Line 33:
* [[Fake Nationality]]: In a case of [[Spexico]], Spaniard Antonio Banderas as Mexican El Mariachi.
* [[Flashback With the Other Darrin]]: A scene from the end of the original ''[[El Mariachi]]'' is reprised at the beginning of ''[[Desperado]]'', with Banderas in the role instead of Carlos Gallardo. It's fairly convincing.
* [[Good People Have Good Sex]]: The movie has an extended, passionate love scene -- one of the hottest in mainstream cinema -- between El Mariachi ([[Badass Spaniard|Antonio Banderas!]]) and Carolina ([[Hello, Nurse!|Salma Hayek!]]). Cut to the villain Bucho lying on his bed, smoking a cigar and looking bored while a prostitute bounces up and down on him. Then she kisses him and he blows smoke into her mouth, sending her into a coughing fit.
* [[Guns Akimbo]]: The Mariachi uses dual Ruger [[KP 90 s]] to clean out the Tarasco Bar and to {{spoiler|kill his [[Big Bad]] brother}}.
* [[The Gunslinger]]: El Mariachi is Type C, with undertones of Type A.
Line 55:
** The movie also suggests that the pain is in his head and the only thing injured is his confidence.
* [[Roaring Rampage of Revenge]]: His name is El Mariachi. You killed his girlfriend. Prepare to die.
* [[Sawed -Off Shotgun]]: El Mariachi uses this in the first major bar shootout, before switching to the Rugers for the rest of the movie.
* [[Senseless Violins]]: Multiple variations.
* [[Shrouded in Myth]]: Deconstructed. El Mariachi has a buddy go ahead of him to towns and spread tales about him.
