| 1 | * Benedict's [[EvilGloating monologue]] near the end of the film: |
| 2 | -->'''Benedict''': (gun at the ready) Think of villains, Jack! You want Dracula? Drac''oo''la? Hang on. (pulls out ticket stub) ''I'll fetch him.'' Dracula? (scoff; puts stub away) I can get ''King Kong!'' (BLAM!) We'll have a nightmare with [[Franchise/ANightmareOnElmStreet Freddy Krueger]]! Have a surprise party for UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler! ''[[Film/SilenceOfTheLambs Hannibal Lecter]] can do the catering.'' And then we'll all have a christening for Film/RosemarysBaby! (BLAM!) All I have to do is snap my fingers and they'll be here! They're ''lining up'' to get here, and do you know ''why'' Jack? Should I ''tell you'' why? Hmm? Because here, in this world, ''the Bad Guys can win!'' |
| 3 | ** And again a second later, when the gun clicks empty: |
| 4 | --->'''Jack''': Did you make a movie mistake? [[BottomlessMagazines You forgot to reload the damn gun!]] |
| 5 | --->'''Benedict''': No, Jack. [[GenreSavvy I just left one chamber empty.]] |
| 6 | * And then one for Jack: |
| 7 | -->'''Jack''': [[PreMortemOneLiner No sequel for you.]] |
| 8 | * And earlier, him killing The Ripper again. |
| 9 | * Whitney as a character in general. [[ActionGirl She takes very much after her father]], wearing similar clothing (albeit more [[{{Fanservice}} fanservice-y]]) to him and having a passion for firearms. Later in the movie, when you think she's just the damsel in distress, she proves just how capable she is by taking out a mook and stealing his gun in ''seconds''. [[WhatCouldHaveBeen It makes you wonder just how cool the unaltered version of Jack Slater IV]] [[TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot would have been like with her as the designated sidekick.]] |
| 10 | * Jack wins a GameOfChicken even though he's in the real world because of AwesomeByAnalysis. He knew the model of ''his'' car had an airbag while his opponent's model didn't. |
| 11 | * Despite being a {{Parody}}, the stuntwork in the film is as good as any other action film, even though much of it is PlayedForLaughs. |
| 12 | * Danny's reaction to seeing the Grim Reaper himself seemingly come for Jack is to ''point Benedict's revolver at him'' and tell him that he can't take him. |
