Fuck you, CGI!

What's your favourite non-CGI movie scene? Special Effects are allowed - but nothing from software.

I'll start with the chariot race from Ben Hur (1959).

Yes.. Amazing work

I love old school stunts and effects. Evil Dead 2..ir the car chases in Bullit or French Connection. Proper stunt work always looks so good

The car jump in the original Italian Job, and the whole chase in the original Gone In 60 Seconds.

The alien in Alien and Aliens.... Went to school with the daughter of the chap who won Oscars for that and his work on two Star Wars films

"The car chase from Bullitt "

Let's not forget the car chase from 'The French Connection' they didn't actually have permission from the City, the stunt man is actually avoiding normal drivers.

Also add Steve McQueen in 'The Great Escape' the stunt men couldn't keep up with him in the motorcycle chase, in one scene he's actually chasing himself

No music in Bullit Steve McQueen insisted the car engine should provide the sound

Yep. Actually putting innocent lives at risk for the sake of a film scene.

Mental - but great.
