Line 11: [[Flashback Echo]] is a different trope entirely. {{examples}}▼ ▲{{examples}} == [[Film]] == * Parodied in the ''[[Wayne's World]]'' movie as Wayne and Garth (in their typical low-budget way) literally walk on screen to back the plot up and work out a better ending by waving their hands across the screen and going "Doodooleeloo! Doodooleeloo!" == [[Live -Action TV]] == * ''[[Lost]]'' uses a whooshing sound to indicate flashbacks, although one can usually tell by the setting ''not'' being the island. ** Let's not forget the "Thousand-Yard Stare of Impending Flashback." Line 22: * Chewbacca in ''[[The Star Wars Holiday Special]]''. [[Sarcasm Mode\|It's subtle.]] * ''[[Doctor Who]]'' plays with this trope in the episode "[[Doctor Who/Recap/S30/E07 The Unicorn and the Wasp\|The Unicorn and the Wasp]]". Even the Doctor starts to get caught in a flashback at one point. * Parodied in ''[[Frasier]]''. After reminiscing about the past, the characters look dazed and introspective as harp music is playing in the background, a typical cue for a flashback scene. A moment later they snap out of it. Still hearing the music, they turn around to see that someone behind them was [[~~Sorry I~~ Left the ~~BGM~~Background Music On\|actually playing a harp]]. * [[Sabrina the Teenage Witch]] parodies it, Salem tells Sabrina to make the music for him to tell a story in flashback, Sabrina does just that. * Parodied in ~~the modern~~ ''[[~~Adams~~The New Addams Family]] ~~show~~''. Fester says something which causes Morticia to flashback as that last word is echoed over and over. When the flashback ends, it's revealed that Fester is just saying that last word over and over. == [[Radio]] == Line 42: == [[Western Animation]] == * Parodied in ''[[The Fairly ~~Odd Parents~~OddParents]]'' in an episode where several [[Flash Back\|Flashbacks]] occurred, each time preceded by a character providing the echo themselves: "...while he was away at summer camp...camp...camp." Further parodied when Timmy's dad gets an echo response to "summer camp" ''while in the flashback''; he adds "Put up drapes to cancel the echo" to his to-do list. * In typical ''[[South Park]]'' style, in the episode "I'm A Little Bit Country", Cartman tries to avoid research on the Revolutionary War by inducing a flashback. This mostly involves getting himself hit in the head, and saying "I wonder what things were like back then. Back then. Back then..." * ''[[The Simpsons]]'' had Marge flashing back to Homer's words, only to reveal that Homer was whispering them to her through a cardboard tube, including the echo. Line 51: * Invoked in [[Earthworm Jim]]; {{quote\|'''Professor Monkey-For-A-Head:''' I remember it as if it were yesterday...yesterday...yesterday... '''Psycrow:''' It ''was''' yesterday. '''Professor Monkey-For-A-Head:''' Quiet! I am setting up a flashback! Yesterday...yesterday...yesterday... }} == [[Web Original]] == * ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh!: The Abridged Series\|]]'': "Odion stop being such a BABY baby baby baby..........." flashes back to the time when Odion was a baby]] {{reflist}} [[Category:{{PAGENAME}}]] [[Category:Flashbacks and Chronology]] [[Category:This Trope Name References Itself]] [[Category:Sound FX Tropes]] ~~[[Category:Flash Back Back Back]]~~
