Trope Workshop:Indelible Reputation: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Big Hero 6]]'' has Wasabi mutter that he got his nickname due to spilling wasabi on his shirt one time. Some dubs amp this by revealing he ate an entire spoonful of wasabi and reacted appropriately.

* ''[[Toy Story (franchise)|Toy Story]]''

** ''[[Toy Story 2]]'' has the toys cringe when Buzz reminds them how Woody didn't give up after they tossed him out of the moving van in the first movie. Mr. Potato Head even asks why he had to bring it up again.

* ''[[Wreck-It Ralph]]''

** Vannelope can't quite escape her nickname as "The Glitch" and King Candy uses it to justify why he never lets her enter the races; if she glitches during a session, the players will think she's broken and the arcade owner will unplug the game. Vanellope would then die, since her glitch wouldn't let her escape with the other players, and she's actually calm about that possibility. {{spoiler|He's lying; if Vanellope crossed the finish line, the game would reset and she'd regain her true identity. Also, her glitching becomes a form of teleportation, which players adore once Vanellope resumes her rightful position as head gamer.}}

** Becomes a [[Chekhov's Gun]] with the phrase "Going Turbo" refers to a character leaving their game and hijacking someone else's. Felix explains to Calhoun, whose cabinet is new to the arcade: Turbo was a 2D racing character who got jealous on seeing a new racing cabinet getting attention. So he hopped games and tried to appear in the more popular one, which led to both cabinets getting "Out of Order" signs because the arcade owner naturally thought they were glitching. And if those games get unplugged forever? The characters become homeless if they manage to escape being erased. {{spoiler|Turns out Turbo got smarter about it with his second attempt; he went into Sugar Rush, corrupted the code to erase Vanellope, and installed himself as King Candy, with improved graphics to hide his 3D nature. Quite fittingly, it is Vanellope's acquired glitching powers thanks to this corruption that expose Turbo's true form during the climax.}}
