Andrew Gestalt at Listverse posted his choices for the 10 Best Fight Scenes in Movies<\/a>.  Choosing the best movie fight scenes is an interesting task. Gestalt’s choices are hard to argue against.  With that said here are my thoughts on some of them…<\/p>\n

Rocky vs Apollo (from Rocky<\/em>)<\/strong>:  Gestalt placed Rocky’s first fight against Apollo in the #2 spot.  He choose it for emotional reasons (Rocky loses the fight but achieved his goal) as much as the fight itself being awesome.  There’s no doubt that a fight scene from the Rocky<\/em> series deserves to be listed as an All-Time Best Movie Fight<\/em>, but is THAT the fight you would have chosen?<\/p>\n

Sly probably would go with Rocky’s battle against Drago.  I’ve always loved Rocky’s return fight against Clubber.  The Rocky \/ Apollo rematch would be hard to argue against.  <\/p>\n

Lee vs Han (from Enter the Dragon<\/em>)<\/strong>:  is another excellent choice, but it is not the Enter the Dragon<\/em> fight that I would have picked.  I would have gone with Lee’s fight with the guards.  As Han himself said, “The battle with the guards was magnificent.”  Who can argue with that?<\/p>\n

John Wick vs Too Many To Name (John Wick 1 -3<\/em>)<\/strong>:  Agreed… but which fight from the Wick franchise is the best?  I love ’em all.<\/p>\n

#1 vs Shack (Emperor of the North<\/em>)<\/strong>: Lee Marvin vs Ernest Borgnine.  This fight didn’t make Gestalt’s list but should have.<\/p>\n

Indiana Jones vs German Soldier (Raiders of the Lost Ark<\/em>)<\/strong>: Tell me a more memorable fight scene.  I’ll wait.  ; )<\/p>\n
