{{examples}}
== [[Anime]] and [[Manga]] ==
* Possible variation: in ''[[Naruto (Anime)|Naruto]]'': Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow, the movie director keeps yelling "Keep filming, keep filming!" every time someone attacks the princess/actress Naruto's group is protecting.
* A variation (sans the stock phrase) appears in ''[[Penguin Revolution]]'' when Ryo and his rival Narazaki get into a fight on the set of the [[Sentai]] show they're filming. Since the episode being filmed calls for their characters to fight, the director of the episode immediately demands that the cameras start rolling.
* Used in an episode of ''[[Pokémon (Animeanime)|Pokémon]]''. The English dub had the reporter comment that Team Rocket was making a dramatic exit through the roof - then she [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|turned to the camera and said gleefully]] "Just like our ratings will!"
* This is what happens in ''[[Digimon Adventure 02]]'' when some rogue Digimon crash a Christmas Eve concert.
 
== [[Comic Books]] ==
* An issue of ''[[Runaways (Comic Book)|Runaways]]'' uses this, only with a little bit more swearing.
* Used to tragic effect during the Onslaught Saga, with longtime X-Men character Trish Tilby's video report appearing to show the X-Men betraying and murdering the Fantastic Four and Avengers.
 
== [[Film]] ==
* ''[[Die Hard (Film)|Die Hard]]'': A reporter asks his cameraman this twice - played straight after a massive explosion inside Nakatomi Plaza, and then sarcastically after being punched in the face by Holly Gennero.
* In ''[[Pearl Harbor]]'', while the Japanese are attacking the titular location, one of the characters is filming the planes coming in with a camera yelling "This is great footage!"
* ''[REC] 2'' has a priest following a SWAT team through an apartment building, constantly ordering a camerman to film various things they encounter.
* In ''[[The Rocketeer (Filmfilm)|The Rocketeer]]'' when the eponymous hero takes to the air with his [[Jet Pack]] to rescue a friend at an air show.
 
== [[Literature]] ==
Line 25:
* Done on ''[[Babylon 5]]'', when an Earth reporter gets rare footage of Ambassador Kosh.
* Asked repeatedly by D'Anna Biers, the reporter in the ''[[Battlestar Galactica Reimagined]]'' episode "Final Cut".
* Said by the remote operators who find the {{spoiler|faked}} wreckage of Oceanic 815 in the ''[[Lost (TV)|Lost]]'' episode "Confirmed Dead."
* Used in a sketch on ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'', where the premise is the gang at a frat party and someone is recording the events. One character makes a double entendre, and Jimmy Fallon's character turns to the camera and says "Tommy, please tell me you got that!"
** In one of the ''[[Jeopardy (TV)!|Celebrity Jeopardy!]]'' sketches, Will Ferrell as Alex Trebek has this response to a Final Jeopardy! response that could actually be interpreted as correct. ("Where are you?" "Indoors.")
* Done to perfection in an episode of ''[[Sanctuary]]'', where the reporter witnesses a number of nasty things, is duly horrified and then, as soon as she ''can'' speak again, asks "did we get that?".
* ''[[The Suite Life On Deck]]'': When Baily's possessed by a an ancient princess, she attacks Zack (as he's being interviewed by a local reporter for discovering an ancient artifact.) Her response?
Line 33:
 
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* Used during part one of the ''[[Duck TalesDuckTales]]'' [[Five Episode Pilot]] "Treasure of the Golden Suns", during Scrooge and his nephews' confrontation with the Beagle Boys at the candy factory.
* Averted in ''[[Frisky Dingo]]''.
