Line 113:
* Based on the ''[[Romance of the Three Kingdoms]]'' saga, the Chinese movie [[Red Cliff]] has [[Boisterous Bruiser]] Zhang Fei, not known for his tactical genius, but still unwittingly blurting out vital insights more than once. Towards the end of the movie, his comment on the enemy battle fleet ("those ships could give us more firewood than we'll use in our lifetime") leads to Zhou Yu's plan to set the entire fleet on fire.
* ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'': As Eddie Valiant leaves a movie theater, a newsreel tells the news of how Maroon Cartoons was sold to {{spoiler|Cloverleaf Industries, the same company that bought the Red Car trolley line and bid for ownership of Toontown.}} He runs back in and shouts, "That's it! That's the connection!"
** Also, [[Porky Pig]] discovers his [[Catch Phrase]] this way in the final scene of the movie:
{quote|'''Porky:''' Okay everyone, move along! There's nothing more to see! That's all folks! ''{Takes his hat off, scratches his head, then looks at the viewer.)'' "Hmm, I like the sound of that!" ''{Waves}'' "Th-th-th-th-that's all folks!"}}
* ''[[Dogma]]'' has one of these near the end; Jay tells Bethany (while trying to get it on, because the world's about to end) about a boardwalk he once took a girl to on a date. Bethany, after learning that the boardwalk has Skeeball, realizes that "John Doe Jersey," of whom her minister was sermonizing about earlier, is God, trapped in a comatose mortal body.
** Hey, Jay was a prophet (or is that profit?), after all.

'''Steve Rogers''': Right. I caught his act in Stuttgart.
'''Tony Stark''': Yeah. That's just previews, this is... this is opening night. And Loki, he's a full-tail diva. He wants flowers, he wants parades, he wants a monument built to the skies with his name plastered... Son of a bitch. }}
