Line 1:
{{trope}}
* The movie ''[[Brick]]'' takes place in a modern high school, but sounds and plays like a 1940's/50s's [[Film Noir]]; one of the students who hangs out by himself is the know-it-all informant, and the principal is the police chief or DA threatening to rein in the hero.
* In ''[[X-Men (Film)|X-Men]] II: X-Men United'', Bobby "comes out" with his mutant powers to his parents, who respond, [[Have You Tried Not Being a Monster?|"Have you tried ''not'' being a mutant?"]] Director Bryan Singer is gay, as is actor [[Ian McKellen]], who was asked for assistance in writing this scene, basing it on a "coming out" conversation.
** [http://www.the-editing-room.com/xmen.html The Editing Room] had fun with this regarding the first movie:
{{quote| BRUCE DAVIDSON: I am a bigot! I am very much against mutants! Mutants should die! Do you want mutants in our schools? Do you want mutants raising your children? God commands that mutants are abhorrent! I propose a bill which will immediately outlaw the Mutant Pride Parade and blow up San Francisco, home to many mutants!<br />
Line 52:
*** Makes one wonder what the worst thing she caught him doing was.
**** Hardly.
* According to ''Entertainment Weekly'''s review of [[The Jonas Brothers]]' [[
** I'm pretty sure the Jonas Brothers spray foam in the other direction.
*** It's not sexual, the hose was wearing a purity ring.
