Line 10:
* Each instance where Bullet Time is used in the first movie, in particular the scene where Neo dodges the bullets on the rooftop.
* Neo and Trinity shooting up the lobby.
{{quote| ''Neo walks through the metal detector and it goes off.''<br />
'''Guard''': Sir, could you please remove any metallic items you are carrying... keys, loose change...<br />
''Neo opens his trenchcoat to reveal enough guns to kill a small city.''<br />
'''Guard''': [[Oh Crap|Holy shit]]! }}
** This doubles as a [[Crowning Moment of Funny]].
Line 24:
** He also notably throws in a final scream for good measure.
* No love for Tank?
{{quote| "Believe it or not, you piece of shit, you're still gonna burn!"}}
* For this troper, Neo's Crowning Moment came after his resurrection, when he single-handedly fought off Agent Smith, with a look on his face suggesting he was even more bored than usual.
** To this troper his [[Dull Surprise]] actually helped the scene. It marked how Neo was now operating on a level so far above the Agents, he didn't even have to ''try''.
Line 44:
* Neo "doing his Superman thing" so fast that everything he passes is either shattered or sucked down the street after him while flying to rescue Trinity.
* How this didn't make it here already I don't know, especially considering Morpheus is [[The Comically Serious]].
{{quote| '''Smith:''' I want what you want. I want everything.<br />
'''Morpheus:''' *instantly snaps his pistol to Smith's head* Would that include a bullet from this gun? }}
* Ah, but the most awesome moment of all is the most subtle. It goes to the unlikeliest of characters-- the nerdy Keymaker. Trinity's guarding him, and she needs to steal a ride...
{{quote| '''Trinity:''' I need a download to hotwire a motorcycle.<br />
'''Link:''' Not a problem, one crash course in motorcycle...<br />
'''Keymaker:''' *gives her exactly the key she needs*<br />
'''Trinity:''' Wait. Cancel that. }}
* The Twins were underused in this troper's opinion. Effortlessly avoiding almost every attack thrown at them and barely reacting when actually hit. The deadpan sells it. Shot many times in the arm? "Can we move this along?" Forced out of a moving vehicle on the freeway? "We are becoming aggravated." "Yes, we are."
Line 59:
** Mifune facing the massive Sentinel tentacle and not only standing his ground but [[Screaming Warrior|defiantly screaming at them]] even while {{spoiler|they tore at his flesh, mortally wounding him}}.
** And speaking of Mifune, his speech before the Sentinels break through to Zion should count:
{{quote| "All right! This is it! Now you all know me, so I'm gonna say this as simply as I can. If it's our time to die, it's our time. All I ask is, if we have to give these bastards our lives...'''''we give 'em hell before we do!'''''"}}
* Niobe can ''freaking'' drive.
{{quote| "''Holy Christ'' I didn't know the ship could do that."}}
* Trinity and Neo fly above the clouds, and Trinity becomes the first human to get a fleeting glimpse of sunlight in ages.
* The final battle. After a long rant about human futility by Smith, Neo responds and tells the rogue Agent why he still persists: "Because I choose to".
