Movie

Bond replying to the villain's, "For England, James?" with, "No. For me."
Bond. St Petersburg. TANK.
Bond escaping from the chemical weapons plant on a motorcycle, which he then rode off a cliff and caught up with a plane.
At the beginning when Bond jumps from the top of the dam. The free-fall and eventual landing scene that follows is several seconds, maybe even up to a minute, of a single sound of whooshed air. When this movie first came out, that was the moment when people knew this Bond film would revive the series.
For me, the scene when Pierce Brosnan became Bond was when he and Natalya were facing the Russian official who threatened to execute them:

James Bond: What, no small talk? No ... chit-chat? That's the trouble with the world these days, nobody takes the time to perform a really sinister interrogation. It's a lost art.

The scenes with Judi Dench as M, particularly the Right Behind Me moment.

M: You were saying?
Bill Tanner: No, no, I was just... just um...
M: Good. Because if I want sarcasm, Mr Tanner, I'll talk to my children, thank you very much.

M telling Bond he is a sexist misogynistic dinosaur.
Xenia Onatopp's preferred method of assassination. Out with a Bang indeed!
Valentin Zukovsky:

Valentin: Walther PPK, 7.65 millimeter. Only three men I know use such a gun. I believe I've killed two of them.
Bond: Lucky me.
(A gun is pointed at the back of Bond's head)
Valentin: I think not.

Also, the final fight between Bond and Janus. Competing for the title of best fight in the series with the fight between Bond and Red Grant in From Russia with Love.
- According to the DVD commentary, it was scripted and filmed to be a homage to the legendary Bond/Grant fight.
Bond barely acknowledging that he is fired upon when setting bombs in Janus' base, just giving a slight flinch when bullets hit his cover.

-* The multiplayer was implemented by ''one guy''.
-* For a slightly ''more'' obvious Moment of Awesome, see no further than the wonderful applications of [[Tank Goodness]].
-* The grenade launcher in ''Surface'' and the remote mines in ''Facility'' are very fun to play with, especially in multiplayer.
-* At the end of the trainyard mission, Bond steps onto Alec's train, and two guards appear on either side of him. He guns down the one on the left, whips around to kill the one on the right, and then pauses, turns, and adjusts his tie right as the doors slide shut. ''Classic'' Bond.
