5The Turners' lives have been really boring as of late, so Timmy wishes that life could be more like an action movie, which ends up with a now-evil Jorgen kidnapping Cosmo and Wanda to absorb their energy.
6----
7! This episode contains examples of:
8* BodyHorror: The abducted fairy godparents become grossly emaciated as their magic is drained out of them before dissolving into dust. When all of the magic is taken out of Jorgen and returned to them, it results in him looking like a walking skeleton.
9-->'''Jorgen''': Aah! My muscles! My beautiful muscles!
10* CockADoodleDawn: A rooster greets each day. The first day, he's bored. The second day, he ends up in an explosion. The third time, he's relieved that there is no explosion.
11* ConspicuousCG: Parodied. The action movie sequences are chock-full of obvious 3D effects that clash with the show's normal 2D style.
12* DesignatedVillain: {{Invoked}}. Timmy's wish turns Jorgen into an out-and-out supervillain.
13* DrunkWithPower: Jorgen after he absorbed the magic of the captured fairies. Timmy even outright said he'd gone mad with power.
14* GratuitousNinja: As expected from an action movie.
15* HeelFaceTurn: Jorgen's cat, Mr. Tuliptoes, helps Timmy defeat Jorgen.
16* HighClassGlass: Jorgen wears a monocle as a villain.
17* HoistByHisOwnPetard: Mr Tuliptoes scratches at Jorgen's face. and while in his powered up state Jorgen's muscles are way too huge for him to pull the cat off.
18* IndyEscape: The final part of Timmy's wake up call.
19* InventionalWisdom: Timmy defeats Jorgen thanks to a reverse switch on his device.
20-->'''Jorgen:''' NO! Why did I put a reverse switch on it?!\
21'''Timmy:''' 'Cause this is MY movie!
22* ItsQuietTooQuiet: Timmy says then when he arrives at school. He's immediately attacked by ninjas.
23* JetPack: Timmy gets one. And so does Jorgen's RightHandCat.
24* MistreatmentInducedBetrayal: Jorgen's cat betrays him after he neglects it.
25* PermaStubble: Timmy gets this as part of his wish.
26* PowerParasite: Jorgen's plan is to steal every fairy's magic and transfer it to himself.
27* RightHandCat: Jorgen turns villain complete with a pet cat named Mr. Tuliptoes, who he accidentally abuses so much it does a HeelFaceTurn.
28* ShoutOut: Timmy watches an [[Film/DieHard action movie starring a protagonist named McCain]]. The movie Timmy's Dad thought they were watching was [[Film/AirBud "The boring dog who could shoot boring hoop."]]
29* ShowWithinAShow: ''Ryan [=McCain=]: Loose Cannon Cop'', the action movie Timmy watches.
30* SnakePit: Timmy is subjected to this as part of his wake up call.
31* SpikesOfDoom: Used with TheWallsAreClosingIn.
32* StuffBlowingUp: Thanks to Timmy's wish, stuff blows up, sometimes for no reason.
33* SuddenlyShouting: Mr. Turner does this in the action movie universe.
34-->'''Mr. Turner:''' Sports, ACTIONY! News, ACTIONY! Weather, HEY!\
35'''Timmy and Mrs. Turner:''' What?!\
36'''Mr. Turner:''' A 100% chance... OF ''ACTION!''
37* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: When Jorgen activates his machine that gives him more power it also causes his muscles to bulk up considerably. When Mr Tuliptoes betrays Jorgen and starts scratching his face, he finds he can’t reach his cat cause his muscles are so large he can’t even bend his arms.
38* ThisPageWillSelfDestruct: At breakfast, Timmy's dad slides a tape recorder across the table to tell his son to ''pass the butter'' before the obligatory "this message will self-destruct" line.
39* TheWallsAreClosingIn: The first thing that happens when Timmy wakes up in his new wish is being dumped into a pit with closing walls.
