Equilibrium-Great movie not only because Christian Bale's characer evolves in such a way as to play light on part of what makes us human, our God-given ability to feel but also has excellent fights that appeal to both Eastern and Western styles of both extreme discipline but applied to a modern setting. I enjoy the conclusion found in the end that emotion is not only required but is necessary to combat tyranny.
Bourne Identity- There are a ton of great moments in this movie but I like the combination of hand to hand and knife work done in this scene. You also gotta give it to a guy who can stab someone with a ballpoint pen.
Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace- Colton may kill me for picking Episode I as my favorite fight scene but every other one looks way too scripted (or uses way too much computer generated work). Obviously it's Star Wars so a bit of the Force inclusion doesn't really work but hey, it's Star Wars.

I won't demolish your existance for picking Ep. I. In many ways that fight is superior because it isn't a huge force battle, or battle of wits. It seems that the original trilogy fights are more of a contest of will concerning the force. BUT... do not forget Yoda/Dooku, and Yoda/Sidious.
Dude, it's CGI. Yeah, it's pretty but I gotta think that a real guy fighting with a lightsaber with CGI added would be a bit more credible than an entirely created character flipping around.
