Pyrrhic Victory: Difference between revisions

Line 273:

* In ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'', Katara comes across a elderly waterbender named Hama who teaches her on how to improve her Waterbending skills, albeit through questionable methods. Her last lesson is Waterbending's ultimate technique, Bloodbending, where under a full moon the Waterbender can take complete control of his opponent. Katara, of course, is horrified at such a practice and vows not to use it. But when Hama takes control of Aang and Sokka and nearly kills them, Katara has no choice but to use the technique to stop her. Hama laughs at this while she's being carted off by the officials, as she suceeded in making Katara use the technique much to Katara's dismay.

* In ''[[Chaotic]]'', "Allmagedon", a creature uses an attack to defeat an army of underworlders, at the expence of all he was trying to protect.

* In one of the original ''[[Looney ~~Toons~~|Duck Dodgers]]'' shorts, Duck Dodgers and Marvin the Martian are fighting over planet X. At one point, they start drawing bigger and bigger guns in an attempt to destroy the other and end up blowing the planet up, leaving a few minor scraps so small that it literally wasn't big enough for the both of them. At this point, Dodgers shoves Marvin off the planet and starts gloating about his victory, while the camera pans down to reveal the Space Cadet is hanging on to a few roots, saying "Big Deal".
