11Epic film scenes that made me go whoa. No real order. Scenes that make me cry, laugh or my draw drop at the pure action.

1) Bourne at Waterloo - After destroying everyone Noah Vosen quote topped it off "Jesus Chrsit, that's Jason Bourne" could hear the cinema gasp. Perhaps the best scene ever put to film.

2) Transformers 1 - The desert Scorpion scene with the Predators, A-10s and C-130's opening up. Remember being in the cinema in that scene and thinking OMFG what am I watching?

3) Lilja-4-Ever - Scene with her neighbourhood friends who rape her. Left me upset as nothing else I've ever seen.

4) After Lucia - Cake eating scene. I've never had a literal angry reaction at anything I've ever seen on screen. Never want to see it again.

5) Bourne in the Moroccan bathroom - Destroying someone with a towel. Fucking epic.

6) Battleship - The old timers release the anchor, AC/DC playing, going off to fight aliens. Epic.

7) Rust and Bone - Where the Stéphanie dances with her Whales in the tank after the accident.

8) Crossing Over - Where Alice Braga's Character is found dumped in the desert by coyotes and it's just business as ususal.

9) The Other Guys - Tuna vs Lion. Never laughed so hard at the cinema, even more awkward since it was a pretty empty cinema.

10) Nick and Norah's infinite play list - The scene where the friend says it's not about sex, or fucking. "Look, other bands, they want to make it about sex or pain, but you know, The Beatles, they had it all figured out, okay? "I Want to Hold Your Hand." The first single. It's effing brilliant, right?... That's what everybody wants, Nicky. They don't want a twenty-four-hour hump sesh, they don't want to be married to you for a hundred years. They just want to hold your hand."

11) Elysium - Kruger kidnapping Frey and threading her child. Creepy as hell. Brilliant performance by both Kruger being the psychopath and Frey acting as a protective mother.

12) The Shield (TV Show) - Last episode ever, the final scene. The best acting I've ever witnessed.

13) Rambo - Final scene - 50 cal opening up on tyrants.

14) Dark Angel - This is one of the best lines I've ever heard on TV full stop. It was the dramatic gesture, the sound of the gun, the lack of music. When re-watching I was still drawn into it and shocked:  "X5/599. I've got a heart for you" GUNSHOT.

15) Bad Santa - Fuck me Santa!
