== Comic Books ==
* ''[[All Star Batman and Robin The Boy Wonder]]'' contains a [[Batman]] that is explicitly a hyper-exaggeration of Batman's well-known aggressive crimefighting tactics and grim personality. The degree to which it is an exaggeration is divisive as whether or not it's a grand cockup or hilarious self-parody. Either way... [http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v213/c3w/misc/g-ddamn_batman.jpg He's the goddamn BATMAN.]
* This is the main source of humor in ''[[Twisted
* The various [[Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles]] tend do be subject to this to various degrees, especially Donatello, who is turned into a full-on [[Gadgeteer Genius]] in some adaptations when in the original he only had a knack for fixing things; and Michelangelo, whose original tendency to be more light-hearted than the others served as the basis for his "party dude" persona.
== Fan
* In ''[[Calvin and Hobbes The Series (Fanfic)|Calvin and Hobbes: The Series]]'', the titular duo become a [[Gadgeteer Genius]] and [[Cowardly Lion]], respectively.
* In ''[[Star Trek]]'', the Vulcans kiss with their fingers, as well as having a finger caress that's a bit more intimate. This is taken to highly illogical levels in fanfic, such as one in which Spock almost orgasms from the finger stimulation from giving Kirk a backrub, and then does orgasm when Kirk starts caressing his hands.
Line 74:
* The trope flies both ways in ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit]]'', the film adaptation of Gary Wolf's [[Urban Fantasy]] novel ''[[Who Censored Roger Rabbit]]''. The title character went from being cunning if somewhat self-obsessed, with only a select few cartoony quirks, to being a full-blown wacky [[Cloudcuckoolander]], whereas Eddie Valiant went from being an extremely over-the-top parody of the [[Film Noir]] [[Private Detective]] to being a fairly normal guy, given the circumstances.
* The ''[[Harry Potter (film)|Harry Potter]]'' movies:
** In the movies, Snape is suavely and delicately malicious. The Snape of the books can be snarky at times, but he's just as likely to be loud-mouthed and unsubtle. You couldn't picture Alan Rickman's Snape throwing the fit the character throws at the end of [[Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (novel)|the book version of ''
** In [[Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (film)|the sixth movie]], Jessie Cave took the [[Sickeningly Sweethearts|Sickening Sweetheart]] part of Lavender's character and played it to the ''hilt''.
** Miranda Richardson on playing Rita Skeeter: "Rita reads rather differently than how I played her. She reads more, to me, like Dame Edna. And there's no way I'm going to do Dame Edna. So it's a different twist on the character."
** Happens rather dramatically to the Crouches in [[Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (film)|the fourth movie]]. {{spoiler|
** [[Helena Bonham Carter]] takes Bellatrix's insanity and plays it up to make her childishly thrilled by such things as getting to torture and murder people.
** In the books, Ginny is a [[Fiery Redhead]], but in the movies she comes off more as a [[Girl Next Door]]. This may not really sound like an exaggeration ''per se'', but it does play up an aspect of her book self's personality.
