There are a lot to choose from. Films are full of desperate moments where one character rallies the troops, all aspiring to Shakespeare's Henry V band-of-brothers riff. What are the best of them?

Listen, Street Fighter obviously has its faults, but I did always like Guile's speech to the troops.

There came a time when the Old Gods died! The Brave died with the Cunning! The Noble perished locked in battle with unleashed Evil! It was the last day for them! An ancient era was passing in fiery holocaust!
