4!!The Movie
5* Wolverine getting his adamantium skeleton and claws, while cool in itself, is nothing compared to the following scene of him overhearing Stryker's plan to erase his memory, and proceeding to burst out of the water ''roaring'' in rage, claws extended, and his extremely [[MrFanservice toned]] muscles articulated by the dramatic lighting, scaring the crap out of everyone else present.
6-->'''Zero''': I think he heard you …
7** Another one: after reeling back from Zero's quick headshot, he just turns back showing the uselessness of bullets against adamantium, once that happens you ''know'' asskicking is going to happen, Zero's OhCrap face says it all.
8* Wolverine killing a ''helicopter'' with his claws. And then killing Zero by walking away and letting his claws spark against gravel, thus igniting the leaked fuel... Cue UnflinchingWalk. Just plain beautiful.
9** He also gets one later on when fighting Sabretooth after being reinforced with adamantium, owning him beautifully and mocking him while he does so.
10** Wolverine and Sabertooth [[EnemyMine teaming up]] in the final battles.
11* Sabretooth gets one when he's taking a beating from teleporting mutant John Wraith (which is a CMOA for Wraith). Sabretooth smiles and says "You know, John, there's something I always wanted to tell you..." Then he reaches out to where he knows Wraith will be next, ''grabs him by the spinal column as he materializes'', and finishes with "You're predictable." Spine-breaking ensues.
12* [[ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} Wade Wilson]] gets his own [=CMoA=] scene. The future "Merc with a Mouth" walks into a room full of armed {{Mooks}}, swords spinning to block bullets from either side, and proceeds to whoop ass. The best moment has to be when he sees that a mook is about to take a shot at him (via a reflection on one of his sword), spins around as the shot is fired, and ''cuts the bullet in half.'' The two halves end up killing two mooks behind him.
13-->'''Wade''': Okay, people are dead.
14** [[SequelHook He gets another one.]] "[[BreakingTheFourthWall Sshhh...]]"
15* Silver Fox psychically telling General Stryker to "Walk until his feet bleed".
16* Logan and Victor's BackToBackBadasses stand against Deadpool.
17** Followed by a solid minute of nothing but Deadpool beating their asses until they figure out how he fights.
18* Frederick Dukes vs. a tank. Nothing can stop the Blob!
19** Almost nothing. Wolverine goes a few rounds with him in the ring and knocks him out cold [[NoHoldsBarredBeatdown with an elbow to the face]].
20* When Wolverine turns down Stryker's offer.
21--> '''Stryker:''' [[UncleSamWantsYou Your country needs you.]]
22--> '''Wolverine:''' I'm Canadian.
23* James and Victor's BashBrothers moment in the opening. The opening sequence is a badass {{Montage}} through UsefulNotes/TheAmericanCivilWar, UsefulNotes/WorldWarI, UsefulNotes/WorldWarII and UsefulNotes/TheVietnamWar! Complete with SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P3lP3Sr0yKs See for yourself]].
24** Special mention should go to the time when Logan double [[BoomHeadshot headshots]] two soldiers [[OneHitPolykill at the same time]]. Eat your heart out Deadpool!
25* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d1TwsCBSURA Agent Zero]]
26** [[EstablishingCharacterMoment In his first very first time in action on-screen]], [[SmugSuper he walks right upto the gate of the enemy base and waits till they have their strobe light and half a dozen guys with guns trained on him]], then proceeds gun down them without looking.
27** Daniel Henney is allegedly 6'2" while Creator/LievSchreiber is 6'3" with which we can scale the height of that gate fence. So Agent Zero simultaneously shot down two guys on either side of him and two guys on top of a skyscraper above him without even looking at them while avoiding automatic gunfire from them while flipping over a 12 feet fence during night while most probably hindered by the glare of the spotlight they had on him while they had the cover of darkness. That's insane.
28** When he shoots off Logan's cigar, Logan looks quite wary. That's right, he came pretty close to scaring Wolverine.
29* Logan's ScrewThisImOuttaHere moment when the Weapon X team is ordered to kill innocent villagers to obtain adamantium.
30** Similarly, stopping Victor's indiscriminate firing on the ground below by redirecting the helicopter.
31* Victor's epic FacingTheBulletsOneLiner.
32--> '''Victor:''' Wake me when it's over.

34!!The Game
35* The final boss of the game? [[HumongousMecha IT'S A SENTINEL!!]] And a comics-accurate Sentinel at that!
