How about the end of Superman II? “Oh, I’ve been, uh, working out.” TV: The Seinfeld episode where George decides to do the opposite. He’s in the theater sitting in front of two loudmouths, and stands up and dismantles them. (~3:31 [here](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IjsThJQQJxw)). ---

I also love _dismantle_ in this context. ---

> [@Baldwin](#): > > One of my favorites is in Tombstone, when the Faro-dealing bully played by Billy Bob Thornton suddenly finds Wyatt Earp (Kurt Russell) in his face, and has to put up or shut up. Why Johnny. I forgot you were standing there. You may go. I also like the scene where the one Cowboy gets into Wyatt’s face trying to provoke a fight and Wyatt cracks him in the head with his own pistol. And of course the best scene is where Johnny Ringo points his gun in a drunken Doc Holliday’s face and then starts doing pistol tricks to the crowds delight. Holliday counters by matching him move for move with his little whisky cup. [QUOTE=Der Trihs] In _The Presidio_, when a local thug picks a fight with Sean Connery, who’s in uniform. “All right. But if I fight you, it’s going to only be with my **right** thumb. My **left** thumb is **much** too powerful for you.” And Connery proceeds to demolish the guy just with his thumb. [/QUOTE] There’s a similar scene in Rising Sun. Snipes and Connery are prevented from entering a suspects house by a security guard: Guard “You should know, I’m a black belt” Connery “Of course you are dear.” with predictable results ---

Does Jack-Jack beating up Syndrome in “The Incredibles” count? Because I adore that. ---

Sam Donovan’s speech to the network execs in Sports Night’s episode ‘Cliff Gardner’, especially the line: > [@](#): > > “One last thing, the first and last decision-making authority on this show will rest with Isaac Jaffee until Isaac Jaffee says otherwise, and if you disrespect him in my presence again, I will rededicate the rest of my life to ruining the rest of yours. And if you think I’m just mouthing at you, you should ask around about me. I have absolutely no conscience about these things.” I’m sure I’ll be back later with more. ---

[/QUOTE] “You gonna jerk that smoke wagon, or just stand there and bleed?” “…” “Yeah, I thought so.” I’m not a fan of westerns, but that whole scene is just awesome. Showcases the entire character of Wyatt in about 30 seconds. ---
