** In ''Film/DrNo'', one of the bad guys is sent to kill Bond, but Bond makes it look like he's lying in bed asleep, and the assassin shoots the bed six times before Bond reveals himself. The bad guy drops his gun, and Bond politely interrogates him as he lowers his guard momentarily to light a cigarette. The bad guy quickly picks his gun back up and attempts to shoot Bond. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=btjBvrly2aI Just watch the scene for yourself to see Bond's sheer awesomeness.]]

* ''Film/{{Hellboy}}'' during his fight with the demon dogs in the first movie, says this, where upon he knocks the thing around by its tongue.

-->'''Deadshot:''' "You've got one shot. Make it count."
-->''BLAM'' ({{mook}} shoots and misses)
-->'''Deadshot:''' "That didn't count."

** Actually said by Comicbook/{{Wolverine}} at the ending of [[http://dailypop.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/uncanny-x-men-132-pic1-wolverine.jpg Uncanny X-Men #132]]. That line and the issue that follows are widely considered a CrowningMomentOfAwesome for Logan.

* Used by Clark Kent in the ''Series/{{Smallville}}'' episode "Combat", before unleashing a [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome hellacious beating on the superpowered killer, Titan]].

* This occurs in an episode of ''WesternAnimation/StaticShock'' when SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker, Franchise/{{Batman}} and Robin make an appearance. After the Joker is foiled and lying prone on the ground, he calls out for Batman to help, and shocks the hand offered him. Virgil kindly repays the favor with extreme prejudice, after saying, "That looks fun! Let me try..."

** After the ''Normandy'' is [[CurbStompBattle lost]] during the prologue of ''VideoGame/MassEffect2'', a fully-upgraded ''Normandy SR-2'' can avenge her fallen predecessor during the finale mission, by taking out the Collector vessel in just '''two''' shots, all while [[LightningBruiser easily dodging]] their frantic attempts to return fire.

* {{Defied|Trope}} in ''Manga/DigimonVTamer01'' after Gekovitch take it upon himself to remove Taichi from the Digimon World and fails. [[BigGood Lord HolyAngemon]] himself steps as soon as "Our turn!" is spoken, putting an end to the violence in his palace.

** ComicBook/KittyPryde gets an homage to this - same panel, same line - during Creator/JossWhedon's run on ''Astonishing ComicBook/{{X-Men}}'', after the Hellfire Club take down the rest of the team leaving her to go up against them on her own.

* ''WesternAnimation/ScoobyDoo'': In "Bedlam In The Big Top," Shaggy uses the test-your-strength machine. After he does:
-->'''Scooby:''' Ry rurn.\\
'''Shaggy:''' ''Your'' turn? Let me outta the way!

** Then there's [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption Thessia]] in ''VideoGame/MassEffect2''. After the brief battle with Kai Leng in the temple, in which you take down his shields, the cutscene shows Shepard unleashing a barrage of bullets at him that would have at least severely wounded any other enemy, but which he easily deflects with his biotics. His counterattack? Call his gunship: "Target the supports." [[OhCrap The look on Shepard's face]] says it all.

* ''Super PunchOut'':

** Then there's [[FailureIsTheOnlyOption Thessia]] in the third game. After the brief battle with Kai Leng in the temple, in which you take down his shields, the cutscene shows Shepard unleashing a barrage of bullets at him that would have at least severely wounded any other enemy, but which he easily deflects with his biotics. His counterattack? Call his gunship: "Target the supports." [[OhCrap The look on Shepard's face]] says it all.

* In ''Franchise/DragonBall:'' In one corner: [[{{Muggles}} The entire Royal Military]], in the other corner: [[Characters/DragonBallCell Cell]] standing atop a plateau. The Royal military unleash ''everything'' they have, creating an enormous SmokeShield. After pretty much demolishing the plateau through sheer firepower, the command is given to cease fire. After the smoke clears, Cell is unharmed, still floating where he was standing before the plateau got blown apart. As the Royal Military stands there in disbelief, some uttering 'but NoOneCouldSurviveThat', Cell gives the following line before blowing the entire military up in a single blast:
--> '''Cell:''' "''Judging by your silence I'd say it's'' my ''turn now.''"

* ''Uncanny X-Men'':

* Used in ''SuperMarioBrosZ'' when Axem Red blasts Mecha Sonic with a giant laser, doing no damage.

* Inverted: An Al Brodax {{Popeye}} cartoon has Popeye telling of his prehistoric ancestor, who in one scene is engaged in a fight with a prehistoric Brutus.

* Tony Stark does this with his first suit in ''Film/IronMan'' - minus the "now" and "it's". [[spoiler:Granted, he doesn't exactly come out unscathed, but he still manages to kick some ''serious'' terrorist ass before bailing.]]

But wait! The hero's just fine! In fact, that just gave him more confidence. Grinning, he says something like "Now it's my turn!" and proceeds to unleash an even more powerful attack and save the day. Might cue a "WhyWontYouDie" from the villain.

** Kitty Pryde gets an homage to this - same panel, same line - during Creator/JossWhedon's run on ''Astonishing ComicBook/{{X-Men}}'', after the Hellfire Club take down the rest of the team leaving her to go up against them on her own.

* In ''The Principal'', Victor Duncan seems to be beating Rick Latimer during their [[GoodOldFisticuffs final fistfight]], till Rick catches one of Victor's punches in his hand and says, "My turn."

%%%* OlderThanRadio: Parson Adams in Henry Fielding's ''Joseph Andrews''.

* In ''Franchise/DragonBall:'' In one corner: [[{{Muggles}} The entire Royal Military]], in the other corner: [[Characters/DragonBallCell Cell]] standing atop a plateu. The Royal military unleash ''everything'' they have, creating an enormous SmokeShield. After pretty much demolishing the plateu through sheer firepower, the command is given to cease fire. After the smoke clears, Cell is unharmed, still floating where he was standing before the plateu got blown apart. As the Royal Military stands there in disbelief, some uttering 'but NoOneCouldSurviveThat', Cell gives the following line before blowing the entire military up in a single blast:
