Whamise this line. A Game.

The hero has just realized the villain had the power to defeat him all along- he just wanted to make the fight more fun. After saying the above line, the villain disintegrates the hero and leaves peacefully.

I remember 50 years ago, I was just like you.

The main character was just curious how the local Child Prodigy was able to create gadgets and use terminology that was incredibly advanced. But it turns out that he's had a LOT more time to research than his appearance indicates.

"Was I really the only guy paying attention to the opening credits?"

The villain in this world is actually the creator of the movie/show. The hero realizes this, and breaks the fourth wall.

"Kid, you don't seem to understand. Twenty million people will die, many of them young women your age, and it will be your fault."

Turns out the miracle cure for bad periods suppress them by suppressing all their bodily functions. The evil mastermind behind all of this told our heroes after they shipped it out. Opps.

"Well, looks like I was a book in a past life."

A team of paranormal investigators are tasked with helping the spirit of a librarian, who died in a fire at the local library. They save a young ghost girl with amnesia from a shadowy beast, assuming that she's what the librarian looked like as a child, and try to restore her memories so that she can safely pass on. The problem is, however, that the girl is actually the spirit of the librarian's favourite book as a young girl, which was also burnt to cinders in the fire. And that means that the shadowy beast hunting them down has been the librarian's ghost all along, too focused on her book to even regain a human form...

"There's a perfectly logical explanation for this, of course, but I just don't feel like telling you what it is quite yet."

Line spoken from a woman to her husband. They'd been happily married for many years until a few months ago the normally rational wife started acting irrationally, snapping at her husband in brief fits of anger, lying to him, hiding things from him, going away for days at a time on "business trips", etc. Until her hubbie gets sick of this after a few months and confronts her about it, he suspects she's having an affair. But actually she's a sleeper agent for some nefarious secretive group but is hiding this from him to protect him because the plan is about to go into action very soon.

"What we have here is a failure to communicate."

"...The communication is out? Then...who have been giving us orders?"

"Open your eyes, and see the sky shatter."

The heroes live in a domed city with simulated sky. The moment they realize this is when invaders from outside the dome come and attack. The line is said by the Cloudcuckoolander.

"Just Live More"

At this moment, the heroes realize that The Philosopher on their team will not help them at all...

"Was she trying to show me... Oh, Crap!!"

These were a team member's last words before seeing Medusa's head.

"I-it's a wave, sir."

The governor of the state of Texas has just received news that a natural disaster is coming, and wants more information. Sufficed to say, considering how far away they are from the ocean, being told that you are about to be hit by the first wave of a giant tsunami is as confusing at it is distressing.

"And then Internet Explorer was an anime."

A dangerous virus has went on every computer in the world and turned the Internet into Dragonball Z. It also sucks whoever is on the computer into the anime, in a hunger games and matrix twist.

"Only you are foolish enough to trust a black knight."

The Darth Vader Clone is just about to have a Heel–Face Turn, since the heroes actually honored his pleas for mercy (he follows it with "...but perhaps the world needs more foolish men like you").

Actually, I have several last words: Knight to E3.

The Chess Master announces the arrival of his minions just before he gets killed. Bonus points if this is the E3 Game Expo.

"Honestly, you are not actually that important, and I don't give a single crap if I have to kill you."

The hero has thought he was destined to defeat the villain because of a scroll, but the villain actually made that scroll.

"Sorry, but life isn't just a board game. Life is a painting that you can't paint."

The hero has been trying to get the board game Life due to a prophecy that says that if he recreates it, he'll game the power to defeat the ultimate bad guy. But it turns out that the store clerk that he was talking to has already recreated it as a painting and gained power that allows him to become the second ultimate bad guy.

"When I was a young lad like you, my mother always used to tell me not to play in the rain, because I'd catch cold. If only she could see me now."

The Mentor has just revealed to The Hero that his experiments with water and ice magic have taken their toll, and now he's going to die any day from Super-Power Meltdown and become the water he has always used. He's standing in the rain with his student as he is saying this.

"Now tell me: What exactly did you see?"

Big Bad in a disguise of a police detective has captured The Chick - who happened to witness a crime of his - and is now questioning her mano-a-mano, preparing torture tools as they speak.

In a world where Black Wolf, White Wolf, Snake and Lion bare their teeth ready to lunge at each other's throat, Manticore lies in wait, grinning.

Four men are vying to rule the land: two brothers from the savage wilds preparing a revolution, a treacherous vizier as slippery as a reptile, and the rightful king ready to defend his throne. But nobody expected a FIFTH character, a warlock from a realm so mysterious that it was believed to be a complete myth, to join the fray...not until the strange old man spoke those words, and the armies of the other four men all suddenly dropped dead right as a war begun.

"I’m pretty sure one of those was a camel."

Once every year, the drug dealing camel arrives in the stoner main character's hometown. The main character has never seen the camel before, so he is very excited and wants to buy some drugs from it. While under the influence, he decides that it would be completely to kill four cows to give as an offering to the drug-dealing camel. He goes out and shoots some, then asks what his friend thinks of the cows he killed. His friend replies with this line, revealing that the main character has killed the drug dealing camel.

"I had a lot of promises I made for if I was elected president, and by cheese, I'm keepin' em! Here kid. Have your five dollars!"

A politician involved into lots of supposedly corrupt stuff and with his reputation hanging on the last hair turns out to be as clear as day, realizing every single one of his promises as an elected president, including the smallest, most irrelevant ones - such as giving the kid that asked him to for five dollars.

"Charlie Foxtrot, sir."

During World War III, in the year 2030, robots and humans are at war with each other, slaughering each other with brutal force. One soldier realizes why the robots are so hostile- the giant radio tower has turned them evil. He knows dropping the bomb on it might kill most of the soldiers, but he knows he needs to do it, to ensure a future of peace. After saying the above command (meaning "drop the bomb"), the bomb drops... and the resulting explosion combined with the electric tower causes a time rift, and warps time back to 2016. Time is altered so that the radio tower is never built, saving the humans.

You must not have realized the power... of soda.

The Big Bad Friend has gone One-Winged Angel against our hero. But our Science Hero has tricked the villain into swallowing a pill that reacts explosively with stomach acid like Mentos with soda. Earlier in the story, the hero was discussing with the villain the destructive power of a rebellious faction armed with deadly weapons, using the metaphor of soda and Mentos to illustrate the point.

All this talk is making me hungry...for a slice of Grandma's Apple Pie.

A team of time travelers has rescued a few Roman soldiers for whatever reason and has taken them to some other time period. After the time travelers have given the spiel about the basic facts of time travel and about who they are, one of the soldiers says the above line. Since he obviously isn't supposed to know what apple pie is or that it is usually associated with grandmothers, this reveals that he is also a time traveler.

"Come. Here. Right. Now."

Big Good turns out to be not-so-good after all. Now he stands against a team of heroes or rather what's left of it: his Motive Rant earlier has managed to sway The Lancer, The Big Guy and Sixth Ranger to his side. The Hero and The Smart Guy are clearly against his maddening idea, but The Chick seems reluctant to believe any of the sides. This line is uttered by "Big Good" who is tired of waiting and reveals he's not so above after all, causing the previous three to realize they were about to make a giant mistake and promptly abandon his side.

Allow me to show you the results of your hard work.
