Gosh Dang It to Heck: Difference between revisions

Line 149:

* Happens several times in a TV edit of ''[[The Matrix]]'': From Choi telling Neo in the beginning that he was his "own personal juvenile delinquent", Neo exclaiming, "Jeepers creepers, that thing's real?!", and Tank's "[[Judas Priest]], he's fast!" to cover up using "Jesus Christ" as a swear, to Neo threatening to give Agent Smith "a Flipper", rather than "the Finger". The best one was when Trinity, seeing Neo being taken away by Agents, can only respond with a deadpan "Shucks".

* The 1962 movie [[The Music Man]] uses this, but is justified by its setting being 1912. This causes some great comedy when all the parents are terrified by their children using such foul words like "swell" and "so's your old man".

* [[Played for Laughs]] in ''[[Fantastic Mr. Fox]]'', which uses the word "cuss" in place of every cuss word, sometimes using it often enough to parody the overuse of "fuck" in Tarantino movies. In a streetscape background of one scene, there is graffiti that says "cuss" in big colorful letters. This, in turn, got the movie a PG rating for "slang humor" which was spoofed in [https://web.archive.org/web/20151004114622/http://strewthcomic.com/2009/11/23/be-ye-warned-2/ this ''Strewth!'' comic].
