The scene in Breaking Bad where Walter tells Skyler about what he's capable of is iconic. He clearly states that he is someone to be feared and has no intention of being a victim.

Baahubali and Devasena's arrow fight scene from Baahubali: The Conclusion is an epic scene for me.

For me it is,"I'm the king of the world!" - from "Titanic" (1997). Where Leonardo DiCaprio's character stands on the bow of the Titanic and spreads his arms, has become an enduring symbol of romance and adventure.

The scene in Sense8 when they were all singing along to what's up by 4 non blondes. 8 different individuals from different part of the world, connecting to one song. It was powerful. Gave me goosebumps.

The final scene in 'The Godfather' where Michael Corleone executes his enemies during his child's baptism is an iconic moment in cinema. Directed by Francis Ford Coppola, this sequence brilliantly captures the conflict between power and family within the Corleone saga. The juxtaposition of the solemn baptism and the brutal violence is both compelling and haunting. It showcases Michael's transformation from a reluctant participant in the family business to a ruthless leader. This visually striking scene delves into themes of loyalty, revenge, and the tragic consequences of pursuing power. Its impact on audiences remains timeless, making it a memorable and significant moment in film history.

The "I am your father" revelation in "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" remains an iconic cinematic moment. It transcends the screen, leaving an indelible mark on pop culture and storytelling.

I am unsure if anyone here has seen the new Wonka movie but this one hit the nostalgia part of my brain hard. The most emotionally triggering part was when Wonka finally sang "Pure Imagination". The musical aspects of this movie were, in my opinion, the most memorable and fun parts of the film.

The recent Wonka was excellent. Timothy singing Pure Imagination was simply beautiful. I feel like that movie won me over as a fan of him more than any other.

Iconic moments in film are plentiful, but the "I'm king of the world!" scene from "Titanic" stands out. Leonardo DiCaprio's delivery and the grandeur of the moment became a cultural touchstone, epitomizing the epic romance of the film.
