--Trinity, ''TheMatrix'', [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome just before a point-blank headshot on an agent]]

You've SeenItAMillionTimes. We know this. But it's still a joy to watch.

A bad guy will taunt, cajole, or in some way try to deceive the good guy/s with [[PurpleProse big words, possibly flowery language]], or good ol' fashioned TrashTalk. But the good guy/s will have none of it. Instead, they'll snatch a word out of the enemy's tirade, tack a hard, defiant, "THIS!" to the end of it, and unload on their enemies.

Overlaps with ShutUpHannibal. Usually doubles as a FacingTheBulletsOneLiner, PreMortemOneLiner and/or PreAssKickingOneLiner as well. Can be someone's CrowningMomentOfAwesome if pulled off properly.

Compare ThisIsForEmphasisBitch and ThisIsSparta. Also, TalkToTheFist.

Examples:

[[AC:{{Anime and Manga}}]]
* CodeGeass R2: [[spoiler:In the last episode of the English dub, after Anya blows up his unique Knightmare and states "committing to memory", Jeremiah Gottwald yells "MEMORIZE THIS!!" as he jumps out of the Knightmare in a smaller Knightmare, and lands on her robot.]]

[[AC:{{Film}}]]
* Trinity in ''TheMatrix''. After watching an agent effortlessly dodge a hail of gunfire, she sneaks up behind him as he's preparing to finish Neo off, [[ClickHello puts the barrel of her pistol right up to his head]], and tells him to "Dodge ''this''" [[PreMortemOneLiner right before blowing his brains out at point blank range]]. He ''does'' dodge it, mind you, but [[BodySurf not in the traditional manner]]. His former host, on the other hand...
** A similar example occurred in the sequel, when Persephone asks Neo to kiss her, because she wants to "sample" the feeling of love again. Trinity responds with "Why don't you sample this instead?" and the gun comes out. Unlike the first example, however, she does not fire the gun.
** And then, in ''Revolutions'', the original scenario is repeated during the battle for Zion - Charra shoots the Huge Digger with a rocket launcher and "Dig this!"
* StarTrekFirstContact: "Assimilate ''this!''"
* ''AnalyzeThis''.
* ''{{Mortal Kombat}}'': Sonya vs. Kano:
-->'''Kano:''' Give it up, baby. I've studied all your moves.
-->'''Sonya:''' Oh yeah? Study THIS!
* ''TeamAmericaWorldPolice'': "Hey terrorist. Terrorize ''this''!"
* ''EvilDead II'': [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Meh6DIzHpgc "Swallow this."]]
* DieAnotherDay
-->Miranda Frost: I can read your every move!
-->Jinx: Read ''this''! ([[ImpaledWithExtremePrejudice pins a copy of The Art of War to her chest with a throwing knife]]) [[ThisIsForEmphasisBitch Bitch!]]
* ''{{Grease}}'' has a particularly nice example. While Rizzo is freaking out because [[spoiler: she thinks she might be pregnant]] we get this nice scene:
-->''Rizzo:'' Don't start with me!
-->''Kenickie:'' Alright fine, well how about I finish with you huh?
-->''Rizzo:'' Finish This! (throws milkshake in his face)
* Variation in ''{{Spaceballs}}'': The villain, at first just passive-aggressively sniping at his overly cautious underling, finally decides he's had enough:
-->''Colonel Sandurz:'' Sir, shouldn't you buckle up?
-->''Dark Helmet:'' Ah, buckle this! Ludicrous Speed, '''GO!'''
* ''{{Aliens}}'' When an alien is trying to open to doors to the APC:
-->''Hicks:''(inserts shotgun into mouth) Eat THIS!
* SoBadItsGood slasher flick, ''SilentNightDeadlyNight Part 2'' has the following exchange before Ricky dispatches Mother Superior with a fire axe.
--> ''Mother Superior:'' I am your Mother Superior! As I raised you from a child, I order you to drop that weapon and take your punishment!
--> ''Ricky:'' No more punishment!
--> ''Mother Superior:'' You are being very very naughty!"
--> ''Ricky:'' Naughty THIS!
* ''Film/IronMan 2'':
-->[[spoiler:'''Tony''': Iron Man doesn't need a sidekick.\\
'''Rhodey''': Sidekick this! ([[FridgeLogic punches]] him)]]
* TheScorpionKing: "Catch This!"

[[AC:Literature]]
* The {{Animorphs}} like using this one.
--> '''Marco:''' Negotiate ''this.'' * punches Visser Three in the face*
* In ''{{Halo}}: Fall of Reach'', Captain Keyes tries to destroy a Covenant stealth spaceship with archer missiles. After the missiles are defeated, he mutters "Try and jam this." before running his ship into the smaller craft.

[[AC:Comics]]
* Subverted in ''IronMan'' (v1) #279 - when Iron Man confronts the alien overlord Ronan the Accuser, his enemy at one point utters the perfect set-up line "None may defy the judgment of -" to which Iron Man responds with "Judge this!" and gives him all hell with his repulsors at full power (Normally enough to level, oh, a medium-sized office building). Unfortunately, this barely manages to make Ronan stagger a single step backwards, and he responds, seemingly even without sarcasm: "I find it... insufficient."


[[AC:LiveActionTV]]
* From the first episode of NYPDBlue: "Ipso ''this'', you prissy little bitch!"
* ''PowerRangersSPD,'' against a mirror-themed villain: "Reflect on ''this!''" [White Ranger smashes mirror, releasing trapped Rangers]
* During the climax of the {{Buffy the Vampire Slayer}} episode 'The Initiative', with "Contain ''this''!" and flare gun.
* ''DoctorWho'' in "The Time of Angels": an image that holds a weeping angel becomes itself an angel [[spoiler: and the one in the TV is starting to attack]]. Cue Amy's "hold this" along with the most epic use of a pause button ever.

[[AC: VideoGames]]
* Near the very end of ''DestroyAllHumans!'', just after Crypto has defeated Silhouette, she goes on about how Majestic is all over the world, and as long as Majestic exists, they will resist the Furon invasion. Crypto doesn't think so, and proceeds to stomp on the fatally wounded human, to finish her off.
--> '''Silhouette:''' We will continue to resist you!\\
'''Crypto:''' Resist ''this''. * squish*
* ''BanjoKazooie'''s successor Banjo Tooie.
-->'''Gruntilda:''' Revenge is mine, I cannot miss, let's see that furry fool dodge this!
* At the end of ''Headhunter: Redemption'', Leeza shouts "Compute this!" to the AI final boss, before delivering the CoupDeGrace.
* At least two random bits of dialogue in StarWarsBattlefront 2 qualify for this. Rebel soldiers sometimes tell the Imperials, who have gotten in the habit of calling them "Rebel scum" frequently, to "Rebel scum ''this!''", in a similar vein, Imperial Stormtroopers, when encountering Obi-wan, sometimes say "It's Obi-wan! Shall we put a disturbance in his Force?".
* In KingdomHearts 1, Sephiroth LOVES to say this. [[BossBanter Over. And over.]]


[[AC:WesternAnimation]]
* Coop from ''MegasXLR'', during his fight with the R.E.G.I.S. Mk. V, who [[WhyWontYouDie refused to stay down no matter how much Coop wailed on it]].
-->'''R.E.G.I.S. [=Mk.=] V''': [[AC:The R.E.G.I.S. Mk. V mocks your futile attempts at destroying it.]]\\

* Less heroic example: Cyborg from ''TeenTitans'', telling his robotic counterpart (he was disguised as "Stone" in order to [[TheMole infiltrate H.I.V.E. Academy]]) "[[CatchPhrase Booyah]] ''this!''"
** Can't forget Robin during the Apprentice arc. "MOTIVATE THIS!"
** Or Starfire when she saved her friends from the Cironielian Chrysalis Eater. "Devour THIS!"

-->'''WWWYZZERDD.com''': But it comes in this decorative tin!\\
'''Frylock''': Decorate ''this! (blasts tin out of WWWYZZERDD.com's hand with his laser eyes)''
* A spoof trailer for the sequel to ''ThePassionOfTheChrist'' in ''FamilyGuy'': "Passion Of The Christ 2: Crucify ''This!''"
* ''TheBatman vs. Dracula'' has Alfred essentially recreating the ''Matrix'' example by shooting Dracula in the head with Batman's vampirism-cure needles and saying, "Bite this!" It doesn't work.
* ''BeastWars'': In the series finale, we get the (arguably) CrowningMomentOfAwesome for the entire show when noble and semi-pacifistic Optimus Primal has had enough of Megatron's shit.
-->'''Megaton''': Oh well, come on, let's have it. The usual "destiny and honor" speech...
-->'''Optimus''': Speech this! * punch*
** It's less of a CMoA in hindsight when it turns out [[spoiler: that Megatron is actually a better fighter than Optimus and ends up beating him, despite receiving this punch at the beginning of the fight]].
* Spoofed in ReBoot's episode ''Firewall''.
-->'''[[PlayerCharacter PC]] Santa Claus''' : Ho ho ho !
-->'''Killer snowman Enzo''' : Hohoho this !

[[AC:{{Real Life}}]]
* The program '''Hijack This''' has an appropriate title as a response to computer hijackers.
