Line 18:
See [[Literally Falling in Love]] for a [[Sub Trope]]. Contrast with [[Lost Love Montage]].
{{examples
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
Line 34:
* Parodied in [[Mel Brooks]]' ''[[Silent Movie (Film)|Silent Movie]]'', where the individual scenes of Mel and his girlfriend each turn absurd (they're riding a carousel together and then the carousel horse starts pooping blocks of wood; a frolic in the park turns into a race, complete with hurdles and a finish line; and so on).
* Arguably, the "This Is My Idea" musical number from ''[[The Swan Princess]]''. It starts out with the two main characters being introduced to each other as children, both of them despising the other upon sight, and goes on to show them growing up, eventually falling in love. All the while their respective parents and kingdoms sing about how their arranged marriage is so perfect...especially as it could result in lower taxes!
* The [[So Bad
* Given that it's a parody of [[James Bond]], ''[[Austin Powers|Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery]]'' plays this fairly straight as Austin treats Vanessa Kensington to a night on the town.
* Used in the [[Disney Animated Canon]] film ''[[Beauty and The Beast (Disney)|Beauty and The Beast]],'' against the song of "Something There", which tends to confuse fans as to just how long Belle lives in the castle.
Line 57:
* The montage in ''[[Saved]]!'' is a cross between this and the [[Lost Love Montage]] - the characters shown are all in love with people that are [[All Love Is Unrequited|unavailable or estranged.]]
* Subverted in ''The Break-Up'', which opens with a [[Meet Cute]], followed by one of these to ''You're My Best Friend'', followed immediately by...well, I think you can figure this one out on your own.
* Seen in ''Walk Hard: The Legend of Dewey Cox'' between Dewey and Darlene. As it happens, their montage includes such questionable activities as [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|licking, sucking, slurping ice-cream cones with very ambiguous expressions...]]
** Not to mention the [[Does This Remind You of Anything?|highly suggestive carpentry]].
* The beginning of the [[Pixar]] film ''[[Up]]'' has one where Carl falls in love with and marries Ellie... and it results in severe [[Mood Whiplash]] since Carl is a widower by the time the plot starts.
* ''[[Madeas Family Reunion]]'' has this with Vanessa and Frankie, and an inversion with Lisa and her abusive husband Carlos showing him abusing her.
Line 96:
* A lampshade was hung on this in an episode of ''Chilly Beach'': "Would you like to have a romantic montage with me?''
* ''[[The Batman (Animation)|The Batman]]'' features a Evil version for The Joker and Harley Quinn, where <s>they</s> ''she'' not only falls in love, [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7i4rsKKM26k but they destroy most of Gotham in the process. Set to the Joker singing Hank Williams', "Settin' The Woods On Fire.] And it is ''[[Crowning Moment of Awesome|awesome.]]''
* Dr. Doofenshmirtz and his (unnamed) evil girlfriend share one of these in the ''[[Phineas and Ferb]]'' episode "Chez Platypus" {{spoiler|only to have it [[Yank the
{{quote| '''Doofenshmirtz:''' I found my other half, yes, I got an evil love!}}
* In ''[[Happy Tree Friends]]'', Handy and Petunia get one of these in ''I Nub You''. This being Happy Tree Friends, however, it ends abruptly. And gruesomely.
