1. Edward Scissorhands (1990)
1. Ice sculpture moment


2. Goodbye scene


The whole movie was so beautiful but damn sad. One of the most important movies in my life. I've seen this movie about million times and it still gives me the chills at the end.

2. Fight Club (1999)
Ending scene where Marla and the Narrator are holding hands while the buildings start to crumble.

When "Where is my mind?" started, I got the chills. I get them everytime at the very end of the movie. The song and the scene fit together just perfect.

10. Rear Window (1954)
When Thorwald realises that someone has been watching him and enters the apartment of Jeff

Another very creepy and actually scary Hitchcock movie moment.

12. Reindeerspotting - Escape from Santaland (2010)
When Jani falls from "the balcony" down to the street

My heart popped into my throat when i was watching the scene. He's so high on drugs and the camera is just filming some other guy and suddenly Jani falls to the street in the background.

13. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2009)
Rape scene

14. Popular Music (2004)
Scene where Niila and Johan beat up their father

Now that i've read the book, seen the movie and even seen the theater version, I can say that I think this was an important scene. The best version of it I saw in the theater. I just think there is something about that scene that gives the whole story darker kind of side.

15. Let the Right One In (2008)
When Eli and Oskar meet first time

The movie is full of powerful scenes. But I decided to pick only one of them to put here. Let the Right One In is such a great movie. It deals with important things but has that fantasy effect.

28. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the Kin... (2003)
Aragorn's Speech

Aragorn is THE MAN. Damn good scene.
drugs's rating:



WORK IN PROGRESS

To me, the most powerful scenes i've seen in movies so far.

Powerful scene to me is a scene that has some kind of strong effect on you. It might make you really sad, or really happy. Or even confused as hell.

This is sort of a advanced version of the most influential movies
