3%%* ''Advent Children Complete''. Where to start? Rude with a BFG 9000, Yazoo driving his motorcycle through an open MILITARY HELICOPTER. Oh, and one quote: "Found you."
4%%* "There's not a thing I don't cherish!"
5%%* No Tifa vs. Loz?
6%%* Denzel and the hydrant.
7%%* Marlene talking sense into a man four times her age.
8%%* Sephiroth's final words: '''"I will never be a memory."''' He's not wrong.
9%%* Any fight scene. Take your pick.

13* When Tifa tries to fight off some of the hellhounds attacking Denzel, and dodges a shot from Bahamut, which blows up a building, that's about to collapse on her, while Denzel is facing a horde of hellhounds...and Cloud comes in for a truly epic BigDamnHeroes moment as he throws his sword like a boomerang which destroys all the hellhounds, and hacks his way through a gauntlet of building debris to save Tifa.
14** Also a bit SugarWiki/{{heartwarming|Moments}} just moments before it all happens, we see both scenarios spliced with two traumatic moments from the past: The death of Aeris who got killed from above, and the fall of Zack who faced an unbeatable army. Cloud sees them in conjunction with the situations of his adoptive son and childhood friend... And he sure as hell ain't letting it happen again.
15* Vincent coming to Cloud and Marlene's rescue, the tattered red cloak swirling about like [[Franchise/{{Batman}} a certain bat-like character]]...
16** Batman ''wishes'' he had Vincent's awesome. All you can see is the fluttering red cloak, darting from here to there, impervious to Yazoo's shots. Suddenly, bullets start streaming out of the billowing cape, forcing ''all three'' Sephiroth larva back, before sweeping over to pick up Cloud and Marlene and hightailing it out. No one else but Cloud has so far gone toe-to-toe with even one of these guys and come out on top, and Vincent handled all three easy as picking up his dry cleaning.
17** Vincent has the best line when doing his part: "[[RousingSpeech Fly]]."
18* Arguably the fight that takes the proverbial cake is the one with Bahamut Sin when [[http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20080226075024/finalfantasy/images/f/f8/Bahamut_SIN_flying.jpg he]] started laying the smackdown (yes, I did just say that; it's ''Bahamut''), then the remixed boss battle music started, et cetera.
19* Can you say Omnislash? Cloud lands, several of his swords land around him ([[TheBladeAlwaysLandsPointyEndIn point first, obviously]]), and he catches the last one, with a look like "I win."
20** In ''Complete'' Cloud hits Sephiroth with the original Omnislash. Whilst this is what defeated him in the game, [[SoLastSeason this time Sephiroth just blocks all of Cloud's strikes and impales Cloud in response during the final blow]], then throws him into the air and hits Cloud with an Octaslash, slams him into the ground and does the "Tell me what you cherish most" speech, then time seems to freeze as Zack shows up to provide moral support to Cloud.
21--->'''Zack:''' So what if it looks hopeless? If it was me, I still wouldn't give up. Embrace your dreams, and no matter what happens, protect your honor as [=SOLDIER=]. Well, ok, you never made [=SOLDIER=], but it's what's in here [Puts fist over heart] that counts.\
22'''Cloud:''' Zack...\
23'''Zack:''' So, need any help?\
24'''Cloud:''' No. '''[Cloud starts to stand up and shakes his head "no"]'''\
25'''Zack:''' You already beat him once didn't you? This should be a cinch!\
26'''Cloud:''' Yeah.\
27'''Zack:''' Cloud, you know what I told you.\
28'''Cloud:''' That's right, I am your living legacy.
29** [[HeroicSecondWind Then from here, Cloud attacks Sephiroth and draws him into the air and unleashes Omnislash Ver. 5 and finishes Sephiroth off.]]
30* Another awesome moment happens right after. Sephiroth has Cloud at his mercy after their spectacular final battle, and asks Cloud what is that he cherishes most, so he can have the pleasure of taking it away from him. This cause Cloud to have a brief flashback to all his loved ones, present and lost, giving him the strength to pull the Masamune out of his shoulder and take Sephiroth down with his new Omnislash. The look on the One Winged Angel's face was truly, truly priceless.
31-->"[[ShutUpHannibal I pity you. You just don't get it...there isn't a]] ''[[ShutUpHannibal thing]]'' [[ShutUpHannibal I don't cherish!!]]"
32* Rude & Reno fighting off Loz & Yazoo. ''Especially'' when you factor in Yazoo & Loz essentially being mini-Sephiroths. [[BadassNormal That two normal dudes actually managed to hold them off, makes their fight impressive, despite their loss.]]
33-->'''Reno:''' Forget your little "Reunion" and GET A GRIP!
34* Speaking of Reno, flying a helicopter under an under pass '''''backwards'''''. [[ImprobablePilotingSkills How is that a thing?]]
35* ''The'' Rufus scene, the one that needs no description, to anyone who has seen the film it's "the Rufus scene". After spending the entire film helpless and in a wheelchair as Kadaj taunts him, he ''[[ThrowingOffTheDisability stands up]]'' and throws off his cloak, revealing that he's not nearly as debilitated as previously thought -- He's been carrying Jenova's remains for possibly ''the entire film'', at times literal inches from Kadaj's face. He waits for it to sink in before he smirks, remarks that [[BreakingSpeech "A]] ''[[BreakingSpeech good]]'' [[BreakingSpeech son would have known,"]] and casually chucks the box off the building. Then he leaps off to dodge an enraged Kadaj's attack, pulling out his shotgun and firing at him as he falls, confident the Turks will be there to save him. And they are. '''Bad.''' '''''Ass.'''''
36* [[BerserkButton "YOU SON]] [[LetsGetDangerous OF A BITCH!"]]
37* The entire final fight scene. The number of buildings that get sliced in half through sheer force of ''awesome'' is impressive.
38* Several of the characters use slight variants of their old Limit Breaks from the original game: aside from Omnislash, Cloud uses Blade Beam and what appears to be Braver, whilst Barret fires off a few Big Shots at Bahamut SIN.
39** Cloud actually gets two Bravers (one gets deflected off Kadaj, one knocks Bahamut to the ground) and two Blade Beams (the one in Forgotten City, then the three-beam version when he tries to hit Sephiroth and doesn't know where he's coming from). He uses a tornado-less version of Finishing Touch to launch Kadaj a thousand feet away just before the final fight. He also Climhazzards Bahamut's ass, and Tifa pounding Loz into the ground is basically her whole Limit Break combo just short of Final Heaven.
40*** Even Aerith seems to get in on the fun. When Cloud and Kadaj start the previously mentioned fight in the church, the healing water she makes looks a lot like Great Gospel. What makes this scene even more awesome is how the water drives Kadaj away, and even seems to hurt him!
41*** During the bucket-brigade FastballSpecial, Aerith lends him a hand from ''within Tremor Flare''. [[FridgeBrilliance She used Fury Brand]] to let him Climhazzard Bahamut's ass immediately after his Braver!
42* Mentioned but worth pointing out in detail. Tifa Vs Loz. The first one on one fight of the movie. These are two {{lightning bruiser}}s doing what they do best. All to a simple piano piece as opposed to a band or orchestra. Highlights include Loz whipping Tifa around by the leg and chucking her across the church fast enough that it causes a small shockwave that blasts the petals and leaves fo the flower bed into the air, to her making a ThreePointLanding against the ''wall'' from said toss.
43* When Cloud is chasing after Kadaj, the Turks sets off fireworks to distract the other two. The fireworks happen to go off as Cloud rides off the guardrail.
44** That was mostly the shockwave causing him to waver course, but it's still awesome the way he uses it to his advantage.
45* He may be evil, but you can't deny that when Sephiroth sprouts his wing in Complete, it can only be described as sadistic, villainous ''awesomeness''.
46** How about his very first line after he appears?
47--->"Good to see you...Cloud." *cue [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic One-Winged Angel]]*
48* A sublime one if you're not looking out for it: When Kadaj takes control of the kids, they start looking for Jenova's head. They gather around the Meteorfall monument, prompting the Sephiroth Brothers to assume Jenova is buried beneath it. Then Shinra reveals he's got his under his cloak the whole time, and you realize ''even before they broke free'', the kids knew Kadaj was bullshitting them and ''defied orders''.
