Line 214:
** In the 2002 series, the Snake Men retake Snake Mountain in all of five minutes, with Snake-Face using his powers to turn Skeletor's henchmen into stone with his gaze. However, when the Snake Men storm Greyskull later, Snake-Face, for some unfathomable reason, delays using this lethal ability until he goes up against He-Man, choosing to fight Mekanek with [[Good Old Fisticuffs]]. Say what? To drive home the point on how absurd this was, the comic book adaptation changed it, and he ''did'' use his gaze on Mek; fortunately, in this case, when [[Hoist by His Own Petard|his gaze was reflected back]] on him by He-Man and he got a taste of his own medicine, [[No Ontological Inertia|the effect on his victims wore off.]]
* In one episode of ''[[Sonic X]]'' where the setting is a jungle, Eggman tells Decoe and Becoe to go look for something to eat; both are reluctant to do so, as they’re afraid of the wildlife, and ask why Bokkun can’t do it. Eggman has to remind them that ''they'', unlike Bokkun and himself, are robots (as in, made of metal), and predators would not attack anything that is obviously inedible.
* This is lampooned in one episode of ''[[Xiaolin Showdown]]''. With Dojo has been striken by madness that strikes him every 600 years, he swallows the monks, Jack, and Wuya. Eventually, the monks find the two villains in Dojo's cavernous stomach, Jack being close to panic. Jack asks Wuya why she, being a spirit, can't just fly out; Wuya thinks about it, says "Good point", and does so... leaving Jack behind, much to his regret.
