I could post scenes from 2001 all day in this thread. Instead I'll limit it to these 3:

For real ^^ Some beautiful shots in 2001
That scene in the new Hobbit with the mountain and the sunset with the orcs on the wolves riding along the mountains. Yeah.
I like shadows, I like long shots, I like framing, and I like a trailing shots.
The Third Man is my favorite pre 60s movie not from Hitchcock.

This one is my desktop at home. A little obscure and a newer movie.

And just a few from one of the best looking modern flicks of recent years. And the opening scene in particular, but many of the long shots in this were incredible on their own.

I'd also like to mention Scorcese's trail shots. Particularly of Pesci heading into the resturant in Goodfellas, but it's more a sequence than a particular image. And there's a handfull of directors that seem to have fetishes for certain types of shots these days.

You just like that scene because of the quick flash of male genitals on the screen.

I wanted to mention Leave the Gun and Take the Canolli, and The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, especially the first scene train robbery, but I'm having technical issues. Check them out.

Through and through, just a beautiful looking movie.
