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.

Contrast with [[Unusually Uninteresting Sight]].
