Bandidas: Difference between revisions

(tropelist)
Line 12:
 
* [[The Ace]]: Bill Buck.
* [[Action Dress Rip|Action Wedding Dress Rip]].
* [[Action Girl|Action Girls]]: Maria and Sara, {{spoiler|but since we never see any of them doing any real action (and when we see it's not that impressive) this can be perceived as an [[Informed Ability]]. If they are or not [[Faux Action Girl|Faux Action Girls]] is debatable}}.
* [[Action Dress Rip|Action Wedding Dress Rip]].
* [[Betty and Veronica]]: Or should I say Maria and Sara. {{spoiler|Both girls fall in love with Quentin (he probably falls for them too) and start competing for whom is the best kisser (with Quentin as the judge of course). As it was expected he can't decide it. By the end it is [[Inverted Trope|Inverted]], because he already had his fiance [[Third Option Love Interest|Clarissa]], who was his first option, not the [[Take a Third Option|third]]}}.
* [[Captain Obvious]]: Clarissa
Line 20:
* [[The Ditz]]: Both girls have the ditzy moments, but specially Maria.
* [[Dumb Blonde]]: Clarissa seems to be one.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Not a beefy hunk per se, Quentin does provide a lot of [[Fan Service|manservice]] in just [[One-Scene Wonder|one scene]] (probably to compensate the enormous amount of [[Fan Service]] granted by Maria and Sara).
* [[Fake Nationality]]: Maria, the poor farm girl who has never being outside Mexico, is played by the very Spanish [[Penélope Cruz]], and while both [[Salma Hayek]] and her character are Mexican, Sara studied in Europe and had just recently came back.
* [[Fallen Princess]]: Sara.
* [[PowerFreudian Trio]]: Maria (Id) and Sara (Super-ego) already have their [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]] dynamics so when Quentin complete the trio he serves as [[The Heart]] (Ego) for them. Which is and isn't a good thing, since he keeps them together as a team, but {{spoiler|they fight for his affection in order to one-up each other}}.
* [[Girls with Guns]]: Though Sara can't shoot to save her life, [[Knife Nut|so she switches to throwing knives]] during actual combat.
* [[Hand or Object Underwear]]: Hand and BOWLER HAT Underwear.
Line 30:
* [[Lovely Angels]]: Maria and Sara.
* [[Missing Mom]]: We never see the girls' mothers. Sara's mother is said to have passed away, but Maria's nowhere to be found.
* [[Mr. Fanservice]]: Not a beefy hunk per se, Quentin does provide a lot of [[Fan Service|manservice]] in just [[One-Scene Wonder|one scene]] (probably to compensate the enormous amount of [[Fan Service]] granted by Maria and Sara).
* [[Non-Action Guy]]: Quentin.
* [[Not with the Safety On, You Won't|Not Without Any Bullets, You Wont]]
Line 36 ⟶ 37:
* [[Outlaw|Outlaws]]
** <s>[[Bandito|Banditos]]:</s> Bandidas: Subverted to the core.
* [[Power Trio]]: Maria (Id) and Sara (Super-ego) already have their [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]] dynamics so when Quentin complete the trio he serves as [[The Heart]] (Ego) for them. Which is and isn't a good thing, since he keeps them together as a team, but {{spoiler|they fight for his affection in order to one-up each other}}.
* [[Really Gets Around]]: If Sara is to be believed.
* [[Red Oni, Blue Oni]]: Maria is slobbish, passionate and determined and Sara is arrogant, poised and cultured.
