Ira Kane: Snag one! |
"Hah! I found it! In my 'Vault of Horror' comic book #9! Right after the story of the thing in the swamp that eats up the grandma alive... it tells how to kill a vampire!"
—Mad Magazine, "V-Vampires!"
|
"Oh, I'm so very happy you talked to me. Unless we're especially lucky, characters like me without notable personalities often wind up overlooked and ignored. But I'm happy. You talked to me. You've acknowledged me, in other words. Oh, I'm so happy!"
|
Aang: (when a pedestal rises from the ground in a Temple of Doom) What exactly is that? —Avatar: The Last Airbender, "The Firebending Masters"
|
Guy: (when the rest of the crew try to approach some harmless-looking aliens) They may look cute now, but in a minute, they're going to get mean, and ugly somehow, and there's going to be a million more of them. |
Tret: You assume a castle built on ancient ruins must have a secret entrance infested with traps and monsters? |
Betty: It's that old familiar story. You help a timid little soul across a crowded street; she turns out to be a multimillionaire and leaves you all her money. |
"It's Bowser again, isn't it? Oh no, here we go again! Mario, would you please bring her[1] back, like you always do?"
—Toad, Super Mario RPG
|
Geek Scientist: Look, we have medics and guards standing by just in case. And this is one of our strongest containment rooms. Everything is under control. |
Nazi A: "Hans, I've just noticed something." |
Elan: Will I ever see you again? |
Gladiator's Taskmaster: Now listen, because I'm about to tell you how it's going to be in this hellhole for the rest of your short, miserable lives. First I'm going to line you up and shout at you. I'll belitle you, call you a few names and repeatedly mention how you are all probably going to die. Actually, that's the part we're doing right now, so we're running a little ahead of schelude. Then, you will be allowed to wander the common area, where the other prisoners will snarl at you, steal the pieces of bread that are being handed out, and generally act like insecure schoolyard bullies. At the time one of you will defend a weaker prisoner from said bullies, possibly giving him your own bread. This will create a close friendship between the two of you, most likely with strong homosexual overtones, that will not be fully explored. Later, the weaker gladiator will be killed in the arena, and then you will kill the one who killed him in a big climatic match. Oh, and before I forget, you will remain stripped to the waist with your muscules oiled at all times, for no apparent purpose. See the Oil Steward if your skin becomes dry for any reason. Where was I, ah right - The part where one of you catches the eye of a beautiful noblewoman while fighting, only to reject her amorous advances. |
Nale: You're the one who taught me that bards are underpowered. |
[[color:red:TG: dude monsters arent real —Dave (and John), Homestuck
|
Marlo Chandler: Hey, what's that rumbling? Is it an earthquake? |
Angela Moore: This doesn't make any sense. |
"Do it?" Dan, I'm not a Republic serial villain. Do you seriously think I'd explain my masterstroke if there remained the slightest chance of you affecting its outcome? I did it thirty-five minutes ago.
—Adrian "Ozymandias" Veidt, Watchmen
|
What's with having to light candles to get to the basement?! Not very subtle, is it...
|
Don't you know a kid always wins against two idiots?
—Kevin, Home Alone 2 to Harry and Marv
|
Did you honestly think you could take so many lives and never suffer retribution? Have you never even seen a kung-fu movie, spy flick or western? Shakespeare, for God's sake!
— Jasper Batt Jr., No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle
|
Ever since I arrived in this dreamland of the incredibly obvious, I've seen nothing but clichés!
