    Tale as old as time
    The song as old as rhyme
    Beauty and the Beast.
  • Corpse Bride contains a number of title drops, as most of the inhabitants of the underworld refer to Emily as either "the bride" or "our corpse bride". Victoria, the living bride, also uses it once when speaking to the minister.
