The Adventures of Ford Fairlane: Difference between revisions

Line 35:

* [[Fan Service]]: The scene at the [[Meaningful Name|I Eta Pi]] sorority house, oh so very much.

** Also the girl from the "Cradle of Love" music video, not featured in the movie but still worth noting.

* [[~~Five Five Five~~]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in the opening scene when Fairlane gives his number to a young hottie he meets at a club. She protests, telling him that 555 isn't a real number, just one used in movies. He responds with "Yeah--no shit, honey, what do you think this is, [[Breaking the Fourth Wall|real life]]?"

* [[The Fun in Funeral]]: The funeral for posthumous character Bobby Black is a circus to begin with, starting with a sleazy guy scalping tickets and offering discounts to women who, um, service him first. It only goes downhill from there, when Smiley shows up to kidnap Zuzu Petals. Ford and Smiley have a merry car chase through the cemetery, knocking over Bobby Black's circular glass casket in the process, causing it to roll downhill with screaming fangirls in hot pursuit.

* [[Giggling Villain]]: Robert Englund's leather-and-chains-clad mercinary shows up out of nowhere, says "'ello, 'ello!", and giggles like a lunatic while trying to kill Fairlane. Although he's never given a name, Fairlane starts [[Known Only By Their Nickname|referring to him as "Smiley."]]
