Some movie scenes are so iconic, they should honestly be included in every school's core history curriculum.
So when Redditor AurulentAvenger asked users, "What is the most epic moment in the history of cinema?" I decided to take some notes.
1. "When everything is suddenly in color in The Wizard of Oz.”
3. "The scene where you're introduced to the dinosaurs in Jurassic Park."
4. "The hallway scene at the mall where Arnold says 'Get down' in Terminator 2: Judgment Day."
5. "When Andy crawls out of the sewage pipe and stands in the rain after escaping prison in The Shawshank Redemption."
6. "The graveyard scene in The Good, the Bad and the Ugly."
7. "The scene where Juror #3 has a breakdown, leading to his change of vote in 12 Angry Men."
8. "The scene at the end of Schindler's List where Oskar realizes that he could've saved more Jews, and Itzhak Stern and others tell him 'Whoever saves one life, saves the world entire.'"
9. "The auto-destruct sequence in Alien."
10. "That scene when all of the elevators open in Cabin in the Woods."
11. "The opening scene of Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope."
12. "The final scene of Fight Club, when 'Where Is My Mind' by the Pixies starts playing."
