Say My Name: Difference between revisions

* Similarly, try keeping track of how often the hero's name is said in ''[[Beowulf (film)|Beowulf]]'', most notably in the sea monster fight ("BEEEEEEOOWUUUUUULLLLF!"). There are quite a few shout of "[[Punctuated! For! Emphasis!|I am Beowulf!]]" in there (of varying [[No Indoor Voice|volume]] and [[Punctuated! For! Emphasis!|pacing]]), and Wiglaf even gets the odd "You are Beowulf!".

* ''[[American Pie]]'':

'''Jim''': "Michelle! Michelle." }}

* ''[[Chain Reaction (film)|Chain Reaction]]'' has the character played by [[Morgan Freeman]] repeatedly saying the name of the character played by [[Keanu Reeves]] in casual conversation. It's not for dramatic effect, it's just bad writing.

{{quote|'''Ironhide''': '''IT'S STARSCREAM!'''}}

* ''[[9|Nine]]'' gets '''''"2!"''''' As well as:

'''7''': ''[[You Are Number Six|9!]]'' }}

* ''[[Moonwalker]]'': "Michael! Michael!"

* ''[[Doctor Who]]'', new series: "Use my name!" "...Master." Repeated later: "Doctor." "Master." "I like it when you use my name."

** And how many times did we hear "ROOOOOSSSEEE!" or "MARTHA!" or "DONNA!" or even "[http://mimi-na.deviantart.com/art/Doctor-s-Girls-Wallpaper-58513223 DOCTOR!]"?

* Parodied in ''[[The IT Crowd]]'': Douglas Reynholm bursts into his father's [[The Fun in Funeral|funeral]], takes off his sunglasses, gets his bearings, and [[Incoming Ham|when he's sure he's got everyone's attention]] lets out an anguished "FATHEEEERRRRRRRRRRR!"

* Parodied in several ''[[Monty Python's Flying Circus]]'' sketches, where the detectives' ridiculous names [[Who's on First?|are always echoed]] after they introduce themselves:

{{quote|'''Lookout''': This house is surrounded. I must ask that no one leave the room. I'm Chief Superintendent Lookout.

'''Lady Velloper''': Lookout!

'''Lady Velloper''': What would we see if we look out of the yard? }}

** Also, "The Semaphore Version of ''Wuthering Heights''" is ''full'' of this, despite having no spoken lines.

{{quote|'''Daxter:''' Jak? ''JAAAK!''}}

* ''[[Fallout 3]]'':

'''Argyle:''' Warm welcome's over, boss! Time to scram! }}

* ''[[Heavenly Sword]]'': '''KAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII!'''

{{spoiler|Hades}}: Piiiiiiiiiiit!

Pit: {{spoiler|Hadeeeeeees!}}

Both: Now it's REALLY on! On to victory/death! }}

 

'''Optimus:''' So you ''can'' remember my name. }}

** Megatron screaming Starscream's name is a recurring thing. In the IDW comics, it happens when Starscream is using Ultra-Energon to try and overthrow him. {{spoiler|The juiced-up Starscream still gets EASILY pwned, and this Megatron will ''not'' be taking it lying down like [[Transformers Generation 1|certain other Megatrons]]}}. In Animated, we get two: First, Megs finds out it's Screamer who sabotaged him in premiere. Later, Starscream tries to rig a [[MacGuffin]] to explode and destroy the Autobots and Megatron (and about half of Detroit would likely have gone with them.) Starscream fails.

'''Screamer''': [Flying away at high speed] Y-you must have me confused with some other harrier jet... [Next scene is Starscream slamming into the ground. Hard.] }}

** ''[[Transformers Cybertron]],'' Megs gets booby-trapped and he and the 'cons loyal to him are left behind in a force field in deep space. Starscream feels the need to leave a message to make sure Megs knows who screwed him, and all Megatron can do is yell his name in fury.

{{quote|'''[[Obscurus Lupa]]''': Don't do it, Critic!

'''NC''': Obscurus Lupa?

'''NC''': Spoony? }}
