* ''Website/CollegeHumor'': In "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOtgF3eCn-Y The App That Does Everything... Poorly!]]", the site promotes Omni, a do-everything app. The narrator hooks the prospective viewer by asking, "How many times have you said, 'I like Instagram, but I wish it was more like Snapchat?'

Instagram has added stories, while Uber now has Uber Eats, and Facebook has expanded their video features.

** In early 2015, they ran an article called "[[http://www.cracked.com/quick-fixes/5-famous-movies-that-are-getting-unspeakably-bad-sequels/ 5 Famous Movies That Are Getting Unspeakably Bad Sequels]]," and one of the movies highlighted was ''Film/{{Creed}}''. The writer proceeded to mock both Creator/MichaelBJordan and Creator/SylvesterStallone, and ultimately concluded that Adonis Creed sounded like an unlikable and unsympathetic character. ''Creed'' ended up opening to massive critical acclaim, with a good deal of the reviews praising Adonis as a complex and relatable protagonist, and Stallone ended up getting an Oscar nomination for his work.

* A blog called High Impact Classification, which deals with ratings boards, made a post in March of 2018 about [[https://highimpactclassification.wordpress.com/2018/05/06/10-of-the-esrbs-most-questionable-decisions/ questionable ESRB ratings]]. The entry for ''VideoGame/MegaManBattleNetwork2'' ends with a hypothetical reaction of disbelief at the idea of a T-rated ''Franchise/MegaMan'' game. Four months later, the ''VideoGame/MegaManX Legacy Collection'' was released and got a T-rating.

** "The Ancient Lost Art of ''TV Guide'' Advertising" Vol. 7, "[[http://www.platypuscomix.net/bored/tvguideads7.html The Bicentennial]]", shares [[http://www.platypuscomix.net/bored/bicentennial24.JPG a cover]] promoting the ''Series/WonderWoman'' TV show. Underneath, Peter laments that Franchise/WonderWoman apparently doesn't seem relatable enough for her own theatrical movie, with the rejection of a Creator/JossWhedon-penned screenplay prompting him to declare, "if Joss can't make it work, no one can." Eventually, Allan Heinberg and Creator/PattyJenkins would respectively pen and direct [[Film/WonderWoman2017 Wonder Woman's first big-screen solo movie]], and turn it into the first critical darling among the Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse's films. This statement might have also become HarsherInHindsight during the year of that movie's premiere, due to the scathing receptions of Joss' leaked ''Wonder Woman'' script, and the first released DC film with him as a credited screenwriter, ''Film/JusticeLeague2017''; the latter would even receive a recut four years later, [[Film/ZackSnydersJusticeLeague either replacing or deleting all of his material]].
