Good point, Wolf.

If moving through, and travelling greater than 5 feet, moving out is kind of implied there then, isn't it?

But what about truly ginormous critters? Like a dragon? One could move through the many threatened squares, without actually leaving the threat range. Would this be considered leaving the 1 threatened square when entering another (again, if moving more than 5ft)?

It is leaving ANY threatened square that provokes. Thus, if facing a gargantuan creature, just moving in to engage it in melee combat would cause you to enter and then leave several threatened squares, which would subject you to an AoO whenever you left one of those threatened squares to enter a new one... so, if it was a Storm Giant with multiple AoO's, you are SOL!

actually, you can only make on attack of opportunity against the same target once in a round. so though he might be moving through 3 or 4 threatened squares, he isnt going to get bashed to pieces if the giant had Combat Reflexes, he'll take a good smack coming in, but only one.

PHB, pp. 137-138

...if the same opponent provokes two attacks of opportunity from you - such as by moving out of a threatened square and then casting a spell in a threatened square - you could make two separate attacks of opportunity (since each one represents a different opportunity). Moving out of more than one square threatened by the same opponent in the same round doesn't count as more than one opportunity for that opponent.
