For me, it has to be this, the final scene from Stanley Kubrick's "Paths Of Glory".

The final showdown in “Kelly’s Heroes”.

The last “two dollars” bit that leads into the ski race in “Better Off Dead”.

When Bond chases the parkour guy at the beginning of “Casino Royale”.

The Day of the Dead parade that opens “Spectre”.

The Match Cut and Ali’s Well scenes from “Lawrence of Arabia”. Most beautiful cinematography ever, IMO.

That Casino Royale scene might be in my personal top five. After having drifted away from Bond since the last one I had really enjoyed - that would be The Living Daylights - while watching this Madagascar parkour I felt the spark rekindle completely.

EDIT: #1 in my old classics bucket list is to someday watch Lawrence Of Arabia on the big screen. I think the restoration and remaster was overseen by Martin Scorsese.
