24* ''WesternAnimation/TheLionKing1994'':

28* ''WesternAnimation/TheNightmareBeforeChristmas'':
29** [[OurDemonsAreDifferent Bone-Demon]]: Jack and any fan-made skeletons like him. Understood to be a sort of sub-species of either [[TheUndead Undead]] or demon. Usually used in the camp that thinks Jack and Sally have kids by natural means.
30** Dr. Finkly: Dr. Finklestein, by his fans.
31** Jewel: Dr. Finklestein creation/wife seen at the end of the movie. While there's no evidence that Finklestein's "Be careful, my precious jewel!" is a reference to her name, the fans use it anyways.
32** Skeledoll: The name of Jack and Sally's fandom [[AlwaysFemale daughters]]. Can be either just ragdolls with bones or [[PatchworkKids a mixture of ragdoll and skeleton]].
33** Spiral Hill: The hill where Jack gets his first song and where Jack and Sally have their [[TheBigDamnKiss Big Damn Kiss]]. ''Franchise/KingdomHearts'' calls it "Curly Hill", but if [[http://forum.tnbc.eu/viewtopic.php?t=2362 this poll is any indication]], fans massively prefer "Spiral".
34* ''WesternAnimation/PenguinsOfMadagascar'':
35** Classified has been called Classy by many fans.
36** Corp for Corporal. It isn't as popular as many other nicknames, but it still counts.
37* ''WesternAnimation/TheSecretOfNIMH'': Mrs. Brisby's unstated first name is "Elizabeth" in {{fanon}}. This is usually a tribute to her voice actress, who committed suicide not long after. To others, it's not just because she was voiced by Elizabeth Hartman; to them, she just looks and sounds like an 'Elizabeth'.
38* ''WesternAnimation/TheSuperMarioBrosMovie'':
39** The full title of the movie tends to get dropped and be referred to more as "the ''Mario'' movie" or the "''Super Mario'' movie" instead.
40** Due to some confusion regarding Lumalee calling Luigi "fresh meat for the grinder" in the trailers -- apparently, the line was one of the few that was [[LostInTranslation localized poorly]], translating the literal words without regard for their figurative meaning -- the Japanese audience has taken to using it as an actual nickname for Luigi.
41** As the Mario bros' little cousin is [[NoNameGiven one of several family members who goes unnamed]], quite a few fans have taken to calling her Marilyn after their niece from the ''Series/TheSuperMarioBrosSuperShow''.

49* ''WesternAnimation/RalphBreaksTheInternet'':
50** The heavy use of meta-humor in the film (especially in the trailers) has lead to fans calling the movie "Ralph Breaks the Fourth Wall".
51** Mona: The little girl who has the misfortune to see Ralph [[BalloonBelly stuff a cartoon bunny]] from the tablet game she's playing [[PopGoesTheHuman to the bursting point]], due to her character design basically being borrowed from the toddler version of Moana. [[spoiler: In the actual movie, the scene shows up as a mid-credits stinger, and the girl's mother addresses her as "Mo".]]

58* ''Franchise/{{Alien}}''
59** ''Film/{{Alien 3}}'' tends to be jokingly referred to as ''Alien Cubed'' among the fandom due to the inexplicable superscript use of the number 3 in the movie's title.
60** Space Jockey - the alien pilot aboard the derelict ship -- extended to the rest of his race, as well. Derived from a name used by the film crew; in the canon, it's never named. (in ''Film/{{Prometheus}}'', it's [[AncientAstronauts "Engineer"]])
61** Xenomorph - Used once, among many other words, to describe the aliens in the franchise, this word stuck as the standard term used by fans. [[note]] In its original context, the word simply meant "life-form from a foreign environment" (from "xeno" meaning "foreign", and "morph" meaning "shape"), though in RealLife it's actually [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xenomorph_(geology) a geological term]] for a mineral that doesn't crystallize in the standard form because of external factors.[[/note]]
62*** As a matter of fact, none of the life cycle stages (i.e. Facehugger, Chestburster, Drone) were ever officially named. They were given Fan Nicknames which simply stuck.

73** Wallet Guy - The guy in ''[[Film/BackToTheFuturePartII Part II]]'' that tells Biff where Marty went after Marty knocks Biff out. Called 'CPR Guy' in the script (since he asked Marty what CPR is after he mentions it, [[DontExplainTheJoke CPR not having been invented in 1955]]) but he says he thinks Marty took Biff's wallet at least three times in his scene.
74** Hell Valley: [[{{Dystopia}} The Hill Valley]] [[CrapsackWorld of 1985-A]], thanks to [[SignsOfDisrepair a vandalized sign]] that Marty comes across. The ProductionNickname was "Biffhorrific 1985".

87** Commissioner Atkins- Comissioner Loeb, again, after a comic character who looked and acted more like the movie character than the comic version of Loeb.
88** Baconface- Twoface, as this incarnation of the villain is extra-crispy.
89** Creator/{{Maggie|Gyllenhaal}} [[Music/DavidBowie Bowie]], after her [[{{Bifauxnen}} outfit]] in that one interrogation scene.
90** [[Franchise/StarWars Darth]] [[Creator/SeanConnery Connery]]- Bane, because he sounds like Darth Vader if he was voiced by Creator/SeanConnery, and apparently resembles [[VideoGame/KnightsOfTheOldRepublic Darth Malak]].

92** The Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse's Batman: [[Creator/BenAffleck Batfleck]].

107** Mr. Grumpypants or MGP - the unofficial name given the monster by [[http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/ Unfiction forum members]] during the Cloverfield ARG/viral marketing campaign.

117** ''Film/{{Justice League|2017}}'' and ''Film/ZackSnydersJusticeLeague'':

120*** Gary the Parademon: The Parademon in the Snyder Cut who [[spoiler:averts ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy and lands a hit on the Flash's leg]].

128* ''Film/DraculaUntold'': It's being widely refered to as "[[VideoGame/CastlevaniaLordsOfShadow Castlevania: Lords of Shadow]] TheMovie."
129* ''Film/Drive2011'':
130** ''Creator/RyanGosling's Franchise/{{Batman}} Audition''
131** Alternatively ''Creator/RyanGosling's ComicBook/ThePunisher Audition'' on account of all the lethal brutality on display.
132* ''Film/{{Elysium}}'': The production team and Neill calls the Exosuit the "Hulk Suit" because it grants the user immense physical strength.
133** In the production art for the Exosuit, It's spelt "HULC Suit". HULC is short for Human Universal Load Carrier. Its the name of the powered exoskeleton system being produced by Lockheed Martin. In the featurette, The Tech of Elysium, Neill Blokamp describes how the exosuit is based upon technology being developed by the US Military.
134* ''Film/{{Eraserhead}}'':
135** Spike - [[BodyHorror the baby]].
136* ''Film/FantasticFour2015''
137** "[=Fant4stic=]", pronounced "Fant-Four-Stick", due to the stylized logo
138** "FFINO" or "'"Fantastic Four'' InNameOnly" due to how poorly it adapted the franchise to the big screen.
139** Dr. Doom got a ''lot'' of nicknames:
140*** "Blogger Doom", "Doomblogger", "Doctor Domashev", and even "Blogger Domashev", all to describe Doom's original idea as an Internet blogger and his changed name
141*** "Trash Test Dummy" to mock his final look, which made him look like a Crash Test Dummy wearing trashbags.

146* ''Film/{{Gerry}}'': [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 Deep Hurting]]: TheMovie. If you've seen it, you know why...
147* ''Franchise/{{Ghostbusters}}'':
148** "Spook Central": 55 Central Park West, the NYC apartment building featured as Dana Barrett and Louis Tully's apartment building and Gozer's temple, derived from Ray Stanz's nickname for the place during his discussion about its significance in attracting paranormal and supernatural phenomena.

150** The Big G, The Big Guy, Goji, or Goji-san - The Japanese Godzilla
151** Cozzilla and Psychedelic Godzilla for the version seen in ''Film/ItalianGodzillaKingOfTheMonsters'', the former due to this version being made by Luigi Cozzi, the latter thanks to the film's funky colorization and hodge podge {{Recut}}.
152** “Mosu” as a term of endearment for Mothra (an abbreviation of her Japanese name, ''Mosura'').
153** After its use in ''FanFic/TheBridge'', some fans have taken to calling Spacegodzilla 'Xenilla'. In a way it is [[FridgeBrilliance still saying the canon name]] as "Xeno" means “space or alien” in Ancient Greek, and "-illa" is derived from Godzilla. Just sounds [[RuleOfCool cooler]] ([[{{Narm}} and less cheesy]]) to some.
154** GINO (Godzilla InNameOnly) - The American version from the [[Film/{{Godzilla 1998}} 1998 film]] (Toho would later rename and rebrand him as "Zilla".) The film itself is often called "Deanzilla".
155** Maguro-san (Mr. Tuna) - a nickname given to Zilla by the Japanese fanbase because of a line in ''Film/GodzillaFinalWars''. Where Zilla is referred to as a "tuna eating monster" (tuna head in the english dub) by The Controller of Planet X.
156** The Airplane Toilet - Derogatory nickname for the [[Film/GodzillaVsMechagodzillaII 90's Mechagodzilla]] resulting from a Godzilla forum member's frustrations at one of its victories in a [[SeriousBusiness fantasy monster fight tournament held annually on the board]].
157** Burning Godzilla, because our guy [[SuperpowerMeltdown wasn't looking well]] in ''Film/GodzillaVsDestoroyah''.
158** [[Franchise/DragonBall Gokuzilla]], [[Creator/ChuckNorris Norriszilla]] - The ''[[Film/GodzillaFinalWars Final Wars]]'' incarnation of Godzilla as a result of how overpowered he is.
159** “Radon” for the female Rodan in Film/{{Rodan}}, to [[OneSteveLimit set her apart from her mate]]. Doesn’t come up all that much, though, since she only appears in that one film, then [[spoiler: she [[KilledOffForReal dies]], and]] is [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome never mentioned again in that continuity]], [[AdaptedOut nor has she ever been adapted into another]].
160** "Vishnu" for the giant centipede in the teaser trailer of Film/Godzilla2014, named after the part of the Oppenheimer quote that plays over its shot in the teaser trailer. A rumour on the internet was that Talaghan was its official name, but this was proven untrue.
161** While the [=MUTOs=] aren't given individual names in the films, fans refer to the male one as "Hokmuto" (for being discovered in Hokkaido in an early draft of the script) and refer the female one as "Femuto" (for obvious reasons) based on script rumours.
162** Other members of the [=MUTO=] species have also gotten stuck with this to a somewhat lesser degree:
163*** The older, [[CrownOfHorns spikier]] female [[ContinuityCameo seen in]] [[Film/GodzillaKingOfTheMonsters2019 KOTM]] is referred to either as "Barbmuto" (or just Barb) after her nickname during production, or as "Bosmuto" because the scene where we first get a good look at her is set in Boston, Massachusetts.
164*** Primuto, for MUTO Prime from the tie-in graphic novels, though her full name and her scientific name (Jishin-Mushi, Japanese for [[MeaningfulName "earthquake-beetle"]]) are used just as frequently.
165** "[[CrossesTheLineTwice Cabinet Resigning Beam]]" for Godzilla's atomic breath in ''Film/ShinGodzilla'', due to his first use of it killing the Japanese prime minister and his cabinet.
166* ''Film/TheGreatSilence'': "The Great Violence", for being so nihlistic, DownerEnding and all.
167* ''Film/GreenLantern2011'': ''[[Film/StarTrekTheMotionPicture Green Lantern: The Motion Picture]]'', due to the movie being seen as boring and flashy, and the ending, which suggests that the sequel, if there is one, will be more like ''[[Film/StarTrekIITheWrathOfKhan Green Lantern II: The Wrath of Sinestro]]''.
168* ''Gwoemul'' (called ''Film/TheHost2006'' in English dub):
169** "Creator/SteveBuscemi" - The special effects crew's nickname for the anonymous monster. The reasons why are intensely obvious to anyone who's seen the movie.
170* ''Franchise/{{Halloween}}'':
171** ''Halloween Water'': ''Film/{{Halloween H20|Twenty Years Later}}''
172* ''Franchise/{{Hellraiser}}'': The character who came to be known as Pinhead was unnamed in the first film, and listed in the credits simply as "Lead Cenobite." The name "Pinhead" was coined by the makeup crew and does not appear in the dialogue until the third movie.
173* ''Franchise/{{Highlander}}'':
174** ''Highlander: The Sickening'', for ''Film/HighlanderIITheQuickening''.
175** ''Highlander: Final Dementia'' for ''[[Film/HighlanderIIITheSorcerer Final Dimension]]''.
176** ''Highlander: The Blortch'', for ''Film/HighlanderTheSource''. (Because Blortch is the noise you make when you throw up, and it's worse than the Sickening.)
177** ''Highlander: The Sauce'', for ''The Source''.
178** Ever since [[WebVideo/TheSpoonyExperiment Spoony's]] review of ''Highlander II'', some people have started referring to General Katana's goggled, cackling henchmen as "The Insano Brothers"
179* ''{{Film/The Hobbit}}'' gives us...
180** Smauglock; Creator/BenedictCumberbatch's Smaug seems to enjoy [[{{Series/Sherlock}} psychologically analyzing]] [[Creator/MartinFreeman Bilbo]] [[IWantYouToMeetAnOldFriendOfMine much]], [[ActorAllusion much]] more than the original dragon.
181** Party King Thranduil and his mighty steed, the Party Elk.
182** Alternatively, Randy Thrandy
183* ''Film/TheHungerGames'':
184** President Snow, played by a very white-haired and bearded Creator/DonaldSutherland, is often known as President Santa Claus, or Evil Santa.
185* ''Film/IndependenceDay'': The forum alternatehistory.com uses the term Acrids (after the scientific word for beetle) to refer to the aliens.
186* ''Film/InglouriousBasterds'': Sergeant Bitchface, Sergeant Pitbull: Sergeant Hugo Stiglitz
187* Film/JamesBond:
188** Ursula Undress - Creator/UrsulaAndress. If you've ever seen ''Film/DrNo'', you'll know why.
189** Most of the films are often referred to by their acronyms, i.e. TLD for ''Film/TheLivingDaylights''. More amusingly, this is why ''Film/TheWorldIsNotEnough'' is sometimes referred to as ''Twine''.
190** Wet Nellie - Bond's [[CoolCar Lotus Espirit]] from ''Film/TheSpyWhoLovedMe'', which turns into a submersible (named after Little Nellie, Bond's gyrocopter from ''Film/YouOnlyLiveTwice'').
191** James Bond Island - Khao Phing Kan, the Thai island which served as the site of Scaramanga's island home in ''Film/TheManWithTheGoldenGun'', [[TouristBump and has since become a popular tourist attraction thanks to the film]].
192* ''Film/{{Jaws}}'': Bruce - the shark, which the crew nicknamed after Spielberg's lawyer.
193* ''Film/JupiterAscending'': Some have taken to call it ''[[Series/That70sShow That 3070's Show]]'', considering Creator/MilaKunis is in the lead role.
194* ''Franchise/JurassicPark'':
195** Clever Girl - Nickname for the [[BigBad antagonistic lead raptor]], due to [[GreatWhiteHunter Muldoon]] referring to her as such after she [[WorthyOpponent outwits him]].
196** Hock-a-loogie-saurus - Nickname for the Dilophosaurs, also known as ''spitters'', for their ability to spit a loogie of paralyzing poison at its victims.
197** Chickensaurus - Nickname for dinosaurs of species Gallimimus, since that term roughly translates from scientific latin as "Chicken Imitator".
198** Munchenaries - Nickname for the ''Mercenaries'' hired by William H. Macy and Tea Leoni's characters in [[Film/JurassicParkIII the third movie]], due to their tendency to be eaten by dinos.
199** Raptor Lord - For Creator/{{Chris Pratt}}'s character, [[FluffyTamer Owen Grady]], in ''Film/JurassicWorld'' due to Pratt's previous role as Star-Lord in ''Film/GuardiansOfTheGalaxy2014''.
200** Jurassic Parks and Recreation - Nickname for ''Film/JurassicWorld'', merging this title with that of ''Series/ParksAndRecreation'', again due to Chris Pratt's involvement with both works.
201** Tickle chicken: The ''Therizinosaurus'' in ''Film/JurassicWorldDominion'' because it has feathers and extremely long hand claws.
202* ''Film/{{Labyrinth}}'':
203** The Area - Music/DavidBowie's crotch.
204** Magic Pants: Jareth for the same reason.
205* ''Film/TheLastAirbender'':
206** Ong, Ung, Ahng, Oong - Movie!Aang, as opposed to series!Aang. The movie changes the pronunciation to (supposedly) be more faithful to the East Asian roots of character names. Some fans of the series would have preferred sticking to the source material over realism in a film where people can shoot fire out of their freaking hands (not that they can do so unassisted in the move anyway, though that's really neither here nor there).
207** Sowka, Soaka, Eero, Eeroh - Sokka, Iroh, etc. Listen, they're going to be at this for a while. We'll get back to you.
208*** Devko and Peltztara too, because while their characters' names weren't mispronounced, they needed scornful nicknames anyway.
209** Failbender, The Last Shitbender - The movie itself.
210** Racebending - The collective name for the numerous {{Race Lift}}s that occurred. In the original series, almost all of the characters were [[FantasyCounterpartCulture fantasy equivalents of East Asians or Inuits]]. In the movie, however, the heroes were mostly played by white actors, while the characters from the villainous Fire Nation were mostly played by dark-skinned actors.
211** The Pebble Dance- the name for one particularly egregious moment of FightSceneFailure during the earthbenders' escape from prison. Six of them perform a kata in perfect harmony- in order for a rock the size of a man's head to float gently by. A ''seventh'' earthbender is needed to actually launch the rock at someone.
212* ''Film/TheLordOfTheRings'':
213** Agent Elrond - Creator/HugoWeaving's portrayal of Elrond the Elf Lord, which was remarkably similar to his Agent Smith portrayal in the ''[[Film/TheMatrix Matrix]]'' trilogy.

215--->'''Agent Elrond''': What good is a ring, Mr. Sauron, if you do not have any fingers?
216--->'''Agent Elrond''': I'd like to share a revelation that I've had during my time here. It came to me when I tried to classify your species. I realized that you're not actually mammals. Every mammal in Middle-Earth instinctively develops a natural equilibrium with the surrounding environment, but you Orcs do not. You move to an area, and you multiply, and multiply, until every natural resource is consumed.

220** Figwit - [[Music/FlightOfTheConchords Brett McKenzie's]] minor, yet [[EnsembleDarkhorse absurdly]] [[OneSceneWonder popular]] character that shows up in the Council of Elrond.

235*** "Capsicle" for Steve after Tony refers to him as such.
236** ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'':
237*** [[Film/KickAss Quick-Ass]] for Quicksilver.
238*** He also gets Quickslav/Slavsilver, since his accent is one of the biggest differences from the [[Film/XMenDaysOfFuturePast DOFP]] version, and his overall character design and demeanor resembling [[http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/why-do-slavs-squat-slav-squat memetic stereotypes about young Eastern European men]].
239*** Gothtits: Scarlet Witch, for, [[MostCommonSuperpower well...]]
240** ''Film/AvengersEndgame'':

248** ''Film/BlackPanther2018'':
249*** Killmonger is sometimes nicknamed "Golden Jaguar" after [[spoiler:he seizes the throne]], because his [[spoiler:panther-suit in the final battle has a gold tinge]].

264*** "Irondad" and "Spiderson" for Tony Stark and Peter Parker respectively, in reference to the father-son/mentor-mentee dynamic between the two heroes.
265** ''Film/DoctorStrangeInTheMultiverseOfMadness'': The film features an evil book, demonic possession, and a campy horror infused tone. This made several viewers, Raimi fans especially, call the film ''[[Series/AshVsEvilDead Doctor Strange vs The Evil Dead]]''. Some even consider it a more fitting title than ''Multiverse of Madness''.
266** ''Film/ThorLoveAndThunder'':
267*** "Atheist Bale" for Gorr the God Butcher, since he, a man whose motivation is to kill all gods, is played by [[Creator/ChristianBale an actor]] who just so happens to share a name with the largest religion in the world.
268* ''Film/TheMatrixRevolutions'': Super Burly Brawl - The final battle between Neo and Smith. Less commonly, this fight is called the ''Anime/DragonBallZ'' rip-off for it similarity to the fight between Goku and Frieza.

He was identified by this name in ''[[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanOnStrangerTides On Stranger Tides]]''.

286** Bleeders tend to mistakenly be called Screamers.
287* ''Film/ThePrestige'':
288** ''Batman vs. Wolverine'' - the movie itself due to being one of the most [[MemeticMutation memetic]] examples of Role Association in recent history. Likewise, nobody refers to the characters by their names. ''Ever''. Instead, Borden is Franchise/{{Batman}}, Angier is ComicBook/{{Wolverine}}, Cutter is [[Franchise/{{Batman}} Alfred]], Alley is [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings Gollum]], and UsefulNotes/NikolaTesla is [[Film/{{Labyrinth}} Jareth the Goblin King]].
289* ''Film/RealSteel''
