  • Anton Chigurh blowing up a car in front of a store using a piece of torn cloth and a lighter in No Country for Old Men.
    • Speaking of Chigurh, don't forget the scene near the end where he gets his arm broken in a car crash and treats it as no worse than a scratch, even when a bystander points it out.
      • Every scene with Anton Chigurh was a Crowning Moment of Awesome
  • This is one of the few movies that starts with a Crowning Moment of Awesome, Ed Tom's voiceover speech, which so perfectly encapsulates the feel of the movie and the despair of his situation that it leaves you breathless
  • Carla calling Anton’s bullshit about choice and his "moral code" even if he later kills her anyway. It’s a combination of The Reason You Suck Speech and You Keep Telling Yourself That and even suffers a brief and subtle Villainous Breakdown. Its Awesome
