1* West deducing that President Grant is really Gordon in disguise from a small detail: his class ring. Gordon was wearing a Harvard ring. President Grant graduated from West Point.
2* West and Gordon's attack on the Loveless's SpiderTank, using a flying machine Gordon ''just'' put together. Sure it didn't do all that much in the end but, it was awesome.
3* Gordon, who detests violence and guns, is holding Loveless at gunpoint with a single-shot derringer as Loveless is pounding on West. After a tense build-up and West calling for Gordon to [[WhyDontYaJustShootHim just shoot him]], Gordin takes aim and fires...
4-->'''Loveless:''' After all that, you missed?
5-->'''Gordon:''' [[ExactlyWhatIAimedAt Actually, I didn't]].
6-->''Loveless looks down and notices Gordon shot his mechanical legs and they're leaking hydraulic fluid, causing them to lower power and sink to the ground, allowing West to be free.''
7-->'''West:''' ''(to Gordon)'' Thank you.... your chivalry is about to be tested.
8* How about [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TTkSJybDRXo those opening credits]]? The [[SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic music]] makes it even ''better''.
9* One of the mooks shows off his martial arts skills and claims he "learned that from a China man." West's reaction? Hit him in the face with a shovel and [[DeadpanSnarker snark]], "I just made that up."
10* President Grant's reaction upon being confronted by a lunatic Confederate terrorist riding a ''huge'' mechanical spider:
11-->'''Grant:''' ''[prfectly calm]'' Yes, Dr. Loveless. Fine-looking spider you have there. What can I do for you today?
12** And then moments later, he snarks at the man who has said giant mechanical spider, while all his men are [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere running for the hills.]]
13-->'''Grant''': You have me at a bit of a disadvantage. [[DeadpanSnarker I didn't bring my flyswatter.]]
14** When Loveless reveals his plan for a DividedStatesOfAmerica that returns the land to its original European, Mexican, and Native American owners, he decides to make it "as legal as possible" and have Grant sign a formal surrender to them. Grant's response before Loveless and all the enemies of the United States supporting his scheme?
15-->'''Grant''': Never will I sign that paper, never will the United States '''ever''' surrender!
16* RidingIntoTheSunset on a giant mechanical spider was not only a subversion, it was an ''awesome'' one.
17* Even if you don't care for the film, the theme song by Music/WillSmith, "Wild Wild West", is very catchy with a very entertaining video with a lot of effort and money spent on the look, production and costumes. See it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_zXKtfKnfT8 here]].
18* Doubles as a Funny Moment. Loveless offers Jim and Artie the chance of survival by swearing loyalty to him. Jim's response ?
