Jumanji/Awesome
- Alan and the Hunter's final faceoff.
Hunter: End of the line, Sonny Jim. Game's up. Start running.
Alan: (pause) No.
Hunter: Aren't you afraid?
Alan: I'm terrified. But my father says you should always face what you're afraid of.
Hunter: ...Good lad. You're finally acting like a man. Any last words?
Alan looks down and notices his game piece moving to the end of the board, after which the word "Jumanji" appears.
Alan: ...Jumanji.
Hunter: Huh?
Alan: JUMANJI!
- Alan busting out his ancestor's Civil War saber to deal with the plants. "Sorry, Angus. Harvest time!"
- Crowning Moment of Awesome: Possibly when Judy tells Aunt Nora that she didn't lie when she found out the only reason they were able to get the house dirt cheap was because a supposed murder took place.
Aunt Nora: Alright that's it, I am sick and tired of your lies, young lady! You're grounded!
Judy: Fine! There's nowhere to go in this stupid town anyway! And just for your information: that wasn't a lie!
(Nora lifts her head up)
- When Van Pelt fires at Alan, Sarah attempts a Heroic Sacrifice by leaping in the way. She had no way of knowing there was going to be a Reset Button, and if there hadn't been, but Alan hadn't rolled the right number to reach Jumanji, her turn would have been next. Even if the game skipped her (and Judy), she had no way of knowing if Alan and Peter still playing would have ended everything and brought them back to life, but she still did it anyway. Aside from showing she loved Alan, that's pretty awesome coming from someone who was so traumatized she had to spend two thousand hours in therapy for 26 years--and it's also her making up for having fled and left Alan in the jungle all that time.
