By the end of the fight, it's ''Ridley'' who now [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere cowers]] before Samus.

**Blowing up the [[spoiler:Queen Metroid]] ''from the inside out with Power Bombs'' is probably the most cathartic boss fight ending in the whole game.
*** Of course, [[GuideDangIt it's not like the game ''told'' you you could do that or anything...]]
* ThisTroper is [[HateDom not a fan]] of OtherM, but thought the introduction of Ridely as a CreepyChild was a very cool moment.
** Thanks to Nintendo Acres, this troper can't help but laugh at the concept of Little Birdy.game.

Despite the fact it was largly pointless, unnecessary, and followed a debatable crossing of the MoralEventHorizon.

*** It was ''not'' pointless. Sure, [[spoiler: he]] turned out to be wrong about it stopping [[spoiler: MB herself]], but [[spoiler: he]] ''did'' succeed in getting rid of the [[spoiler: ice-proof Metroids]]. That act still meant something. And as for MoralEventHorizon, remember ''why'' [[spoiler: he shot Samus.]] This ''is'' Samus Aran we're talking about; as her own subsequent actions prove, there was no other way to keep her from stopping [[spoiler: him.]] Besides, all [[spoiler: he did was incapacitate her briefly.]] Not ''nice'', maybe, but not exactly ''that'' horrible a thing, either.
**** Samus Aran? The woman who had spent most of the game obeying his orders just because she respected him? The woman who took serious damage before activating her Varia suit, because she didn't want to disobey his orders? Yes, I can see how shooting her with a possibly-deadly weapon makes so much more sense than just yelling at her to stop, and explaining the situation.
**** What's worse is that Samus wouldn't even have needed to fight the nigh-invincible Metroids in Sector Zero. All Adam had to do was cause enough superficial damage to the section to cause it to auto-eject. Gosh, if only there were someone with super-speed enhanced combat armour and delayed-response Power Bombs that she's been explicitly ordered not to use specifically because they could cause damage to the station. Oh, wait. It's not like Samus has never had to outrun a destruct sequence. It's like a bi-monthly occurrence for her.
***** And let us not forget the live metroid hovering over her when this happened.

* The trailer shown at E3 2009 for Metroid: Other M could be a crowning moment of sheer awesome all on its own. '''[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFFXkjYJEBI&fmt=18 Samus THROWS a Kihunter. By its TAIL.]]'''
** Just before it: Tackling an alien to the ground by holding it in a headlock, then shooting it in the back of the head, at ''point blank''.
*** And she does this [[{{Ninja}} ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME.]]
**** Every freaking MOMENT if gameplay in Other M counts! Sense move, overblast, etc. And Concentration! Sumus can now HEAL HERSELF AND RESTORE GODDAMN MISSILES THROUGH SHEER FORCE OF WILL.
