Line 44:
'''Laura:''' "Lots of people get sad when it rains."
'''Agent K:''' "It rains ''because'' you're sad." }}
* In ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]'', the captain of the Flying Dutchman has this effect on the ship. A good captain has a nice ship, while a corrupt one (Davy Jones) makes the ship [[A Worldwide Punomenon|a little fishy]]. Thus, when {{spoiler|Will Turner}} becomes the captain, the ship's appearance improves and the sailors are no longer human-fish hybrids. In fact, you can see the fishy bits falling off of his crew when he takes over. {{spoiler|Will's father}} even takes the starfish off his face on camera.
* [[David Lynch|David Lynch's]] [[Film of the Book]] ''[[Dune]]'' ends with Paul Atreides taking up his rightful place as the Kwisatz Haderach, at which point Arrakis, a planet defined by its absurd dearth of water, is consumed by a torrential downpour of rain. Subtle. In the book, it took years of [[terraform]]ing.<ref>From what we know, rain would also kill the sandworms, to whom water is toxic. The consequences of the deluge to vital spice production are not covered in the movie: the rain is presented as a Good Thing.</ref>
* In [[Jim Henson|Jim Henson's]] ''[[The Dark Crystal]]'', the area around the crystal castle is barren and gloomy while the Skeksis are in power. Once the Ancients return and hand it over to the Gelflings, cue sunshine and green grass everywhere.
