* The FastballSpecial executed in the first moments of the movie, taking off the head of a Sentinel without breaking a sweat, and Wolvie ''lighting his cigar on the flaming debris''.
** And consider, this was done in the Danger Room, which uses holograms. Not enough actual room to be thrown, and fake flames. Wolverine laughs in the face of physics.

* Part this, part Crowning Moment Of Characterization, but: [[spoiler:the Professor has died by Jean's hand]]. Pyro says he only wishes that he could've been the one to [[spoiler:kill him]], since it would be one more thing out of the way of their conquest. Magneto whips around and cuts him off mid-sentence to say that [[MyGreatestFailure his greatest regret]] is that Xavier will not be joining them, and ''no one'' will speak ill of him. There's a [[TechnicallyASmile kindly, grandfatherly, yet terrifying look]] on his face that ''firmly'' states that the next ill word of Charles Xavier that passes Pyro's lips will be his last.

--> '''Magneto''': Charles Xavier did more for mutants than you will ever know. My greatest regret will be that he had to die for our dream to live.

* Though he was only in the movie as what amounted to an extended cameo, Angel unfolding his wings (with an accompanying score) nonetheless stands out. Points go to Dr Rao looking absolutely ''awed'' as she sees them unfurled for the first time.

** Heck, Beast in general. We all knew Kelsey Grammer could bring the appropriate erudite elegance to the role, but who knew he'd be able to pull off Beast's physicality and savagery as well?
