This is hands-down my favorite scene ever put on film.

My all-time fave. Old school.
Mr. Posner: You really think those Green Beret Karate tricks are gonna help you against all these boys?
Billy Jack: Well, it doesn't look to me like I really have any choice now, does it?
Mr. Posner:![[laughing]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/classic/laugh.r191677.gif "Laughing [laughing]")
That's right, you don't.
Billy Jack: You know what I think I'm gonna do then? Just for the hell of it?
Mr. Posner: Tell me.
Billy Jack: I'm gonna take this right foot, and I'm gonna whop you on that side of your face...
[points to Posner's right cheek]
Billy Jack: ...and you wanna know something? There's not a damn thing you're gonna be able to do about it.
Mr. Posner: Really?
Billy Jack: Really.

Liked all the movies, but THIS scene is probably my favorite.

Not a movie, but Justified is a great show.

I’m going to go against the grain here & choose one that shows extreme restraint…while still portraying absolute badassery.
I love all the above. However, I am going a different route. 
"you've lost, you just don't know it."

Another oldie but goodie from Clint Eastwood...
Keaton always told me, I don't believe in God but I'm afraid of him. We'll I believe in God and the only thing that scares me is Kaiser Sosay.
Good old Albert Popwell.
He was actually in 4 of the 5 Dirty Harry movies.
- Jules: I'm not giving you that money. I'm buying something from you. Wanna know what I'm buyin' Ringo?
- Pumpkin: What?
- Jules: Your life. I'm givin' you that money so I don't have to kill your ass. You read the Bible?
- Pumpkin: Not regularly.
- Jules: There's a passage I got memorized. Ezekiel 25:17. "The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness, for he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy My brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay My vengeance upon you." Now... I been sayin' that shit for years. And if you ever heard it, that meant your ass. You'd be dead right now. I never gave much thought to what it meant. I just thought it was a cold-blooded thing to say to a mother****er before I popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some shit this mornin' made me think twice. See, now I'm thinking: maybe it means you're the evil man. And I'm the righteous man. And Mr. 9mm here... he's the shepherd protecting my righteous ass in the valley of darkness. Or it could mean you're the righteous man and I'm the shepherd and it's the world that's evil and selfish. And I'd like that. But that shit ain't the truth. The truth is you're the weak. And I'm the tyranny of evil men. But I'm tryin', Ringo. I'm tryin' real hard to be the shepherd.
