* In ''[[Bride of Frankenstein]]'' Elizabeth describes a vision of an evil apparition which will entangle Henry, and says she sees it drawing nearer -- nearer -- andnearer—nearer—and is immediately answered by the [[Morally-Ambiguous Doctorate|evil Dr. Praetorius]] knocking at the door.

* Played with in a scene from ''[[Batman Returns]]''. Batman crashes through a window into the top floor of a dark, abandoned building to rescue the Ice Princess, who's been [[Bound and Gagged|tied to a chair and muzzled with a cloth by the Penguin's goons]]. He quickly frees her, informing her that he's been framed for her kidnapping. The Ice Princess's response? "No problem. I'll just tell the police that I was kidnapped by [[Buffy-Speak|an ugly bird-man with fish breath]]." Immediately afterward, someone announces: "Did somebody say 'fish'?" and a familiar figure drops from the rafters. Is it the Penguin? No, it's [[Catwoman|another notorious criminal who dresses in the manner of another animal well known for eating fish]]...

* Mocked in a ''[[Saturday Night Live]]'' skit featuring Conan O'Brien as "Moleculo", a superhero who is unable to keep his identity a secret because, whenever he hears his name mentioned, even if out of costume, he loudly bellows: "THE [[ThisPunctuated! IsFor! SpartaEmphasis!|MO-LEC-U-LAR]] MANNNN!" He finally gives up and moves to Mexico - only to constantly repeat his mistake. [[Bilingual Bonus|In Spanish.]]
