Running Gag / CinemaSins

Common Running Gags

• "This is exactly what I said to my college girlfriend before _____" ^note Jeremy will often take a female character's lines out of context in reference to his own love/sex life, with a heaping of Self-Deprecation to boot.
• "This movie steals all the ___"
• The end of each episode, when the movie is given a "sentence". In earlier episodes, they all shared one sentence: "hell". In later episodes, the sentence became more appropriate and, inherently, more hilarious.
• The "biggest beneficiaries" in the What'$ the Damage? videos are based off of a summary of what gets destroyed the most regularly.^note For example, in the 1998 Godzilla video, there was a hefty number of buildings wrecked, so the biggest beneficiary of the video was real estate developers.
• "(#) seconds of logo(s)." ^note When a film takes forever to remind you who made it.
• "Scene does not contain a lapdance." ^note Usually involving scenes with flirting or hot ladies.
  • In Iron Man 3, the sheer quantity of "Scene does not contain a lapdance" moments submitted by fans gets a bonus round.
  • Inverted in RoboCop, when an attractive female scientist at an office party playfully kisses Murphy who, at this point, is just a brain and various organs hooked to a computer.
    Jeremy: Scene does not contain a lap.
  • When there's actually a lapdance, Jeremy removes a sin.
    • Except when he doesn't.
• "(This Actor) isn't (this role or doing this thing from another movie they're in) in this scene." Reoccurring ones include:
  • "Liam Neeson isn't killing anyone in this scene."
  • invoked "Andy Serkis isn't getting nominated for an Oscar in this scene."
  • "(Attractive Actress) isn't my girlfriend/wife in this scene."
  • "Sean Bean isn't dying in this scene." ^note Due to his large presence as the villain in Goldeneye, the gag gets upgraded to things like "Sean Bean isn't dying in THIS scene!" and then "Finally!" when he actually dies for real.
  • "Danny Glover isn't too old for this shit in this scene."
  • "Sharlton Copley isn't turning into a prawn in this scene."
  • This now extends to more than just people: "The Golden Gate Bridge isn't being attacked by primates, supervillains, or Godzillas in this scene."
• "And I'm okay with that. (And I am not okay with that.)" ^note Whenever the good guys do something that is equal parts morally questionable and completely logical, leading the narrator to feel conflicted.
• Jeremy has a tendency of referring to specific characters in movies (and themselves) as "assholes" whether the character is good or bad.
• "That's racist." ^note  Everything Is Racist: A character says a vaguely-discriminatory remark. Or any remark which brings up race, gender, color, nationality, sexuality, ethnicity, or species.
  • This loosens up over time, giving us such gems as "that's just all sorts of -ist."
• "Unnecessary orders." ^note When a character gives an order that was unnecessary, since either the person he gives the order to is already doing it, or the order is so obvious that there was no need to say it.
• "Unkeepable promises." ^note When a character promises something that is obviously not within their power.
• "What?!"
• "Ah! Sudden (actor name/thing/other)!" ^note Whenever a popular actor, thing, or other stuff appears in the film out of nowhere.
• "DC Comics." ^note Originally this was to call out the 2012 DC logo for being redundant. Since "DC" was an acronym for "Detective Comics", that meant the 2012 logo was for "Detective Comics Comics". Presently, in light of the underperforming "DC Cinematic Universe", a movie gets dinged any time the DC logo is shown, or if DC Heroes are even mentioned.
• "I believe in [impossible thing]. I really do. But I don't believe in [stupid, unlikely, or implausible thing]."
• "(Object)-ex machina."^note Where (object) is whatever comes out of nowhere to save or aid a character.
• It's common for Jeremy to say that demons and ghosts in horror movies are dicks, since they more fuck with the people they are haunting than actually taking what they want.
• "Reading." ^note When there's text on screen, an Opening Scroll, or a shot of a character reading
• "Narration." ^note When one of the characters is narrating the scene for the first time in the movie, mostly in the opening.
  • Jai Courtney narration. *ding* Also, Jai Courtney. *ding*
• "Exposition."
  • "(noun) exposition. (noun)sposition?"
• "Narreading."
• "The Prometheus School of Running Away From Things." ^note In the Prometheus sins video, Chris, in his only outing as narrator (not counting the ten-year anniversary re-sin of said movie), described one of the characters trying to avoid a giant toppling structure by just running in the direction it was falling rather than dodging to the side. After that video, they began to refer to any character doing something similarly stupid in any other movie this way.
  This is exactly how Shaggy and Scooby would try and run from this thing.
  • Also, it's Music Video Sins counterpart, "the Ariana Grande School of Diction".^note Coined due to Ariana's enunciation being a bit difficult to understand sometimes, leading to jokes about how she runs a school for strange diction.
• "In case you confused it with (famous city/location), (random country)." ^note Whenever text appears on screen saying something like "Oxford University, England", or "Las Vegas, Nevada". Done several times when this happens in their X-Men: First Class video.
  • More recently, naming a random location such as Cadiz, Kentucky and finding out said location actually exists.
• "The director/animator said, 'Let's have (character) take a bite out of that apple. It'll make him/her look like even more of an asshole." ^note This is based off of the DVD Commentary for Star Trek (2009) where J. J. Abrams discusses having Kirk eat an apple to seem more smug.
• "(Character) plays the pronoun game so other character has to ask who the hell they're talking about." ^note When characters refer to important plot points using pronouns instead of the names.
• Whenever a particular sin is repeated many times in a movie, when he gets to the third time describing the sin, he'll either cut himself off and go "Ah, f*ck it," or the third time the audio will slowly mute.
• "Well, this beats my fan-fiction all to hell" ^note If a film has several actors with famous roles (like for example on the "Everything Wrong With Death Race 2000" video with David Carradine (Kwai Chang Caine), Sylvester Stallone (Rambo) and Martin Kove (Cobra-Kai sensei John Kreese)) and doing something cool.
• "Director had obvious disagreement with the prop-master over the definition of 'enough X'" ^note (where X is something that appears in great quantity in a scene).
• *Title Drop* "Roll credits." ^note (In the videos for The Lord of the Rings Trilogy, he also says "Oh, wait.").
  • For TVSins, they change it to "Roll commercials".
• "They survive this" or "Yeah, no. He's/she's/they're/<name>'s dead." ^note Where "this" is something that would ordinarily be lethal, but isn't.
  • "Some bullshit." ^note Something completely unrealistic.
• "Polite debris." ^note When falling rocks or other forms of debris would've realistically crushed whomever they were falling upon, but don't.
• "Skip!" ^note In any scene involving romantic tension or characters arguing or other sort of filler, a few lines of dialogue will play before the narrator says this, then adds a sin and moves on.
  • "I was about to say skip but [enter character here] said it for me!" ^note When another character interrupts said tension/argument.
  • Occasionally the drama will go on for so long he'll have to skip again because he didn't get through all of it.
• "This goes on for some time." / "Movie has time for this." ^note Similar to the above, when a scene happens that is Padding, an Overly Long Gag, or unimportant otherwise.
  • "But then again in a movie that's over two and a half hours long, EVERYTHING goes on for some time!
• <Any type of movie> cliche.
• Everytime a movie character, in a misunderstanding, tries to shoo someone they know away emotionally, Jeremy points out that they are ripping off Encino Man.
• "(Adjective)(noun) is (same adjective)." ^note An example being "Unkillable protagonist is unkillable."
• "Movie unintentionally inspires (other movie)" ^note "Movie unintentionally inspires every Austin Powers movie ever" after a particular scene.
• "THEN DO IT ALREADY!" ^note A person or a villain is monologuing his plans, or announces his intentions to kill the protagonist instead of doing it right away.
• "Well, someone needs a sandwich." *ding* ^note After someone passes out due to being either exhausted or overly emotional.
• "Aww, man. They dragged poor <actor> into this, didn't they?" ^note When a great actor or person makes an appearance in a terrible film.
  • Inverted in Tarzan with "Aww, man. Rosie O'Donnell dragged the movie into this, didn't she?" Similarly inverted with Shia LaBeouf in I, Robot.
• "(Character)" would be excellent at CinemaSins. ^note Whenever a character criticizes the current scene, points out that something logically doesn't make sense, or comments on how stupid it is.
  • Subverted in Hotel Transylvania 3, when Jeremy says that, despite having a point in questioning how Johnny's able to carry his DJ equipment with him, Dracula would suck at CinemaSins just because of how much he hates the movie.
  • In The LEGO Batman Movie, Jeremy starts wondering if the movie is actually a fan of CinemaSins.
  • Inverted in Avengers: Infinity War, in which he says that Okoye is worse than CinemaSins for questioning something that was already explained In-Universe.
• "X have the same weakness as the aliens from Signs" for weakness to water.^note And yes, they did it to Signs, too.
• "The power of boners is stronger." ^note Happens when males who lost their powers suddenly gain them back in the presence of a girl they love.
• "Earn that paycheck, Tyrese!" ^note Mocking actor Tyrese Gibson for his predictable line delivery and racist remarks, most notably in the Fast and Furious series.
• "Bad" Directors' names are sinned without explanation. Same goes for writer Nicholas Sparks.
• "Discount ______". ^note When an actor (or, more rarely, a location or prop) appears who resembles a better-known actor, location, or prop. The implication is that they couldn't afford the real thing so they got second-best. This is also applicable for actors pre-popularity while appearing in minor roles in other movies or cases of The Other Darrin.
  • Occasionally redirected as "Discount ______ oh shit!" ^note This form is used as though it is suddenly realized that the "discount" actor is the real deal. e.g. in Snowpiercer, "Discount still-alive John Hurt is OH SHIT!".
  • Parodied in Terminator: Genisys, which gets dinged twice for replacing Arnold and Bill Paxton. The joke being that the young Arnie is CGI, but Jeremy doesn't notice this.
  • And again in Friday the 13th, where he counts a pre-fame Kevin Bacon as discount Kevin Bacon anyway.
• "We interrupt (the movie) to bring you (another movie)" or "Well...somebody saw (another movie)" ^note When a scene resembles a scene from another film
• "It's not a (type of movie) if (cliche from said type of movie)" ^note "It can't be a superhero movie in the early 2000s without heroes saving people from a burning building.
• "Doctor Who is that?" ^note When a film features an actor who played the Doctor, or even a regular character, on Doctor Who.
• "<sigh>" ^note When someone says/does something very stupid/cliched.

• "This (object)."
  • "This guy", for any extra with an annoying trait that catches his attention.

  • As of Jurassic World, this now earns five sins every time.
• Whenever Anna Kendrick is in a movie, he gushes about her every time she's on screen.
  • Also, expect narration interrupting or preempting her lines to be heavily sinned.
• "SHOUTED WOOOOOOOOOOOOOORD!!" "Shouted word." ^note Whenever someone shouts something, Jeremy repeats what they said in his signature soft-spoken, swift tone, mostly as mockery. Most often used in response to a Big "NO!".
• "Hahahahahahahaha. [beat] HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA." ^note During stupid and nonsensical moments, Jeremy would laugh and it will count as a sin. However, he removes a sin if it is Actually Pretty Funny.
• "(Character) is a dick to (other character or thing)." ^note When someone, whether justified or not, does something that could be mean to another character or thing. Examples include:

  • When Anna is frightened by Olaf when she first meets him and kicks his head off: "Anna is a dick to snowmen she's just met."

• "No one will be seated during the (X) scene."^note Jeremy calling out a relatively useless scene that isn't extremely important plot-wise.
• "We're not made of stone, dammit." ^note Jeremy dropping the snark to admit when he finds a second heartwarming or otherwise adorable. Often accompanied with Jeremy removing a sin.
• Counting seconds. e.g. "we have 5 seconds to disarm that bomb!" Jeremy: "1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9... 10... 11... 12... 13." *ding*
• "Aw, shit. There goes HBO again." ^note Jeremy saying this whenever a satellite in space gets destroyed.

• "Let's talk about [Big Bad's] plan..." ^note Whenever the main villain's plan ends up being stupendously convoluted or idiotic.
• The Wilhelm Scream. ^note Originally sinned for causing severe Mood Whiplash whenever it comes up, the gag is now turned into Jeremy stating that characters making that scream are apparently members of the Wilhelm family.
  • "Doghelm Scream" is a variant that pops up when a generic dog yelping is heard.
• "Nants ingonyama..." ^note Used in the ending sequences, whenever a sunrise is shown.
  • Seeing as they couldn't do this for the actual The Lion King video, the sunrise clip was instead shown with a Robin Williams voiceover saying Good Morning, Vietnam!
• Mario "coin collect" sound / Sonic "ring collect" sound. ^note Either one is heard during a video's post-review Bonus Round to add on even more sins to the total accrued in the actual review.
  • Said bonus rounds will often include music from the games as well, usually World 1-1, Green Hill Zone, the "Special Stage theme from Sonic the Hedgehog 2, or the "bonus stage" theme from Super Mario World.
• Sarah McLachlan's song "Angel". ^note A snippet of it is used in the ending sequence, whenever a clip of a sad scene involving an animal, such as a dog, is shown (a la those ASPCA commercials that feature McLachlan).

• In the stingers, any scene with an old fashioned pocket watch is inevitably dubbed over with Christopher Walken's "uncomfortable piece of metal" speech from Pulp Fiction.
• In TV Sins, Jeremy will make comments praising a character that will die or go away shortly, saying "good thing he/she/they are not going anywhere", such as Eddard Stark, Barb and Jesse.
• Any time a Gigantic Moon appears, he gives it a sin for being a Bruce Almighty moon.
• Post-March 2019, whenever the 20th Century Fox logo appears: "Disney."^note Referring to the latter's acquisition of the former, obviously, although it's typically applied to movies made before said acquisition.
• Kids. ^note Sins are common for the very presence of kids in a movie, especially if they do anything a kid would be expected to do that an adult would find obnoxious. A Christmas Story gets a bonus round because "The sin, as always, is kids."
• Jeremy will sometimes make up completely fabricated, humorous names for movies, usually inserting a comical subtitle, such as referring to Ant-Man and the Wasp as Ant-Man 2: Antebellum Parabellum.
• If there are an abundance of working lamps in a scene, which happens more often than one might expect, you can bet your ass Jeremy will point it out with as much, if not more, disdain as anything else.
