-->'''Padma:''' Hermione, relax. Either you can fly a broom or you can't. It isn't a big deal. Madam Hooch won't give you a failing grade if you can't fly. This is an optional class, after all. Just see if you can fly during class, and if you can't... you don't have to go to the Lesson anymore. Just treated it like a Free period like we do on Tuesdays. No one will care.\\
'''Hermione:''' B-but... we're witches! We're supposed to be able to fly on a broom!\\
'''Lisa:''' You've read far too many Muggle books as a little girl, Granger. Witches flying brooms is pretty much a Muggle cliche. Really, the only reason to fly a broom these days is for Quidditch. Are you going to play Quidditch?

-->'''Harry:''' Listen fucknut. England threw me away. They snapped my wand, telling me that I couldn't practice magic in England again. A corrupt Ministry at that. What did Fudge do when it was learned that Riddle had come back? Not a damn thing. You still have blood purists running that god forsaken place, and there is no way in hell that my wife and I are going to return there. So you can take your greater good, shine it up really sparkly, turn that son of a bitch sideways and stick it up your geriatric ass!\\
'''Remus:''' You watch too much Tele, Harry.

* ''Fanfic/AGameOfCatAndCat'': "The Hunt Begins": Naoki gets chastised for thinking that criminals are all linked in one big hierarchy due to too many movies:
--> The leader put her palm to her forehead and sighed. "What do you think this is, a movie? Did you really think that just because you know how to fight, you could just pick one punk-looking chelloveck off the street, and they'd take you straight to the nearest mob boss?! Get your bleedin' rassoodock out of the sinny, you nadmenny malchick!"\\
Naoki was fluent in about a dozen demonic languages, including the weird ones like Middle Avio-Raptor and Archaic Western Haunt, but he'd never heard anything like that. "…What?"\\
"Get your head out of the theater, you arrogant boy," repeated the leader scornfully.
