Superman Returns/Heartwarming
- Superman, remembering Jor-El's last message to him from the first film and telling it to his son Jason asleep in his bed.
- The moment in the credits when this comes up:
"To Christoper and Dana Reeve: A pair of real-life superheroes" |
- These words never fail to warm this troper's heart:
Jor-El: "They can be a great people,Kal-El. They wish to be. They only lack the light to show Them the way. It for this reason above that I have sent Them You..My only son". |
- When Superman flies above the storm clouds to a bright blue sky and triumphantly bathes himself in the glorious warmth of Earth's Golden-Sun to the angelic choir of John Ottman's score, gathering the strength and courage to throw a rapidly growing continent of Kryptonite into space.
