Line 56:
** In ''[[Star Trek Generations]]'', when the Enterprise is about to make a crash landing, Data (who has recently acquired his emotion chip) [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9hg0uMwUrI sums up the situation very concisely]: "[[Oh Crap|Oh, shit!]]" If any other character had delivered this line, it would have lost most if not all of its impact.
** Also used in ''[[Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country|Star Trek VI the Undiscovered Country]]'', where Spock's response to the news of the ''Enterprise's'' decommissioning is: "If I were human, I believe my response would be... Go to Hell."
*** Homaged in ''[[Star Trek:
** Spock's efforts at swearing, when the Enterprise crew traveled the hell back in time to 1986, in ''[[Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home|Star Trek IV the Voyage Home]]'', demonstrated why his not using curse words is a good idea.
*** Actually, I think Kirk's "Double dumbass on you, too!" was the best example of why not to try.
Line 80:
* In the recent film ''[[Changeling (film)|Changeling]]'', this is important: {{spoiler|Saying "Fuck you and the horse you rode in on" shows her decision to fight for her son whatever the cost.}}
* ''[[Falling Down]]'':
{{quote|'''[[Bad Boss|Captain Yardley:]]''' (To Sgt. Prendergast, the protagonist) ''I never liked you. You know why? You don't curse. I don't trust a man who doesn't curse. Not a "fuck" or a "shit" in all these years. Real men curse.''
''(Much later, when Yardley tries to get Prendergast to say a few words and help him look good on camera:)''
'''[[Sympathetic Inspector Antagonist|Sgt. Prendergast:]]''' ''Fuck you, Captain Yardley. Fuck you very much.'' }}
* ''[[The Simpsons]] Movie'': "SOMEBODY THROW THE GODDAMN BOMB!!" The reason it's effective in this case isn't the level of the swear (bitch, bastard, whore and slut having been mainstays in the series for years), but the ''speaker'', Marge, who in the series proper almost ''never'' swears; however, only on Sky 1 is the word ever used on the show proper due to American TV blasphemy rules (see below for when Sky 1 ''did'' use that word).
Line 150:
** In ''X-Men: First Class'', {{spoiler|[[Wolverine]]}} gets one when approached by Charles and Erik: "Go fuck yourselves."
*** Something of a trend for him, as the second film gave him a rather effective "Holy shit" upon seeing Lady Deathstrike's claws.
* Done by, of all people, [[Meryl Streep]] in ''[[The Manchurian Candidate (novel)|The Manchurian Candidate]]''.
* ''[[She's All That]]'': Rachael Leigh Cook delivers the line "Am I a bet; am I a ''fucking'' bet?" This is done with the camera on a silent Freddie Prinze, Jr., making it trivial to edit for network television.
* Oddly used in ''[[Outlander (film)|Outlander]]''. The film is already rated R for violence, yet the only harsh profanity comes at the beginning of the film: After [[Exposition Beam|getting the Norse language beamed into his brain through his eyes]], which is apparently rather painful, Kainan can only mutter, "Ooooooooooh fuck."
Line 336:
* ''[[Ed Wood (film)|Ed Wood]]'' has Bela Lugosi's response to [[Berserk Button|someone mentioning him playing Boris Karloff's sidekick]]:
{{quote|"Karloff? ''Sidekick?!?'' '''''FUCK! YOU!'''' Boris Karloff is not good enough to SMELL! MY! '''''SHIT!'''''"}}
* Otherwise mentioned for being [[Funny Moments|hilarious]], in ''[[Resident Evil: Afterlife]]'', Luther's comment when Bennett betrays the others and steals Alice's plane, intent on leaving them behind, only for the plane to sink like a stone upon takeoff:
{{quote|'''Luther''': Yeah, that's right bitch! Fuck you!
