Line 8:
* Cait Sith's "noble sacrifice", {{spoiler|which is of course later negated when another Cait Sith body appears right after he "dies".}}
** Cait Sith gets another awesome moment when he calls out Barret near the end of Disc 2 with a pretty epic "[[What the Hell, Hero?]]" speech. He reminds him that when AVALANCHE carried out the terrorist attacks, people actually died just so they could prove a point.
{{quote|
'''Barret''': ''"...that was for the life of the planet. Ya gotta expect a few casualties."''
'''Cait Sith''': ''"A few? Whaddya mean 'a few'? What may be a few to y'all is everything to them who died...... Protect the planet. Hah! Y'all sure sound good! Ain't no one that'd go against ya. So ya think ya can do whatever y'all want?"'' }}
* It looks like it's all over for Tifa when Scarlet has her stranded on the end of a huge cannon, then a voice tells her to jump. Cue Barret showing up in a huge airship and lowering a rope.
Line 17:
** Well, Advent Children gave us Rufus managing to pull a massive screwjob on Kadaj for the majority of the movie [[Magnificent Bastard|magnificently]], and despite having a lethal disease, he ''jumped headfirst out of a window many floors above ground to blow Jenova's head up without any regard for the safety of his own ass''! The fact he managed to bullshit EVERYONE into believing he was totally harmless (including his own allies, based on their reactions), and perform a balls of steel level Moment of Awesome is pretty amazing.
*** Although it seemed as though the Turks were working towards this goal from the beginning. How else do you explain Tseng and Elena showing up as Rufus is plummeting towards the sidewalk, and they're armed with grappling-hook net-guns that nicely save their still-cool-headed-as-all-hell President? And Reno and Rufus don't see surprised to see the friends they thought were dead.
*** Two words: [[Magnificent Bastard]] [[The Chessmaster|Chessmaster]]. At [[Xanatos Speed Chess]], even.
*** Let's not forget the awesome way Rufus not only pulled off the sheet hiding his face and the aforementioned massive screwjob on Kadaj, he also had the last word, as well! "A GOOD son would have known," is one of the best lines in the movie.
* After going through 8 hours of the game where your attacks are doing from 50-300 damage, during the Kalm flashback when Sephiroth is semi-playable, watching him do 3500 damage per attack and taking 0 damage from a dragon that one shot KOs Cloud is stunning.
* The kids of AC. Did Marlene just [[Did You Just Flip Off Cthulhu?|chuck stuff at Loz?]] After seeing him beat ''Tifa'', of all people, into the ground? (And remember that basically reads: Did Marlene just stand up to {{spoiler|Sephiroth}}?). Neither of those kids likes people messing with their adoptive mama, actually; Denzel charges ''straight at'' Bahamut SIN, which is decimating the place, screaming "[[Precision F-Strike|You son of a BITCH!]]". The Complete version only made this better: Denzel smashing a fire hydrant to [[Kill It with Water]], and the scene where Cloud drops Marlene off at the bar... and she tells him she knows exactly what he's been up to, and proceeds to deliver a [[Rousing Speech]] to a man four times her age. (That last one doubles as a [[
* Say what you want about [[What the Hell, Hero?|an innocent flower girl running off to stop a sword-wielding psychopath who can and did slice her to ribbons in one second]]. And it's been mentioned before, but it must be reiterated; All the heroes did was smack up a [[White-Haired Pretty Boy]]. ''Aerith'' stopped [[The End of the World as We Know It]]. ''[[My Death Is Just the Beginning|From beyond the grave.]]''
* Though [[Final Fantasy VI]] did it first, this game was the [[Trope Codifier]] for [[Limit
** Tifa's arguably stand out among the best of the best. All her limit breaks consist of her launching a combo of pure, unadulterated destruction, and just get more and more powerful as they level up. On top of that, they also allow her to suplex absolutely ANYTHING AND EVERYTHING, resulting in her often suplexing monsters the size of freaking buildings with ease. Land all her slots on "Yeah", and you've got yourself a borderline [[One-Man Army|One-Woman Army]].
* Yuffie [[Kick the Son of a Bitch|bitch-slapping Shelke]] in ''[[Dirge of Cerberus]]'' after she [[Kick the Dog|calls Shalua a fool for sacrificing herself for her sake.]]
* Advent Children had quite a few, best described through their accompanying quotes:
{{quote|
Vincent: *joining the fray* "Where can I buy a phone?" }}
* After a full game of the stress, fear, and pain that Sephiroth has caused you, murdering thousands of people, killing Aerith, and sending Meteor to the planet to destory it, you beat him in the final battle and he pulls you into the mind fight... Cue Cloud unleashing Omni-slash and watch that murdering bastard go down!
