Line 1:
{{work}}
* After Coraline has {{spoiler|escaped the Other Mother's metal spider web and climbed through the little door into the hallway, the Other Mother pries the door open and hisses}} - and Coraline ''kicks her in the face''.
** Wybie gets his own moment in the sun. After the Other Wybie heroically {{spoiler|rescues Coraline, knowing how the Other Mother would punish his betrayal}}, the real Wybie calls Coraline crazy before getting chased away - Not particularly auspicious. But then at the end, when Coraline is being dragged by the Other Mother's {{spoiler|disembodied hand}}, he comes riding down out of the dark to {{spoiler|grab the hand, fall into the well, then climb back out in time to smash the thing to smithereens}}. And then he apologizes for insulting her and calls her "Coraline" - The first time anyone in the Pink Palace has gotten her name right.
** This Troper was struck by how {{spoiler|after being attacked by an entire garden of the most horrible things Neil Gaiman can imagine, Coralline still strides into the theatre isle, watched by all those dead dogs,}} and shows nothing but determination. For this Troper it was the moment she stopped being whiny and annoying, and began to look badass.
** The movie's mere existence is a huge CMOA to the world of stop-motion, 3D and animations in general. It ''utterly annihilates'' almost every single limitations of stop-motion.
* {{spoiler|Coraline and Wybie's final battle with the Other Mother... or at least her hand}}
* [[Punctuated!
** She [[Fastball Special|throws the cat]] in the Other Mother's face!
* The garden scene is awesome by itself, [[Up to Eleven|but for anyone with any kind of experience in making stop-motion...]]
Line 12 ⟶ 11:
* {{spoiler|[[Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?|Coraline kicking Other Mother's face.]]}}
* This line, just for the awesome [[Deadpan Snarker|snarkiness]] and the fact that it can be used in so many conversations:
