The Scream: Difference between revisions

A character finds something out, sees something frightening or has something utterly horrible happen to them, and as a result, they scream. 😱 Cut to a shot of the surrounding area with the audio of the scream still going, then to the countryside (where it might disturb livestock or a farmer or must cause birds to burst from the brush in a panic), and possibly further back to a shot of Earth from space all the while with the scream still looped in the background (it has been applied to the [[Big No]] as well).

* ''[[Time Splitters]] Future Perfect'' has a version where Sgt. Cortez shouts "Goddamnit" so loud, it can be heard approximately 100 years '''in the past'''.

* Very much a non-comedic example: in the manga detailing the events leading up to ''[[Sengoku Basara]] 3'', . {{spoiler|[[Blood Knight|Date]] [[Handicapped Badass|Masamune]] of all people gets one of these when he runs up against Ishida Mitsunari. Oh, notNot for himself, even though Mitsunari beats the shit out of him and actually '''gores him'' through the stomach; it's when he regains consciousness in the [[Field of Blades|ruins of the battlefield]] and sees [[No-Holds-Barred Beatdown|what]] [[Ludicrous Gibs|Mitsunari]] [[Curb Stomp Battle|did]] to his [[Mauve Shirt|army of dorky mooks]] and his beloved [[Battle Butler]] [[Wiser Advisor|Katakura]] [[Hypercompetent Sidekick|Kojurou]] when they [[Big Damn Heroes|tried to protect Masamune while he was passed out from blood loss]]. Watching one of the most [[Badass]] fighters in a series that practically [[Rule of Cool|runs]] on [[Badass]] break down screaming and crying is...[[Tear Jerker|slightly upsetting]].}}

* In ''[[The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask|The Legend of Zelda Majoras Mask]]'', the facial expression of the Zora Elegy of Emptiness statue uncannily resembles Munch's painting.

* In ''[[Two Lumps]]'' "The Scream" washas been [http://twolumps.net/d/20050801.html spoofed] at least [http://twolumps.net/d/20060703.html twice] so far.
