[[caption-width-right:350:[[{{Transformers}} Arcee]] is [[http://www.lilformers.com/index.php/2006/08/07/lil-formers-3-arcee/ certainly not doing]] some cheap {{fanservice}}, thank you very much.]]

* ''BlackOrchid'' defies the same trope as ''{{Austin Powers}}'' below, except that the {{Mook}} really ''does'' [[NoNonsenseNemesis shoot the main character in the head]]. He doesn't know that [[GoodThingYouCanHeal she can regenerate]], but he [[KillItWithFire sets her on fire]] to be absolutely certain she's {{Deader Than Dead}}. Given this is [[DecoyProtagonist on the second page]], it's a good thing {{Mes A Crowd}} . .

* Dave from ''{{Homestuck}}'' does not approve of tired cinematic cliches.
--> '''TG''': just once id like to see dad crap his pants when a kid says theres a vampire in his closet
--> '''TG''': "OH SHIT EVERYONE IN THE MINIVAN"
--> '''TG''': be fuckin dad of the year right there

** [[Unfortunately for Wheatly, he failed to defy the final CrowningMomentOfAwesome trope: Chell opening a portal right under him, with the other side on the surface of the moon.]]

* Mixing this up a bit with MemeticBadass, there's an LJ icon with [[FanNickname Spy Daddy]] from ''{{Alias}}'' that reads, "I am five steps ahead of you. I kill you in step four."

[[caption-width-right:350:She is certainly not doing some cheap {{fanservice}}, thank you very much.]]

'''Harry Block''': "I've seen this movie; the BlackDudeDiesFirst. You snag it."

* Capcom openly defied NoExportForYou when they worked to clear the legal hurdles and get ''TatsunokoVsCapcom'' localized overseas.

* [[http://thatfellowinthecoat.com/somejerkcaptaineo.php Part two of this video]] on ''MrCoatAndFriends'' defied PreviouslyOn, noting that it was on the internet, and we could just watch part one.

* An episode of the ''Series/EarthwormJim'' cartoon almost ends with a "HereWeGoAgain" ending (actually called that) after a ResetButton of the episode's events. Jim won't stand for it, and just [[DropTheCow drops a cow]] on the villain before he can enact his scheme again.

-> '''The Master''': Now then, Doctor! Ooh! New voice! ... Anyway, why don't we stop and have a nice little chat where I tell you all my plans and you can work out a way to stop me -- [[{{NOT}} I]] ''[[{{NOT}} don't]]'' [[{{NOT}} think]]!

* ''DoctorWho'', "Utopia":

-->-- '''''Film/{{Evolution}}'''''

* ''BlackOrchid'' defies the same trope as {{Austin Powers}} below, except that the {{Mook}} really ''does'' [[WhyDontYaJustShootHim shoot the main character in the head]]. He doesn't know that [[GoodThingYouCanHeal she can regenerate]], but he [[KillItWithFire sets her on fire]] to be absolutely certain she's {{Deader Than Dead}}. Given this is [[DecoyProtagonist on the second page]], it's a good thing {{Mes A Crowd}} . .

* ''AustinPowers'', the TropeNamer for WhyDontYaJustShootHim. Dr Evil has captured Austin and wants to place him in "an easily escapable situation involving an overly elaborate and exotic death" (Dr. Evil's words), and his son Scott wonders why they can't just shoot him. Despite Scott's best efforts, Dr Evil's ContractualGenreBlindness prevails, and Austin predictably escapes from the [[SharkPool pool of mutated sea bass]] that he's suspended over.

* When ''FinalFantasyVII'' was still in the storyline stage, the game initially had only three characters: Cloud, Aerith, and Barret. So, instead of [[BlackDudeDiesFirst killing Barret,]] [[WordOfGod Sakaguchi and Nomura]] decided to TakeAThirdOption since that was already overused and wouldn't have enough impact on the player. [[InternetBackdraft Guess what]] [[KillTheCutie happened]].

* In [[AtopTheFourthWall Linkara's]] "Extreme Super Christmas Special #1" review, the ghosts from AChristmasCarol show up. Linkara flatly tells them that he does not want to make a YetAnotherChristmasCarol, and tells them to promptly GTFO.

-->-- '''''{{Evolution}}'''''

* Johan Liebert from ''{{Anime/Monster}}'' defies the trope of being ObviouslyEvil, and on the surface, he seems like a really nice guy.
