Even of technically verifiable or even notable, this borders on indiscriminate. Famous movie scenes should be mentioned in the respective film articles, but separate articles for famous scenes is pushing it. What's next, Because he's the hero Gotham deserves, but not the one it needs right now? (I openly admit that an argument could be made for redirecting in a similar vein to No, Luke, I am your father, but I'm not sure this will be a likely search term.)

 * Delete as WP:OR. This may be an intuitive title for the scene, but there's no real notability indicated for this scene (it's "famous," but we're not told why). Searching reveals artwork based on the scene, a book about George Lucas, and some songs. Not an appropriate merge target, either, since it's really just a description of the scene's plot (I won't say synopsis, as it doesn't seem to leave anything out!). I don't like the idea of redirecting either, since anyone who searches for this exact phrase is more likely looking for info on one of the songs. --BDD (talk) 01:06, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. Seems to fail the notability criteria outright, with no secondary sources and no content beyond a nearly verbatim recital of the scene's dialogue. A link in the film's main article to a video clip of this scene would suffice and be more accurate. Hertz1888 (talk) 01:12, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Agreed, utterly sensible. We'd have to take special care, though, to ensure that the video clip is not a copyright violation such as a YouTube upload by a random user. CtP  (t • c) 01:15, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
 * Thank you. It was a hypothetical clip, and we have no responsibility for finding an actual one or making such a link. Hertz1888 (talk) 01:21, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
