• NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!
• From the film, Professor McGonagall jumping to Harry's aid, then duelling Snape. Most people already have a very soft-spot for McGonagall - that admiration will launch itself into the stratosphere in this moment.
  • In the book, she's even more badass.
• PIERTOTUM LOCOMOTOR!
• Neville Longbottom. In the course of 3 pages, he bullrushes Voldemort (though unsuccessfully), shoots down his We Can Rule Together offer, gets set on fire while Petrified, then, in one fluid move, breaks free of the curse, pulls the sword of Gryffindor out of the Sorting Hat, and beheads Nagini. The first time I've ever cheered out loud while reading a book.
  • In the film, completely obliterating the snatchers by blowing up the bridge into Hogwarts as they're running forward. Furthermore - there was no guarantee he wouldn't go down with them all. Then giving a Rousing Speech to all of Hogwarts and beheading Nagini just as she's about to eat Ron and Hermione.
• Harry to Umbridge: "You're lying Dolores, and one must not tell lies."
  • In the film version anyway. In the book version he stuns her while invisible without saying a word.
  • What makes the film version even more impressive is that he stuns her... but leaves her at the "mercy" of the Dementors... the same creatures that she sic'd on Harry in Order of the Phoenix.
• Kingsley gets a brief one in the movie: During the battle of Hogwarts, he actually kills a Death Eater mid-Apparation. As in, he turns to a window, somehow realizes that a Death Eater is going to Apparate through it in about a second, and throws a curse killing the guy before his feet ever touch the ground.
• Snape in the film when he has to duel McGonagall. Not only does he block every spell she throws at him, but he manages to deflect her spells into the Carrow siblings standing beside him, thereby taking out the Death Eathers inside the castle and maintaining his cover story all while making sure that not a single student or teacher was harmed in the process.
