Line 3:
'''Shoveler:''' ''Oh, don't start that again! Lance Hunt wears glasses. Captain Amazing doesn't wear glasses.''
'''Mr. Furious:''' ''He takes them off when he transforms.''
'''Shoveler:''' ''That doesn't make any sense. He wouldn't be able to see!''
|''[[Mystery Men]]''}}
Examples of [[{{BASEPAGENAME}}]] in [[{{SUBPAGENAME}}]] include:
Line 61 ⟶ 62:
* In ''[[Sky High (film)|Skyhigh]]'', The Commander almost only differs from Steve Stronghold by the glasses the latter wears, as Layla points out...
* This trope ''gradually'' came into play for the 1972 film adaptation of ''[[Sleuth]]''. {{spoiler|The young [[Michael Caine]]'s "Inspector Doppler" disguise was genuinely convincing to audiences forty years ago, and resulted in an [[The Reveal|astonishing reveal moment]]. But to current audiences sitting down for a re-watch, the fake inspector looks uncannily like a ''present-day'' Michael Caine, so the surprise has been retroactively spoiled.}}
* Jason Vorhees (from ''[[Friday the 13th]]'' franchise, of course) may be one of the most iconic and most feared killers in slasher movie history, but he's also kind of stupid, especially in the second movie, where [[Final Girl| Ginny]] is able to convince him she's his mother, simply by wearing Ms. Vorhees' sweater. (Ginny looks ''nothing'' like his mother otherwise.) Yeah, it sinks in eventually, but given that it fools him for even a few minutes doesn't make him look all-too smart.
* In ''[[Kill Bill]]'', the "disguise" Elle uses in her attempt to infiltrate the hospital and finish off the comatose Bride doesn't seem convincing, seeing as she replaces her regular eyepatch with a white one with a red cross on it, intentionally giving herself a [[Red Right Hand]] for this scene.
