Astonishingly Appropriate Interruption: Difference between revisions

* 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.

* ''[[The Simpsons Movie (Film)|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.

* In ''[[Balto (Animation)|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.

* ''[[Ratatouille (Animation)|Ratatouille]]'':

* In the first ''[[Futurama (Animation)|Futurama]]'' movie:

* ''[[Scott Pilgrim vs. the World (Film)|Scott Pilgrim vs. the World]]'': "I don't think that anything will get in the way of how I- ''Shit!''"

* ''[[Spaceballs (Film)|Spaceballs]]'': The Minister is interrupted during the wedding...twice:

* ''[[Anne of Green Gables (Literature)|Anne of Green Gables]]'' uses the "not what they had been about to say" version when Matthew first drives Anne to Green Gables. She is pretty much [[Motor Mouth|talking non-stop]], and gets to: "...and Mrs. Spencer says...(sees an incredibly beautiful spread of apple trees in bloom) Oh, Mr. Cuthbert! Oh, Mr. Cuthbert! Oh, Mr. Cuthbert!" The narrator even [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshades the trope]] by pointing out: "[[Deadpan Snarker|This is not what Mrs. Spencer had said.]]"

* [[Dave Barry]] had an article that consisted of nothing but this. It's written in first person as Dave is scanning the radio looking for a good song, and as the stations switch between [[Insane Proprietor]] ads, strange [[The Bible (Literature)|Bible]] readings, and even stranger political ads, the transitions are almost seamless.

** 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? (TV)|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.

* One episode of ''[[Monk (TV)|Monk]]'', "Mr. Monk and the Miracle", features this in a scene where Monk and Natalie find Randy at the police station. It works because Randy has his back to them when the scene begins:

* The ''[[Mastermind (TV)|Mastermind]]'' [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y0C59pI_ypQ sketch] by [[The Two Ronnies]] where the contestant answers the question before last.

* In ''[[The Simpsons (Animation)|The Simpsons]]'' episode "The Scorpion's Tale", Lisa is wandering through the desert reading a book about the dangerous wildlife, ending with (paraphrased)
