4. The Driller from 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon'
Paramount
In case you're the kind of person who thought "giant robots from outer space that turn into cars" was too subtle, enter the Driller, a subterranean, tentacled monstrosity ridden like a chariot by the Decepticon Soundwave. Spotlighting one specific scene in Michael Bay's 'Transformers' series may seem impossible, but that's just because you're still in a daze from having the $200 million visual junk food orgy being smeared across your eyeballs. The craziest action scene belongs to the Driller and its destruction of the Chicago skyscraper containing the human resistance. The subsequent battle with a jet-pack-armed Optimus Prime was just the whip cream and gravy on top of it all.
