During the first round of The Best Movie Scene Tournament, please vote for up to six movie scenes you would like to move onto the next round. The top six movie scenes will be moving on. Keep in mind that the percentage of the vote a given movie scene receives will determine its standing going forward.

IMPORTANT! Please do not simply vote on name recognition (or lack thereof) alone. Please do watch each nomination and then make your choice. Even if you think you know a movie scene well, it's still worth watching for a refresher.

Please remember that his tournament is for Best Scene, not Best Movie.
It's important to therefore judge each nomination on its individual merits and NOT by the entire movie.

The poll will run for seven days. Discussion is greatly encouraged!

The nominees are:


The Kissing scene - We're the Millers (2013)

The baptism scene from Godfather needs to make it far, far into this tournament. Semi-Finals at least.

It's one of the top 10 best scenes of all-time. Period.

I agree. Unfortunately, out of context, that scene might not do much for people.

Perhaps you're right. But even on its own it's such a funny scene.

Yeah, I love that line!

Honestly, I've shown/recommended this film to at least 6 people and every single one of them came away happy.
