Enemy Mime: Difference between revisions

* In ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'', the eponymous hero fights a battle (or two) against fast-food pitch-clown [[No Celebrities Were Harmed|Donald McBonald]], who has access to mime powers. The good doctor defeats him with a pantomime of an invisible rocket launcher. (In [https://web.archive.org/web/20090901200058/http://www.drmcninja.com/mcdonalds.html this story].)

* ''[[Casey and Andy]]'' features a Mime Assassin as a recurring antagonist. He utilizes Mime Powers in addition to ordinary and specialized firearms (such as a water-gun loaded with Very Holy Water for fighting off [[Satan]], who just happens to be [[Planet Eris|dating one of the main characters]]), but is foiled when the Quantum Cop turns said powers against him, locking him in an invisible, unbreakable box.

* A now defunct webcomic featured a villain with battle mimes as henchmen. When a character commented on the absurdity of this, the villain replied that, being silent, agile, and well trained, Mimes were just ninjas with pizazz.

* The "Panous-Panous"—Mooks in the amateur French sentai show ''[[France Five]]''—have been described as "[[McNinja|ninja-mimes]]".

* Lord Opticord and his minions in ''[[Sockbaby]]'' have the mime theme going on, but they were most certainly not mute. Quite the contrary...

* A Thanksgiving episode of ''[[South Park]]'' from several years back showed the kids getting ready to stage a Thanksgiving pageant starring Timmy as Helen Keller and Timmy's pet turkey, Gobbles, as Helen's pet. Cartman is in charge of writing the songs for the pageant, but he can't come up with lyrics. The play's director suggests that he put on a blindfold (in order to experience what it would have been like to be Helen Keller) and write down what he sees. Once Cartman's eyes are covered, the screen goes black and then yields to a montage of images. Most of them are "traditional" scary things, such as rotting corpses and vermin - but we also see the disturbing shot of a mime [[Alliteration|lasciviously licking his lips]]. What makes it ''truly'' frightening is that when Cartman takes off the blindfold and the director asks him what he has seen, his only response is [[Nightmare Fuel Station Attendant|"Just what I always see when I close my eyes."]]

* An episode of ''[[Family Guy]]'' revealed Paris has a lot of "[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9_jwC8mKpRM mime on mime violence]".
