This scene is a five minute, single take tracking shot. An incredible bit of planning and choreography and acting with a cast of hundreds to make it work, and all with only one chance to get it right because of the position of the sun. All the little stories that play out in each moment - best movie scene is subjective but this ticks a lot of those subjective boxes for me

Easy one for me. Love everything about this, the use of miniature models, the expressions and acting, the special effects and the dialogue. Can watch it repeatedly. Perfect set up to landing on LV-426.

Great call! Overlayed with Marianelli’s Elegy, which includes my favourite hymn. The entire scene is beautifully moving. A truly timeless piece of cinema.

I know lot of CGI, but I’d love to see this again on the big screen one day. Remember hairs on back of my neck standing up at the time, it was brilliant from late Bernard Hill’s rousing battle cry to the thunderous mass charge (which did have hundreds of real horses and actors partaking in when shot as well as the cgi additions)
