* YMMV.HotlineMiami: SignatureScene: Jacket carrying Girlfriend out of Fisker's mansion, as seen in the cover art and trailer. What makes this iconic is that it serves as an EstablishingCharacterMoment for Jacket, as it juxtaposes his [[AxCrazy violent nature]] with his [[PetTheDog potential for kindness]] in a single image. '''Attempts to explain why the scene is iconic, with limited success.'''

* YMMV.SchindlersList: Signature Scene: Certainly has many options, but the liquidation of the ghetto, the girl in the red coat, Schindler's guilt ridden breakdown and especially the mass burning of corpses will always stand out. '''Four that just name a scene'''
* YMMV.TalesOfSymphonia: Signature Scene:
** The boss fight against Genis's friend Marble.
** Lloyd's coffee gambit, where he tricks Colette into revealing that she's losing her senses.
** The DuelBoss fight with Lloyd against Kratos. '''All three just name or describe a scene'''

* YMMV.Downfall2004: SignatureScene: The scene of Hitler's VillainousBreakdown upon hearing of Steiner's failure to launch a counterattack on the Soviets; particularly because it's known for being the moment that launched a million memes. In the 2012 Sight & Sound poll (in which critics from around the world get together and list their top 10 films), UK critic Kaleem Aftab chose this scene for his top 10, saying, "Bruno Ganz's performance as Hitler is so brilliant in showing his disgust at the failure of Steiner to attack the allies that the scene has been used and abused by legions of Internet users around the world, replacing the original subtitles to comment on current affairs –- it's the gift that won't stop giving." '''It's... it's beautiful... it cites evidence, gives context, and it's the only one on the page, brings a tear to my eye.'''

Added DiffLines:

SignatureScene is meant to refer to the iconic, well known scenes of various works, but it's often heavily overused, used to gush, has issues with being low/zero context, and potentially clashing with Administrivia/ThereIsNoSuchThingAsNotability in its current form.
