Great choices so far. I expect the Uma Thurman vs. Alicia Silvertone fight from Batman and Robin pop up as #1.
CiCi's Top Ten Cinematic Catfights
3. Uma Thurman vs Daryl Hannah (Kill Bill vol.2 - 2004)
This small series had about 4 fights exclusively between women if I remember correctly, and I often feel as though this particular one is often forgotten, anyway, between the way the fight becomes slightly slower in places gives it an authentic feeling and the clever, spontaneous methods these women employ to keep themselves alive (i.e. flushing a toilet to avoid drowning) is so simple yet so intelligent. It's a hugely enjoyable scene, and so it makes it to number three on this list.

Anything from the two Kill Bill flicks gets the Judge Judy seal of approval. 
I'm truly humbled! 
But seriously, they're great films and the fights are simply exquisite!

There it was, the fight from Fast & Furious 6! Great fun cat fight if you ask me, maybe not as highly stylized as some other fights, but it has the fun factor and bad-assery through the roof!
And what a great way to start your top 3! This fight is definitely often forgotten, but it could easily be the best of the entire two-part film! I still have a soft spot for the opening fight in Vol. 1, but this is one that gives it a run for its money! I guess it's these two which keeps switching places in which I think is my favorite.
Looking forward to the last two!

2. Zhang Ziyi vs Michelle Yeoh (Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon - 2000)
A fight that is probably as beautiful as it is brutal, you can most certainly tell that the women here were trained in dancing. The entire sequence is entrancing, and with a diverse array of weapons being deployed against one another, it is one of the most fascinating and thrilling fight sequences there is, regardless of the genders of those involved.

Okay, here it is people, the very best catfight to have ever been featured in a film. It shouldn't come as too much of a surprise though, it's already been mentioned in the thread. But, here it is!
1. Uma Thurman vs Vivica A. Fox (Kill Bill vol.1 - 2003)
This fight needs no introduction or explanation. It's just awesome in every single way.

Somehow I didn't think it would show up!
Damn, I'm sorry for almost spoiling your pick throughout, guess that's why you didn't really talk much about it when I mentioned it.
GREAT WAY to end your list, that's for sure!

And I think people probably saw it coming, it's a crime to talk about catfights and not bring this one up!

The Hatcher/Theron fight is the one I was talking about when you started the thread. That's my favorite.
