I’m glad you enjoyed it Foleymo. Actually, there is a classical oratory structure which has been used since ancient times; it is probably drawn on by screenwriters when they need to write a rousing pre-battle speech.
I’m sad that they didn’t include Buffy (especially as they are only 2 women in that collection) - I remember that she made a really great speech near the end of the final season, to encourage the potentials to keep fighting.

Well I’ll be damned! That just turned my day right around!
I wonder if the Hollywood writers go by some formula when writing an inspirational speech for the big screen.

Excellent!
And I’ve seen every one of those movies…
Except ‘The Never-Ending Story’, of course.

Ah mon capitan, but you recognised it, which is almost as bad.
