These are ten moments that I will
remember the most from 2016 movies. This doesn’t mean that this list is made up entirely
of good moments or just my
favorite moments. Bad or hilariously
ridiculous moments can be as much effectively memorable as the positive ones (though the word “memorable” often refers to something positive).
Honorable mentions: Deadpool’s opening sequence; “I Am Moana”
scene in Moana; Batman and Batgirl’s shocking
sex scene in The Killing Joke; “Dormammu,
I’ve come to bargain” scene in Doctor Strange; Jackie Chan sings “Rolling in the Deep” in Skiptrace; The Bronze’s absurd,
acrobatic sex scene; the raunchy culmination of Sausage Party
10.)
Now You See Me 2’s intricate chip heist scene. Where the Four
Horsemen steals a data-mining chip, doing so in full light of security guards, by
hiding it in a playing card and passing it among themselves.
9.)
Elephant scene in The Brothers Grimsby. Ugh.
8.)
Wonder Woman, in full costume
for the first time, joining Batman and Superman in their battle against
Doomsday.
Batman v Superman may not be a great movie, but seeing DC’s Big
Three together on the big screen brought a pleasant chill down my spine. Wonder Woman’s catchy theme, and the fact
that the little girl beside me in the theater when I watched it (it was packed)
uttered excitedly, “Si Darna!” when she
appeared, made the scene more unforgettable for me.
7.)
X-Men: Apocalypse’s anticipated Quicksilver scene, where he saves everyone
from the exploding X-Mansion.
6.)
This dialogue from Lego DC Comics Superheroes: Justice League:Cosmic Clash:
Cyborg: “Good luck.”
Batman: “I don’t believe in luck.”
Cyborg: “What do you believe in?”
Batman: “Batman!”
5.)
The final minutes of Your Name. Honestly the most white-knuckled, holding-breath emotional
experience I’ve ever had from a film in 2016.
4.)

| Not this one. |
That Darth Vader scene in Rogue One near the end. If you have seen the movie, you
know what I’m referring to.
3.)
The glorious, fist-pumping “Sabotage”
sequence in Star Trek Beyond.
2.)
Enchantress’ cool transformation
to her initial appearance…
… and her ridiculous
dancing in Suicide Squad. Still makes me laugh, no matter how many times I’ve seen it already.

1.)
The epic airport battle in Captain America: Civil War.
