9''How It Should Have Ended'' is an Internet parody series depicting alternate endings for popular movies. It was started by Daniel Baxter and Tommy Watson, featuring Tina Alexander. The episodes are hand drawings given animation, and augmented with special effects and music. Each features an original "ending" that ranges from crazy awesome {{crossover}}s, to ridiculous and funny developments, to deconstructing it by [[KillHimAlready simply shooting the villain]] or [[WhyDontYaJustShootHim the hero]], or [[TakeAThirdOption taking a third, sensible action]] the characters didn't consider. It also hosts featurettes such as the ''Super Café'' SpinOff, the ''Hero Swap'' crossover spinoff and some comics.

296!!Tropes used in spoofs:
297%%If one episode references another movie that shares a cast member with the main subject, please put it on the Shout Out page, unless the real actor voices the characters.
298[[folder:A-E]]
299* TheEighties: The ''X-Men: Apocalypse'' episode is rife with EightiesHair, '80s-style civilian clothing, and there's an '80s-sounding synth pop song which plays over Quicksilver's BulletTime scene and the end credits. Mystique transforms into Creator/MichaelKeaton's Bruce Wayne from the [[Film/Batman1989 1989 film]] at the very end.
300* AbortedArc: Batman is troubled by those two or three [[Film/ZackSnydersJusticeLeague bad dreams he had]], and fears that Darkseid is coming to get the planet. Superman dismisses the whole idea: how would Darkseid do that, if Batman is about to be [[Film/TheBatman2022 rebooted]]? Batman does not care: the dreams demand an outcome, and fans will not rest until they see Batman fight through a Mad Max wasteland.
301-->'''Superman:''' Or we could just toss it up to bad dreams and call it a day and just move on with our lives.
302* ActuallyPrettyFunny: After Captain America gets fed up with Superman and Batman making fun of him, this happens:
303-->'''Cap:''' But wait! Shh! Do you guys hear that?\
304''[{{beat}}]''\
305'''Batman:''' Hear what?\
306'''Cap:''' Is that the ComicBook/{{Justice League|of America}} calling?\
307''[beat]''\
308'''Superman:''' I don't hear anything.\
309'''Batman:''' Yeah, me neither.\
310'''Cap:''' [[Film/TheAvengers2012 Exactly!]]\
311''[Superman laughs]''\
312'''Batman:''' Whammo!\
313'''Superman:''' Captain America burn!
314* AdaptationalHeroism: Rexy in HISHE's dub of ''Film/JurassicPark1993''. Albeit a clumsy, accident-prone one.
315-->Dr. Alan Grant: "The T-Rex saved us?! I'll bet that never happens again!"
316* AdaptationalIntelligence: The scientist in ''Film/SpiderMan3'' who passes the last button on the test that ended up turning Flint Marko into the Sandman has the good sense here to tell his coworkers to actually check on the "change in the silicon mass" before they continue.
317* AdaptationalVillainy: Katniss in ''The Hunger Games''. She chickens out at the last moment when she has to eat the Nightlock and doesn't show any remorse when Peeta dies.
318* AffablyEvil:
319** Their interpretation of Darth Vader as a highly quirky individual, who stops to gleefully run around the galaxy informing everyone when he discovers he has kids!
320--->'''Vader:''' I have a ''daughter'' too! That is ''wonderful!'' I must tell everyone!\
321'''Emperor:''' You see what you did? Who knows how long he'll be running around like that! Do you ''realize'' how annoying it is to put up with him this way?!
322** In general, all of the villains in the Villain Pub are genuinely friendly with each other and are perfectly willing to have civil conversations and offer advice to each other about various villain-related topics. It's particularly noticeable with the Joker and Palpatine, whose affability in their original films is [[FauxAffablyEvil far from genuine]].
323** Save Jesse Eisenberg's ComicBook/LexLuthor. He's brought in just to show him how great the pub is -- then the villains ban him.
324* AffectionateParody: Sometimes. They also have a knack of making fun of films but making fans of the film laugh as well as haters. One example of this is their take on ''Film/TheSocialNetwork''. While it does change the ending, it doesn't actually point out the many logical problems with the movie, it just presents the events in a funnier way.
325* AlasPoorVillain: In-universe, the "I'm just a lonely Zombie" song from ''Resident Evil''.
326* AllJustADream: Indy believes his exploits in ''Kingdom of the Crystal Skull'' to be this.
327* AllStarCast: [[invoked]] Parodied in the ''[[Film/OceansEleven Ocean's 40]]'' trailer.
328* AllianceOfAlternates: After meeting the Spider gang from ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'', Batman daydreams that he would like to hang out with the Batmen from the Bat universe. Then he is in the cafe with ''Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy'' Batman, [[Series/Batman1966 Adam West's Batman]], ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' Batman, ''Film/BatmanAndRobin'' Batman, [[Film/BatmanReturns Tim Burton's Batman]], the ''Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse'' Batman, and even ''WesternAnimation/BatmanBeyond'', as well as the ''[[WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie LEGO]]'' [[WesternAnimation/TheLegoBatmanMovie Batman]] if you look very closely. When Batman said "because I'm Batman", all the others jumped to point that they are also Batman. Then he admits that it wasn't such a good idea after all.
329* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Batman and Groot start a catchphrase duel: "I'm Batman", "I am Groot", "I'm Batman", "I am Groot", and so on for a while. Batman gets the hiccup, and Groot wins.
330* AlternateCharacterInterpretation:
331** One of [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Glinda the Good Witch]] becomes revealed in-universe after one of the Munchkins shoots the Wicked Witch of the West:
332--->'''Glinda:''' Well, this ruins my plan to send you [Dorothy] on a journey, and teach you a lesson, and eventually have you ''kill the Wicked Witch yourself!''
333** One of [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Bowser]] becomes revealed in one of the other videos: he witnessed Mario slaughter his people, and so decided to call Princess Peach for negotiations. Unfortunately, Mario always interrupts, and nearly kills Bowser in the process.
334** Bella from ''Film/{{Twilight}}'' when turned is ''not'' a VegetarianVampire like the Cullens and is pretty damn happy about it.
335--->'''Bella:''' Let's go eat some PEOPLE! Woo!
336* AmbiguousSituation: [[spoiler:After Thor unintentionally snaps his fingers twice with his hand that has the Infinity Gauntlet, everyone in the Super Cafe responds with an MassOhCrap reaction. We then cut to the Villain Pub which shows all the villains getting disintegrated. It's unknown whether if the heroes at the cafe suffered the same fate or dodged the bullet.]]
337* AndThisIsFor: {{Downplayed}}. In the ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3'' episode, Characters/MCUTheHighEvolutionary is PunchedAcrossTheRoom just once by Characters/SupermanGeneralZod, who says "That was for Groot!"
338* AnticlimaxCut: See "How the ''Batman v Superman'' SDCC Teaser Should Have Ended", and get ready for a very violent fight between Superman and Batman... or not.
339-->'''Superman:''' Wanna take some coffee?\
340'''Batman:''' Yes
341* ArmourIsUseless: Invoked during ''Return of the Jedi''.
342-->'''Stormtrooper:''' We're wearing armor and these Ewoks are ''still'' killing us!
343* ArtEvolution: The animation became livelier as the show progressed.
344* ArtifactTitle: The series became more about random ''WesternAnimation/FamilyGuy'' or ''WesternAnimation/RobotChicken''-style skits.
345* ArtShift: "[[WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie The Lego HISHE]]" is animated in stop motion with real Franchise/{{LEGO}}.
346* AscendedMeme:
347** The "Darth Jar Jar" meme/theory made it into the ''Revenge of the Sith'' video, as after Palpatine is defeated, he reveals himself as the ''true'' Sith Lord, as many fans predict to come true sometime in the Sequel Trilogy.
348** Snoke, from ''Film/TheLastJedi''. He's Literature/DarthPlagueis, y'all!
349* AsideGlance: The re-dub of ''Infinity War'' makes a joke over making Thanos' army promise not to dig under the shield, and then when that stops holding true, makes it look like Black Panther is complaining directly to the audience over "Why did I tell them that?!".
350* AssShove: ''Film/PulpFiction'' has Butch choosing to make sure that his treasured watch is NOT forgotten thanks to an airhead girlfriend.
351-->'''Butch:''' In fact... I'm continuing the tradition, baby!
352* AugmentedReality: Superman and Wonder Woman play ''VideoGame/PokemonGo''... and Batman plays ''Batman GO'', with criminals, in RealLife.
353* AwardSnub: InUniverse with the Best Picture Summary series, in which characters from a popular movie that year wonder why their latest film did not get a Best Picture Oscar nomination. The ''The Revenant'' HISHE awards the Oscar to the two bear cubs while Creator/LeonardoDiCaprio sits unhappily in his chair, passed over again.
354* BackupFromOtherworld: In ''The Rise of Skywalker'' HISHE, Rey [[spoiler:calls upon the Force ghosts of Qui-Gon Jinn, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Yoda, Mace Windu, Luke and Anakin Skywalker, Aalya Secura, Ahsoka Tano, Luminara Unduli, Adi Gallia and Kanan Jarrus]] to help her against Palpatine.
355* BadGuyBar: The Villain Pub introduced in the ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmhEg-nDGJA Thor: The Dark World]]'' video.
356* BadGuyWins: HISHE installments usually contain at least one alternate ending where the villain wins, leading to a scene where the villain gloats about it in the Villain Pub, much to the delight (or in the High Evolutionary's case, ire) of the other villains.
357* BatmanCanBreatheInSpace: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUAYutI-el4 Of course he can.]] [[CharacterCatchphrase Because he's BATMAN!!!]]
358* BeautyIsNeverTarnished: Averted in "How ''Tangled'' should have ended," via an OverlyLongGag of random things getting stuck in Rapunzel's hair.
359* BeleagueredBoss: Sometimes things from the films happen the way they did because some mook or minion was not doing a good job. Which makes the boss (the BigBad, the "here's a bright idea" guy or some other authority figure) to step in and order them to do their damn job!
360* BigWhat: Shazam does this in the ''Shazam: Fury of the Gods'' HISHE after Black Adam appears and kills both Hespera and Kalypso in a shocked manner upon learning there’s another one like him.
361* BittersweetEnding:
362** Parodied in ''The Force Awakens'' HISHE. [[spoiler:Luke Skywalker shows up JustInTime to save Han Solo from being killed by Kylo Ren, but unfortunately, Han feels that Leia's going to be mad at him for failing to bring Kylo -- who is their son -- back to the light side of the Force.]]
363** In ''The Force Awakens'' Alternate HISHE, [[spoiler:the Resistance uses ''their'' secret weapon, the Right Back Atcha, to destroy Starkiller Base in one shot. Unfortunately, Rey couldn't escape in time. As Finn grieves for her, Leia reminds him that she also lost her son, and Spock reminds them that "The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few."]]
364* BlackBeadEyes: Most of the characters have these.
365* BlatantLies: The ''Film/OceansEleven'' parody ''Ocean's 40'' movie trailer said that it was BasedOnATrueStory.
366* BondGunBarrel: "How ''Casino Royale'' Should Have Ended" begins with all the official ''Film/JamesBond'' actors up to that point (in order of appearance: Creator/DanielCraig, Creator/PierceBrosnan, Creator/RogerMoore, Creator/GeorgeLazenby, Creator/SeanConnery, and Creator/TimothyDalton), plus [[spoiler:Creator/WoodyAllen, James Bond's nephew in ''Film/CasinoRoyale1967'',]] arguing over who gets to shoot at the camera.
367* BondOneLiner: Newt delivers one to the queen after helping Ripley and Bishop gun it down in ''Aliens''.
368-->'''Newt:''' You're mostly dead now. Mostly.
369* BondVillainStupidity:
370** Darren Cross leaves Hank and Hope alone with the Yellowjacket suit, inadvertently giving them the perfect opportunity to steal it, then [[spoiler:use Hank's tank to destroy the data servers for Cross' weapons]].
371** Lampshaded, played straight, and [[JustifiedTrope justified]] in the fifth ''Villain Pub'' episode. Palpatine successfully captures Batman and puts him in a near-unescapable trap. However, he immediately declares that he and the villains won't stay to make sure that the trap succeeds in killing him, as it's basic villain policy. Plus, it's closing time and Palpatine wants to go home.
372* BoringButPractical: James Bond's plan to [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim simply arrest Le Chiffre]] rather than go through M's complicated plot from the [[Film/CasinoRoyale actual movie]].
373* {{Bowdlerise}}:
374** When Drax asks Star-Lord what exactly life is giving them a chance to do, Star-Lord answers, "To give a crap!", instead of the more profane response he gave in the movie.
375** Marty asks Doc if he and Jennifer become "a-holes" in the future.
376** When Iron Man asks Captain America if he knew about [[spoiler:his parents]] being assassinated by the Winter Soldier, he says "Don't bull''crap'' me Rogers, did you know?!", instead of the more profane version he gave in the movie.
377* BrattyHalfPint: That kid from the beginning of the ''Spider-Man 3'' video, a pompous little snot who thinks he can boss Spider-Man — friggin' ''Spider-Man'' — around and tell him what to do, like stop narrating.
378* BreakoutCharacter: The episodes with ComicBook/{{Superman}} and ComicBook/{{Batman}} at the café are considered by many to be the best shorts. As a result, they received their own show: ''Super Café''.
379* BreakoutVillain: In the same line of thought, the villains of cinema have also received their own spin-off in the ''Villain Pub'' series. Whereas ''Super Café'' revolves around Batman and Superman, ''Villain Pub'' usually stars [[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse Loki]], [[Film/HarryPotter Lord Voldemort]], [[Film/TheDarkKnight The Joker]], and [[Franchise/StarWars Emperor Palpatine]] (the bartender), and whichever villain starred in the movie ''HISHE'' is parodying.
380* BrokenMasquerade: In ''How Toy Story 3 Should Have Ended'', the toys reveal to Andy that they're alive...while he's in the middle of driving, making him scream and crash the car.
381* TheBusCameBack: The kid from ''How Spider-Man 3 Should Have Ended'' came back 12 years later in ''How Into the Spiderverse Should Have Ended'', now a young man, and still telling Peter to stop narrating.
382* ButtMonkey:
383** Creator/TobeyMaguire's Spider-Man. Especially at the end of ''The Avengers'' video.
384--->'''Spider-Man:''' When do I get to come in the café?\
385'''Superman:''' Dude, nobody said you can't come in here.\
386'''Batman:''' Yeah, this is a public place.\
387'''Spider-Man:''' ... I've been hanging around out here for two years!\
388'''Superman:''' Yeah, we know.\
389'''Batman:''' It's been hilarious.
390** ''Both'' Superman and Batman gradually get put through the ringer due to the poor receptions of the DCEU movies. It only gets worse with how well critically and commercially the Wonder Woman and Aquaman solo movies end up doing. Batman in particular is frequently portrayed as a CasanovaWannabe and ends up [[HumiliationConga getting a massive helping of mockery]] in the ''Dawn of Justice'' video.
391** Poor Scott Lang gets flown through by Vision, and [[spoiler:sat on by Superman]], in the ''Civil War'' video.
392* CallBack:
393** The ''Pacific Rim'' parody features Godzilla coming out of the rift instead of Slattern and then die immediately. In the ''Godzilla'' parody Gypsy Danger appears to fight the Kaiju, only to die immediately by Godzilla's Atomic Breath. Furthermore Gypsy opens up with its swords as Riley suggested.
394** In ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan2'' parody, the lab workers close the lid on the eel tank, using similar reasons to the lab workers taking Flint Marko out of the sand pit in their parody of ''Film/SpiderMan3''.
395** "When Captain America throws his mighty shield" turns up again at the end of the second and third movies, as Batman and Superman add to the list of things that don't yield.
396** In ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'', after Superman rescues his mother, he and Lex have a similar conversation just as when Superman grabbed the missiles in "How ''Superman'' Should Have Ended".
397** In ''The Force Awakens'', after the ''Millenium Falcon'' crashes into Starkiller Base, thus preventing the plan to lower the shield around the planet, C-3PO and Leia say, "Oh my." and "Well, so much for that idea...", which was said by C-3PO and General Jan Dodanna in the "How ''Star Wars: A New Hope'' Should Have Ended" video when the Death Star is in range of Yavin IV.
398* CannotKeepASecret: Batman apparently reveals (or tries to reveal) his SecretIdentity to every girl he finds attractive.
399-->'''Iron Man:''' You mean to tell me you've never revealed your secret identity before?\
400'''Batman:''' Uh, no.\
401'''Superman:''' Ha! Try every girl you've ever dated!\
402'''Batman:''' What?\
403'''Superman:''' "Oh, I'm Bruce Wayne, and I like you! Let me tell you my big secret!"\
404'''Batman:''' Oh, [[Film/SupermanII you're one to talk]], [[LaserGuidedAmnesia Mr. Mind Eraser]].
405* CanonDiscontinuity: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] in-universe, after Batman has declared that he has the power to "''make an incredibly awesome movie!''":
406-->'''Superman:''' So, we're just going to pretend like ''those'' guys never happened? ''[points to a table with [[Film/BatmanReturns Penguin]], [[Film/BatmanForever Two-Face, the Riddler]] and [[Film/BatmanAndRobin Mister Freeze]]]'' Is that what we're doing?\
407'''Batman:''' Yep.
408* CanonWelding: The show is fond of this, mostly in works involving superheroes.
409* CardboardPrison:
410** Iron Man points out that if he hadn't killed Obadiah Stane the latter was ''eventually'' going to escape imprisonment. ComicBook/{{Batman}} engages in SuspiciouslySpecificDenial about it:
411--->'''Batman:''' Yeah... that never happens.
412** Later referenced in the ''Film/BatmanBegins'' parody, when Ra's al-Ghul and Scarecrow break out of Arkham for a night at the [[BadGuyBar Villain Pub]].
413* CasanovaWannabe: Batman. His go-to pickup line is asking "You wanna know my secret identity?", and no-one ever does. So far he's struck out with such notable characters as ComicBook/EmmaFrost, ComicBook/BlackWidow, ComicBook/{{Catwoman}}, [[WesternAnimation/TheLegoMovie Wyldstyle]], [[Characters/DoctorWhoRevivalSeriesCompanionsClaraOswald Clara Oswald]], ComicBook/ScarletWitch and probably many more.
414* CaptainObvious: From ''Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'', when Bruce tells Jack O'Dwyer to evacuate the building.
415-->'''Bruce:''' You need to get everyone out of the building, NOW!\
416'''Jack:''' ''[watching General Zod's spacecraft through the window]'' Oh, you THINK? [...] You think that's a good idea Mr. Wayne?
417* CatchPhraseInterruptus: Sometimes Batman doesn't get time to finish exclaiming, "Because I'm Batman!" due to the video ending. Superman also interrupts an instance of Bats trying to use the phrase as a HandWave as he asks Tony Stark to continue his story.
418* CharacterCatchphrase:
419** ComicBook/{{Batman}}:
420*** "I'm Batman." / "Because I'm Batman!" Based on the recurring line from the films.
421*** "You wanna know my secret identity?" based on Batman revealing his secret identity to all his girlfriends.
422*** In the ''Venom'' video, when Batman asks Dr. Skirth, she answers that she really ''does'' want to hear his secret identity, and he's so used to the routine that he loses track of what he should say.
423** Film/IronMan1: "Tank missile!" To the point even non-Tony Stark characters played by Creator/RobertDowneyJr use it.
424* CharacterizationMarchesOn: The first time Batman said, "Because I'm Batman!", it sounded more subdued than later instances.
425* CharlieAndTheChocolateParody: Mostly the "scary tunnel" sequence.
426* ChekhovsGun: The ''Wizard of Oz'' video contains a literal example. As Dorothy rides a carriage through Munchkinland, some Munchkins with guard uniforms and giant guns march behind her. See WhyDontYouJustShootHim below for the payoff.
427* ChristmasEpisode: "The Holiday Movie Special".
428* CloseOnTitle: "How ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'' Should Have Ended", closes on the HISHE logo, following Creator/ChristopherNolan's lead.
429* ClumsyCopyrightCensorship: "How ''Frozen'' Should Have Ended" has a cover of "Let it Go" during the first stinger, but Disney made ''HISHE'' release a version with different lyrics.
430-->''Where'd it go? Where'd it go?\
431That other song is gone!''
432* ComicallyMissingThePoint: ''The Dark Knight'' video has the Chechen completely miss the point of Joker's "magic trick".
433-->'''Chechen:''' That wasn't a magic trick! I saw the pencil just went up into his eye, this is lame...
434* ComplexityAddiction:
435** Depicts Luke Skywalker has one in ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'' due to his plan to rescue Han Solo from Jabba the Hutt.
436--->'''Luke:''' Aww. But I wanted us to sneak in one at a time and make the plan stupid elaborate.
437** [[Film/AntMan1 Hank Pym]] states that "''Film/MissionImpossible1996'' with ants"'' would have been a much cooler plan than the improvised one they used with the tank.
438* ContrivedCoincidence: According to Batman, the destruction of Krypton being "a fixed point in time", as a reason [[Series/DoctorWho the Doctor]] didn't save it. According to the Doctor, Batman's utility belt having anything he needs for the situation at hand.
439* ConverseWithTheUnconscious: Subverted and PlayedForLaughs in the video for ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2''. When the Guardians are [[OncePerEpisode hanging out with Batman and Superman]] in the café at the end, Mantis puts Batman to sleep because he annoyed her. It's later revealed that [[spoiler:even though he was asleep, he was still listening to everything that was said.]] Why? Because he's Batman.
440* CoolButInefficient: Weaponizing dinosaurs might be cool, but anyone you could assassinate via dinosaur could be offed far cheaper and easier just by using a gun. In fact, the threat of dinosaurs in general. They might be scary to unarmed and isolated tourists, but modern armies have things like guns and artillery that would make short work of them.
441* CoolOldGuy: Creator/JimmyStewart claims he's one in "A Look Back at ''Film/ItsAWonderfulLife''.
442* CouldHaveAvoidedThisPlot:
443** In the ''Avatar'' video, the human scientists tell Jake that instead of leading the Na'vi to war, he could just have told them about the {{Unobtanium}} beneath their home tree, which would have led to a peaceful solution to the conflict. Jake admits he forgot about that just to hook up with Neytiri; and when one of the scientists remarks that people died, Jake can only sheepishly apologize.
444** In the ''Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice'' video, Superman says that Batman could have just talked to him, instead of trying to kill him.
445** In the ''Winter Soldier'' video, Steve and Natasha have successfully escaped from all the HYDRA goons, and are now planning their next move. She then mentions about her mask that allows to mimic any face. Once they discuss about it, they realize that they could have both avoided all that escape, and that [[StatingTheSimpleSolution there was a much simpler way to defeat HYDRA]].
446** In HISHE Kids' "Fixed Fairy Tales", the plot of ''Goldilocks and the Three Bears'' is averted by the bears simply remembering to lock the front door.
447* {{Crossover}}:
448** "''Franchise/{{Terminator}}'': How It Should End" is actually a fantastic mock trailer crossover between ''Terminator'' and ''[[spoiler:Franchise/BackToTheFuture]]''.
449** [[Franchise/SuperMarioBros Bowser manages to finally get rid of Mario]] by [[VideoGame/{{Portal}} tricking him into the Aperture Science facility.]]
450--->[=GLaDOS=]: [[AC:Could I interest you in some delicious cake?]]
451** ''VideoGame/{{Slender}}'' and ''Film/TheHungerGames''
452** In ''Film/JurassicPark'' the survivors are flown off the island in a chopper piloted by [[Series/{{Lost}} Lapidus]].
453** ''Film/StarTrek2009'' ends with Kirk ordering the ''Enterprise'' through the wormhole after they fail to escape it. They come out on the other side and are accidentally blasted by [[Franchise/StarWars The Death Star.]]
454--->'''Darth Vader:''' Ooohhh, we are gunna get [[FandomRivalry sooo much crap]] for that.
455** Every superhero movie video will end up in the cafe with Superman and Batman.
456** Likewise, movie villains now argue in the Villain Pub. The first one in ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld'' features [[Film/ManOfSteel Zod]] in a neckbrace and [[Film/TheDarkKnight the Joker]] alongside Loki, with [[Literature/TheSilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal Lecter]], [[Film/TwoThousandOneASpaceOdyssey HAL 9000]], and the Franchise/{{Predator}} in short cameos and a badly injured Malekith showing up.
457** The ''WebVideo/HonestTrailers'' narrator cameos in the end of "How ''Star Trek into Darkness'' Should Have Ended", after HISHE created a skit in the WebVideo/HonestTrailers video of ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness''.
458** In ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', Grand Pabbie takes a young Elsa to [[spoiler:[[Film/XMenFilmSeries The Xavier School for Gifted Youngsters]]]].
459** ''Film/AntMan1'' has a stinger about Ant-Man II meeting the ''Franchise/ToyStory'' toys, who mistake him for another spaceman toy until he grows giant.
460* CrossoverShip: Invoked in ''How VideoGame/{{Portal}} Should Have Ended'', in which Chell goes on a date with Gordon from ''VideoGame/HalfLife'', another HeroicMime created by Creator/ValveSoftware.
461* CurbStompBattle:
462** Batman takes on pretty much ''the whole Villain Pub'', beating the shit out of several villains in no time, and almost wins.
463** In an ImagineSpot in the LEGO ''Film/TheForceAwakens'', [[spoiler:Kylo Ren is on the receiving end of one of these from Luke Skywalker.]]
464* CurrencyCuisine: In ''How Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull Should Have Ended'', Creator/GeorgeLucas, Creator/StevenSpielberg, and Shia Labeouf were eating bowls of dollar bills which were the profits from the movie's success.
465* CurseCutShort:
466** In the ''Film/PulpFiction'' video, Honey Bunny's exclamation of the f-word gets cut interrupted by [[spoiler:Superman and Batman revealing themselves sitting in the next booth]].
467** Logan's "Go fuck yourself" to Xavier and Erik gets interrupted by the future Logan's warnings about upcoming dangers.
468** When Iron Man, Thor, and Vison decide to keep firing at Ultron, his "Son of a- !" is interrupted by Cap saying "Language!"
469** The ''Film/Deadpool2016'' video begins with Captain America whacking Deadpool with his shield and shouting "Language!" before Deadpool can complete his curses, doubling as a ShoutOut to ''Age of Ultron''.
470* CutLexLuthorACheck:
471** Elektro plays with Spider-Man by tossing him around and making music with it. Spider-Man gave him an idea: he should try Dubstep. Great idea, Elektro loves being a DJ!
472** One of the random techs lampshades this in the ''Hunger Games'' parody...
473--->'''Tech:''' Hey, you guys ever think we should use all this money and technology to actually ''solve'' the world's problems? End world hunger? Save the rainforest? No, just me? We'd rather kids fight to the death. Okay... Just thought I'd ask.
474** After Darren Cross' potential investors realize that Pym Particle suits don't render their users ''completely'' invisible, just really tiny, they ask if he has anything else worth selling. He nervously demonstrates the gun that he invented to shrink things, but instead turns people into goop. The investors comment that this could prove a useful murder weapon, with one of them even asking Cross why he didn't open his presentation with the gun instead of the suits.
475* {{Cyborg}}: [[Film/{{Braveheart}} William Wallace]]
476* ConservationOfNinjutsu: Unlike original movies, this trope is averted in his parodies.
477* DancePartyEnding: In ''VideoGame/BioShock1'', Jack decides to stay in Rapture to party with the Splicers and Big Daddies.
478* DeathIsCheap: In ''Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows'', [[spoiler:Nagini killed Snape before Harry's eyes, but Snape's knowledge of potions and healing injuries helped him survive.]]
479* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: The rewritten version of "Time in a Bottle" from the ''Days of Future Past'' spoof.
480-->''If I could save time in the bottles of time\
481then I could save all of the time''
482* DiscreditedMeme: InUniverse, TheStinger of "How ''Skyrim'' Should Have Ended" has everyone show their hatred of the "arrow to the knee" meme;
483-->'''Guard:''' I used to be like [the Dragonborn]. Then I took an arrow--\
484'''Crowd:''' SHUT UP!
485* DirtyOldMan: [[spoiler:Old Luke at the end of ''The Force Awakens'' HISHE openly hits on Rey. She is totally grossed out at this.]]
486* DisneyDeath: Discussed in "How ''Captain America: The Winter Soldier'' Should Have Ended", after Batman points out that quite a few denizens of the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse had their deaths become either undone or revealed as fake (never mind the fact that Batman faked his own death in ''[[spoiler:Film/TheDarkKnightRises]]'').[[note]]Specific Marvel-related examples either mentioned or referenced during this scene include [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier Nick Fury]], [[Series/AgentsOfSHIELD Coulson]], [[Film/TheAvengers2012 Tony Stark]], [[Film/ThorTheDarkWorld Loki]], and [[Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014 Groot]].[[/note]]
487-->'''Superman:''' You keep dying and bringing people back to life, nobody will accept it if one of you actually gets killed someday.\
488'''Captain America:''' ''[laughs]'' None of us are gonna die! That's silly talk.\
489'''Batman:''' Okay, well we'll see.
490* TheDogWasTheMastermind: TheStinger of ''Film/SpiderMan3''.
491* DontExplainTheJoke: After Frodo destroys the ring:
492-->'''Frodo:''' Can you imagine what it would've been like if we had walked the entire way?\
493''[[[EverybodyLaughsEnding everybody starts laughing]]]''\
494'''Frodo:''' It's funny because it's extremely far.
495* DownerEnding: Has [[DownerEnding/HowItShouldHaveEnded its own page]].
496* DudeNotFunny: The LogoJoke for ''HISHE: Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' (which references the now-memetic ending sequence) causes an offscreen guy to bemoan it and cry "Too soon!" at the sight of it.
497* DungeonBypass: In ''WesternAnimation/InsideOut'', Joy realizes that the same mechanism the Forgetters use to repeatedly send [[EarWorm that annoying Triple-Dent Gum commercial]] up to Headquarters will let her send the crucial core memories there too. Once that's done, the remaining islands of personality stabilize, and she, Sadness, and Bing Bong ride the Train of Thought back home. Unfortunately, this quick fix leads to other problems (see the DownerEnding above).
498* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: ''How Film/TheMatrixRevolutions Should Have Ended'' ends with graphics detailing the creators' opinions on how the film should have concluded or altered its plotlines.
499** Their episode for ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan'' has a scene where Dr. Connors sets the information on his laptop to loop, for random people to visibly see what it's about, only for the lizard on to shoulder to whisper in his ear, and advise him not to do that. This is normally when the "Here's a Bright Idea" Guy would show up, and talk him out of it, as would happen in future Spider-Man themed spoofs.
500** The first Villain Pub short featured General Zod prominently, suggesting that it would be him in the Joker plus the villain of the week to mirror Superman and Batman in the Hero Cafe. Instead Loki (the "guest" of the first short) was the one who was retained and Voldemort took Zod's place in other Villain Pub material.
501* EasterEgg: At the end of "How ''The Avengers'' should have ended," not only do the boxes link to the videos about the Avengers' solo movies, and the onscreen heroes to their movies' parodies, but Superman's and Batman's tabletop and everything on it links to other vidoes featuring the duo.
502* EnemyMine: The Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse incarnations of Batman and Superman form an alliance with the Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse version of Ultron against the MCU Avengers.
503* EsotericHappyEnding: InUniverse, this applies to one of the ''Series/WandaVision'' endings, in which Wanda, instead of freeing the people of Westview at the cost of her husband and children, decides to just move the Hex with her after she leaves. She's happy about it, but Superman and Batman aren't, and criticize Wanda for not coming to terms with her grieving.
504* EvenEvilHasStandards:
505** PlayedForLaughs in the bonus scene for ''Film/TheHungerGames'', "The Careers and the Tree," when Cato solemnly warns the others in the group not to burn Katniss out of the tree or cut each other's throats in their sleep.
506** For ''Film/{{Ghostbusters 1984}}'', Zuul immediately calls out Peter Venkman for bringing thorazine to his planned date with Dana.
507** A character has to be unambiguously evil to hang out in the Villain Pub. This has gotten Deadpool and the Suicide Squad kicked out for technically being anti-heroes.
508** For ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol3'', all of the villains at Villains Pub hate the High Evolutionary for how utterly cruel and petty he is.
509* EveryEpisodeEnding: Each superhero-related episode ends with the heroes talking with Superman and Batman in the coffee shop except for ''Spider-Man 3'', where it appears briefly in the middle.
510* EverybodyDiesEnding: ''Film/{{Ghostbusters|1984}}'', ''Film/JurassicPark'', ''Slender Games'', and ''Breaking Dawn Part 2''.
511* EverybodyLaughsEnding: ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings''
512* EverybodysDeadDave: ''Avengers: Age Of Ultron'' (Part 1) ends with all the humans dead, except for [[spoiler:Superman and Batman]].
513* EverythingIsOnline: Ultron exploits this trope in ''Avengers: Age Of Ultron'' (Part 1) to shut down the Avengers' technology and send them on wild goose chases to distract them from his EvilPlan.
514* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: "Villain Pub: The Dead Pool". Darth Sidious had to shoo Film/Deadpool2016 out many times: the video is not about him, but about an actual Dead Pool.
515* ExpospeakGag: Used in ''Film/TopGun'' to derail the famous "need for speed" quote.
516* EurekaMoment: When Joy sees the mind workers send the memory of the gum jingle to headquarters through a recall tube, she decides to ask them to do the same with the core memories, saving her the trouble of carrying them all the way back to headquarters.
517[[/folder]]
518
519[[folder:F-J]]
520* FailureIsTheOnlyOption: Discussed in "Slender Games"
521* FauxAffablyEvil: Ultron shows up at the Villain pub, to brag with the other villains about the way he messed with the Avengers and built his FloatingContinent to destroy all life on Earth while they made pointless searches. [[spoiler:When Voldemort asks when the continent is going to fall down and kill everyone, Ultron answers, "Oh, [[BaitTheDog some time about now]]." Then again, [[HoistByHisOwnPetard he (possibly) should have gotten out of there himself]]]].
522* FinishHim: When [[Series/GameOfThrones Sansa punches Joffrey]], in a parody of Franchise/MortalKombat.
523* [[FirstGirlWins First Guy Wins]]: Katniss backs out of killing herself with Peeta to confess that she actually prefers "hottie" Gale.
524* FixFic: Whenever a movie ends with a [[BittersweetEnding Bittersweet]] or DownerEnding, expect the alternate endings to make things happier.
525* ForWantOfANail: Somehow Doc dropping vague hints to Marty and Jennifer about society in 2015 caused it to completely change.
526* FramingDevice: ''Infinity War'' created a context that they don't usually bother with, where Dr. Strange hopscotches through the future and comes up with... ''five'' versions where "we win".
527* FreezeFrameBonus: Just like in the film it's based on, ''[[WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie The LEGO HISHE]]'' contains several split-second cameos from classic LEGO characters in the background, including [[Toys/LEGOAdventurers Johnny Thunder]] and [[Toys/KnightsKingdom2 Rascus]].
528** In the ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier'' video, a [[spoiler:potted Groot]] can be seen passing by the window of the cafe for a couple seconds, presumably being carried by Rocket.
529* FridgeLogic: [[invoked]] They often show more common sense or realistic ways for the movies to have ended invoking this trope. Often filling logic gaps and things that could confuse the viewers.
530* FriendlyEnemy: Professor X and Magneto are perfectly happy with their tumultuous love-hate dynamic in "How ''X-Men: Apocalypse'' Should Have Ended."
531-->'''Batman''': So, you guys aren't going to disagree anymore?\
532'''Professor X''': Oh no, we will ride this merry-go-round to our graves!\
533'''Magneto''': Just before that, we'll time-travel and start it all over again!\
534''(Professor X and Magneto laugh merrily together)''
535* FullNameUltimatum: In the HISHE Dub for ''The Rise of Skywalker,'' Leia refers to Kylo as "Benjamin Chewbacca Solo" while trying to [[spoiler:communicate with him through the force.]]
536* FunnyBackgroundEvent:
537** Occurrences during Batman's chats with ComicBook/{{Wolverine}} and ComicBook/EmmaFrost in "How ''Film/XMenFirstClass'' Should Have Ended" include [[Film/TheIncredibleHulk2008 Hulk]] sitting with ComicBook/PowerGirl, ComicBook/TheFlash sharing a booth with [[WesternAnimation/HarveyBirdmanAttorneyAtLaw Harvey Birdman]], and Spider-Man waiting outside for an invite.
538** ''Film/ThePhantomMenace'' had George Lucas and several aliens and creatures from works other than ''Star Wars'' in the seats of the Galactic Senate.
539* GRatedDrug: Willy Wonka decided to install the infamous scary tunnel while on a sugar high.
540* GenreSavvy:
541** Tony Stark realizing that ''Film/IronMan3'' has the exact same premise as ''WesternAnimation/TheIncredibles''.
542** Two examples from ''Film/{{Scream 1996}}'':
543*** Randy explains the rules for surviving horror movies... except this time, they're along the lines of "don't date creepy guys, have parents who care, call for help, and attack the killer if they go down." [[spoiler:Turns into WrongGenreSavvy when Freddy Krueger shows up]].
544*** Tying in with the "have parents who care" rule, a mother tells her son he's not leaving the house due to a masked killer on the loose.
545* GeorgeLucasAlteredVersion: In anticipation of ''Film/RogueOne'', HISHE re-released their first ''Star Wars'' spoof, with "George Lucas updates", such as updated animation and about four minutes' worth of new scenes, before ending with a remade version of the original video, but with a twist: instead of the Death Star blowing first Yavin and then the rebel base behind in rapid succession, [[spoiler:the Death Star makes a minor lightspeed jump to simply place itself beyond the planet, and in direct sight of the rebel base]].
546* GhostReunionEnding: Parodied in "How ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'' Should Have Ended". Several more people show up, including Qui-Gon Jin, Mace Windu, and [[CrossesTheLineTwice all the young padawans that Anakin had murdered]].
547* GilliganCut: From [[Franchise/StarWars Darth Vader]] anticipating how [[ExactWords excited]] his long-lost son is going to be when they meet, to Luke Skywalker's BigNo.
548* GladIThoughtOfIt: Occurs in the ''No-Way Home'' episode.
549-->'''Curt Connors/The Lizard:''' I've got an idea, why don't we just live here.
550-->'''Max Dillon/Electro:''' Shut up Connors, no one cares what you think.
551-->'''Norman Osborn/Green Goblin:''' I have a better idea, how about we all just live here.
552-->'''Max Dillon/Electro:''' Yeah I like the sound of that.
553* GoKartingWithBowser: Megatron and Optimus Prime play Battleships together while discussing it being made into a film.
554** [[VideoGame/TheElderScrollsVSkyrim The Dragonborn and Alduin]] end up hanging out together as buddies after they realize they're kindred spirits.
555* GonnaNeedMoreX: In ''Super Cafe'': "Bros Before Marios", Batman says "We're gonna need a bigger booth." when the whole Avengers team shows up.
556* GoshDangItToHeck: ''Pulp Fiction'' includes one of the many lines containing the f-word, and turns it into gibberish.
557* GreenEyedMonster: Starting with the ''Wonder Woman'' episode, it's become something of a running gag that Batman and Superman's criticisms of other superhero movies is a bit of projection on their part due to the poor reception that their recent movies had received. It goes FromBadToWorse when in real life, Creator/BenAffleck and Creator/HenryCavill both confirmed they would be stepping down from their respective roles.
558* GroinAttack:
559** The easy way to defeat [[Film/TheTexasChainsawMassacre2003 chainsaw guys from Texas]].
560** James Bond gets repeatedly beaten as he asks viewers to subscribe.
561** How Jane determines Loki is still alive in the ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld'' video.
562** Sansa kicks Joeffrey in the balls and shoves him into the moat full of sharpened stakes in ''Game of Thrones Season 1''.
563* GrowsOnTrees: "Best Picture Summary 2020" has the lead cast of ''Endgame'' comparing themselves to movies that did get the nom for Best Picture... with a recurring emphasis throughout on, in point of fact, the large piles of money they ''did'' make, down to what appears to be a money tree in the background.
564* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: Pretty much what the ''Franchise/AssassinsCreed'' parody boils down to.
565* HaHaHaNo: Superman's reaction to Mario insisting that he's a superhero too.
566* HandWave: From the ''Iron Man 3'' video:
567-->'''Tony Stark:''' You know what bugs me?\
568'''Batman:''' What?\
569'''Tony Stark:''' [[Film/TheDarkKnightRises How you got back to Gotham City after climbing out of that prison on the other side of the planet.]] Why don't you explain that?\
570'''Batman:''' Why do so many people have a problem with this? I said, ''it's because... I'm Batma--''\
571'''Superman:''' [[CatchphraseInterruptus Can we get back to the story, please?]]
572** Batman can shrink, because he's Batman.
573* HappilyEverAfter: In ''How Revenge of the Sith Should Have Ended'', Anakin finds out that Palpatine is Darth Sidious, and when he tries to influence him into joining him, Anakin decides to go make a hologram call to Mace Windu and the other Jedi about this info, and to help him out since Palpatine is trying to get Anakin to turn evil. Mace and his Jedi Companions then manage to curbstomp Palpatine, unlike in the movie, and they even take down [[MemeticMutation Darth Jar Jar Binks]], thus foiling the Sith's evil plans, Order 66 never happens, the Jedi Order is intact, Anakin and Padmé manage to have Luke and Leia without Padmé dying, and they go on to live happily ever after.
574* HarsherInHindsight: In-universe. As Six notices in the ''VideoGame/HaloReach'' short, one way to make an introduction ''really'' awkward is if every comment you make only keeps highlighting each character's eventual death.
575* HatedByAll: [[Characters/MCUTheHighEvolutionary The High Evolutionary]] is hated even by the members of the ''Villain Pub''.
576-->'''Voldemort:''' [[EveryoneHasStandards I mean, I hate children, but you're kind of the worst.]]
577* HeelFaceDoorSlam: Harry and Marv at the end ''Home Alone Starring E.T.'' When they find the titular character boarding his spaceship to leave for his home planet, they're genuinely touched by him healing their wounds, which inspires them to give up their criminal careers...only to get to get burnt by the ship's flames as it ascends and arrested shortly afterwards.
578* HeroicComedicSociopath: Kratos amusingly decides to kill every last god he can find. But not even he can kill [[spoiler:Morgan Freeman.]]
579* HeroicSacrifice: [[Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger Captain America]] is determined to invoke this, even though there are other and better options available to him.
580* HeroInsurance: Superman laments that he doesn't have this, but Batman does.
581-->'''Batman:''' I'm ''Rich'' Batman!
582* HilariousOuttakes: "A Look Back at ''Film/ItsAWonderfulLife''"
583* HitlersTimeTravelExemptionAct: The ''Harry Potter'' one has an aversion, where Snape decides to solve everyone's problems by using the Time Turner to go back in time and kill Tom Riddle as a child. But given each turn of the device only taking you back an hour, Snape has to turn the device two hundred thousand times. Which takes him hours to do.
584* HollywoodBoardGames: "Transformers Play Battleship" has Optimus Prime and Megatron engage in, well, a ''TabletopGame/{{Battleship}}'' game while discussing how is it even possible to produce a [[Film/{{Battleship}} movie]] from a BoardGame. At first, they are just playing like normal people -- squinting their eyes at the tiny (for them) board while trying to divine what square to attack next and dejectedly sighing when they miss or get hit. Megatron, however, gets quickly derailed into a heated rant about the movie, which is lampshaded when he forgets whose turn is (or maybe he's trying to cheat) and when he mocks Optimus for being competitive. Optimus tries to get them back on track but eventually gets fed up and declares that GoKartingWithBowser was a terrible idea.
585* HomageDerailment: The very nature of the series, making fun of and parodying movie endings, lends very well to this form of subversion.
586** ''The Wizard of Oz'': The Wicked Witch is suddenly and unceremoniously killed almost right at the start of the film during her [[AndYourLittleDogToo famous line delivery]] to Dorothy.
587--->'''Witch:''' "I'll get you, my pretty, [[KilledMidSentence and your little dog t-!]]"
588--->([[BoomHeadshot Gets shot in the head]])
589--->'''Town Soldier:''' "Woah, you just killed her! How is it so?!"
590** ''Indiana Jones: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull:'' One of the first action sequences from the film, where Indy survives a nuclear test launch by hiding in a fridge, gets completely subverted where he comes out of the fridge burnt and horrifically mangled. BlackComedy at its finest.
591--->"I think I broke every bone in my BODY!!!"
592* HurlItIntoTheSun: In the ''Batman v Superman'' video, the military decide that Superman clearly has Doomsday under control and there's no need to launch a nuke at them when they're already in orbit.
593-->'''Superman:''' ''[punching Doomsday]'' Aaaand... into the Sun!
594* HypocriticalHumor:
595** Megatron jokingly asks if the aliens in ''Film/{{Battleship}}'' look like the pegs from [[TabletopGame/{{Battleship}} the game]], and proceeds to rant about how some movies completely alter iconic designs. To highlight Megatron's hypocrisy, this video portrays him with the same design from the live-action ''Film/{{Transformers|FilmSeries}}'' movies, and Optimus Prime as his G1 incarnation (per the events of "How ''Film/TransformersRevengeOfTheFallen'' Should Have Ended").
596** Batman and Superman always point out the various coincidences, luck or plotholes in most Superhero movies. But when it is pointed the same thing is happening in their movies, both of them give very lame excuses from "No it wasn't." to "It's only ok if I do it".
597* IChooseToStay: Thor decides to stay on Midgard with Jane Foster instead of return to Asgard and fight Loki.
598* IKnowYouKnowIKnow: During the ending of ''Film/SherlockHolmesAGameOfShadows'', Holmes and Moriarty counter each others' preparations as they fall from Reichenbach Falls. Unfortunately, they did not account for the rocks at the bottom.
599* ILoveTheSmellOfXInTheMorning: Quaritch in ''Avatar'' saying he loves the smell of CGI in the morning.
600* ImAManICantHelpIt: HISHE's interpretation of Arthur, in ''Film/{{Inception}}''.
601* ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Naturally parodied in the ''Film/ReturnOfTheJedi'' episode.
602-->'''Stormtrooper:''' ''[crying]'' Why are we so bad at shooting things?
603* INeedToGoIronMyDog: The most appropriate reaction to your bodyguard's rant about how it's right to kill people like animals ''ever''.
604* InferredHolocaust: In-universe, their take on the end of ''Avatar''.
605-->'''Selfridge:''' I say we [[Film/{{Aliens}} nuke the site from orbit, it's the only way to be sure]]...
606* InNameOnly:
607** Lampshaded at the end of ''Dead Man's Chest'', when Ragetti exclaims, "This ain't anything like the ride at [[Ride/DisneyThemeParks Disney World]]!"
608** Megatron has this opinion about ''Battleship''.
609* InstantSedation: Zigzagged. In ''The Dark Knight Rises'', when Bane first confronts Batman, Batman attempts to subdue him with a sleeping dart. Bane smugly comments that Batman will need to do better then that. Cue Batman shooting nineteen more darts.
610-->'''Bane:''' Ugh... Okay, that could do it. (collapses)
611* InternalDeconstruction: Occasionally they deconstruct their own premise by pointing out that StatingTheSimpleSolution would often have horrible consequences in the long run.
612** In their video for ''Inside Out'', they use the method the brain workers used to send the Triple Dent Gum commercial memory to headquarters to send the core memories back, stabilize the islands of personality, and simply take the train of thought back to headquarters without any more islands collapsing and interfering, and also without [[spoiler:Bing-Bong dying]]. Unfortunately, this also means that Joy never learns her lesson about why repressing Sadness is bad, Bing-Bong is brought back to HQ and appears to Riley again, traumatizing her and shattering her psyche, and she grows up to be a 31-year-old womanchild who still sees her imaginary friend and [[BasementDweller still lives with her parents]].
613** Their video for ''Film/TheWizardOfOz'' shows how WhyDontYouJustShootHim being applied to everything isn't as fun as one might think. By simply shooting the Wicked Witch dead, Dorothy no longer has the impetus to go off to see the Wizard or learn the Aesop of "there's no place like home." Without this valuable journey and personal growth, Dorothy is unceremoniously sent back to Kansas. Her companions are also left in the dust with no way to achieve their respective dreams. The Wizard humorously pointing out that he never gave them what they wanted to begin with also serves as this: pointing out details like that when the characters clearly found closure and satisfying resolution to their arcs only ends up invalidating the emotional journey they had gone through.
614* InternalHomage: In the HISHE spoof of ''X-Men: First Class'', a female doctor at a hospital exclaims, "Oh Lord, the devil's dropping off people in the E.R.!" when she sees Azazel with Xavier. For ''X-Men: Apocalypse'', the same doctor yells, "Oh Lord, the devil has returned!" when Nightcrawler appears with Jean Grey. Moreover, the mutant who is hospitalized in both episodes is a telepath.
615* InterpretativeCharacter: As of "How ''Film/TheAmazingSpiderMan'' Should Have Ended", TWO Spider-Men exist within the web series. Tobey Maguire's Spider-Man isn't happy about Creator/AndrewGarfield's Spider-Man being able to enter the Super Cafe instead of him.
616* ItCanThink:
617** Parodied and taken to extremes in "How ''Film/JurassicPark'' Should Have Ended". The Velociraptor figures out how to speak, finds a weapons closet, sends an email to the protagonists, and tries to attack them with guns.
618** It's also carried over into "How ''Film/JurassicWorld'' Should Have Ended", where one of the raptors starts shooting at the mercenaries after the I-Rex is killed.
619--->'''Raptor:''' We're free, suckers!!!
620* ItsAllAboutMe:
621** Batman. Because he's Batman!!
622** Superman and Batman would often interrupt the discussions about the new films to poke each other about the ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'' film. Because Batman is a monster, and needs to be stopped. Deadpool had to interrupt them: they were supposed to be talking about his dead girlfriend.
623* TheJailbaitWait: In ''WesternAnimation/TheLittleMermaid1989,'' as Prince Eric (18) finds out Ariel is 16 as they are about to get married, [[RunawayBride he runs away]] exclaiming "Let's talk again in two years!!" as he [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere jumps off the ship]] the wedding is taking place on.
624* JumpedAtTheCall: [[spoiler:Extremis-powered Pepper Potts]] accepts an offer from ComicBook/NickFury to become the newest Avenger.
625* JustEatGilligan: Has its [[JustEatGilligan/HowItShouldHaveEnded own page]].
626[[/folder]]
627
628[[folder:K-O]]
629* KarmaHoudini: Zigzagged with Loki, who failed to steal Odin's throne when his FakingTheDead gambit was foiled by Jane. He manages to escape from imprisonment only to spend his time ruminating and sulking about his failure in the Villains Pub.
630* KickingMyOwnButt: Palpatine is forced to invoke the WoundedGazelleGambit himself after Anakin straight-up calls Windu from the Chancellor's office.
631-->'''Palpatine:''' Help me, Anakin! The Jedi are taking over!
632-->'''Anakin:''' Why are you shocking yourself?
633* KickTheDog: Superman and Batman love to screw with Spider-Man. When he asks if he can come in the Cafe, they point out he could have at ''any'' time, it's a ''public'' place.
634-->'''Spider-Man:''' I've been hanging around out here for two years!\
635'''Superman:''' Yeah we know!\
636'''Batman:''' It's been ''hilarious''!
637* KidAppealCharacter: Characters originally portrayed by Ty Simpkins, such as Harley from ''Iron Man 3'' and Gray from ''Jurassic World'', wear a shirt with "Target Demographic" written on it.
638* KillSteal: In ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'', when Superman is about pull off his HeroicSacrifice, Batman grabs the spear instead and destroys Doomsday.
639* LeapAndFire: In ''Harry Potter'', Neville decapitates Nagini while flying sideways through the air and yelling, "I'm awesoooooome!"
640* LampshadeHanging:
641** Many shorts call out the numerous IdiotBall moments where stupid mistakes have been made in a work by the characters when they could have done something competent. One case is the scene in ''Film/TransformersRevengeOfTheFallen'' where Optimus Prime fights the Decepticons without backup.
642** In the ''Super Cafe'' segments, the "Because I'm Batman" RunningGag has pretty much become a OncePerEpisode thing. As if they anticipated the same reaction from their viewers, ''HISHE'' has Superman become increasingly annoyed by this as time goes on.
643* LaserGuidedKarma: [[LampshadeHanging Lampshaded]] by Wikus after Christopher repays his earlier abuse by clobbering him and stealing the MiniMecha in "How ''Film/District9'' Should Have Ended".
644-->'''Wikus:''' Curse the taste of my own medicine!
645* LateArrivalSpoiler: The premise of the videos is to make fun about the major plot points of the films, so it is basically a given.
646* LeeroyJenkins:
647** Gipsy Danger from Film/PacificRim does this in "How Godzilla Should Have Ended." [[spoiler:It doesn't end well.]]
648** The original Leeroy Jenkins moment is referenced in ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice'' when [[spoiler:Batman goes after Doomsday in Superman's place, grabbing the spear, saying "All right chumps, let's do this" and shouting [[LargeHam "BECAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUSSSEEEE IIIIIIIII'MMMMMM BATMANNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!"]] as he charges in for the kill. He succeeds, and lives to brag about it in the Super Cafe much to Superman's annoyance. Because he's Batman.]]
649* LensFlare: Parodied in ''Film/StarTrek2009''.
650-->'''Kirk:''' Computer, I want you to shut down all the lens flare generators.\
651'''Spock:''' Fascinating, I was unaware that we had that.\
652'''Kirk:''' It's nice, right? I mean, who designs a starship where lights shine right in your eye from virtually every angle!
653* LogicalWeakness: In ''Film/IronMan1'', the behemoth, bellowing Iron Monger's "few modifications of my own" mean that when it's actually dug out and put into practice, the whole thing barely gets a foot or two up.
654* LogoJoke: The ''Force Awakens'' HISHE inserts a "Hidden WesternAnimation/{{Mickey| Mouse}}" with the Death Star/Death Star II/Starkiller Base holograms forming the famous mouse silhouette.
655** There is also the Creator/MarvelStudios logo parody that is done with every single ''Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse'' film, starting with ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2''. The logo always gets ruined in some way, where an offscreen person shouts [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe "Aw, come on!"]].
656*** ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'': The logo just collapses by itself.
657*** ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'': ComicBook/SpiderMan accidentally swings into the logo, breaking it.
658*** ''Film/ThorRagnarok'': Mjolnir falls on the left of the logo, electrocuting it and causing it to fall diagonally, letter by letter.
659*** ''Film/{{Black Panther|2018}}'': The eponymous character jumps on the logo and redirects his suit's stored kinetic energy to it, blasting it apart.
660*** ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'': The logo disintegrates into dust, while the offscreen guy instead screams "[[DudeNotFunny Too Soon!]]".
661*** ''Film/AntManAndTheWasp'': Ant-Man becomes Giant-Man, smashing into the logo and sending pieces of it flying. He apologises as he shrinks back to miniature size.
662*** ''Film/AvengersEndgame'': A rat crawls on top of the logo, destroying it with every jump it takes. The offscreen guy then questions the odds of that creature appearing on the logo "right when the camera came by".
663*** ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'': The logo is revealed to be a hologram made by numerous E.D.I.T.H. drones, who end the illusion and scatter. The guy who complains about the logo destruction is absent, replaced with a parody of Music/WhitneyHouston's "I Will Always Love You".
664* LukeIAmYourFather: After Quicksilver informs Xavier that his mother might become upset if he goes to Paris without her permission, Erik reveals that he is Quicksilver's father, then gives him ''his'' permission.
665* MadeOfIron: Discussed in ''How Film/TheDarkKnightRises Should Have Ended'', in [[OnceAnEpisode the Super Café]].
666-->'''Superman''': You had your [[MythologyGag back broken]], your [[HeartbrokenBadass heart broken]], your [[ImpoverishedPatrician bank account broken]], you even got ''[[BackStab stabbed]]'', dude!\
667'''Batman''': [[BluntYes Yep.]]\
668''{{Beat}}''\
669'''Superman''': [[LampshadeHanging How are you still breathing right now?]] [[PreemptiveShutUp No, never mind]], [[RunningGag I already know what you're gonna s--]]\
670'''Batman''': ''[[CharacterCatchphrase Because I'm Batman!]]''\
671'''Superman''': *sigh* I walked right into that one.\
672'''Batman''': Yes, you did.
673* TheMainCharactersDoEverything: Parodied in ''Film/AttackOfTheClones'', when Obi-Wan is unsuccessfully trying to apprehend Jango Fett.
674-->'''Obi-Wan''': Could you guys just maybe send a larger ship?
675-->'''Mace Windu''': No! No, we cannot.
676-->'''Yoda''': Important Jedi business we have.
677-->'''Obi-Wan''': ALL of the Jedi are busy?
678-->'''Yoda''': Yes. Sit here on cushions, we must.
679-->'''Obi-Wan''': I'm really doing all of the work, aren't I?
680* MayflyDecemberRomance: Points out that without transforming Bella from ''Literature/{{Twilight}}'' into vampire, in 60 years or so Bella would be an old lady whilst Edward was still forever young.
681* MundaneSolution: James Bond sees no point in playing poker with Le Chiffre if he already lost all the money, especially after M says that keeping the prize money out of Le Chiffre's hands will put Bond's life (and testicles) in danger, and instead tells M to throw Le Chiffre into custody.
682--> '''M:''' You see how ''boring'' that was, James?!
683* {{Narm}}:
684** Invoked [[PlayedForLaughs intentionally]] in ''WesternAnimation/{{Beowulf|2007}}''.

686** Superman reckons that the new stage-voice in ''Film/TheDarkKnight'' is like Batman gargling marbles.
687* NerdsSpeakKlingon: Subverted in the ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'' episode. Uhura insists on showing her intellect by speaking the outro in Klingon, but mangles the words. An actual Klingon (voiced by the narrator of ''WebVideo/HonestTrailers'') offers to take over... and speaks the outro in English.
688* NeverBringAKnifeToAGunFight: A random stortrooper calls Finn a traitor, Finn raises the lightsaber... and the stormtrooper guns him down. [[BigYes Yes!]]
689* NotTheFallThatKillsYou [[{{Squick}} Averted]] in ''How [[Film/TheBourneSeries The Bourne Identity]] Should Have Ended'', as Bourne ends up breaking many of his bones, and can't walk to get away.
690* MemeticBadass: InUniverse, we have [[Series/{{LOST}} Lapidus!]] Complete with theme music.
691* MindScrew: The sight of [[spoiler:Joy crying]] prompts Bing Bong to ask Joy, "Do you think you've got little emotions in ''your head'', too?" She gasps as a zoom into her head reveals such, then answers, "It's better if you just don't think about that!"
692* MundaneUtility: One of Superman's uses for his flight and X-ray vision is to watch exclusive trailers from Comic-Con.
693* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Frequently discussed.
694* NonIndicativeName:
695** LiteralMinded Drax accuses Batman of having one, since he's not a HalfHumanHybrid of a bat and a man.
696** Superman and Batman point out that the "Age of Ultron" only lasted a week, at most, much shorter than its title suggests.
697* NotHyperbole: When ''WesternAnimation/{{Aladdin}}'' tells Genie he feels like a fraud for pretending to be something he's not, Genie tells him its not a lie. Aladdin's wish wasn't just to 'look' like a prince, Genie retroactively changed reality so his master is, and always has been a real prince. He really did everything and has everything described he described him doing in 'Prince Ali'. He really does have [[FictionFiveHundred seventy-five golden camels]],[[SuperStrength the strength of ten men]] and an army of servants who love to serve him.
698* NotWearingPants: In ''Inception''.
699* NotWhereTheyThought: At the end of "How ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory3'' Should Have Ended", [[WesternAnimation/MonstersInc Sulley]] bursts into Andy's dorm room, startling him. Sulley then realizes he's in the wrong room, apologizes, and leaves.

704** "[[WesternAnimation/TheMarvelSuperHeroes When Captain America throws his mighty shield]], All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield, sooooo... Unless you're a plane! Or a bomb! Or some ice! Or a brain washed buddy! Or a Spider-Man! Or a Trope-based web page! Then you don't necessarily have to yield!
705-->'''Captain America:''' Please stop for the LOVE OF GOD!
706* OnlyInItForTheMoney: Apparently the reason Creator/GeorgeLucas felt less willing than Creator/StevenSpielberg to apologize for ''Indiana Jones 4''.

715* OverlyPolitePals: In ''Film/TopGun''.
716[[/folder]]
717
718[[folder:P-T]]
719* PervertRevengeMode: The ''HISHE'' version of ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'' sees Mystique go into this after the general she'd impersonate in the film proper says he thinks her true form is also sexy.
720* PetTheDog: While being arrested, [[Film/SpiderMan3 Flint Marko]] vainly attempts to argue that he's "not a bad person" and it's "okay for him to break the law" because he has "a daughter and she's sick."
721** [[Film/SpiderManHomecoming Adrian Toomes]] attempts to make [[CallBack a similar argument]] while being arrested for attempting to steal Chitauri technology.
722* PhraseCatcher: Chell becomes this when everyone else in the video tells her, "[[VideoGame/Portal2 You are a horrible person!]] Has anyone ever told you that?!" Even the video description refers to her as "a horrible person".
723* PieInTheFace: Tony Stark attended the birthday of Pierce's niece, who is not guilty for her uncle being a terrorist, and a birthday promise is a birthday promise! But she asked for Iron Man, not for a middle-aged geek she does not know. So, Tony took a piece of cake, and the girl used a "[[BorrowedCatchphrase Cake missile...]]".
724* PlotArmor:
725** Lampshaded about Lapidus in ''Lost''.
726---> "Lapidus! He survives explosions because he's the ''only'' pilot!"
727** In part one of ''Age of Ultron'', [[spoiler:Ultron has made his FloatingContinent fall down, killing all life on Earth. Except Superman, who is an indestructible alien after all, and... Batman. Superman is not even interested in hearing how in the world he can possibly still be alive. It's [[MangledCatchPhrase BECAUSE HE'S...]]]] [roll credits!]
728** Several episodes avert this by showing that several characters from different movies survives because of plot and it would show what happened in reality. Special mention goes to the 2012 episode, where [[spoiler:the protagonist and his family would actually be like any killed-in-the-disasters people if the events would happen in reality.]]
729* PokingDeadThingsWithAStick: In the ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'' episode, Peter Parker receives help from all the previous theatrical Spider-Men to defeat Quentin Beck. When Quentin Beck is down, Peter asks E.D.I.T.H. if he's real and E.D.I.T.H. says all the drones' illusion projectors have been deactivated. The other Spider-Men aren't too sure about that, so [[WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse Spider-Ham]] pokes Beck with a stick to confirm he's real and see if he's dead or not.
730* PoorCommunicationKills: In ''The Last Jedi'':
731-->'''Ackbar:''' Now: As my first act as Commander -- I wish to tell everyone the plan. We have a secret base, on a nearby planet, that we are trying to reach. So nobody freak out, or try to start a mutiny, or anything. ''We actually have a plan to survive.''
732* ThePowerOfFriendship:
733** Maverick and Iceman.
734--> Remaining [=MiGs=] are bugging out because of our teamwork and kindness.
735** After being convinced by [[Franchise/HowToTrainYourDragon Hiccup]], [[Film/TheNeverendingStory1984 Falcor]], [[Literature/ASongOfIceAndFire Daen]][[Series/GameOfThrones erys]] and [[{{Film/Dragonheart}} Draco]] that some dragons can in fact be friendly, the Dwarves attempt to befriend Smaug. [[spoiler:It doesn't work. Smaug was one of the most iconic evil dragons before all those draconic followers started playing around with the concept.]]
736* PragmaticVillainy:
737** In ''Franchise/MortalKombat'', Shang Tsung has a stated tournament rule about humanoids only when he sees Liu Kang's Fatality. If he starts letting every imaginable fighter in, he reasons, ''everyone'' dies and he doesn't get to rule Earthrealm.
738** In ''Film/TerminatorDarkFate'', the Rev-9 doesn't bother attacking while Sarah and Dani are trapped underwater and instead simply waits for them to drown.

741* PrettyLittleHeadshots:
742** When one of the soldiers kills the Wicked Witch.
743** When [[spoiler:Snape shoots Voldemort]] in ''Harry Potter''.
744* RealityIsUnrealistic:
745** In ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheFirstAvenger'', Armin Zola questions the Red Skull why they should label their bombs in English when they are German. The words written on the bombs were names of U.S. cities: New York, Chicago, etc. However, this is a goof: these names are written the same way in both English and German.
746** In ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', the beginning parodies the fact that the chanting from the movie's opening has no place at all in the rest of the movie. It is actually a traditional Sami chant, Sami being a group of indigenous people in Scandinavia - where the movie takes place. (Also, Kristoff was stated in ''Frozen'' to be Sami).
747* RealityWarpingIsNotAToy: Superman does not want to go back in time and save Gwen Stacy, as Spider-Man requests. He's trying not to do that anymore. But, eventually, he does it.
748* RedShirt:
749** Parodied in ''Film/StarTrek2009'', when Kirk orders all red shirts on board the Enterprise to be jettisoned to lighten the weight of the ship. Scotty takes time to put on a different shirt before fulfilling the order.
750** And again in ''VideoGame/HaloReach'', where after his big TemptingFate speech, Carter hands Six a red shirt with the ONI logo on it.
751* {{Retirony}}: In ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'' bonus scene, two of the [[spoiler:Chitauri]] discuss their imminent retirement, with one looking forward to spending more time with his wife and kids, and the other planning to follow his dream of opening a fitness center. [[spoiler:And then Tony nukes the mothership.]]
752* RhymesOnADime: The Munchkins.
753* RoboticReveal: While shouting "Freedom!" during his torture, [[Film/{{Braveheart}} William Wallace]] malfunctions, and reveals himself to be a robot. Then he proceeds to attack the English crowd with [[MythologyGag fireballs from his eyes and bolts of lightning from his arse]].
754-->'''Hamish:''' [[AssPull I didn't see that coming]].
755* RootingForTheEmpire: (''{{Invoked}}'') Superman and Batman met Ultron, who will go against the Avengers, and told him that [[FandomRivalry so are they]]. Ultron hugged them, and told them that they have a new friend. [[OhCrap Superman immediately regrets this]].
756* RosesAreRedVioletsAreBlue: Their version of Jimmy Stewart writes one.
757* RousseauWasRight: ApatheticCitizens? Not in HISHE's world, as a couple of good samaritans stop the kids who stole Arthur's sign from getting away, preventing the series of unfortunate events in ''Film/Joker2019'' from occurring at all.
758* RuleOfCool: Lampshaded in the ''Film/{{Tron}}'' rap, where they point out that Flynn could have just uninstalled the MCP... "But that's no fun to animate!"
759* RuleOfFunny: If the viewer dwells on it for too long, the series can seem inconsistent over whether or not rebooting a movie franchise creates another copy of its star. (eg, each incarnation of Superman, Batman, or Aquaman is usually the respective hero in different costumes, while rebooting Spider-Man, James Bond, and Deadpool resulted in them gaining duplicates.) The rationale over which reboot does what seems to depend mainly on whether or not the writers believe they can wring any humor from incorporating several incarnations of the character.
760* RunningGag:
761** Tony Stark's love of solving problems with Tank-missiles.
762** ''Everyone'' either already knows or doesn't care about Batman's secret identity. Speaking of which...
763--> [[CharacterCatchphrase "Because I'm BATMAN"]]
764** Batman tries to hit on beautiful heroines by saying, "Do you want to know my secret identity?", but he usually fails.
765** Darth Vader/Anakin ''loves'' his children, and will tell everyone about it whenever they come up.
766** The scientists in the ComicBook/SpiderMan movies (including ''Film/{{Venom|2018}}''), especially the [[OnlySaneMan "Here's a bright idea!" guy]]. They're smart enough to prevent each FreakLabAccident that creates foes of Spider-Man (Sandman and Electro), or any flaws that prevent the plan from running properly.
767*** Not to mention, as of ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'', preemptively thwarted villains wailing that [[FreudianExcuse having a daughter makes it okay for them to break the law]], or some other tenuous excuse, and that they're not a bad person.
768*** Spider-Man's unnecessary narration is also played at in several videos.
769** Every character played by Creator/SamuelLJackson will have a "Enough!" rant.
770** In all 3 ''Franchise/StarWars Prequel'' videos, [[TheScrappy Jar Jar]] ends up dying in different ways: two instances of being shot to death, and one time getting cut by a lightsaber.
771** Whenever Captain America appears, Superman and Batman (or somebody else) sings his embarrassing theme song. And every time something in a movie stops the shield, they add it to a list of things that "don't necessarily have to yield!"
772** In every ''HISHE Dubs'' video, one character comments on another character's plan by saying "That's dumb, you're dumb..."
773*** One character replies to another character's refusal by saying "Come on, pretty please.", after which the other one usually complies.
774*** More than one occasion, a character's action that leads to their ultimate or supposed demise is called out by another character that they're going to die or be dead because of that.
775** A few ''HISHE Dubs'' videos has a montage scene with a hilarious relevant song or an introduction scene where someone tells others to introduce themselves.
776** "One of us might have died". Said in [=HISHEs=] of movies that have character deaths in response to the question of what would have happened had they done things the way they did in the actual movie, usually by said killed-off character(s).
777** Ever since the ''Age of Ultron'' video, Captain America [[CurseCutShort preventing other characters from cursing]], usually while throwing his shield at them.
778** "I thought about (''doing what happened in the film''), but then I thought: 'Nah!' I will do this other, more reasonable thing instead."
779** In any MCU film where Wong appears, the HISHE version of the character will ''always'' shout "[[SayMyName Yes! Wong!]]" after magically preventing a crisis that could spell untold disaster for everyone.
780* SanitySlippage: Spider-Man got nuts after the death of Gwen Stacy in ''The Amazing Spider-Man 2''. So now Superman must go back in time and save her, or else Spider-Man will shoot Batman in the face!
781-->'''Batman:''' This is stupid...
782* SavageWolves: In ''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967'', Bagheera leaving baby Mowgli in a basket to be RaisedByWolves leads to said wolves eating said baby.
783* SayMyName: Two of the ''Villain Pub'' shorts end with Voldemort yelling Loki's name.
784* ScrewThisImOuttaHere:
785** Six in ''VideoGame/HaloReach.''
786** [[spoiler:Both Wolverine and Batman leave in disgust after Deadpool moons Superman and Batman in the video for ''Film/{{Logan}}''.]]
787* SelfDeprecation: In [[https://youtu.be/FsPn3-lBFlo How Spider-Man Into the Spider-Verse Should Have Ended]], which ends with the obligatory Super Cafe with Batman and Superman. Adding to the joke is the fact that the Super Cafe scene comprises the entire second half of the episode.
788-->'''Peter B.:''' They just sit here all the time and pass judgement on other people's work. It's kinda sad but it's all they've got, so just go along with it.
789* SetRightWhatOnceWentWrong: In ''Film/HarryPotter'', Snape uses Hermione's Time-Turner (which Harry convinced her to keep) to [[spoiler:kill Tom Riddle when Dumbledore's talking to him in the orphanage]].
790* ShaggyDogStory: The first video on ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' ends with Thor successfully chopping off Thanos' arm and claiming the Infinity Gauntlet himself. Despite smugly declaring himself the ruler of Earth, the last few minutes sees him resurrect Gamora and all of the heroes gathered together in the Super Cafe (alongside Batman and Superman) and congratulating each other over a job well done and trading a lot of genuinely friendly and upbeat conversations. Then [[Film/ThorRagnarok Korg]] starts the jukebox and Thor, caught up in the song, [[BadassFingersnap snaps his fingers]]...''with the hand wearing the Infinity Gauntlet,'' cue MassOhCrap, followed by all the villains in the Villain Pub, with the exception of [[spoiler:Loki]] dissolving into dust, along with presumably everyone else in the universe.
791* SheatheYourSword: How the characters survive the ''Film/{{Predator}}''. [[spoiler:Until TheStinger.]]
792-->'''Dutch:''' [[spoiler:You idiots! There are weapons on the choppaaa!]]
793* ShownTheirWork: Their ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie'' epilogue is almost indistinguishable from the film (save Batman not being voiced by Will Arnett).
794* ShoutOut: [[ShoutOut/HowItShouldHaveEnded Have its own page]]
795* ShortLivedAerialEscape: See SheatheYourSword.
796* ShutUpHannibal:
797** In ''Film/XMenFirstClass'', Xavier gets fed up with Magneto's attempts to perform his MotiveRant, freezes everyone (except for Magneto, who asks Xavier what's going on) and mind-controls Azazel to teleport him to a hospital.
798-->'''Magneto:''' Charles? Wh-what's going on? What are you doing?\
799'''Xavier/Azazel:''' I've been ''shot'', you selfish a-hole.\
800''[Azazel teleports Xavier]''\
801'''Magneto:''' [[SarcasmMode Well, great]]. Now how are we supposed to get home?
802** Mace Windu to [[spoiler:Darth Jar Jar]] in ''Revenge of the Sith''.
803-->'''Mace Windu:''' "Enough is enough! [[Film/SnakesOnAPlane I've had it with these nerf-herding Sith Lords, in this nerf-herding Senate!]]"
804* SincerityMode: During the ''Into the Spider-Verse'' Cafe segment, Batman has a breakdown from his usual CausticCritic shtick and concedes that he considers the film to be the GOAT of Superhero films.
805* SignedUpForTheDental: Scott Lang has served his sentence. Pym is waiting for him: he can offer him a job, lots of money, and training by his hot daughter. And Luis? He has waffles in his apartment, and a truck with a sweet horn that plays "la cucaracha".
806* SkewedPriorities: Ultron has taken control of the internet, and can do ''anything''... but what enrage Thor and Banner is that he turns the TV cable off.
807* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVersusCynicism: Depending on the movie. If the movie had a happy ending, it will be [[HappyEndingOverride cruelly subverted]], whereas if the movie had a DownerEnding, the characters will take steps that result in a SurprisinglyHappyEnding. [[RuleOfFunny That's the joke]].
808* SmugSuper:
809** Superman is ''very'' fond of lording all his superpowers -- and the awesome things they enable him to do -- over Batman.
810** Iron Man in spades; his reply to Batman telling him he shouldn't have revealed his identity:
811--->'''Tony Stark:''' Why not? Cause I did... and I'm awesome! So... in your face!
812** Batman gets a chance to have his own back in ''Film/TheDarkKnight'':
813--->'''Superman:''' But dude, you know what I would've done?\
814'''Batman:''' Oh, I don't know, probably just--\
815'''Superman & Batman:''' ''[simultaneously]'' ''Fly really fast, saving everyone from the bullets and explosions!''\
816'''Superman:''' Exactly!\
817'''Batman:''' Yeah, well, I can't do those things. [[ShutUpHannibal Because I'm not a super-bulletproof alien from another planet that can defy gravity]]. But you know what I ''can'' do?\
818'''Superman:''' What's that?\
819'''Batman:''' ''Make an incredibly awesome movie!'' ...You know why?\
820'''Superman:''' ''[resigned]'' Because you're Bat--\
821'''Batman:''' '''[[Quotes/{{Batman}} Because I'm Batman]]'''!
822** Batman calls Superman out on his twitter feed consisting of him repeatedly posting;
823--->'''Batman:''' "Just saved the day. Just saved the day. Just got back from saving the day. Here I go to save the day. Just saved the day ''twice''. I'm saving the day. Just saved the day tagged with Wonder Woman. Just saved the day" ''[phone beeps]'' And you just posted something new, what does it say, ah, "Just saved the day".\
824'''Superman:''' Yeah I just rescued these people while you were reading that.
825** Superman counters that Batman isn't much better, as he keeps posting "''I'm Batman!''" on twitter.
826** The Avengers are collectively smug to the both of them about the massive success of ''The Avengers''.
827--->'''Thor:''' We can't hear you through all of this box office money!
828* SomethingWeForgot: In the climax of [[Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice their big fight]], Superman mentions Martha, and Lois clarifies that's his mom. Touched by the similarity with the name of his own mother, Martha Wayne, Batman gives up his murder plot and invites Superman to hang out in a sweet cafe that he knows nearby. But before they start to TalkAboutTheWeather, Superman reminds him that they still have to rescue Martha from Luthor.
829* SophisticatedAsHell: Characters with cultured and/or archaic speech patterns in the original films tend to use a lot more slang and colloquialisms in the videos. For instance, Thor's response to Heimdall peeping on Jane bathing is, "Stop creepin' on my lady-friend, dude!"
830* SoundEffectBleep: Any on-screen use of expletives has the characters' (not already covered in a mask like Deadpool) mouthing of them covered with a "cuss" bar that for HISHE both prevents demonetization of its videos and ensures some child-accessibility for its content.
831* SparedByTheAdaptation: Some of the Alternate Endings, when they are LighterAndSofter than their real counterparts.
832** [[spoiler:Stoick the Vast]] in ''How to Train Your Dragon 2''.
833** [[spoiler:Mace Windu, Padmé Amidala and all the Jedi Order that are not Obi-Wan and Yoda]] in ''Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith''.
834** [[spoiler:Han Solo]] in ''The Force Awakens''.
835** [[spoiler:Severus Snape]] in ''Harry Potter''. He then [[spoiler:goes back in time in order to kill Voldemort and retroactively saves everyone]].
836** [[spoiler:Thorin]] in ''The Battle of the Five Armies''.
837** [[spoiler:Boromir]], and probably [[spoiler:everyone who dies in the war against Sauron]], in ''Lord of the Rings''.
838** [[spoiler:Poppa Henry]] in ''The Good Dinosaur''.
839* SpecialEditionTitle: Some videos begin with the intro made-over to resemble the VanityPlate of the studio that produced the spoofed movie.
840* SpecialGuest:
841** Creator/StanLee, in "How ''The Amazing Spider-Man Should Have Ended''.
842** Jon Bailey, the ''WebVideo/HonestTrailers'' narrator, appeared in the episodes for ''Film/StarTrekIntoDarkness'' (as a Klingon), ''Film/JurassicWorld'' (as the Indominus Rex), ''Film/AntMan1'' (as Scott Lang/Ant-Man II), ''WesternAnimation/TheGoodDinosaur'' (as [[spoiler:Big Henry]]), ''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967'' (as Baloo, Shere Khan, Colonel Haiti, Kaa, and [[spoiler:Winnie the Pooh]]), and ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'' (as Scott Lang/Ant-Man II and T'Challa/Black Panther).
843--->'''I-Rex:''' Aw nuts!
844* SpitTake: At the beginning of their spoof of ''The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey'', Bilbo briefly chokes on his pipe after Gandalf invites him on an adventure filled with "bickering trolls, stone giants, and Goblin kings with ''scrotum beards''".
845* SpotlightStealingSquad:
846** Malekith accuses Loki of this.
847** Batman and Superman.
848* StatingTheSimpleSolution: Their bread and butter for some of their episodes. This series has characters having logic equivalent to a person who is aware of something easier and does it.
849** In ''Lord of the Rings'', instead of doing all the journey to Mordor, the Fellowship distracts Sauron while Frodo drops the ring inside the volcano while flying with an eagle. They even lampshade this.
850--->'''Legolas:''' That was incredibly easy.\
851'''Gimli:''' Yeah, it was.\
852'''Frodo:''' Can you imagine what it would be like if we walked the entire way?\
853'''Boromir:''' Yeah, one of us would've died.
854** In ''Film/ManOfSteel'', rather than turning himself to Zod, Superman went to Jor-El's hologram for advice on how to deal with Zod. In which Superman throws his spaceship at Zod's ship, sending Zod and his crew to the Phantom Zone.
855** Captain America and Falcon suggest asking the Avengers to help take down HYDRA's helicarriers, but Nick Fury insists on not letting them get involved. Black Widow then asks if her disguise-o-mesh, which can alter a person's appearance, can prove useful. Cut to Cap disguising as Alexander Pierce, and ordering for the dismantling of the helicarriers, as well as the turning-in of undercover HYDRA agents.
856** ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'' has Xavier and Erik invite Quicksilver to accompany them to Paris, so he could help them get Mystique. On Batman's suggestion, Xavier later decides to send Logan even further into the past, to the very first time Erik and Charles met him, so he could explain everything that's going to happen.
857** In ''Film/AntMan1'', Hank Pym has a complex plan: have Luis make contact with Scott Lang when he goes out of prison, wait for him to fail to get a job, trick him into stealing and trying the ant-man suit, rescue him from prison when he's sent a second time... but Hope told him that it was pointless, and that he should simply show up when Lang goes out of prison, and recruit him right there.
858* StealthPun: Not quite stealth, but definitely a bit sneaky. In the ''Film/StarTrek2009'' deleted scene, Scotty is spacing the {{Red Shirt}}s and spare parts to lighten the ship. He's even pushing an antique cannon into the airlock.
859-->'''Scotty:''' Everything's got to go.\
860'''Red Shirt:''' Yeah, but... even the cannon?\
861'''Scotty:''' Especially the [[{{Canon}} cannon]].
862* TheStinger: Every episode since "How ''[[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanDeadMansChest Dead Man's Chest]]'' Should Have Ended" has either one or two.
863* StolenMacGuffinReveal: In the ''Film/SherlockHolmesAGameOfShadows'' parody, Holmes and Moriarty try to one up each other in this regard with an air tank and life vest, respectively.
864* StoryBreakerPower: Character powers that could ease the movies' plot usually end up being used in HISHE.
865* StupidSacrifice:
866** Captain America's HeroicSacrifice is parodied to be this. Why couldn't Cap turn the plane around, circle for a while, find warmer water to crash land into, fly one of the bomb-planes as an escape, or try to find some other way to avoid crashing into freezing arctic water? The film proper never explains, and HISHE has a ''field day'' with it.
867** Bond unsuccessfully pleads with Vesper Lynd not to drown herself.
868--->'''Bond:''' Why are you doing this?\
869'''Vesper:''' I love you, James! Now I must kill myself for no reason! ''[drowns]''\
870'''Bond:''' But I killed all the bad guys!
871* SubvertedCatchphrase: The ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'' HISHE has Scarlet Witch use her powers to make Batman perform one.
872-->'''Batman:''' Girl, your accent is so bad, you make me want to be good. Oh wait! I already am! Because I'm... ''[Scarlet Witch {{mind rape}}s him]'' [[spoiler:AFRAID OF BATS!]]
873** Batman also subverts his catchphrase in the ''Film/SpiderManFarFromHome'' HISHE, [[spoiler:{{Foreshadowing}} that he's actually Talos in disguise. When Talos drops the disguise, the real Batman admonishes him for not saying his catchphrase.]]
874--->'''Batman[[spoiler:/Talos]]:''' (''on telling ladies his secret identity'') Of course I do! Do you know why? Because I'm an adult, and I can handle it.
875** While he initially says it in the ''The Next Knight Rises'' sketch, based on ''Film/TheBatman2022'' test footage, he passes on the opportunity when Superman asks [[EpilepticTrees if the Bat-Symbol on his new costume is supposed to be made out of the gun that killed his parents]].
876--->'''Batman:''' How would I even retrieve that weapon, much less know it's the actual one?\
877'''Superman:''' Are you trying to get me to say because you're Batman?\
878'''Batman:''' [[TakeThat No, I genuinely think that turning the gun that killed my parents into a Bat-Symbol is weird!]] So I wanna know why ''you're'' asking me if that's what it is!
879* SuddenlySpeaking: In the ''Portal'' video, [[spoiler:the Companion Cube actually talks, and seems none too happy about Chell throwing it in an incinerator, then trying to leave it behind in the rubble. The Companion Cube actually seems like the only "character" in the video with any spoken lines.]]
880* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham:
881** For the ''Film/CaptainAmericaTheWinterSoldier'' video, Fury refuses to call in Film/{{The Avengers|2012}} for help for no discernible reason.
882** Usually averted, as the videos bring in other heroes that live in that world - for instance, ''Film/TheSuicideSquad'' has Superman showing up to toss Starro into space.
883* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Really, almost EVERY short applies reality to the work and see how much the ending should logically fall apart. The list includes:
884** In ''Film/WillyWonkaAndTheChocolateFactory'', the tour immediately ends after the scary tunnel, as the adults declare they're going home before things get even worse. Mr. Beauregarde even says Wonka will be hearing from his lawyer.
885** In ''Film/TwoThousandTwelve'', they have John Cusack's character explain the whole plot as his escape plan, showing how many coincidences would be needed to get them that far, let alone a lack of reality. [[spoiler:In the end, they just drowned without even making it to the airport.]]
886** In one of their "Lego Movie" segments, it is demonstrated that EasilyForgiven doesn't really come into play for President Business, when he's convinced by Emmet to stop his evil plans. After all, it still doesn't negate the fact that he ruined a lot of people's lives in the process and is therefore thrown into prison by a lot of angry people for what he did.
887** In ''Film/TopGun'', Maverick punching Iceman for causing the death of [[ForgottenFallenFriend his best friend]], earlier in the movie.
888** In the ''Assassin's Creed'' parody, they lampshade the sheer implausibility of surviving a "Leap of Faith".
889** Special mention goes to "How [[VideoGame/ModernWarfare Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2]] Should Have Ended" concerning the "[[spoiler:No Russian]]" mission.
890** In ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'', Batman succumbs to his stab wound and is unable to save the day.
891** In ''Film/JurassicWorld'' in its entirety. Some examples include:
892*** You can't get a 20+ year-old Jeep back into running usable condition just by changing the battery [[spoiler:lampshaded by the Indominus Rex before it eats Zach and Gray.]]
893*** Wild animals of behavior and size similar to those of the Raptors are really tough to train and control, especially when out of their cages. Sure enough, so are the Raptors in the HISHE.
894*** High heels are impractical for running away [[spoiler:hence the reason why the T-Rex ate Claire.]]
895*** Building a moat to stop the Indominus Rex from escaping, one of the zookeeper even points out zoos have been doing this for ages.
896** In ''WesternAnimation/TheGoodDinosaur'', it is revealed that Poppa Henry [[SparedByTheAdaptation survived the flood]] because, logically, if Arlo, an 11-year-old with no experience in the wild on his own, can survive being washed down the river in a flash flood, so should his father.
897** In ''Film/CaptainAmericaCivilWar'', [[spoiler:Rhodes[=/=]War Machine dies from falling 15,000 feet in the air in a metal suit going 400 mph, rather than incapacitating him to the point that he needs a robotic walker to walk.]]
898** In ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'', Rocket talking about stealing the Sovereign's batteries inside their throne room gets him immediately caught and executed.
899** In the "Special Edition" of ''Film/ANewHope'', Cornelius bragging about having the death sentence in twelve systems immediately gets him and Ponda Baba arrested by Greedo, who reasons that they must be worth a lot of money.
900** In ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'', when the Vulture [[MuggingTheMonster threatens Peter with a gun]] in their civilian identities, [[SmugSuper Peter]] just [[SuperStrength paralyzes his arm]] and [[SuperReflexes punches him]] in the throat without any trouble before he even realizes what's happening.
901** HISHE's take on the butler's scene from ''Film/SpiderMan3'' gets turned on its head when Harry angrily fires the butler for not telling him the truth about his father's death. [[PunctuatedForEmphasis For. YEARS!]] Especially since the butler finally decided to tell Harry AFTER he became the new Goblin and became disfigured as a result.
902*** [[OnlySaneMan A scientist as the lab earlier in the film tells the idiots to make sure the additional weight IS in fact a bird before they "mutate the crap out of something just because you were too lazy to safely run this nighttime sand mutation experiment."]] Cue Sandman being discovered in the sand and promptly arrested.
903** In ''WesternAnimation/SpiderManIntoTheSpiderVerse'', Miles and the gang saves [[spoiler:Aaron]] from being killed by Kingpin. However, Spider-Ham still informs [[spoiler:Aaron]] that he's going to prison for being an accomplice of the Kingpin.
904** In ''Film/TheBatman2022'', Bruce Wayne took a bomb in the face, but he manage to walk-out of it just fine. This show, however, showcases what would realistically happen in that scenario with Bruce Wayne showcasing visible bomb marks on his face.
905* SynchroVox: Used in ''Twilight: Breaking Dawn, Part 2'' to make fun of the CGI on baby Renessmee's face.
906* TakeThat: Has [[TakeThat/HowItShouldHaveEnded its own page]].
907* TalkingIsAFreeAction: In ''Twilight'', Edward spends so long debating over trying to keep Bella from becoming a vampire that she transforms before he actually do anything.
908* TattooedCrook: Joker after changing his look for the new ''Film/SuicideSquad2016'' movie.
909* TemptingFate:
910** Kat refuses to put on her helmet in the ''VideoGame/HaloReach'' short, and Jorge talks abut "going down with the ship" while playing with a miniature Covenant Corvette toy. Carter goes on about how he'll "fly right into the heart of the enemy" and Emile is obsessed with sharp objects. [[SarcasmMode Gee, I wonder what happens?]]
911** The video for ''Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019'' sees King Ghidorah, Rodan, and Mothra mock Godzilla for his inability to fly. Cue Godzilla pulling the same stunt he did in ''Film/GodzillaVsHedorah'' and using his Atomic Breath to launch himself into the air and ram into the former two.
912* ThatManIsDead: Averted with Darth Vader in ''Film/TheEmpireStrikesBack''. Darth Sidious attempts to invoke this, but Vader immediately recognizes that Anakin Skywalker is ''himself''.
913-->'''Emperor:''' I have no doubt, this boy is the offspring of Anakin Skywalker.\
914'''Vader:''' What? I have a son?!\
915'''Emperor:''' [''[[ComicallyMissingThePoint confused]]''] No, I said Anakin Skywalker has a son. You are Darth Vad--\
916'''Vader:''' I have a son! This is wonderful! I must see him! [''leaves the room'']
917* ThinkOfTheChildren: Iron Man exclaims this as a failed attempt to stop Ultron from creepifying any more Disney songs.
918* ThoseTwoGuys: ComicBook/{{Superman}} and ComicBook/{{Batman}} often meet in a diner and comment on such occurrences as ComicBook/SpiderMan's CharacterDerailment and ''HISHE'''s revival.
919* TickleTorture: Superman inflicts this on Batman in a parody of the "knightmare" sequence from ''Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice''.
920* TooDumbToLive: Frequently points out when characters do something utterly stupid that will get themselves killed. Jack invokes this in ''Titanic'', angrily berating Rose for having been perfectly safe on the lifeboat, but ''intentionally'' decided to get back onboard a ''sinking ship!''
921* TookALevelInBadass: In one of the endings for ''Aliens'', Newt takes a rifle and helps gun the queen down.
922[[/folder]]
923
924[[folder:U-Z]]
925* UnintentionallyUnsympathetic: [[invoked]] Their take on Creator/ThomasHadenChurch's Sandman, who claims that he's not a bad person because all of his crimes are motivated by the excuse that he has a sick daughter.
926* VillainsOutShopping: Villains Out Drinking, actually. Also ribbing each other and complaining about their foiled plans, which is why they need a Villain Pub.
927* VirtualGhost: In ''Man of Steel'', Lara is [[WhatTheHellHero not happy]] to discover Jor-El only created one of these in his image for their son, instead of making one based on her as well.
928* VisualPun:
929** In ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', when [[spoiler:ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}]] sings "Let It Go", [[spoiler:he grabs ComicBook/{{Storm|MarvelComics}}]] at the "Let the storm rage on" part. The reissued version changed the line to, "[[spoiler:This girl's named 'Storm']]", eliminating the pun.
930** The ''Inside Out'' video shows Riley enduring a "brain fart", which stinks up headquarters. Later on, headquarters also explodes after [[spoiler:Bing Bong]] "blows Riley's mind".
931* VitriolicBestBuds: Superman and Batman.
932* VocalDissonance: Any time Jon Bailey voices someone with the same voice he usually puts on for ''Honest Trailers'' can seem jarring.
933* VocalEvolution: Darth Vader sounds very different in [[spoiler:''Film/StarTrek2009'']] compared to the videos about the ''Franchise/StarWars'' sequels.
934* WallSlump: Deadly slump against a wall is how Jules and Vincent meet their end in "How ''Film/PulpFiction'' should have ended" episode. [[http://youtu.be/ASs8odtJjLI?t=1m26s See it here.]]
935* WarmBloodbagsAreEverywhere: In ''Literature/{{Twilight}}''.
936* WaxingLyrical: Almost all of Ultron's dialogue in the parody of the ''Age of Ultron'' teaser consists of the lyrics to songs from Creator/{{Disney}}-owned animated movies.
937* WhamLine: In their ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxyVol2'' spoof, we get a parody of one of the numerous end credits scenes, specifically the one where Ayesha is creating [[spoiler:[[ComicBook/Warlock1967 Adam Warlock]]]]. However, there are two major twists: first, she makes it her intent to go after the Super Hero Cafe. Second...
938--> '''Ayesha:''' I think I shall call him "[[spoiler:[[Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice Martha]]]]".
939** Terminator: How It Should End opens with Sarah Connor narrating that for the past three movies Skynet sent terminators to kill John Connor. She points out that Skynet could send one to kill any of them when they're a baby. They realize they have only one solution...
940--> '''John Connor''': We have to terminate the creator of time travel!\
941''((reprogams a T-1000 and sends it back in time))''\
942'''T-1000''': [[spoiler:[[Franchise/BackToTheFuture Doctor Emmett Brown?]]]]
943* WhamShot: At the end of the ''Suicide Squad'' spoof. [[spoiler:As the eponymous squad is thrown out of the Villain Pub, the camera shifts to Batman, watching from a rooftop. The pub is discovered.]]
944-->'''Batman:''' [[spoiler:Well, well, well. What ''do'' we have here?]]
945** At the end of ''How Film/WonderWoman2017 Should Have Ended'', we get a shot of [[spoiler:[[ComicBook/Warlock1967 Adam Warlock]] [[ItMakesSenseInContext (renamed "Martha" in this continuity)]] jumping out of a portal. He then takes out a photo of Batman and Superman at the cafe...]]
946** At the end of their ''Film/SpiderManHomecoming'' video (before the part with Cap), Michelle tries to show Batman a sketch she did of him, but accidentally shows him a sketch of [[spoiler:Adam/Martha]] beforehand...
947* WhatHappenedToTheMouse:
948** Jun doesn't even appear in the ''VideoGame/HaloReach'' short. [[spoiler:But the Chief does.]]
949** During the ''Lost'' short, Lapidus' theme music lampshades that didn't Walt and Widmore used to be important?
950** In ''Oblivion'', what happens when all the ''other'' Jack Harper clones show up, complete with their own pissed off [[ClingyJealousGirl Victoria's]]?
951** In the ''Eternals'' episode, Druig is completely absent, even during scenes he was present for in the original film.
952* WhatTheHellHero:
953** To Jake in ''Film/{{Avatar}}'', since he never bothered to tell the Na'vi what the RDA actually wanted from them. You know, the ''entire'' point he was sent on that mission in order to ''prevent'' them from going to war?
954** Harry Osborn to his butler after realizing the latter knew the truth about his father, but never told him for ''3 whole years''.
955--->'''Harry:''' I took a grenade to the ''face'', dude!
956** Bishop and Newt to Ripley after she opens the airlock.
957** Superman to Batman, after he decided instead to simply ''run over'' the Joker, since it "[[LoopholeAbuse Didn't kill 'im]]".
958** In ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}'', Grand Pabbie, pretty much voices most if not entire fandom, attempting to explain to Elsa's parents why shutting her away/teaching her to fear her powers is a terrible idea.
959--->'''Grand Pabbie:''' Oh, wow. You guys are ''bad parents''.
960** Superman yells at the townspeople for cheering for Godzilla when he saved the world from the MUTO at the expense of property damage and many lives, yet shunning him when he did the same thing against Zod and his minions.
961** The eponymous princess from "HISHE Kids Fixed Fairy Tales" chews out the Prince and his mother for making her sleep on a crappy mattress to prove she actually is a princess and worth marrying him even though she might not want to, and promptly goes off to find a prince that won't subject her to idiotic tests of characters.
962** In the ''Spider-Man: Homecoming'' episode, Superman and Batman let Tony have it for giving Peter, an untrained 15-year old, a weaponized supersuit. At the same time, Rhodey isn't happy that Peter's suit is equipped with a parachute while the War Machine armor doesn't have one, despite its flight capabilities.
963** The other jungle animals (sans Shere Khan, [[YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame for all the wrong reasons]]) are understandably upset with Bagheera for his decision to bring a baby to a pack of hungry wolves.
964-->'''Baloo:''' What did you think was gonna happen?\
965'''Bagheera:''' They were supposed to raise him! Like Tarzan!
966* WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer: Odin's parenting method.
967-->'''Odin:''' Blahohdinsleep.\
968'''Loki:''' I've done it father! I've destroyed all of Jotunheim while you were sleeping!\
969'''Odin:''' And that is why ''you'' are also banished!\
970'''Loki:''' What?\
971'''Odin:''' I take from you, your power!\
972''[Loki's helmet and spear fly into Odin's hands]''\
973'''Odin:''' And I cast you out!\
974''[Odin zaps Loki into a portal]''

976* WildCard: ComicBook/TheJoker, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cmhEg-nDGJA&t=2m20s naturally]].
977-->'''Joker:''' Know what I woulda done? I woulda said "You wanna know how I got these scars?"\
978'''Loki:''' And?\
979'''Joker:''' Then I'd blow something up, Idunno, I kinda like to keep people guessing.
980* WipeThatSmileOffYourFace: At the end of ''Film/Deadpool2'' at the Villain Pub, Deadpool gloats how he saved all the villains by using time travel to seize the Infinity Gauntlet. Thanos thus began to rant that he "didn't sit in that chair for ten years for nothing," and warns Wade that he'll have what's rightfully his in the end... only for Deadpool to erase his mouth with the power of the Infinity Gauntlet.
981-->'''Deadpool:''' What's that, One-Armed Willy? I didn't hear you.
982* WithinParameters: Parodied in ''Film/SpiderMan3'':
983-->'''Scientist 1:''' There's a change in the silicon mass.\
984'''Scientist 2:''' Yeah, it's probably just a bird.\
985'''Scientist 3:''' Here's a bright idea: why don't you make sure it's just a bird before you mutate the crap out of something just because you were too lazy to safely run this nighttime sand mutation experiment?\
986'''Scientist 2:''' Fine. ''[stops experiment]'' ...That is a big bird down there. Kinda looks like a guy. Oh, wait, it ''is'' a guy down there!
987* AWizardDidIt: Zig-zagged in ''Harry Potter''. [[spoiler:Snape]] initially just says, "Magic. Duh." when explaining how [[spoiler:he survived his apparent death by Nagini]], but immediately goes on to explain ''how'' he used magic to do it: [[spoiler:one of the backup plans he'd naturally prepared as a double agent, honey badger antivenom]].
988* WorthIt:
989** In ''Series/GameOfThrones'' Sansa's head-on-a-spike invokes this after pushing Joffrey off the rampart to his death.
990** The reaction of the Vietnamese general from ''Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast'' after Mystique goes into PervertRevengeMode after he says he still thinks she's hot.
991* WritersCannotDoMath: When Snape goes back in time with the Time-Turner to kill Voldemort, he turns it over about 262,000 times, which, at an hour per turn, should put him back about thirty years -- nowhere near enough to get Tom at the orphanage.
992* WritingAroundTrademarks: Some videos change the lyrics of pop songs to get around copyrights.
993* WrongGenreSavvy:
994** Venom in ''Film/SpiderMan3''.
995** Randy from ''Film/{{Scream}}'' turns out to be this when [[spoiler:[[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet Freddy Krueger]]]] shows up.
996* YouCantThwartStageOne: Very frequently subverted, which is unsurprising given the premise of the series. In fact most of the scenarios the show portrays happen before the climax.
997* YouMeddlingKids: After Captain America and his crew take down Alexander Pierce offscreen:
998-->'''Pierce:''' And I would've gotten away with it too, if it weren't for you sneaky kids and your disguise-o-mesh!
999* YouMonster: If you click the button at the end of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ki6-BmrWgmE Villain Pub - To Battle!!!]] it will take you to a video of earth being destroyed, followed by the words "You Monster".
1000* YourApprovalFillsMeWithShame: Shere Khan inflicts this on Bagheera when he thanks him for offing Mowgli for him in their take on ''WesternAnimation/TheJungleBook1967''.
