And today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 confrontational movie moments.
Call it, Call it hard, Just go.
You want me?
Here I am.
My name is Maximus Decimus, Merida's commander of the armies of the North General of the Felix.
Legions for this list will be examining tents or aggressive exchanges between two or more characters in film.
We'll be avoiding straight up fights and lengthy shootouts, though please note this video will contain spoilers.
If you think we miss one, be sure to confront us about it.
In the comments below Number 10 Clarisse meets Hannibal.
The Silence of the Lambs.
FBI student Clarisse Starling meets Dr Hannibal Lecter a few times throughout this film, but her first encounter with the cannibal psychiatrist is possibly the best.
Right from the beginning, she's thrown off by his calm culture demeanor.
You know, Florence, all that detail just from memory, sir.
Memory Agent Starling is what I have.
Instead of a view Hannibal, maybe locked up, but he has all the power as Clarisse is.
They're looking for his help.
He had been courteous and receptive to courtesy.
You had established trust with the embarrassing truth about Meg's now this ham handed segue into your question.
Er, the struggle between them isn't physical, but it's riveting nonetheless, and both actors air at the top of their game.
Watching their verbal sparring is like enjoying a nice Chianti liver and fava beans, optional A census taker.
Ones tried to test me.
I ate his liver with some fava beans and a nice Chianti.
Number nine coffee talk heat.
I don't know how to do anything else.
Neither do I.
I don't much want to either do I.
Heroes and villains Air, usually portrayed, is locked into constant struggle because of this time honored formula.
Scenes in which they're actually shown relating to one another could be refreshing.
There are few better examples than this exchange between Lieutenant Vincent Hanna and Neel McCauley.
In Michael Mann's Heat, Hannah, a police detective, invites Macaulay the thief he's pursuing to a coffee shop to talk.
What do you say I buy you a cup of coffee Yeah, sure.
Let's go.
Here they discuss their professions and personal lives despite finding common ground.
Both make it clear that they won't stop doing what they dio, even if one of them has to die for it.
If it's between you and some poor bastard whose wife you're gonna turn into a widow brother, you are going down number eight The deal.
Boogie Nights.
That's right, man.
So we're gonna do a deal.
We're gonna drop half a key baking soda into a bag.
We're gonna walk over there.
We're gonna talk about doomed to failure.
When Dirk Diggler and friends read and Todd try to sell baking soda to a drug dealer, it turns out well how you'd expect.
The scene is a perfect balance of comedy intention.
As dealer Rod sings along to his favorite tunes, including Jessie's Girl.
Lately, something's changed.
It ain't hard to find.
Meanwhile, there's a bodyguard with a gun and an associate playing with firecrackers.
Sure enough, the situation explodes when Todd decides that he wants to rob Rod, You don't know anything about this, okay?
This is not what you want.
Todd doesn't make it.
And Dirk and Reed barely escape way.
Where can you find a showdown like that?
Number seven.
You can't handle the truth.
A few good men courtroom dramas run on confrontation, but they don't get much more memorable than this one.
Colonel Jessup is giving testimony regarding the murder of a Marine, which defense attorney Lieutenant Kaffee believes was an extrajudicial punishment or code red gone wrong.
You want answers, I think I'm entitled.
You want answered.
What the truth.
You can't handle the truth.
After Cathy spots a contradiction and Jessop's story, the colonel becomes increasingly disdainful of the junior officer, going into a proud rant on the necessity of ugly choices in the military.
You have that luxury.
You have the luxury of not knowing what I know that Santiago's death, while tragic, probably saved lives.
And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives.
However, Cathy's persistence leads to Jessup admitting that he ordered the code red.
It's kaffee, however, who ultimately gets the last word.
You put people's lives in danger.
Sweet dreams, son.
Don't call me son.
I'm a lawyer and an officer in the United States naming number six Mexican standoff The good, the bad and the ugly the dollars trilogy features some of the Western genres.
Greatest standoffs.
One of the most entertaining is the confrontation between the men with No name and Mortimer in for a few dollars more.
However, for this pick, we had to go with the final showdown between the titular characters of the good, the bad and the ugly.
Oh, it will be a lot easier with when the three arrive at a cemetery looking for buried gold, they engaged in a tense three way duel.
Clint Eastwood's Men with No Name stares down his rivals, Tuco and Angel Eyes, played by Mortimer actor Lee Van Cleef.
The tension rises to a fever pitch.
Is the movies iconic?
Score sores ever higher until a single shot rings out.
Number five Coin toss.
No Country for Old Men.
You're getting any rain up your way.
What way would that be?
I've seen you was from Dallas.
What business is it of yours where I'm from, friend.
Oh, A lot of people hate small talk, but not as much as dead eyed hitman Anton Sugar at a gas station.
He's irritated by the elderly attendance attempts at conversation and becomes evermore combative.
What time do you close now?
We close now is not a time.
What time do you close?
Generally around dark at dark.
You don't know what you're talking about.
This culminates in his demand that the attendant call a coin toss.
Call it calling.
The threat is only implicit, but hangs over the exchange like a dark cloud, keeping the audience on the edge of their seats.
Thankfully, the attendant calls it correctly, and as sugar walks out, it's easy to feel amused by his complete confusion.
But that unsettling feeling never really leaves either.
Don't put it in your pocket, sir.
Don't put it in your pocket.
That your luggage?
Water?
Where do you want me to put it?
Anywhere not in your pocket.
Number four.
Getting the suitcase.
Pulp Fiction There are a lot of great confrontations in this neo noir crime film.
Hey, kids, how you boys doing?
Hey, keep telling.
But perhaps the most memorable occurs when hitmen Jules Winnfield and Vincent Vega drop in on a group of friends who have stolen a suitcase from their employer.
So much about Jules interrogation is remarkable, from his hilarious dialogue to his abrupt murder of one of the men.
Oh, I'm sorry.
Did I break your concentration?
I didn't mean to do that.
Please continue.
And let's not forget his famous Bible quote.
You think you're 25.
17?
The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men.
If you haven't seen it, then watching it will surely change your life.
Perhaps not as drastically auras, miraculously a surviving a hail of bullets, but still and I will strike down upon the with great vengeance and furious anger Those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers.
And you will know my name is the Lord.
When I lay my vengeance upon the number three interrogations, the Dark Knight Batman has confronted his nemesis, the Joker, many times on screen.
But but few of their encounters make quite the impact that this one does.
When Harvey Dent and Rachel Dawes go missing Commissioner, Gordon gives Batman a crack and interrogating the clown prince of crime.
You want me Here I am.
I wanted to see what you do.
And you didn't disappoint.
You let five people die.
Although Batman gets a few licks in both verbally and certainly physically.
The Joker dominates the conversation, expressing his twisted admiration of Batman and his desire to bring everyone down to his level.
The gradually building tension and Heath Ledger's magnetic performance make this a confrontation.
You'll want to watch repeatedly.
You have nothing, nothing to threaten me.
Nothing todo with your story.
Number two.
Funny How good, Fellas.
The gangster lifestyle is full of hazards, but surprisingly, it's in a simple dinner scene that are Goodfellas protagonist Henry Hill feels most at risk when Tommy DeVito tells a funny story.
Henry remarks that Tommy is a funny guy.
E a story.
It's funny.
You're a funny guy.
Suddenly, Tommy gets serious, demanding to know what he means and picking apart.
Henry's response is funny.
How I mean, what's funny about Tom?
You know you got overall Ho Anthony.
He's a big boy.
He knows what he said.
What do you say?
Funny how the intensity comes from just how unhinged, irrational and impossible to appease Joe Pesci's character seems.
It turns out that he's just messing with Henry, but even knowing that and re watching the scene, it can still put you on edge.
I e.
Yeah, stuttering Prick it.
It's funny, Sure, but there's still a really undercurrent of danger before we unveil our number one pick.

Number one, The Tavern.
Inglorious Bastards.
The opening scene of this World War two film features an intense interrogation that had us hooked from the very first minute.
But the greatest confrontation in inglorious bastards is the tavern scene.
Consequently, a German soldier conducts a search of a house suspected of hiding Jews.
Where does the hawk look?
Although German speaking members of the titular group are expecting to meet their contact in a basement tavern.
They're thrown for a loop when they find Nazi soldiers celebrating their.
The scene that follows is a masterpiece of rising tension as they get closer and closer to being exposed as enemy soldiers intruding Z out storm.
Eventually, their only choice left is toe light, the gun powder keg themselves, right?
