* LargeHam: Invoked by El Segundo, who chastises his men for making their deaths look fake by being too hammy. [[TemptingFate He immediately gets a mortal wound]], and his real death is so hamtastic it makes Paul Reuben's death in ''Film/BuffyTheVampireSlayer'' quiet and reserved in comparison. His men applaud his "acting".
