** ''Theatre/AMidsummerNightsDream'': The fairy queen Titania and the donkey-headed Nick Bottom lounging in each other's arms, Bottom having been transformed by Puck and Titania having been enchanted to love him.

** The infamous ComicBook/OneMoreDay, that featured [[{{Supercouple}} Peter and Mary Jane]] [[DealWithTheDevil selling their marriage to Sinestro to save Aunt May's life]]. Still to this day it's considered the worst and most nonsensical moment in all of Spider-Man canon.

* ''ComicBook/SpiderMan'': [[ComicBook/TheNightGwenStacyDied The death of Gwen Stacy]] in ''ComicBook/TheAmazingSpiderMan'' #121, notable for the much-debated [=SNAP!=] sound effect and the final panels with [[PietaPlagiarism Spider-Man holding Gwen's body]]. This moment in general is one of the signature scenes in all of comics as there had never been a death as big as Gwen's, the {{Hero}}'s Principle LoveInterest, in any Comic Storyline up to that point and was a significant change in the landscape of the medium, as many stated it singlehandedly ushered in the end of the Silver-Age of Comics.

* LetsPlay/PartyCrashers:

** ''WesternAnimation/TheHunchbackOfNotreDameDisney'': Frollo's VillainSong ''Hellfire'', really establishes why Frollo is such a terrifying Disney antagonist.

** ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'': The very first shot of the entire movie: a sunrise over the African savanna. Combined with the Oscar-nominated "Circle of Life" and breathtaking visuals, it's one of the most famous openings in all of Disney animation, and establishes the story's grandiose story and tone right from the start. Rafiki presenting the baby Simba to the animals of the Pride Lands as the music swells triumphantly is just as iconic. In fact, the entire "Circle of Life" sequence forms one of the movie's first trailers in its entirety. others such as Scar's VillainSong ''Be Prepared'' for his EstablishingCharacterMoment and Mufasa's death for Disney's biggest TearJerker since Bambi's mom.

** ''WesternAnimation/{{Bambi}}'': The death of Bambi's mother, notable for being one of the studio's earliest big tearjerkers along with the DisneyDeath of WesternAnimation/{{Snow White|AndTheSevenDwarfs}}, and being the first character in a major animated picture to [[KilledOffForReal die for real]].

** [[EtTuBrute Nick betraying Brent]] on the minigame Honeycomb Havoc in "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5eLmrSOn9vw&t=812s Don't EVER betray me in Mario Party]]". Not only do future Honeycomb Havoc often include similar edits, but it also cemented Nick's status as the most toxic of them.

Sophist's subsequent defense of it being an [[InsaneTrollLogic "optimal play"]] would cement his status as the TokenEvilTeammate and MemeticTroll of the group.

** ''WesternAnimation/{{Dumbo}}'': has two. One is the "Baby Mine" scene, where Dumbo's caged mother sings to comfort her lonely calf, for the sheer emotion on display. This is immediately by "Pink Elephants On Parade", where Dumbo drinks water laced with alcohol and bears witness to one of the most infamous MushroomSamba sequences in the company's history, absolutely loaded with DerangedAnimation.

[[FailedASpotCheck only to realize immediately afterwards that the arrow was pointing away from him]], [[EpicFail resulting in him losing a Star rather than gaining one]], causing him to scream in despair over his mistake.

** The FinalBattle of ''Fragmented Truths''. Riku has an [[WhyCantIHateYou emotional]] [[FightingYourFriend confrontation]] with Riku Replica within Castle Oblivion in the culmination of the latter's [[FakeMemories struggles]] throughout the story. As they fight, the scenery around them morphs into different locations from their memories and as the castle crumbles around them, the area turns into an AmazingTechnicolorBattlefield. Meanwhile, Roxas reluctantly fights Kairi, Donald and Goofy to prevent them from interfering. [[spoiler:Kairi even summons her Keyblade in an awesome moment.]]

** TheReveal in ''All That's Left'', where it becomes apparent that Xemnas [[spoiler:is actually [[FallenHero Terra's]] [[TheSoulless Nobody]], left a broken shell of a man after breaking free from Xehanort's control.]]

** Arguably equally, if not possibly more, iconic than them playing on top her butt, is the CruelTwistEnding where [[spoiler:Pam/Val starts devouring the guys one after the other, with each band member getting a DeathInTheLimelight as she singles him out and eats him.]]
** Branching off from the above, in that scene, the two stand-out moments are when [[spoiler:she eats the Popoff brothers,]] Jeremy getting [[spoiler:[[VaccumMouth slurped up]] by her while he's trying to hide, followed by her [[SpitOutAShoe spitting out]] his Sandbox/SignatureShoe,]] and when she [[spoiler:[[DangledByAGiant picks up A.Jay,]] gives him a smile, then tosses him into the air and catches him in her mouth.]] The latter was even used as the ending for the "What We Like About Pam" music video in the Series/ComedyCentralRoastOfPamelaAnderson.

** ''Theatre/{{Hamlet}}'': Hamlet's "To be or not to be" soliloquy, and his "Alas, poor Yorick!" speech in which he contemplates a skull. (Which are sometimes [[BeamMeUpScotty wrongly assumed]] to be the same speech.) Ophelia' mad scene and [[spoiler: her drowning, as described by Gertrude,]] are particularly famous too.
** ''Theatre/KingLear'': The mad Lear wandering the storm-swept heath accompanied by the Fool; Lear carrying [[spoiler: Cordelia's dead body]] in his arms in the final scene.

** ''Theatre/{{Othello}}'': Othello's [[spoiler: murder of Desdemona in her bed]] and his [[spoiler: subsequent [[DrivenToSuicide suicide]] after he learns the truth of her innocence.]]
** ''Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet'': The [[BalconyWooingScene "balcony scene"]] where Romeo and Juliet affirm their love for each other, and the climactic scene [[spoiler: in the Capulets' tomb, where the lovers [[DrivenToSuicide commit suicide]].]]

[[spoiler:[[FailedASpotCheck only to realize immediately afterwards that the arrow was pointing away from him]], [[EpicFail resulting in him losing a Star rather than gaining one]], causing him to scream in despair over his mistake.]]

** ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'': The very first shot of the entire movie: a sunrise over the African savanna. Combined with the Oscar-nominated "Circle of Life" and breathtaking visuals, it's one of the most famous openings in all of Disney animation, and establishes the story's grandiose story and tone right from the start. Rafiki presenting the baby Simba to the animals of the Pride Lands as the music swells triumphantly is just as iconic. In fact, the entire "Circle of Life" forms one of the movie's first trailers in its entirety.

*** The "Friend Like Me" number. It contrasts to the other numbers with its DenserAndWackier tone, but it also fully establishes The Genie as the most fun and most unique character of the entire movie at the time. As some have analyzed, this scene was much more of a Warner Bros. in energy, but it also solidified the movie as a proto-Dreamworks movie which would dominate animated movies the decade after this film came out.
*** The ""A Whole New World" musical number, largely regarded as one of the most well-known Disney songs ever, and ''the'' SignatureSong of the entire film. This is largely due to its breathtaking visuals, the FallingInLoveMontage of Aladdin and Jasmine, and the captivating lyrics.
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Bambi}}'': The death of Bambi's mother, notable for being one of the earliest biggest tearjerkers since ''[[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs Snow White]]'', and being the first animated major character to [[KilledOffForReal die for real]].
** ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'': Belle and the Beast's dance in the ballroom to the song "Beauty and the Beast". A kind of culmination of them learning to enjoy each other, along with some stunning use of computer effects during the dance only heightened the experience in showing how far the beast has come in learning to love. In addition, this helped solidify this song as THE song from this musical.
*** In particular during the scene, [[TheOner the sweeping shot of the "camera" panning down from the ceiling to the floor to below Belle and the Beast]]. Angles like this had never been seen in an animated film before.
** ''WesternAnimation/ChickenLittle'' has Runt and Abby singing a karaoke version of "Wannabe", which sticks out in people's minds because it comes out of nowhere, even by the film's standards, and is ''very'' close to being a BigLippedAlligatorMoment, the only thing removing it from that status being that Chicken Little has to interrupt them to talk about the hi-tech piece of the sky that fell in his room.

** ''WesternAnimation/{{Dumbo}}'':
*** The "Baby Mine" scene, which is one of the most infamous TearJerker moments in the Disney canon.
*** Followed immediately by "Pink Elephants On Parade", which is one of the most infamous MushroomSamba sequences in DerangedAnimation history.
** From ''WesternAnimation/{{Fantasia}}'', "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" sequence staring Mickey Mouse is the most recognized. Mickey in the Sorcerer's Hat has become iconic and has made many appearances since then. Likewise, Sorcerer Yen Sid has become a recurring character in Disney media in his own right.
*** "Night on Bald Mountain". While not as recognized, its dark sequence on Chernabog, playing with the dead, corrupting beauty, and torturing souls with dramatic and horrific animation makes it one of the darkest and most memorable scenes in Disney history.
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'': The "Let It Go" song. Using CGI to model Ice magnificently, it's actually the song that changed the entire plot of the movie. As Idina Menzel's vulnerable but enthusiastic performance of the song ended up turning her from an antagonist into a tragic character meant to grow alongside her sister.
** ''WesternAnimation/TheGreatMouseDetective'': The climactic battle in Big Ben, which was one of the first major uses of Computer Animation in history, to animate the gears.
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Hercules}}'': The battle with the Hydra. The midpoint of the movie, and in contrast to much of the movie around it, this was a serious challenge for the SuperStrength hero. With its pretty good use of CGI, it had some SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome, and despite the panic and thrill of the atmosphere, ends with a glorious musical part which signified Herc's second big step towards becoming a true hero.
** ''WesternAnimation/LadyAndTheTramp'' has the scene where the dogs kiss while eating the same strand of spaghetti. The scene endeared itself to everyone so much that it tends to be the one that gets parodied whenever a work makes a shout-out to ''Lady and the Tramp'', and it's a [[SpaghettiKiss trope on this wiki]].
** ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'': The very first shot of the entire movie: an African sunrise. Combined with the music and visuals, it's one of the most famous openings in all of Disney animation and establishes the grandiose setting for the story right from the start.

*** The "Part Of Your World" reprise sequence, where Ariel homages the "Little Mermaid" statue in Copenhagen.
*** The Storm sequence. A moment that had been in the Disney Archive since Walt's era that inspired the entire picture.
** ''WesternAnimation/PeterPan'': The "You Can Fly" sequence. The most famous song of the film, with some pretty creative use of flying animation, and setting the tone of wonder and excitement that would pervade the rest of the movie.
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Pocahontas}}'': The "Colors of the Wind" sequence; the animators knew how pivotal this moment would be that one of the trailers was nothing but the song and animation in an abridged form.
** ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'': The "Friends on the Other Side" song. Keith David's big VillainSong, it's a swinging, spooky, visually stunning number that makes the crucial plot step of creating the titular frog, and establishes Dr. Facilier as a worthy part of the Disney villain pantheon.
** ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'': The entire movie really, when talking about animated history, as it was the first fully traditionally animated motion picture, but if one single moment is to be highlighted from the film, its the sequence in which the Prince comes and delivers love's first kiss with Snow White, that set the standard of OneTrueLove in cinema.
*** There's the scene of the dwarves mourning the apparent death of Snow White, notable for being Disney's first ever cinematic TearJerker, and her DisneyDeath in general kickstarted the tradition of "Fake deaths" in future animated media.
