Line 14:
** 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]].
* In-universe example in ''[[Superbad]]'':
{{quote| '''Seth''': Hey Greg, why don't you go piss your pants?<br />
'''Greg the Soccer Player''': That was like 8 years ago, asshole!<br />
'''Seth''': People don't forget! }}
** And then there's McLovin.
* Indirectly in ''[[Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back]]'''s depiction of Jason Biggs, eternally remembered as "[[American Pie|the pie fucker]]".
{{quote| "I'm '''haunted''' by it!"}}
** [[Clerks II]] both plays it straight ''and'' subverts it with Dante and Randall's former classmate Lance "Pickle Fucker" Dowds, who had earned the nickname in an incident of high school hazing. After Randall recounts the incident where Dowds earned the nickname, Dowds replies that nobody but the aimless Randall Graves would remember the incident at all. Cue Jay walking in and referring to saying "Hurry up Pickle Fucker, I wanna get my cow tipper on!" As Jay is leaving, he yells off-screen "Hey, Silent Bob, some pickle fucker just gave us free eats!" revealing that Jay occasionally just randomly calls people 'pickle fucker.'
* The [[Parody]] [[Disaster Movie]] ''The Big Bus'' contains the immortal line "Jeeze! You eat one foot and they call you a cannibal!"
* Invoked in [[David Cronenberg]]'s ''[[The Brood]]'' when Robert Silverman's character intends to sue the psychiatric clinic (run by [[Oliver Reed]]) that he believes to be responsible for his lymph cancer. He knows he's going to lose the case, but he also knows that in a few years, people won't even remember the verdict.
{{quote| All they'll remember is the slogan: "Psychoplasmics Gives You Cancer." Catchy, huh?}}
* In ''[[For Your Consideration]]'', Harry Shearer's character, Victor Allen Miller, a dramatic actor who has been a veteran of stage for 40 years, yet all most people seem to remember of him is being a hotdog pitchman on TV when he was younger.
* [[Joel Schumacher]] is seen by many as the director that killed the 90s Batman franchise with ''[[Batman and Robin (film)|Batman and Robin]]''. A prolific director with interesting films under his belt, yet for the fan(boy)dom he's branded as the director of Batman & Robin.
