Could be a movie, could be a game, and for whatever reason: Cool explosions, fights, disasters, CGI, you name it. Hell, maybe it managed to tie the action in question into the story or setting unusually well. That counts too. Links to view the scenes are obviously appreciated, but if you can't find one, don't sweat it!

I got inspired to ask this one in part because I've been rewatching some of my favorites from movies recently, and in part because I'm a huge fan of games that focus on having as many giant explosions as they can muster. So I figured a good way to find some more stuff like this might be to post about it! And it gives me an excuse to share my own favorites, which I have trouble not talking about, truth be told. (I'll save that for a top-level comment, though)

My brother will be visiting from out of the country for Christmas, and I’m trying to put together vegan recipes we can make. Our entire family is not vegan except for him, so I’m looking for recipes to ensure he can have good food to eat while he is here (I’m sure he will do some cooking himself, but I think it would be nice if we were also to make things he could enjoy).

Really looking for anything people have made before that have turned out well, but specifically interested in

• soups/stews
• desserts (and cookies, ideally for decorating)

Thanks!
