The Movie: It’s been over 30 years since the world met Tony Montana and the violent world of the Miami drug trade in Scarface, Brian De Palma and Oliver Stone’s remake of the original Howard Hawkes gangster picture. Critics hated the film when it came out because of its vulgarity and violence; however, fans took to it and now it's impossible to imagine the pop culture landscape without it.

The Legendary Scene: After making it to the very top, Tony goes out guns blazing and without a shred of dignity left. As the Bolivian Cartel surround his house to take him down, Tony watches and prepares from his all seeing office.

After asking if they "wanna’ play rough?" and cocking the grenade launcher on his Colt AR-15, Tony bellows what is now one of the most overused and recognized quotes in the film world: “Say hello to my little friend!”, before blasting away the few guards that stood at his front door. Tony's bloody, profane and epic downfall remains one of the greatest exits in gangster movie history.
