Best Movie Fight Scenes

[slashgirl]

The fight scenes between Hugh Grant & Colin Firth in Bridget Jones were hilarious, IMO.

I can't help it - the street fight scene in Rocky V between Rocky and Tommy Gun still gets me all hyped up!

[preciosa]

The fight scene in the courtyard in Hero when Jet Li went to meet the would be assassin of the King. The swordplay and the music were simply breathtaking.

[twitches]

I love it when Ed Norton's character fights himself in his boss's office in Fight Club.

Drat! Slashgirl beat me to the Grant/Firth goodness in BJD. *

I love the final sword fight in Rob Roy. Watching Liam Neeson deal with that disgusting pig of a debauched aristocrat played with memorable relish by Tim Roth made the movie for me.

I haven't watched it in a long time because I'm afraid I've built it up in my head. What if I discover it's unforgivably cheese-tastic in the re-watching? No, I think I'll continue to preserve it in its perfection in my memory.


*I ended my 5-year lurking career today, so I apologize for the lack of bolding on names and movie titles. I've looked around the site for instructions and messed with the buttons (didn't work if the preview is accurate), but I've had no luck. Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. I feel like a yokel: an unbolded, technotarded yokel.

Hey foxy, congratulations for coming out of lurkerdom!

When you post, you get a pile of little buttons above your typing space. Put your cursor over them and it'll show you what they do. Click on something, for instance, the B for bold, and you'll see [ b]TEXT[/b ] (only without spaces) appear. Replace the 'TEXT' bit with whatever you want bolded. Good luck!

And getting back on topic, the fight between Wolverine and the female mutant who was just like him (can't recall her name, sorry), had me on the edge of my seat. His face when it sinks in that he's really going to have to work at this! And the really icky bit when she's stabbing him through that grill. I felt sorry for her in the end though, as I always figured that the mind control drug wore off just as he won the fight.

Spoilered just in case.

C'mon you guys, how about the final fight scene between Jackie Chan versus his real-life bodyguard in Drunken Master 2.

Lady Deathstrike.

Speaking of X-Men fight scenes, the one between Wolverine & Mystique in the first one was pretty cool.

Lady Deathstrike! That was it. Thanks, Slashgirl! I was thinking 'Lady Nightcrawler' and I knew I had it wrong as Alan Cummings is no lady.

Speaking of X-Men fight scenes, the one between Wolverine & Mystique in the first one was pretty cool.

I love Mystique, she's so sarcastic. And yeah, I love that fight scene too. Maybe it's just fight scenes involving Wolverine that I love?

Loved the fight scenes in The Rundown, espeically the one in the club & the one with The Rock Vs. The Rebels in the jungle.
