Boxers with red/pink hearts

  • The pimp at the beginning of the 1977 exploitation flick Fight For Your Life is shown to be wearing loveheart boxers after Kane and his buddies steal his car and his clothes.
  • Murtaugh from Lethal Weapon 4; when directed by Riggs to strip to his boxer shorts to distract a madman wielding a flamethrower, Riggs asks with a laugh "Are those little hearts?"
  • Disney loves this:
    • Jasmine's suitor at the beginning of Disney's Aladdin. Odd, since the Sultan is holding a piece of heart fabric as though it's from the underwear, when in fact it should be from the pants that Rajah bit a hole in.
      • Also one of the guards during One Jump Ahead — not hearts, but white polka dots on pink background.
    • In Disney's Mulan, when the Comic Trio goes skinny-dipping, one of them drops his red hearts boxers on Mushu. (It seems the Ancient Chinese invented these, too.)
    • Pete in Disney's The Prince and the Pauper wears frilly heart print underpants.
    • In The Princess and the Frog, a hunter's red heart underwear is exposed after a gunshot narrowly misses his crotch.
    • A female Disney example: In Alice in Wonderland, when the Queen of Hearts falls over, her bloomers have, as you'd expect, red hearts on them.
    • Ken from Toy Story 3
    • In the Peter Pan sequel Return To Neverland, a huge octopus mistakes Captain Hook for a codfish, grabs him by his legs, and accidentally pulls off Hook's pants to reveal he wears heart print boxers underneath.
    • Randall Bogg's Startof Darkness during the final round of the Scare Games near the end of Monsters University is a non-comedic variation of the trope: Sulley's roar is so loud that this messes up Randall's attempt and lands on a rug behind the simulator robot and takes on this pattern, causing the other members of Roar Omega Roar to mock him and Randall to vow revenge on Sulley.
    (Randall changes back to his normal colors and angrily looks at Sulley)
    Randall: That's the last time I lose to you, Sullivan...
  • Mr. Wolf from The Bad Guys (2022).

Other-print boxers

  • In the 1933 short film Beauty and the Bus, a theatre manager is revealed to be wearing flamboyantly dappled boxer shorts when Patsy Kelly accidentally rips his trousers clean off in the process of slipping and falling off the stairs to the stage.
  • Transformers:
    • In what may have been intended as a Shout-Out, Sam Witwicky (played by Shia LaBeouf) is revealed to be wearing blue boxers with transformers on them when Frenzy attacks a terrified Sam and pulls off his pants.
    • Agent Simmons (played by John Turturro) found himself handcuffed to a lightpole wearing some gaudy tropical boxers. Mikaela scoffs at that; the agent is too busy plotting revenge to be embarrassed.
    • It's certainly far better than what he wears in the sequel.
  • In the George Lucas film version of Howard the Duck, the title character was strip-searched by police, exposing a pair of red boxers with white polka dots.
  • Christopher Lambert's character in The Hunted (1995) wears boxers dotted with cute little pigs, which his lover finds rather amusing.
    Paul: Yeah... I like piggies.
  • The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure: Toofie's underwear is blue with bunnies on them. Understandable, since the main characters are children...
  • Terminator 2: Judgment Day: When the T-800 enters the biker bar, everyone stares. In-universe, it's because it was Naked on Arrival. During filming, Arnold Schwarzenegger was wearing these to get the desired reactions from the extras.
  • The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Aleksei Systevich wears boxers with rhino faces (appropriately enough).
  • Just standard striped boxers but played for laughs in Help! when Ringo is strapped into a Mad Scientist molecule-enlarging machine to remove a stubborn ring. All his other rings but that one drop off, then his zipper undoes itself and his trousers drop.
  • Rio: As Marcel is parachuting down with his henchmen hanging onto his legs, his pants come down showing his underwear is blue with ducks on them.

During the "Now That We're Men" musical number, his pants are ripped off for one verse, revealing that he's now wearing whites as a sign of adulthood.

Childish women's underwear

  • Not so much childish as actually children's underwear in Charlie's Angels (2000), as Cameron Diaz's character was wearing Spider-Man Underoos.
  • In Dude, Where's My Car? the heroes are menaced by a giant alien woman... wearing pink bunny panties.

  • Rita from Flushed Away is revealed to have blue-and-white striped boxers during the scene where Roddy accidentally pulls down her pants while escaping from the Toad and his henchrats while using the sewer gate's main cable as a zipline. Rita then proceeds to use said cable as a belt shortly after escaping.
  • In the The Nanny Diaries, Annie Braddock is pantsed by the kid she's babysitting revealing her bright pink panties with dog print on them.
  • In Rugrats in Paris, Coco LaBouche loses the back of her dress revealing purple underwear with green hearts and pink S's which are supposedly dollar signs.

Other women's underwear

  • In Anger Management (the movie, not the TV series), there is a scene in which Heather Graham has a cameo as a beautiful but psychotic woman. She invites Adam Sandler into her home (Sandler's therapist, played by Jack Nicholson, has set this all up, but that's not known at the time) and attempts to seduce him by appearing in nothing but Boston Red Sox fan lingerie (with the bra cups resembling baseballs) and then starting to peel off the bra. Sandler nervously tells her to stop (he has a girlfriend), but this causes the woman to assume he thinks she's fat and to very slowly have a nervous breakdown, culminating in her screaming at him, throwing a chocolate cake in his face, and throwing him out into the rain.
  • Are You Being Served?:
    • Mrs. Slocombe's bloomers have the Union Jack printed on them:
      Mrs. Slocombe: Ooh, I 'ope I 'aven't forgotten me passport.
      Mr. Harman: Don't worry, if you show that lot at customs what you're showin' us, I'm sure they'll know you're British.
    • Conchita wears knickers that say "OLÉ!" on them.
