* This [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RD6IcFz_yOQ BMW X4 advert from 2015]] appears to take place in one of these. The car drives through several cities in a wobbly world in which the entire land underneath is literally rolling up and down like an ocean; the movements are even implied to be felt inside buildings as shown with the balls rolling around on a Pool table. This [[https://vimeo.com/145996615 BMW X1 advert]] from the next year shows the car driving across several wobbly landscapes before arriving back at the city.

A common cartoon trope, where things looks normal, but have properties like rubber. This can allow for some fun and strange things to happen, such as bouncing off of rubbery buildings and such.

This may be a supertrope of BubblyClouds--clouds portrayed as bouncy like trampolines.

A common cartoon trope, where everything (or just large structures) looks normal, but have properties like rubber. This can allow for some fun and strange things to happen, such as bouncing off of rubbery buildings and such.

This may be a supertrope of BubblyClouds--clouds are quite commonly portrayed as bouncy like trampolines, although that is not always the case.

* The IndieGame ''Wibble Wobble'' is set in a world where the landscape is constantly [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin wibbly wobbling]]. This can work against you because if parts of the ground dip below a certain threshold, lava will briefly appear there.

* In ''Ghostbusters 2'', Dana is about to put Oscar into a pink slime-filled bath. The slime emerges as a hand/mouth creature...thing, and it reaches out to grab them as she runs away. Watch the bathtub carefully: when the monster lurches forward, the bathtub literally "squashes" along with it, like a cartoon!
* Disney's ''Son of Flubber'' envisions the benefits of the super-springy invention in a promotional film showing eggs, babies, etc. harmlessly bouncing on a flubberized floor.

* The Jelly Castle in ''CloudyWithAChanceOfMeatballs'' is both this trope and GelatinousTrampoline.

* ''NightsIntoDreams'' has Soft Museum, where literally everything, including the ground, is inexplicably bouncy.

* In ''OrionsArm'', Angelnets (objects made of nanites programmed by hyperturing [=AIs=] to protect the safety of modosophonts) can act this way.

* Elmo's house in ''[[SesameStreet Elmo's World]]''. Everything bends, twists, bounces or stretches. You can't just turn the doorknob, it streeeetches and the door "pops" open.

* This [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-VcYgE8eNVo rather trippy advert for Empire Beer]] shows a huge party inside a normal looking castle, complete with hallways, a bathroom, and a huge hall... until the interiors and furniture starts wobbling and bending around like crazy. At one point a sink bends downwards after someone falls onto it, spilling all of its water onto the floor, and the bathtub squishes as another person falls onto it. At the dance hall, the whole castle starts to shift like crazy as a rave kicks in, with the walls and an upper floor balcony violently bulging and swaying in and out as people jump up and down, and even small objects such as shoes and people laying on the floor are lifted up as the floor wobbles. We even see some people being tossed around high into the air, one of them straight into a window which bounces him back. At the very end, an outside shot reveals the action was taking place in a ''literal'' bouncy castle.

* Australian insurance company Allianz had a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwZVYvpUB2U series]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oUfoasENJlo of]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BRXxj6LC0ns adverts]] depicting a "world of protection" where ''everything'' is inflatable, with squishy cars and bulging inflatable buildings, right down to the ground itself shown to be squishing underneath the feet of people. [[NegatedMomentOfAwesome Sadly, nobody actually bounces around save for a child jumping on a car bonnet, nor does the inflated environment actually jiggle from the movement of people.]]

* In the AxisPowersHetalia movie, ''Paint it, White!'', everything that the ray from the Picto Alien's spaceship touches turns into a white, wobbly ''thing'' reminiscent of rubber. As it passes over cities and countries the world starts to resemble this Rubbery World.

* In C.S. Lewis' ''[[TheSpaceTrilogy Perelandra]]'', the eponymous planet has grasslands and forests that float on the surface of the ocean. A hill one moment is a valley another.

* ''VideoGame/TheFloorIsJelly'' has this applied to the entire game world, where the characters such as the player and frogs can bounce around on the bouncy ground and walls. Even rain splashing causes the ground to jiggle, and background objects even sway accordingly to the bending and warping ground.

* The [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3lL6hkpJveM "Mr. Soft"]] advert for [=SoftMints=] candy shows a world where everything is plush and rubbery. [[spoiler:Subverted when the guy walks into a lamppost which only ''looked'' plushy like everything else.]]

* ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' has a GameMod that allows you to use GLSL shaders. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JpksyojwqzE This shader]] literally bends the whole landscape in the distance back and forth, [[WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs like an acid trip]]. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kzY4n2j1jsk This shader]] also makes the whole game world shake and wobble like jelly, ''including the very ground beneath the player character's feet''.

* In the {{Axis Powers Hetalia}} movie, ''Paint it, White!'', everything that the ray from the Picto Alien's spaceship touches turns into a white, wobbly ''thing'' reminiscent of rubber. As it passes over cities and countries the world starts to resemble this Rubbery World.

* This happens twice in ''TheMatrix''.
