** ''Film/Godzilla2014''. Considering it's a Godzilla movie, expect it to be everywhere.
*** One that stands out in particular is the realization by Serizawa and company that the female MUTO has awakened.
*** When the male MUTO sees Godzilla for the first time in Honolulu, he actually looks scared and promptly starts to flee.
*** Ford and Morales' first view of the Nevada MUTO indicates what the viewers were told earlier: she's female. The OhCrap comes from the fact that [[spoiler: she's heavily pregnant with thousands of active baby MUTO embryos. A lesser version occurs when they get to San Francisco and she oviposits the eggs in the nest, implying that even if the two are stopped, the world will be ''overrun'' with baby [=MUTOs=].]]
*** The principle moment of this is [[spoiler: When the [=FemMuto=] is mourning her lost babies...then sees Ford.]]

*** Kong has an expression that screams this multiple times during his first encounter with Godzilla, both because he recognizes to some degree how powerful Godzilla is, how disadvantaged he is with nothing but a few boats as footholds, and that Jia will be in great danger during the fight. It's notably the most frightened we've ever seen him look.
*** Maia Simmons has one when her HEAV is grabbed by Hong Kong directly after her pilot shot at Kong when she ordered him to in a blind panic. As Kong squints and glares with one eye in at her, you can see all over her face her realization of how royally fucked she is. Cue her UndignifiedDeath when she's crushed and blown up whilst stringing out a RapidFireNo.

Madison, Bernie and Josh can only back away from the window in terror as Simmons gradually twigs something is wrong, just before Mechagodzilla swats him into oblivion.

*** Towards the end, [[spoiler:upon witnessing the Kraken drag the ''Black Pearl'' into the sea along with Jack]], Jones' crew laments that "not even Jack Sparrow can best the devil". It's subtle due to his malformed appearance, but Jones' gaze lingers for a moment followed by quick glances back to the Dead Man's Chest that supposedly contains his heart. He comes to the conclusion that there is no way [[GuileHero a man like Jack Sparrow]] would go down without pulling one final trick. And upon checking inside the Chest and discovering it empty (actually because of Norrington stealing his heart), Jones lets out a SkywardScream cursing the fallen captain's name.
