Line 56:
* The 1971 version of ''[[The Andromeda Strain]]'' uses this trope for the scientists near the beginning, although it takes a while to get them in the same room because two of the scientists take a detour to investigate the plagued town.
* ''Extreme Prejudice'' (1987) begins with the special forces team arriving at an airport in civilian clothes, interspaced with shots of each man's military photo ID and a statement of [[Faking the Death|how they 'died' in action or from training accidents]].
* The [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]]—the '''''entire''''' [[Marvel Cinematic Universe]]—has been a giant one of these, introducing every character in their own film (or films) and having [[Samuel L. Jackson|Nick Fury]] show up in each with the recruitment speech, all culminating in the moment when ''everyone'' from Wakanda to wizards shows up to fight Thanos in ''[[Avengers: Endgame]]'' -- at which point [[Captain America]] '' finally'' says the line for the first (and probably only) time. [[A Worldwide Punomenon|"Some Assembly Required"]] indeed.
