He's rich. He probably just made a couple of phonecalls and was on the next plane to the US from vaguely Middle Eastern prison country.

Batman can actually teleport and just pretends he has no super powers. That's how he disappears when people look the other way while talking to him.

The shot of Marv as a skeleton in Home Alone 2 terrified me as a kid and it's still unnerving. Same thing with the shots with the skeletons and John Candy as the devil in Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. The latter was even scarier because you're not exactly expecting outright surrealism out of nowhere.

This scene from the original Transformers movie: The entire movie is played straight with regards to animation humor. The scene in the movie where that is from, the heroes are literally dying, and there's just this comedic visual gag jammed in and completely tone deaf. There's nothing like it for the rest of the movie, and I've never heard an explanation for why it's there. My head cannon for why is that some animator is insistent on doing it despite everyone objecting, does it anyways, and they have to use it because he's some c-level's nephew.

The spider is a visual metaphor showing up throughout the movie representing Gyllenhaal's paranoia and fear of women.

Gummo is insane, brutal, dark, off putting, disgusting and filty and for some reason I'm captivated by it. First time I saw it, I legit thought it was a weird documentary. I didn't even touch on the spaghetti in the filthy bathtub scene. The gently caress is that movie anyway? I've actually felt DIRTY every time I've watched it. Whole god damned film is WTF.

It's one of few movies I've turned off and not completed, because of how unpleasant the entire atmosphere is. The gross bathtub scene didn't help. I just didn't want to be there anymore after a while, and didn't care about how it ended. I like some Harmony Korine movies. But ugh. Not Gummo.

One of my favorite things about Gummo is that Werner Herzeg loves it, because that makes total sense: “When I saw a piece of fried bacon fixed to the bathroom wall in Gummo, it knocked me off my chair. [Korine's] a very clear voice of a generation of filmmakers that is taking a new position. It's not going to dominate world cinema, but so what?"

"Serious" cartoon movies weren't a thing in the 80s, it was done for the same reason everyone makes friends later over Weird Al's Dare to be Stupid: to remind kids that it was a cartoon and that no one was actually hurt in the lead up to them killing off Optimus Prime. It's condescending and dumb but it was done with reasonably good intentions. It worked so well (not at all) that taking a two inch snake to the heart in GI Joe only put Duke into a coma (he got better during the end credits).

It's condescending and dumb but it was done with reasonably good intentions. to be honest, it's entirely likely the MPAA or the studio forced that bit in because the scene was "too dark" otherwise, rather than it really being anything the writers or animators did willingly. The Land Before Time got hosed with similarly; the scene with the random old dinosaur Littlefoot talks to after his mom dies was something the studio forced Don Bluth to add, because test screenings went horribly and child psychologists were leaning on them pretty hard.

The people making Transformers: The Movie legitimately had no idea that the death of Optimus Prime (and the others, for that matter) would be so shocking to kids. They just thought of it as getting rid of some toys to make room for new toys. The backlash was such that A) video versions of the movie added a little epilogue promising, among other things, that "Optimus Prime will return!" and B) the G. I. Joe movie was supposed to have lead character Duke get killed, but instead he gets put in a coma, utters a deliberately goofy "Yo, Joe" when he gets hit, and at the end they announce that he's gonna be okay too. So the tonal clash is probably just because they had no idea anyone would take the deaths of the robots seriously.

As I recall, Duke very obviously dies, everyone else is reacting appropriately as if their friend, mentor and commanding officer had just been killed in front of them, then either Scarlett or Lady Jaye is conveniently seen from behind and says, "He's gone into a coma!"

Then after they beat the bad guys, they show a bunch of close-ups of the Joes and pause the animation on the victory celebration while having someone say, "Guys! Duke came out of his coma!" It's like an awkward version of that, "Wait a minute! You didn't learn how World War II ended!" gag from the Simpsons.
