  • The movie itself is not the greatest, but it provides Reed Richards with one of the greatest moments he's had in any medium (although it should be noted that it was originally from a comic book):
    General Hager: Let me make it clear for you and your pack of freaks here. I'm the quarterback. You're on my team, got it? But I guess you never played football in high school, did you, Richards?
    Reed Richards: No, you're right, I didn't. I stayed inside and studied, like a good little nerd. And fifteen years later, I'm one of the greatest minds of the 21st century, I'm engaged to the hottest girl on the planet, and the big jock who played quarterback in high school? Well, he's standing right in front of me asking me for my help. And I say he's not gonna get a damn thing, unless he does exactly what I tell him, and starts treating my friends and me, with some respect.
    [Pause]
    General Hager: Give him what he wants.
    [The general storms off]
    Susan Storm: I am so hot for you right now.
    Johnny Storm: Me too!
  • Johnny taking on all four of their abilities to take on Dr. Doom.
    Johnny: To quote a friend of mineā€¦ *becoming visible* It's clobberin' time!
    • Even after loaning his powers over to Johnny, Ben lands the final blow to Dr. Doom by jumping into the cockpit of a crane and clotheslining the supervillain with a steel beam, sending him flying into the bay.
      Ben: You ain't going down fighting, kid. Not without me!
  • The chase sequence between Johnny and the Silver Surfer.
  • It's implied that Susan had been concentrating on hiding her zit for a good chunk of the film. This means that, while she's been doing her superpowered feats, such as the ability to walk on air, she's doing that along with being able to concentrate on her zit.
