Top 10 Most Epic Scenes in Movie History!

A personal collection of scenes I consider to be the greatest cinematic moments that defined EPIC.

In no particular order.

Star Wars- A New Hope Opening Scene.
This ladies and gents was how George Lucas changed not only Hollywood, not only how movie were made, but Human Culture as a whole. Just this one epic shot. After this the World was never the same again.







Empire Strikes Back Asteroid Chase- Before CGI, Before Disney this was something truly epic from George Lucas.



Return of the Jedi- Speeder bike chase
Probably the fastest chase scene in cinema history! Combination of Star Wars with trees and speeder bikes and blasters and lightsabers... oh just watch it for FFS.



Jurassic Park T-rex Attack
 This was the moment that CGI truly came on to center stage. Combined with Spielberg's Godlikeness and incredible filmmaking skills this was something you will never forget.


Raiders of the Lost Ark Truck Chase
this has it all- Naziz, deserts, trucks, epic stunts, more stunts and Indiana Jones. Probably the greatest earthbound chase scene ever.


Raiders of the Lost Ark Opening Scene
 Opening scene with ancient temples, booby traps runaway boulders. This set the stage for Indiana Jones to conquer the world- right off the bat.


Temple of Doom Mine cart chase
combination of real sets and miniatures and effects so well done that you don't which is which make this something truly extraordinary.


Ben Hur Chariot Race
The Most Epic Scene from the Most Epic Movie.


Aliens- Final battle with the Queen.
Stan Winston and Jim Cameron truly outdid themselves with this final battle. Once you see it you will never ever forget. 'Get away from her you bitch'.


The Matrix Reloaded- Freeway chase
An incredible setting allows for some of the most incredible scenes imaginable all the while going full speed on a highway
