Added example: Yoda in ESB

Added DiffLines:

** Again in The Empire Strikes Back, Yoda breaks from his manneristic speech to warn Luke in plain language, "You will be," rather than "Be so, you will." ("Afraid," that is.)

** 'Film/StarTrekFirstContact' is almost a feature length example of this trope when it comes to Jean-Luc Picard. The very picture of the taciturn, reserved, professional, stoic, morally and ethically upright Captain doing things like smashing drones in the face with a Tommy Gun, and hurling cutting insults at his most trusted officers and smashing his own display case tells us that when the Borg assimilated him he was hurt in ways a nice cup of Earl Grey just won't be able to fix.

* In-Universe in ''Film/BeyondTheLights''. Before deciding to [[DrivenToSuicide jump off her balcony]] Noni, a teetotaler, downs an ENTIRE bottle of champagne during the car ride back to her hotel. Disturbingly, her "people" completely miss the huge red flag -- and actually seem PROUD that their "girl" is "imbibing"!
* Used to dramatic effect in ''Film/{{Deadpool|2016}}''.

** Throughout his entire time being experimented on, Wade keeps up an endless stream of wisecracks. But when Francis puts him through an absolutely ''horrific'' torture (a pod that keeps Wade just short of asphyxiation - and he leaves him there for ''forty-eight hours''), and the resulting mutation turns him into a hideous freak, Wade's only responses are screaming ''"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE TO ME?!?"'' and furiously calling Francis a "sadistic fuck".

** In ''Film/GodzillaVsKong'', Godzilla is behaving abnormally, rampaging on population centers for no obvious reason ([[HumansAreMorons emphasis on the word "obvious"]]) and changing his territorial routes -- the world jumps to the conclusion that Godzilla has [[FaceHeelTurn turned against humanity]], but Team Godzilla as basically the OnlySaneMan of the cast and of their entire species suspect something else is up, noticing Godzilla was flashing his intimidation display at every city he rampaged in. It turns out [[spoiler:the real reason for each of Godzilla's rampages is that he can sense Mechagodzilla, or more precisely he can sense Ghidorah's NotQuiteDead remains that are controlling Mechagodzilla, calling out to him with a mechanized version of Ghidorah's bio-acoustics at each of the attacked locations]].

** In the novelization of ''Film/RevengeOfTheSith'' the narration mentions Bail Organa is not a man prone to profanity, but the sight of the Jedi Temple in flames causes him to utter a string of obscenities that would make a Corellian dock worker blush.

He also says, "You have ''got'' to be shitting me," when he runs into [[spoiler:his [[Film/TheAvengers2012 past self]]]].

*** Spock's reaction when [[spoiler:Scotty calls him down to the reactor room]]. He doesn't even know what happened, only that [[spoiler:something terrible has happened to Kirk]].

Which leads to his ''rage'' when [[spoiler:Kirk dies]].
