Awesome / The Blob (1988)

• Meg braving a Blob attack on the movie theater to save her little brother and his friend.
• " LET'S SCRAG THAT SON-OF-A-BITCH!"
  • Too bad it didn't end well.
• Colonel Harris gets a Dying Moment of Awesome, by trying to blow up the Blob as it devours him.
  • Considering the Blob can't die, though, it only causes a few cool-looking flashes inside it. At least he tried.
  • Considering how the Blob kills its prey, he got to die on his terms.
• Brian definitely has a few.
  • The motorcycle chase with the military, to and through the sewers.
  • His confrontation with Meddows qualifies, he gets a hold of a military rifle and aims at Meddow's in public, and in the Mexican standoff, he exposes Meddow's true nature to the townspeople. Meddow's tries to convince the townspeople that Brian needs to die, they aren't listening, so Meddow tries to shoot Brian, only to get dragged into the sewers by the Blob.
  • Think Gondor Calls for Aid in the original was awesome? How about this; the townspeople try to hold off the Blob, but it's gaining the upper hand, Brian pulls a Big Damn Heroes and fights with the Blob with a snow maker truck that has canisters of liquid nitrogen attached.
    • In a Battle Couple sense, Meg lures the Blob to the truck by firing at it with an assault rifle, then drops a satchel charge close to the canisters so that when it goes off, the cannisters will burst and unleash their freezing payload with enough force and volume to completely subdue the Blob.
• Just the fact Brian and Meg were more effective in fighting and subduing the Blob than the army and the entire town.
  • When Meg is firing at the Blob to distract it from Brian and get it near the liquid nitrogen tank. You can tell the girl's finally reached her limit and wants the damn thing to die.
    Meg: COME ON! YOU CAN DO BETTER THAN THAT!
