* ''Film/{{Scream}}'': The opening sequence where Casey, played by Creator/DrewBarrymore is terrorized over the phone and eventually killed by Ghostface. Iconic for the massive fake out to the audience as Drew was easily the biggest star in the film to be dead within the first 10 minutes, and the modernizing of the slasher film, between the meta commentary on horror films as Ghostface is quizzing Casey on her knowledge of scary movies, and the fact that the killer was using a cellphone. Every film in the franchise since has tried to recapture the magic of the opening.

** Mark visiting Juliet with cue cards and boombox. Eventually became a MemeticMutation.
** Karen's breakdown after she realized that Harry cheated on her with Mia. It's often considered one of the most heartbreaking scenes in movie history because of how shaking is her calm and later StepfordSmiler attitude.

* ''Film/TheGodfather'':
** The opening scene, where Don Vito Corleone talks with the undertaker, Amerigo Bonasera, about how friendship, respect and etiquette works in the Sicilian mob, is one of the most often referenced and parodied scenes from the films. Nine out of ten depictions of Don Corleone will also be directly based on the way he looks in this scene, dressed in a wedding suit with a rose in his lapel and with his eyes almost completely covered in shadow, and often [[RightHandCat holding a cat]].
** The scene where Jack Woltz awakes to find the head of his prized racehorse, Khartoum, placed in his bed while he was sleeping. [[TheScream He starts screaming as the scene switches to a shot of the exterior of his manor]]. This is perhaps the second most referenced sequence from the first film.
** The baptism scene, where Michael proves that he is even more cunning and ruthless than his father, by having his men eliminating all the family's enemies in one fell swoop. Through a montage of assassinations, interspliced with Michael calmly reciting the baptismal vows as he stands as Godfather at his nephew's baptism, is probably the third most referenced scene from the original.

* ''Film/MenInBlackII'': Serleena devouring a mugger alive with little effort. In part because of [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment how sudden and out of left field it is]], and because it features Lara Flynn Boyle in high heels and lingerie, and the way it plays out feeling like it was deliberately trying to lean into kink territory. A lot of people remember the movie most for this scene in particular, if nothing else.
