I can agree with all of these I think, especially The Italian Job and V For Vendetta.
But if you can count multiple explosions how about the shelling of the trees in Band Of Brothers?

I liked the first Alien movie when the space tanker explodes. It was sooooo pretty.

Ocean's Eleven (2001) when they blow up the hotel. That one's a funny explosion thanks to Don Cheadle... Well technically, it was an implosion. Does that count?

the matrix; helicopter careening into the glass building- makes me crack up every time i watch it cause it's just so cool!
the glass rippling, then shattering, mushroom cloud of fire, not to mention trinity swinging out of it practically while it happens- great! (giggles drunkenly)
you pay money for this, sir? on purpose?
