This devastated me when I was a kid, especially considering I didn't know if there would be another movie.

FOR ALL OF THESE SCENES VIEWER DISCRETION IS ADVISED!

My all time favorite scene in any movie ever. It was so moving and shocking and really was just perfectly done.

Also this scene and any other scene from this movie

somehow I like the irony of the scene in CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, when the French guy and his translator are explaining that these people have been invited, that they have come to a place they have been told will endanger their lives. Why?

The military guy says, 'Well, because someone is trying to subvert this whole thing, by sending in cultists and fanatics and Christ knows what all . . '

Here's a few I like, more to come soon hopefully:

Bruce Lee vs. A School of Japanese Students, from Fist of Fury. I admit I never really was a fan, but this scene kicked ass. Especially since it's from the guy who's more of a "god" than Chuck Norris...

"The City of Light," from the Brave Little Toaster. Perhaps the only light-hearted song to a fairly dark, depressing, and somewhat scary film by Disney...

"106 miles to Chicago" from the Blues Brothers
I always say this line right before my family and I head off to G-fest every year...

Moon: The scene in Moon where Sam Bell proves to himself that he is a clone(by calling home) and his memories are implants, that everyone he ever cared for never knew him, and never will. It's the most depressing scene in any movie I've ever seen.

Moon:
The scene in Moon where Sam is first told by his robot that he is a clone. This comes prior to the scene I put up above.

Sunshine:
The scene in Sunshine when Captain Kaneda sacrifices himself to fix a solar reflector panel on the Icarus II as a solar flare approaches the ship.

Sunshine:
Astrophysicist Robert Capa jettisons the payload towards the sun and jumps from a ship to the bomb, intending to use it to reignite the sun, which had been dying. He's the last person alive, and if he messes up, humanity might as well be doomed, so he's really anxious to do everything right.
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFnn6iRcfEc&feature=related[/youtube]
Sunshine:
Capa set's off the bomb right as the thing collides with the sun. He disintegrates from both the bomb(the sparklies means it's activated) and the suns heat, but in a sort of out of body experience, the sun stops approaching, and Capa touches the surface.

A few days ago I saw the ED 209 demonstration scence from Robocop for the first time. Horrific and hilarious at the same time.
I won't post it here, but it's on YouTube if you're interested.

I recently watched Kill Bill again, and this scene is my favorite in the movie. Larry Bishop just cracks me up in this scene:
