To the Bat Noun: Difference between revisions

* Used at the end of ''[[Young Frankenstein]]'', when the rehabilitated Monster accidentally rips off Inspector Kemp's wooden arm while shaking hands:

* During ''It's a Very, Merry Muppet Christmas Movie'', after Kermit's little nephew Robin suggests him to call one of his famous friends after Miss Piggy leaves the Christmas play, Kermit says "To the starphone!" accompanied by Batman-sounding music.

* ''[[Flushed Away]]'': "Enough games. To the ratmobiles!

** Éomer: "Rohirrim! To the King!"

* [[Captain Underpants]]:

'''Harold''': There is no underwear cave! }}

* Parodied in ''[[Animorphs]]'':

== Live Action TV ==

* Parodied in ''[[Angel]]'' when Spike mocks the title character's hero complex by narrating as Angel saves a woman from being mugged. We can't hear the real dialogue between Angel and the woman, but we hear Spike speak for Angel, "Evil's still afoot, and I'm almost out of that nancy-boy hair gel I like so much. Quickly! To the Angelmobile! Away!"

* ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]'' uses this trope to mock the title character of ''[[Puma Man]]'' when he attempts a heroic cape swish.

** And again in ''[[This Island Earth]]'':

** And ''[[Riding With Death]]'':

* Parodied in [[Mock the Week]] with Scenes We'd Like To See, "Lines you wouldn't hear in a superhero film"

* ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]'': "To the Willowbrook Mall!"

* ''[[I'm in The Band]]'': Usually, though not always, "To the band van!"

== Web Original ==

* ''[[Homestar Runner]]'': Used in the Strong Bad Email [http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail48.html ghosts] (followed immediately by a Batman-style scene transition):

'''Strong Bad''': Erm, well... meet me in the closet and, uh... we'll put on some costumes. }}

** Also used in an [[Easter Egg]] in [http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail195.html love poems], where Strong Sad expects to be called on the Strong Badphone.

** And of course, the mandatory employee meeting called with "To the Mandatorium!"

** And in case of emergencies, "To the Calamitorium!"

** Bender exhorts the others to get on the Planet Express Ship with "To the Flying Machine!"

* ''[[Family Guy]]'' plays with this three times:

* ''[[SpongeBob SquarePants]]''; Elderly Batman parody Mermaid Man is fond of these, but, due to his advanced age, occasionally requires a moment to catch his breath before finishing the declaration. The drama is also undercut by his tendency to shuffle off slowly and lose track of his [[Thememobile|Invisible Boatmobile]].

* ''[[Avatar: The Last Airbender]]'': Sokka invokes this trope when he picks where to spend his mini-vacation. He always did have a [[Large Ham|flair for the dramatic]].

* ''[[Superfriends]]'': The Friends had to get everywhere -- and fast!

* ''[[Invader Zim]]'': Zim once got lost and had to take a taxi back home: "Take me to...[[Large Ham|that way!]]"

* ''[[The Spectacular Spider-Man]]'': When Hobie Brown {{spoiler|has to take over Harry's role in the play}}, the [[Large Ham|drama teacher]] shouts "To the dressing-room, Brown!"

* In every episode of ''[[George of the Jungle|Super Chicken]]'', after the eponymous chicken's [[Transformation Sequence]], he'd head off for his flying domed giant egg with:

'''Fred''': "Roger wilcox!" }}

* ''[[The Emperor's New Groove|The Emperors New Groove]]'' features a villainous version with Yzma's "To the secret lab!"
