Okay, give me either or both your favourite shootout and fight scene in books, films, videogames (only cutscenes though) TV etc.
My shootout would have to be this: http://youtu.be/aG8J3_4mKUM
I know it's not technically a shootout, but it contains guns being shot and I'm going to count it, because it's my thread, so suck it. Watch the entire thing, it's one long shot, and it's absolutely incredible how they did it.

My favourite fight scene would either be this: http://youtu.be/uLt7lXDCHQ0

or this: http://youtu.be/1ozdCJJ6osg (It IS realistic!)

This is a favourite - great fight choreography and pacing, perfectly chosen music and really well shot - and no shaky cam or hyperactive rapid editing, thankfully.


And this - not only a great action scene, but perhaps my all time favourite special effects sequence.

This scene was freakin' awesome when I first saw it... in Japanese of course. The funniest bit being when Batou just calm-as-you-like jumps down a hundred storeys...

Enzo Matrix vs Megabyte near the end of Reboot Season 3 was the most epic thing ever:

I posted it once and I'll post it again.


Still one of if not the best animated fight sequence ever. Too bad she still loses in the end.

Eh, why not add the best animated fight scene I ever saw where every anime is nothing in comparison:

Oh, time to bust out the DC Animated Movies it seems...

I love DBZ, but vicious fistfights beat ten hour charge up blasts any day.

hated the film, loved that moment though.
The first time I saw him headshot the dude with the revolver, lift him in the air by the bullethole, and used him as a human shield, I burst out laughing. I agree, pretty bad movie, but it did have its badass moments... namely the sniper scene at the very end. The whole "What the fuck have you done today?" quote still sticks with me.

I kind of suprise that this didn't get mention yet-
Well ok I was referring to the TV version (the film is still good bu I haven't fully seen it yet) so the film will do.

Also this got both shootout and fight scene!


It shows Minato is a excellent thinker, fighter and has an awesome themetune when he lay the smackdown against Tobi/ Mandara.

YES.

Kinda missed the bit before the beginning of the video, where she realises her mother is in the Eva and she kept saying "I don't wanna die..."

Awesome though.

OT: I love the whole final battle of Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, unfortunately I can't find the video for the whole thing...

Awesome though.
It's also that every other EVA battle in the series has involved guns or some deus ex machina super power. Which is cool on it's own, but I just love the "hands on" approach to this battle in particular; Asuka ***** slapping and karate kicking jet fighters, crushing the skulls of the mass-produced EVA's and smashing her fist through their rib cages.

It's so wonderfully fucking brutal. =)
