My all time favorites....
.... Opening shot in Le Grand Blue
.... Kevin Spacey turning to be Kaiser Soze' when he leaves the police station and stops limping (The Usual Suspects)
... final shot in The English Patient before the plane crashes...
....Never Go Full Retard monologue in Tropic Thunder
Harrison Ford in a sword fight during "Raider's of the Lost Ark".

Sword fight is at the end of the clip. On a trivia note, Ford was sick on the day of the shoot and felt like crap. The actual sword fight was filmed in one take.
Patton "reincarnation scene" when he says "I was here" when standing amid ancient Libyan ruins and recounting a 2,000 year old battle between the Carthaginians and Romans.
Or, Doc Holiday in Tombstone when he drags himself out of his tuberculosis-ridden condition to kill Johnny Ringo before Ringo can kill Wyatt Earp.

There are many great scenes here, and a few head scratchers.
I'm going with "6th sense" where Bruce Willis realizes he's actually dead
2001 A Space Odyssey:
"Open the pod bay doors Hal"
Bonnie and Clyde:
Final police ambush, Faye Dunaway and Warren Beatty give each other one last loving glance before they are shredded by bullets.

- final scene of The Usual Suspects... no details since is a huge spoiler... but those who watched this movie (hopefully nearly everyone...) will know what i mean.
- final scene of American Beauty... beautiful.
- "Silencio"! from Mulholland Dr
- Three billboards... has some powerful scenes.

You can probably add some Eastwood scenes with probably Unforgiven bar scene at the top.
Jaws has some great scenes like Quint talking about the being on the U.S.S. Indianapolis and the chief blowing up the shark. Like many of those listed in this thread, they were much more powerful on the big screen.
In terms of comedy, I like Will Farrell's cameo in "Wedding Crashers".
My apologies Hobby. I started my post, got sidetracked, and you snuck it in without my knowing.
I agree with you.

I was liking a Sergio Leone shootout scene. Either the one from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly or Once Upon a Time in the West.
For sports movies:
Hoosiers- When Jimmy says I play, coach stays. He goes, I go.
Major League- When wild thing comes out of the bullpen and walks to the mound against the Yankees.
Loved those scenes since I was a kid.
Surly Joe's death in Ballad of Buster Scruggs
Best?
When the credits rolled after viewing ‘The Color Purple’ .
I missed Doc Gooden pitch a gem that night.
Reading through these was a great way to remember so many good movies.
I always liked the scene in Planes,Trains and Automobiles with John Candy and Steve Martin traveling on the wrong side of the highway.
