I wouldn't even entertain debating another scene. Phoebe in Fast Times is a strong 2nd though.

Came to post Rudy.

Off to watch fast times.

I'm gonna say the Rocky movies, they are kind of slow, but all of the have a good underdog story, and the fight scenes are bad ass.. This is my favorite scene from rocky 2.

^That is one of my favorite scenes and I always cry when I see it. lol.

But I came to post this scene from the same movie:

Rocky 2 was a great sequel. Even though it was basically a repeat of the first one, the emotional stuff was very different.

This whole movie is both overwhelmingly heartbreaking and uplifting at the same time. It's completely unique and magical.

The carrying the bobsled over the line scene in Cool Runnings is right up there for me.
