Line 179:
* ''[[Farce of the Penguins]]'' implies that all of the characters are aware that they're in a documentary, featuring scenes such as Marcus telling the sound track director to change from stock music to hip-hop because if he's gonna be walking 70 miles, "the track best be bumpin'," and a few characters talking to or full-blown arguing with Samuel L. Jackson, the narrator.
* The whole plot of ''[[Barbie (film)|Barbie]]'' is about the iconic character realizing she isn't real, leaving her fantasy [[Sugar Bowl]] to learn the truth about what she is. Unfortunately for her, there's a lot of folks who want her to stay in her "box"...
* Ferris Bueller of ''[[Ferris Bueller's Day Off]]'' is aware he's in a movie, and frequently addresses the audience to discuss his motivations and methods. At one point he makes a text list appear on the screen to highlight the topic he's discussing. And of course, there's the famous [[The Stinger|Stinger]] where he is surprised to find the audience is still in the theatre, then tells them that the movie is over and to go home.
* [[Deadpool]] has ''always'' been medium-aware, and in [[Deadpool (film)|his film appearances]] is no different, commenting on everything from common storytelling devices to the production budget.
