'''Basic Trope''': Ominous moments are accompanied by ominous Latin vocals.
* '''Straight''': As {{Lizard|Folk}}ax and {{B|igBad}}ob draw their swords to lock in mortal combat, the music whips into frenzy, topped off with an epic chanting choir.
* '''Exaggerated''':
** The choir is so loud that it drowns out any other sound while everything is devastated with an epic EarthShatteringKaboom.
** The choir is obviously the part that the producer blew the budget into, making it the only memorable part of the movie/anime/videogame/what have you.
* '''Downplayed''': There's just one singer chanting a capella.
* '''Justified''':
** Bob has kidnapped a choir.
** The epic battle is taking place in a church during choir practice.
** Bob brought a recording of Latin chanting with him as his personal ThemeMusicPowerUp.
** The chants are actually part of [[MagicMusic a magic ritual that either empowers Lizardax]] or turns Bob into a OneWingedAngel.
* '''Inverted''':
** A calm scene is accompanied by a CherubicChoir.
** The people from the choir are fighting each other while Bob and Lizardax are the ones singing.
** The choir are singing in English while Bob and Lizardax are speaking in Latin.
** A roman setting uses Latin music for most scenes - except for the duel which goes instrumental.
* '''Subverted''': The Latin choir is only the opening to what is otherwise a choir-less battle tune.
* '''Double Subverted''': ...but it returns when the enemy goes OneWingedAngel.
* '''Parodied''':
** The Choir [[LeftTheBackgroundMusicOn can be clearly seen in the background]].
** The choir can't carry a tune.
** The choir uses various profanities in their lyrics as a BilingualBonus.
** The Choir uses CanisLatinicus.
** The Choir chants something silly in PigLatin.
** The Choir chants in a StarfishLanguage.
** Every scene is always accompanied by OminousLatinChanting, even in moments where it shouldn't be there.
** Alice is watching the battle... and then bursts out laughing because she speaks Latin and the lyrics translate to something ridiculous.
** The choir uses random Latin words that are also part of English, like "aquarium".
* '''Zig-Zagged''': Every time there is a sword strike or hit landed the choir chants a note, going on and off as the battle progresses.
* '''Averted''':
** There is no music during the action sequence or the rhythmic drone of industrial machinery.
** A different type of music is playing during the scene.
* '''Enforced''':
** "Epic faux-Latin chanting Choir: Accept no substitutes".
** The creator knows Latin, so he can make it real.
* '''Lampshaded''': [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 "So we've got Benedictine monks living in the floorboards, unfortunately. We have set some traps with fresh bread and brandy, though..".]]
* '''Invoked''': "This epic battle is one for the ages, but it's missing something. I know! Let's add an epic faux-Latin chanting choir!"
* '''Exploited''': This is Lizardax's favorite kind of music, and hearing it bolsters his spirits and helps him find a better rhythm for his blows.
* '''Defied''': "Let's use an AC/DC song for the final battle".
* '''Discussed''': "Wait, I think I can get my local church choir to illustrate our epic battle, through music".
* '''Conversed''':
** "The chanting is nice, but I'd have preferred 'Sea of Sorrow' by ''Music/AliceInChains''".
** "Is this [[ShownTheirWork actual Latin]], or is it [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign just nonsense]]?"
* '''Deconstructed''': The music is clearly building towards epic points in tone, tied to moments in the battle, but since there is no choir to point the high points out, the song feels hollow and empty...
* '''Reconstructed''': ... Until the battle breaks into another room, and then choir comes in.
* '''Played For Laughs''':
** The choir members get in the way of the action, and their singing drowns out the combatants' smack talk. Eventually the frustrated Bob and Lizardax nod to each other, cut down the choir, and go to the tavern together for some ale.
** The Choir's translating of lyrics are ridiculous.
* '''Played for Horror''': The Latin chanting shows up whenever someone is possessed.
