* QuoteToQuoteCombat: In ''Porky's II'', the school Creator/{{Shakespeare}} production is being shut down by a group of hyper-conservative religious nuts who think Shakespeare is immoral. They quote [[QuoteMining out of context]] dirty Shakespeare passages (of which there are many) to support their cause. But the school principal, who supports the show, goes quote-for-quote against them using Literature/TheBible as his source of smutty sayings. Toward the end, while the reverend flips through Shakespeare seeking more ammunition, the principal is quoting chapter and verse of equivalent Scripture [[MomentOfAwesome without opening the Bible.]]
