{{quote|'''Senior Officer:''' The weird thing is, the bodies show traces of...pure energy.
Line 29:
* [[Deflector Shields]] are usually walls made of [[Pure Energy]].
* [[Hard Light]], when it's just "we [[Tim Taylor Technology|turned up the power so high]] that it became solid" as in ''Automan'', is a solid projection made of [[Pure Energy]].
* [[Frickin' Laser Beams]] are, by and large, simply conventional pistols that fire bullets made of [[Pure Energy]], rather than being lasers or something similarly hard to dodge.
* Objects made by a [[Green Lantern Ring|Green Lantern Power Ring]].
* [[Power Source]] to most advanced or magical machinery.
Line 73:
== [[Western Animation]] ==
* In the 2009 ''[[Astro Boy]]'' movie, the title character is powered by a glowy energy that is "more powerful than nuclear energy." News flash, folks: Energy is energy. You can say you have more watts or transmit at a higher voltage, but energy does not come in "flavors" that are better or worse than any other.
* In ''[[Transformers]]'', Energon, so near as we can tell, is [[Pure Energy]] which has been poured into a box for easy storage.
** The late G1 episode, "Call of the Primitives", featured a monster named Tornedron who was described as being made of "pure energy", thereby allowing him to assume many (apparently solid) forms and making him superior to Unicron, a being of matter... ''riiiight''.
