Hmmm making me think here
Great thread from The Dawg! Ill give my top 5 AND as a bonus my fave moment from each

1) Gladiator- TIE him killing the Emporer at end AND when he takes his mask off to reveal
Himself when thought dead
2) Last Samurai- when TC walks out of the house wearing the armour from the samurai
He killed earlier in the movie
3) Troy- Hector! Hector! The fight between Achilles and Hector
4) Braveheart- Freeedooommmmmmmm.....duh!
5) Rocky IV- obviously knocking out Drago.

Howdy,

Shockingly, I’ve never even seen it. I chose the name because I have a fully developed ego-integrity WITH well defined boundaries.

Take care,

I could be wrong, as there are so many great movies mentioned here, but I believe these two icons are missing:

- There Will Be Blood
- Wall Street
