I'm not seeing an interruption, I'm seeing someone quietly whisper "Don't", possibly to herself. It's not even listed in the examples. I think this is a better example.

[up] That's definitely more clear than the current. The text will probably be illegible at wiki size without some judicious cropping but I don't think it's really needed.

Might be better to just paint out the text, so it won't distract people. Works, though.

Text aside, I think it works.

Anyone know anything about artfully hiding text?

How would it look without the text and the crops?

I prefer the uncropped version.

Instead of 6.2, how about Mr. Incredible saving Oliver Sansweet from his fall in The Incredibles?

[up] I don't think we can capture that as cleanly as the Superman pic gets the trope across.

So that's four votes for 6.2.

Good enough. 6.2's swapped in and tagged; caption?

How about some or all of the text that was removed?
