Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (novel)/Awesome

"Harry: "Kill me then. Kill me like you killed him, you coward-" Snape: "DON'T! CALL! ME! COWARD!""
 * In both the movie and the book, you have the scene in the cave. Dumbledore is babbling incoherently while Harry is trying to fight off the Inferi that are swarming the small island. Just as Harry is about to be killed, Dumbledore gets himself an Heroic Second Wind, stands up, and unleashes an epic Kill It with Fire spell that starts vaporizing the Inferi and clears the path to the boat and then back to shore.
 * Snape versus Harry at the end of the book. To steal a line from Spoony, "You must admit, he shows great restraint in not backhanding the little pissant's teeth out."
 * Fleur: "I am good-looking enough for the both of us, I theenk!"
 * "Dumbledore's man, through and through".
 * Ron and Hermione: "You said to us once before, we had time to turn back if we wanted to. We've had time, haven't we?" "We're with you whatever happens."
 * Dumbledore, despite being weakened by drinking the potion that was between them and the Horcrux, summoning a massive wall of flame to ward off the Inferi attacking him and Harry.
 * Dumbledore during that entire sequence. That wall of flame was more like an inferno.
 * Draco Malfoy gets a Villainous CMOA early on in the book when he stomps an immobilized Harry in the face. Was it a total dick move? Absolutely. Was it also awesome? Signs point to yes.
 * Correction: He stomps him in the face after he figures out he was hiding under his cloak with next to no clues.
 * Slytherin is also known for their cunning, but this has been overshadowed by their evilness. Draco has just proven just how cunning he is. Perhaps more cunning than any of the other Slytherins, since they did not notice Harry. At all.
 * Dumbledore's last CMOA: "No, Draco. It is my mercy, and not yours, that matters now."
 * Harry's fight with Snape:


 * After reading Deathly Hallows, Snape killing Dumbledore becomes a CMOA for both of them: Dumbledore, for, and Snape, for . Damn, just... Damn.
 * Sometime during his teenage years, Snape devised a spell which could brutally and painfully kill even accomplished wizards. Throughout the years, he had been routinely bullied and humiliated by the Marauders, one instance of which cost him the love of his life, which presumably didn't end before he graduated. He didn't employ it even once. Everyone who has ever been truly bullied in school would agree that this is a tremendous feat of self-control.
 * Actually, he did use it once: in the Pensieve, we see him cast it at James and cut his cheek.
