Oedo 808 Posted May 28, 2010 Report Share Posted May 28, 2010 I was going to put these in the fight thread but I think gun fights are in a category of their own and shouldn't be lumped in with sword/fist fights.Two of my favourites are both from Westerns, the final shoot out in Unforgiven is a classic as is the finale of The Wild Bunch.Any other favourite shoot outs/gun fights?

When Emilio Estevez comes out of the house in that old chest through the window and then shoots that cunt Murphy between the eyes. That whole shoot out is epic. The Young Guns movies are fucking brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By no means the best film but that scene is fantastic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le Stu Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 I really liked the sniper scene from The Hurt Locker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ca_gere Posted May 29, 2010 Report Share Posted May 29, 2010 The climax to Copland is outstanding. It's the audio that makes it. Stallone hasn't been in anything else that 'cinematic'.YouTube - Sylvester Stallone Cop Land Shoot Out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobboTheRod Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Agree with Rob Knight...the final shootout in the Unforgiven is WANKTASTIC...Other shootouts likely to give me a pinger are:Heat (bank job gone tits)3:10 to YumaWyatt Earp (OK Coral)Proof of Life (the rescue attempt......"Downtown 1 this is Uptown 1, rodger, going loud"......LOVE IT!)Inglorious Bastards (the bar scene)Black Hawk Dawn (when Gordon & Shughart go in to rescue Mike Durant)Blood Diamond Well, anyway there's heaps more.....

Monster Zero Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Lots of good ones mentioned so far, I'll add Antonio Banderas in the bar scene in 'Desperado' to the sound of Link Wray performing 'Jack the Ripper'. Actually the end of that is pretty awesome as well. In fact the whole film is amazing, need to dig it out it's been a while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gypsum_Fantastic Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 The Good the Bad and the Ugly!??! love it, one of my favourite films ever. i like the gun fight between John Cusack and Dan Aykroyd but more for the dialouge Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gooch_Taylor Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I'm definitely agreeing with 3:10 To Yuma, Heat, Copland and Equilibrium. Shoot 'em Up is just a farce from beginning to end, but I like it I actually really like Shooter for decent shoot-out scenes as well... and Face/Off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
