The hero needs a weapon. Maybe his ancestral sword was broken by the villain and needs to be repaired. Or maybe the weapon he has just isn't good enough. At any rate, he needs not just any sword, but the right sword.
And the right sword must be custom forged.
Thus, we get a Forging Scene. A skilled blacksmith, perhaps a magical smith or even the hero himself will take red hot iron (Thunderbolt or otherwise) and hammer it into a war-worthy weapon with his own two hands, making sure you see how much effort is going into making it and how beautiful the end product is.
All sorts of Artistic License is taken when depicting the process in visual media, usually by conflating steps that are actually supposed to be done in a very specific order. For example, you will often see a smith at his anvil hammering on a sword or piece of armor that is practically finished already—perhaps already fitted with a hilt if it's a sword—when in reality this kind of rough shaping is done before you grind or polish the piece and would ruin your work if you tried it afterwards. This liberty is probably taken to make sure that the viewer recognizes it as a weapon, rather than a scale-covered piece of iron. A more egregious example of such license is that sometimes a steel sword is shown being cast by pouring molten metal into a mold, when this technique was only used for making bronze swords. In general, as long as the process gives the artist an opportunity to depict flickering firelight and shadows and splashes of brilliant color—which is a major reason for having one of these scenes—the creators and audience will not over-think these details.
The heat of the forge is also conducive to Fanservice. Though female smiths are not unknown, the vast majority of these sequences will be conducted by some brawny male figure, largely due to the popularity of Hot Men at Work — and despite the obvious danger from spurting flames and shooting sparks, such a scene will often (as in the page picture) be conducted as a Shirtless Scene, as well. Can occasionally appear in a Hard-Work Montage because what can be more manly than burly men hitting hot metal?

Aquaman (2018) features an interesting villainous version, in which David Kane, one of the smaller villains, is given a series of high-tech items and weapons by Orm. Despite these weapons being extremely deadly and advanced in their current state, we get a scene of Kane pulling the technology apart, redesigning it, coating it in black spray-paint, and even being forced to design the helmet larger to accommodate the laser function he took out of the plasma gun and placed in the helmet lenses. And thus we get Black Manta.

Played for laughs in An Unwelcome Quest. The blacksmith who forges the Mobius Blade is a video game character programmed by the Todd. He forces the heroes to watch the forging scene, and certain aspects are performed in great, dramatic detail, with a lot of showboating. Others are done with generic hand-waving motions. The protagonists note that Todd must have only done partial research on the process of forging weapons and only bothered scripting the parts he found interesting.

Wonder Woman (1987): Ares watches Io forge a sword from the shadows during a period while Themyscira is blessed so that conventional weapons cannot harm those present there. He then emerges from the shadows to commend her workmanship and exempt the blade from the blessing on the island. Io (much) later uses it to stab Ares and it is able to harm him due to his own interference in its making.

Samurai Jack:
The episode "Seasons of Death": the winter vignette is a forging sequence by a tribe of mountain giants using all the resources of their civilization, including dragon fire, lightning, and eldritch magic, to create the ultimate Blade of Doom, which Jack destroys without trouble.
On the other side of spectrum is the scene where some immense monk-like beings forge Jack's own sword (for his father initially), using the man's Spark as the workpiece, and gods heating it with their divine power.

Monster Hunter: The introduction videos of Monster Hunter Freedom 2 and its Unite rerelease take care to show the weapons and armor being forged in loving detail. The surprising part is that unlike many of the other works that simply use forging scenes for drama, these scenes show the loving amount of work required to make the works of art that you as the hunter who collected the materials to get them. The game even takes it a step further to show the fantastic side of the process by showing how the parts of the creatures will factor in the creation like pouring molten metal on a Rathalos Tail spine to fill in the gaps of the tail grooves.

Man at Arms is an entire series based on this trope, forging real-life replicas of fictitious weapons ranging from Oddjob's hat to BFS swords like Zangetsu and the Buster Sword (the latter requiring two people to wield it) to a legit Thunderbolt Iron replica of Sokka's sword.

Rambo:
Rambo III had a scene where the eponymous hero forges his new battleknife, but it was cut from the final version.
Since the previous movie didn't have one, the fourth movie makes up for it by having such a scene. It's more plausible than the one from III, as his knife in that film was large, ornate bowie designed by master knifesmith Gil Hibben and looks it, where the one Rambo forges here is a much cruder machete made from a salvaged truck leaf spring; the sort of thing you'd expect someone to literally hammer out overnight in a backyard forge.

In The Day the Earth Froze (an partial adaptation of The Kalevala), Wicked Witch Louhi kidnaps Annikki in order to force her brother, Ultimate Blacksmith Ilmarinen, into forging a Sampo (a magic mill that can produce endless grain, gold, and salt) for her. This inevitably leads to a scene where he does exactly that, creating the Sampo from barley grains, swan feathers, sheep's wool, and the fire of the northern sky (which Louhi has been hoarding). Later in the film, when Louhi steals the sun from the sky over Kalevala, we get a second forging scene as the villagers donate their metal jewellery to Ilmarinen to be melted down into strings for kantele (zither-like instruments) to be used in the fight against Louhi and her trolls.

In The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, any time the player goes to work at a smithing station, an animation will play of the character doing various smithing tasks in the background while you're putting together or upgrading the armor, weapon, or jewelry in question. There are different animations for different stations, be they a forge, a grindstone, smelting in a furnace, making leather on a tanning rack, or hammering plates of armor on a workbench.

Steel usually does this every time he makes a new suit of armor. Especially in Grant Morrison's JLA, since Morrison saw him as the Hephasteus of the League's pantheon, and therefore would rather show him sweating over a forge than adjusting servomotors with a screwdriver.

Avengers: Infinity War has the forging of Stormbreaker. Because the original star-forge was badly damaged by Thanos after the Infinity Gauntlet was forged there so that the forge couldn't be used against him, it takes a team effort to forge the axe-hammer. Thor and Rocket use Rocket's pod to pull the satellite rings in position to reignite the star at the heart of it. When they discover that the forge's iris can't remain open long enough to heat the uru metal, Thor holds it open, exposing himself to the full force of a star. Unfortunately, he is only able to hold it open long enough to forge the axe and hammer heads of Stormbreaker and not the handle. Groot, realizing that Thor is dying and needs the Stormbreaker's power to restore himself, completes the weapon by using his own arm as the handle.

The Avengers: Earth's Mightiest Heroes:
The season 1 finale features a forging scene with Iron Man making new armor for himself. Also works as a shout-out to the live-action movie.
In season 2 "The Ballad of Beta Ray Bill" the fire demon Surtur is seen re-forging his sword.

In Dragon Age: Origins, whichever Paragon you side with at the end of the Orzammar quest chain will forge a crown for whoever you choose to be the new king of Orzammar. It's kind of weird awesome seeing a huge steel golem do this if you choose Caridin.

The Legend of Zelda
In A Link to the Past, the dwarven smiths can be asked to improve your sword, which leads to a Forging Scene.
Ocarina of Time features the infamous forging-subquest for the Awesome, but Impractical two-handed Biggoron-Sword.
In Phantom Hourglass you need to forge the Phantom Sword.
Parodied in Oracle of Ages: In order to reforge the broken sword, you have to win a minigame which has very much nothing to do with the forging itself but amusement for the smith. It doesn't help that the smith usually refers to this minigame as an important ritual which must be completed.
Skyward Sword as a whole is in many ways an extended forging scene. Though there's no forging in the traditional sense, at several points Link bathes his sword in divine fire to make it stronger.

In the first film, there is the scene of Robert Downey, Jr., hammering away on a metal sheet, sweating in the forge-light... which makes the women (and some of the men) in the audience go weak at the knees.

Dragonslayer. The title weapon was forged before the events of the film by the village blacksmith, but hidden because the kingdom decided to appease the dragon instead. But, while it is a nasty spear, the main character is pretty sure it's not good enough, so he uses his magic to heat the blade to a temperature greater than a forge can reach. The original smith starts hammering the heated blade again, and in the next scene it's an Infinity Plus One Spear.

Black As Night features this as the first step to helping Hiccup adapt to his blindness after a training accident as Astrid helps him with his offer to re-forge her axe. He accomplishes this through his natural knowledge of where everything is in the forge, some visual input from Astrid to determine the condition of the metal based on its colour, and his own use of a glove made from the hide of a Monstrous Nightmare so that he can feel the condition of the weapon.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power:
In "Partings", Halbrand finally gets to show off his blacksmith skills, depicting the process step by step by forging swords for the Númenoreans, impressing the very people that doubted his skills and refused him earlier for not having the smith guild crest.
Halbrand gets another forging scene in "Alloyed". He sweet talks his way into Celebrimbor's new forgery, and helps Celembribor and Elrond to find a way to harness mythril's properties and use it to tap into the powers of the Seen and Unseen World. He secretly plans to forge two rings, for him and Galadriel, but he cannot carry out his plans to the end because Galadriel finds his true identity.
After Halbrand's sudden departure, Galadriel proposes for three rings to be forged in order to balance their powers, and we finally get to see the forging of the Three Elven Rings: Nenya, Narya and Vilya.

Game of Thrones:
The fourth season opens with Lord Tywin Lannister watching (with just a touch of villainous smugness) as Ice, the Ancestral Weapon of House Stark, is melted down into two smaller swords for the use of his own family. At this stage in the war, House Lannister has apparently triumphed over all their enemies. Just to emphasize this point, Tywin throws the wolfskin scabbard (the wolf being the sigil of House Stark) into the fire.
Before that, we have Gendry forging a sword, Shirtless, while Arya watches on.

Weirdly enough, Judge Dredd found room for one of these during the Judge Cal saga. Justice Department may have super-advanced handguns, infallible lie detectors and interplanetary spacecraft, but they also keep a blacksmith on the payroll for making badges.

Happens in the Finnish epic The Kalevala quite a lot. Rune IX is noteworthy because it is the origin of iron.

Doctor Who:
"The Woman Who Fell to Earth", introducing Jodie Whittaker's Thirteenth Doctor, has a scene where she makes a new sonic screwdriver from scratch in a Sheffield workshop, including forging the casing out of teaspoons.
Given a Dark Reprise in "Resolution" when the Dalek-controlled Lin rebuilds its casing in a farm smithy.

There is a scene in The Mad Magician where Gallico (a young and surprisingly buff Vincent Price) is working at the forge in his workshop; his shirt open to the waist. His ex-wife Claire (Eva Gabor) finds the sight quite a turn-on.

As the gods descend into the realm of the nibelung dwarves in the first opera, we hear a percussion extravaganza of eighteen anvils, beating in rhythm with the music.

Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf: At the end of The Great Rescue episode 20, Sparky, having been brought to a forging room, takes up a hammer and forges armor for himself. He wraps a bandage onto his hand as he does so, a direct Shout-Out to the Marvel Cinematic Universe's first Iron Man movie which has a similar scene.

Parodied in Oracle of Ages: In order to reforge the broken sword, you have to win a minigame which has very much nothing to do with the forging itself but amusement for the smith. It doesn't help that the smith usually refers to this minigame as an important ritual which must be completed.

The female blacksmith of A Knight's Tale notices that the main character wears armor that wasn't made for him. She volunteers to make him some that's so light-weight he wouldn't know he was wearing it. After she is finished the knight is presented with a suit of shiny new armour.

The Book of Boba Fett:
The same Armorer melts the head of the beskar spear to forge a small chainmail vest destined to Grogu, on the Mandalorian's request.
There's an extended scene of Boba carving his own gaderffii stick from the branch he found while on a vision quest. Unlike most forging scenes, this involves more woodwork than metal-forging — which is only used for the spear tip and bracing collars.

In Brisingr, Rhunön swore an oath to never forge another sword after the fall of the Dragon Riders. Thus, when Eragon shows up with the metal used to forge Riders' swords and asks for one, she can't make him one. What she is able to do, however, is puppet him into making most of it for her, which she is able to do in record time, until the oaths she swore no longer bind her from polishing or dressing it up. Thus, we get to see how Riders' swords are made through Eragon's eyes, and it's almost entirely based on how real-life swordsmiths crafted their weapons, as Paolini had dove deep into books on swordsmithing in preparation to write this book.

When Doctor Strange needs to rescue an ally who is very far away, he learns the art of forging magical tools from the dwarven Ultimate Blacksmith Eoffren. He is shown forging a magical sword capable of cutting through dimensions, a sword he dubs the Scalpel of Strange. This is notably the very first magical artifact that bears Strange's own name, signifying his growth as a Sorcerer Supreme.

The Blacksmiths'Guild in Loom is a big forging scene, with smiths hammering something on their anvils everywhere. Special mention goes to a blacksmith named Edgewise, who is sharpening the ultimate sword for evil Bishop Mandible: the protagonist need to halt the forging process by using the Sharpening draft backwards on the sword.

The anime of Shangri-La Frontier has a forging sequence including tempering the weapon in intense flames, slamming on it with a hammer that produces magic sigils which imbue into the weapon with each strike, and singing a song with lyrics dedicated to the work of blacksmiths to create great weapons.

The Lord of the Rings has the forging of the One Ring by Sauron in the first film's prologue, then later uses two different styles of subsequent Forging Scenes. The mass-production of the Uruk-hai's ugly but effective weapons and armor emphasizes the Industrialized Evil of Isengard, while the reforging of Narsil into Andúril is much more dramatic, and features Arwen reciting parts of the poem that serves as Aragorn's Trust Password in the books.
