87. Redford bleeds:The Natural (1984): Hollywood is often criticized for not being realistic. The Natural seemed to fit this bill...until Kirk Gibson in 1988.

88. Band of Brothers: Henry V (1989): Next to Antony's funeral oration, this is Shakespeare's greatest speech. Kenneth Branagh delivers it seamlessly.

91. Asteroids: The Empire Strikes Back (1980): Star Wars set a new standard for special effects. Empire took it up a notch with this scene and the snow battle.

92. I’m Batman: Batman (1989): Before Christian Bale, there was---Michael Keaton! This is still iconic despite the film series itself being outdated.

93. The Battle in the Snow: The Empire Strikes Back (1980): Stop motion reached its apex in this scene. Nowadays, it would be CG'd. It also showed why the Empire was bad ass.
