Most EPIC movies of all time?
I have a few days off. Going to waste away in front of my new television. Hopefully watching some films that have EPIC scale and beautiful visuals. Looking for suggestions. I'll get a few of the obvious ones out of the way...
2001: ASO Lawrence of Arabia The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly LOTR Trilogy Seven Samurai Any ideas ladies and gents?

I'm not a fan of calling movies 'epic'.
Here's some 'awesome' flicks. The Raid: Redemption I'm still surprised nobody else has posted to say they've seen this. It's so GD good! Some serious "Oh shit!" moments in this flick. It's a MUST watch for action/fight fans. Sticking with fighting flicks with great choreography/scale... The Legend of Drunken Master Fist of Legend IP Man Ong Bak Flash Point Next fight flick I'm looking forward to: The Man with the Iron Fists, directed by RZA lol! IDK who does the choreography, but it should be pretty tight. Shooters/ gunplay flicks... Hard Boiled The Killer Shoot em Up Die Hard (also my fav christmas/Holiday flick  When I think of the 2 most recent flicks that really got me pumped for the visuals/music/sound/action... I gotta go with Star Trek (2009) and Inception . Other than The Raid, of course ^_^-b. Glad nobody said Avatar LOLOLOLOLOLOLOololololololol |

not movies that are "epically good" or something. I mean it was EPIC. Movies that have a grand scale, big scope, etc. etc. Avatar is an epic. Personally I think it was a shitty movie so I wouldn't recommend it...but it's by definition an epic.

You would have to call Avatar epic just because of the visuals. The movie itself was meh, but the visuals made it so much better than it should have been.
