Got You

The Moment: In Superman: The Movie, our hero makes his first public appearance saving Lois Lane from certain death in a helicopter accident. "Easy miss, I've got you," he promises. "You've got me? Who's got you?!"

Why It's Great: The build-up, with its sublime sight gag about a modern phone box being a poor changing room, and the iconic shot of Clark Kent ripping open his shirt to reveal the 'S' underneath.

Dani's ears prick up every time the words 'final' and 'fantasy' are mentioned in the same sentence. Great when talking about JRPGs, but it becomes a real hassle when discussing the finals of your fantasy football league. Cloud would totally be a better striker than Rooney.
