Line 91:
* ''[[Back to the Future (film)|Back to the future]]'': Biff's pals threaten Reginald, with a racial slur no less; Reginald's tough-looking friend Martin shows up with ''his'' three tough-looking friends. [[Oh Crap]]...
* ''[[Police Academy]]'': trying to intimidate a police officer would usually fall into [[Bullying a Dragon]] territory, but in the 6th movie, the officer in question is sweet, shy, and meek-looking Officer Hook. At the beginning of the movie, she's writing a citation for a car parked in a red zone, when the owner — a bigwig in an overstuffed suit — tries to scare her out of ticketing him (claiming his brother-in-law is on the city council), threatening to have her demoted, and then tearing up the citation. He regrets it; she comes back quickly with additional citations (for parking too far from the curb, blocking a hydrant, having no license plate, having an expired tag, [[Laser-Guided Karma| littering]], attempting to extort an officer, and destroying the first citation, along with the original one for parking in a red zone) and then ''tells'' a tow truck to impound the car. She breaks her sweet attitude to punctuate what she tells him so he won't forget it.
* ''[[Willy's Wonderland]]'' asks the question, "What would ''[[Five Nights at Freddy's]]'' be like if it were an [[Action Adventure]] game with an [[Action Hero]] protagonist, rather than a [[Strategy Game]] with a [[Guile Hero]]
