*** Lando has never lived down the incident with the Millenium Falcon's hyperdrive, either, simply because he was under the impression that his mechanics would fix it rather than the Imperials sabotaging it further. While he did truthfully claim "It's not my fault!" ([[Ironic Echo|same as Han did]]), in later Expanded Universe works ships he attempted to fly ''never'' worked as intended, with him once again spouting his new catchphrase.
* ''[[James Bond]]'' has become known as the film series where 'The main Bond girl works for the villains until she falls in love with James Bond'. In fact, this has only happened on one occasion; in ''Goldfinger''. Most of the other times, the Bond girl is either an ally of Bond from the first (e.g. ''You Only Live Twice'', ''On Her Majesty's Secret Service''), an innocent drawn into the villain's schemes (e.g. ''Dr No'', ''A View to A Kill'', ''Goldeneye''), working with the villains but unaware of the true nature of their plans (''From Russia With Love'', ''Octopussy''), a willing accomplice/BigBad who never changes sides (''The World Is Not Enough'') or effectively a slave rather than an ally of the villains (''Thunderball'', ''Live and Let Die'').
** Complicating matters, several Bond films (such as ''Thunderball'', ''Goldeneye'' and ''Die Another Day'') have genuinely evil beautiful henchwomen ''as well'' as heroines, and Bond will sleep with said evil henchwoman, in almost every single film. Doesn't help that Bond is also a frequent offender of tropes like [[Sex Equals Love]] and [["It's Not Rape If You Enjoyed It"]].
