Talking in Your Sleep: Difference between revisions

Not to be confused with [[Talking in Your Dreams]], where two or more dreaming characters are communicating with one another.

 

{{examples}}

 

* Nori in ''[[Rozen Maiden]]'' mentions this line in her sleep:

{{quote|''Jun, I can't, we're siblings!''}}

* Cruelly played straight in ''[[Neon Genesis Evangelion]]''. During the ninth episode, when Asuka sleep walks (or debatably consciously walks) into Shinji's futon, Shinji leans in for a kiss, but stops when he hears Asuka mumbling "Mama" in her sleep. This would foreshadow later on when we learn that {{spoiler|Asuka's mother killed herself}}.

** In the manga adaptation of ''Neon Genesis Evangelion'', Asuka even ''attempts to strangle'' Shinji while in a ''coma''. Notably, that's what happens instead of a certain infamous [[Dude, She's Like, in a Coma]] incident.

 

== [[Film]] ==

{{quote|"You gonna eat that? ... careful with that hammer ... sea monkeys have my money ... yes, I'm a natural blue."}}

** In the outtakes, she instead says: "[[Press Your Luck|Big money! No whammies!]]"

* ''[[Toy Story]]'': Woody nearly wakes up a half-asleep Sid, who mutters "I don't wanna ride the pony."

** The gag was later repeated word-for-word in the videogame adaptation of ''[[The Warriors (video game)|The Warriors]]''.

* In ''The President's Analyst'', the title character's job stress takes a turn for the worse when returning home one day, he finds the head of the No Federal Agencies Were Harmed "FBR" informs him they removed his live-in girlfriend, citing national security as he talked in his sleep. Needless to say, he's quite upset that they know that fact.

* In ''[[The Neverending Story (film)|The Neverending Story]]'', Falcor tells Atreyu that he talks in his sleep.

* [[Percy Jackson and The Olympians]]- The first time Percy ever sees Annabeth, she's feeding him ambrosia (which to him tastes like popcorn-flavored pudding) and muttering something. When he can talk and asks how she even knew his name and what happened to him, she just smirks and says, "You talk in your sleep"

* In ''[[Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban]]'', Sirius was talking in his sleep before his escape, which they use as evidence.

* Several characters do this in ''[[Lord of the Rings]]'', including Frodo, Eowyn, Merry and Faramir.

 

Holding on so tight, loving her the way

You used to love me. }}

{{quote|There's a ghost in my mouth

And it talks in my sleep }}

* ''[[Macbeth]]'': Lady Macbeth's sleepwalking soliloquy.

* Characters learn important information while another character talks in her sleep in [[The Yeomen of the Guard]].

 

 

* An episode of ''[[The Powerpuff Girls]]'' showed a cop nodding off on late-night duty, muttering "Hands in the air" in his sleep.

* Egon of ''[[The Real Ghostbusters]]'' talks in his sleep, usually about science experiments gone wrong. He has said things like "Sorry I burned down the garage, Mom." and "Don't worry, your hair will grow back."

* On ''[[Total Drama World Tour]],'' [[Dogged Nice Guy|Cody]] mutters something about him getting together with [[Perky Goth|Gwen]], which is fine, since [[Stalker with a Crush|Sierra]] had a "roller-skating accident."
