Running on the Spot: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Scooby -Doo (Animationanimation)|Scooby Doo]]'' did this many times, with Shaggy and Scooby being the worst offenders. Often Fred would catch them and pull them back whilst they were running on the spot - but they still did it every time.

** ''[[Robot Chicken (Animation)|Robot Chicken]]'' [[Deconstructed Trope|deconstructs]] this in their [[X Meets Y|Scoody Doo meets Jason]] sketch, where Scooby is found by the killer and does this (the killer catches him and slaughters him)

* Monterey Jack from ''[[Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers (Animationanimation)|Chip 'n Dale Rescue Rangers]]'' often runs on the spot at the beginning of a cheese attack. If he doesn't float in the air, that is.

* In the movie ''[[Animalympics (Animation)|Animalympics]]'', a sight gag compares the hundred-yard dash to drag racing; the racers suit up in auto-racing suits, the "Christmas tree" countdown lights replace the starting pistol and the racers morph into actual Top Fuel cars during the sprint, burning out during the countdown and even using [[Wheel-O-Feet]].

* Fred Flintstone's car on ''[[The Flintstones (Animation)|The Flintstones]]'' was ''powered'' by this.

* Parodied in the ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic (Animation)|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' episode "Griffon the Brush-Off". Granny Smith does this when she's spooked by Gilda's prank, only to end up "running" away at a snail's pace.
