Crowning Moments of Awesome (Major SSE Spoilers)

Dr. Furball · 04-21-2008, 09:59 PM

According to tvtropes.org (most addictive site ever) a Crowning Monent of Awesome is "The moment when a fictional character does something for which they will be remembered forever, winning for them the eternal loyalty of fans," such as Yoda taking out two Imperial Guards with a flick of his wrist in Episode III, y'know, stuff like that.

So, what are some Crowning Moments in Subspace Emissary's story? In my opinion, Captain Falcon's entrance/R.O.B disposal, Bowser using the princess trophy against Mario, and of course Kirby slicing through the gunship on the Dragoon are good examples.

Your turn.

The Bowser/Princess moment was freaking awesome... especially the escape part.

The cutscenes "Link's/Mario's misunderstanding" are awesome, though I'm partial to Link myself (OMG SWORD).

Ness pushes Lucas out of the way and sacrifices himself to save Lucas. I actually cried at that part. But I'm also partial to Earthbound and Mother 3 (OMG Little Homey with his baseball bat)

But the best part was when Diddy grabbed Fox and then Falco and dragged them off looking pissed. -CSM

Dedede smacking Bowser on the nose. Priceless.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

That scene with that gunship shooting at everyone was cool.

As was the scene where Marth and MK try to stop the Ancient Minister's bomb. Oh, and that scene where DeDeDe owned Luigi.

The part where Lucas and PT are about to fall and become ground stuff that you don't want to step in but then Meta-Knight saves them and the theme music plays and Wario Dies. yeah that was awesome.

^I think you're not done yet.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

When Shiek is drinking tea on the Halberd.

Psssh. Yoda didn't have any moments of awesome in the prequel trilogy. In Ep. One, he was scenery; in Ep. Two he displayed a penchant for twirling and leaping around like a fag during combat; and in Ep. Three he somehow missed the giant galaxy-spanning conspiracy against the Jedi and then, after getting his sh*t totally ruined by the Emperor, he scampered off to Dagobah like a scared little bitch. Goddamn prequels turned him into even more of a suck-ass sissy than they did to Vader.

But Yoda will be redeemed in Soul Caliber

Robotazy · 04-22-2008, 12:56 PM

Don't we all start out as sissies?

In the beginning?

***Booyakasha*** · 04-22-2008, 01:04 PM

Yoda was already like 900 years old at the start of TPM. He ended up as a weapons-grade titty, is what I'm saying, not that he started out as one.

Taboo turning everyone into a trophy by flapping his wings.

Eagle Eye · 04-23-2008, 08:18 PM

1. Kirby owning the **** out of Ganondorf
2. Wario tackling Dedede and taunting him
3. Snake's entrance and getting discovered by Lucario
4. Diddy's entrance.

ROB appearing after his disguise is burnt off. (I was surprised, thinking ROBs were merely slaves)

I liked Wario's indifference to seeing Master Hand's corpse better. It was one of the few in-character things he did.

Not to mention Donkey Kong knocking Diddy out of the way of Bowser's Dark Cannon, only to get hit with it himself.

Meta Knight vs Marth.

Shiek's attack on the Arwing.

Falco's introduction.

Kinda disappointing that Mario, of all people didn't have one.

Speed · 04-24-2008, 10:28 AM

The flip thing he did on the skyworld Player select.

Bowser messing with trophy Ganondorf, for betraying him.
