* In ''[[The Princess and the Frog]]'', Naveen has just landed in a swamp, and he is explaining to Tiana about why he is penniless although a prince.
{{quote|'''Naveen:''' My family cut me off for being a ''(sees leech attached to his elbow)'' [[Instant Leech Just Fall in Water|LEECH]]!}}
* ''[[Shaun of the Dead]]'' has an example similar to the Mad Magazine entry above, as well as Ed interrupting a quasi-lover's quarrel with appropriate annoyed grunts.
* ''[[The Simpsons Movie]]'': "What kind of father wouldn't care about... A PIG WEARING A HAT!"
* ''[[Monsters, Inc.]].'': Mike is wooing Celia over dinner, telling her: "Just the other day, someone asked me who is the most beautiful girl in all of Monstropolis, and I said...(Mike notices Sullivan peeking through the window) Sully?" Celia is understandably not too pleased.
* ''[[The Iron Giant]]'': Hogarth's prayer includes several examples of this, but he keeps finding ways to fit his sudden shouts into his prayer.
** Sitting at the dinner table, he looks over his mom's shoulder and sees the giant's hand in the kitchen. "Oh my God! Uh- Oh, my God, we thank you for this food. And- STOP! ...the devil... from doing bad things?" Then Hogarth sees the giant's arm crawling through the kitchen over his mom's shoulder and he yells, "GET OUT OF HERE- ... Satan..."
* In ''[[Balto]]: Wolf Quest'', Balto is reluctant to give his and Jenna's puppies up for adoption. He discusses his feelings with her while said puppies and Boris the snow goose are playing in the background.
{{quote|'''Jenna''': Each one of our children [[Let Her Grow Up, Dear|have their own lives to live]]. It's our job to love them, and then...
'''Boris''' (being chewed on by the puppies): LET GO!!! }}
* From ''[[Shrek]]'':
Line 73:
{{quote|'''Minister''': "Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to witness Princess Vespa, daughter of King Roland...going right past the altar, heading down the ramp and out the door!"
'''Minister''': "We are here to join these two together in holy--MOLY!!" }}
* In Buffy:
{{quote|'''Jenny:''' And the first thing we're gonna do today is... Buffy!
'''Xander:''' Did I fall asleep already? }}
Line 84:
 
== Live Action TV ==
* Venezuelan [[Sketch Show]] ''[[Cheverisimo]]'' had a lot of sketches in that vein. The most famous of those was one where a pair talked about third person and their naïveté (or about some naive act they committed themselves), and when they were to say "because I/you/he/she/them are such a..." they were always interrupted by a bag salesman crying "Bolsa!". (In Venezuela, "bolsa", besides his "bag" meaning, is also an euphemism for "idiot" or "naively dumb").
** A similar sketch has people discussing someone's hotness and what they intended to do with that person, when they were interrupted by a machete-bearing country salesman crying "¡Machete!", who was covering his groin. ("Darle machete" is a somewhat rude way of saying [[Intercourse with You]]).
* Often inverted hilariously on the "Whose Line" sketch of ''[[Whose Line Is It Anyway?|Whose Line Is It Anyway]]'', a game where performers have to perform a skit and, at various times, pull out some lines previously written by the audience and use them as if they were what they had been about to say. Much of the humour in this game involves totally storyline-inappropriate lines being pulled out, and the performers trying to segue them in with the rest of the performance. In [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iy0eY1oregU this game], for example, Ryan Stiles had to say he was dressed as a French maid during Davy Crockett's last stand at the Alamo due to one of the pre-written lines.
Line 92:
'''Lt. Randall Disher:''' What?
'''Natalie Teeger:''' On your face! On your lip!
'''Adrian Monk:''' It looks a little bit like a [[Badass Mustache|mustache]].
'''Lt. Randall Disher:''' Well, I'm in charge. It comes with the job. ''[Monk and Natalie continue to stare at him, dumbstruck]'' Okay, you're making me a little uncomfortable.
'''Natalie Teeger:''' You're making ''me'' a little uncomfortable! }}
** This is also the case in one scene in "Mr. Monk and the Bully", in season 7:
Line 120:
{{quote|'''Lisa:''' But perhaps most dangerous of all is the {{[[[Self-Demonstrating Article]] falls into a pit of}}] SCORPIONS!}}
* In an episode of ''[[Family Guy]]'', a Wall Street trader is on the phone to his company relaying some important information about the state of the stock market and is hit on the head by a stray golf ball causing him to say: "...so be sure to buy lots of [blow to the head] [[Non Sequitur Thud|Waffles! Tasty waffles with lots of syrup!]]" Cue a scene of Wall Street traders shouting "waffles!" and then, oddly, Japanese traders going crazy screaming "Waffur!".
* Happened in ''[[Daria]]'':
{{quote|'''Teacher:''' And then George Washington said ''(Jane walks in)'' young lady you're tardy.}}
