Reality Ensues: Difference between revisions

No edit summary
Line 106:
* The entire film of ''[[The Departed]]'' runs on this trope- deaths are abrupt and meaningless, there are no last-minute speeches, and it all happens so damn fast for the characters that they have no time to react.
** ''[[Infernal Affairs]]'' (the source inspiration) is even more so in that the one death in ''[[The Departed]]'' that actually has meaning to it never happens in the original.
* Something of a meta-example from ''[[X-Men: Apocalypse]]''; Olivia Mum has always been a fan of the comic, so was rather insistent that the Psylock costume be as loyal to the source material as possible. She may have regretted it. As she stated in an interview, the one-piece was a nightmare simply to get on, and she needed ''two'' wardrobe assistants and a ''lot'' of lube just to get into the thing.
* The famous scene in ''[[Raiders of the Lost Ark]]'' where Indy shoots the swordsman.
** And in ''The Last Crusade'', when {{spoiler|Donovan shoots Henry Jones Sr. to force Indy to bring back the Grail}}
