Here's my favorite:
The conflict of bright light and pure darkness.

Theres this one part of where I just stopped and said "Wow...!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

I've always been fond of some of the .hack//GU cutscenes.

Like this one.

And this one.

Hmm, FMVs... no particular order here:

Soulcalibur 3: the intro

Tekken 5: Wang Jinrei's ending

Dirge of Cerberus: During the ending, whenSpoiler: Vincent finally destroys Omega during its ascent

Spoiler: Final Fantasy VII-XII have altogether too many mind-blowing FMVs to mention them all here. The inntro, major twists and ending of each tend to be pretty amazingly depicted.

Lots of FFIX ones. But my favourite probably is:

YouTube - Final Fantasy XII Intro American Version

Its so amazing.

First vid was pretty cool.

From recent memory Im going to say the Sephiroth and Genesis battle in Crisis Core. You always think its about to end and then gets even more incredible. I dont think anything in Advent Children was an exhilarating as that CGI.

Oh yes! that fight scene is brilliant!

They also played the right music at the right time.

Sound is a huge compliment to these things =]

Without a doub the Sending in FF-X. I literally sat with my mouth open in awe when I saw it the first time.

Basically anything that Blizzard does tends to be fairly amazing. The opening cinematic in WoW, various ones from Diablo II... things such as that. They've always had some of the highest production values with the CGI scenes in their games.
