Line 18:
...And all of a sudden, we've got something ''epic''. Well, in theory anyway- simply by [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|reading this page]] you've made it substantially more obvious to yourself when the film editor is just screwing with your emotions with all these epic disclaimers, and indeed, egregious use of these tone-changers will be obvious to nearly anyone. Of course, effective use of this trope will [[Rule of Cool|blind the viewer]] with sheer awesome to the point that they won't notice.
 
[[Large Ham|Large Hams]]s are the living embodiments of this trope. This trope is highly likely to contain [[Melodrama]]. When this gets overdone, you often end up with [[Narm]] and [[Get On With It Already]].
 
See also [[Mundane Utility]] (for ''awesome'' tools that are used to do mundane things), [[Invisibility Flicker]] (which reminds you that stealth and awesome do not mix, except when ninjas are involved), [[Hair Flip]] (a common way of making a small head movement dramatic), and [[Mundane Object Amazement]] (More focused on characters being amazed by mundane objects). Contrast with [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight]].
