Astro Boy (film)/Awesome

Astro Boy (original manga)
"Skunk: Get out of here, you monster!
 * Volume 15: Astro Boy smashes through a triple layered safe to get to criminal Skunk.

Astro Boy: Who're you calling a monster?"


 * In the same volume, Mustachio tosses a robot bigot through a bus the long way. "Idiot! You're dealing with a judo expert!"

2003 series
"Pavlos: I don't understand. I must have tested that chip a hundred times.
 * Astro is getting his butt badly kicked by a mind-controlled Atlas. Pavlos, creator of the mind-control chip, is closing in for the kill, when suddenly Atlas is no longer responding to his commands...

Tenma: (taking over his screen) Then you should be happy to know it's still functional. But I am blocking its signal."

"Yoko: Put a muzzle on it, Tenma."
 * Then he destroys all of the chips with a long range wave. Effortlessly.
 * Dr O'Shay's secretary Yoko gets one when she disregards his orders to evacuate, and returns to save him from Tenma's robot dog. With a laser gun.


 * Rainbow Parakeet has planted bombs all over the robot revolutionary Blue Knight's sanctuary and is about to press the button on the detonator, taunting Astro that the only way to stop him is to kill him and prove he's just as ruthless as Blue Knight. Astro opens fire on him and apparently misses. Cue maniacal laughter as the villain presses the button. Click, click, click. Turns out Astro decided to Take a Third Option and was actually firing at the communications antenna that would relay the remote detonator's signal.

Astro Boy (2009 film)
"Zog: I'm Old School."
 * After . The interaction between  makes this the Crowning Moment of Heartwarming too.
 * Astro Astro is Badass Adorable, plain and simple.
 * Zog, the giant robot Astro revived, is about to crush Hammegg who wronged them underneath his foot. Hammegg protests that he can't, due to the laws of robotics, which have apparently been in use for 50 years. Zog, who was built far earlier than that (100 years), simply says:


 * The fact that he's voiced by Samuel L. Jackson probably made it far more Badass than it would be if it were anyone else.
 * The scene where Astro learns to fly and then spends a few minutes playing in the clouds, with the scene culminating in his iconic tunnel-through-the-mountain. Whatever your overall opinion of the movie is, if you didn't find this sequence thrilling something is wrong.
