5 Throwaway Movie Gags With Disturbing Implications

Filmmakers are like the most annoying guy at the party — they love to throw out little jokes without considering the deeper implications of what they’re saying. They think they’re just having a good time, but we all know that they’ve revealed something much darker than they intended to. Like when…

A Depraved Serial Killer Walked Free at the End of ‘Con Air’

Ultimately, the shenanigans of Con Air don’t work out for almost any of the prisoners in on the scheme — almost. The very last scene reveals an escaped Garland Greene gambling in Las Vegas to the jaunty melody of “Sweet Home Alabama.” You know, the same Garland Greene who killed 30 people and once wore a girl’s head as a hat. It’s hard not to root for Steve Buschemi, but whatever you think of the rest of the inmates, that’s a man who absolutely needs to be locked up. Watch out, gambling lady.

The Frost Beast Terrorized London in ‘Thor: The Dark World’

Remember that giant ice-nocerous that crashed into London, swallowed a guy and then ran off in Thor: The Dark World? If your bladder held out through the second post-credits scene, you know that everyone kinda forgot about that, but they’d be forced to remember it real soon. The beast is seen chasing birds through the city, and it’s definitely going to kill tons of people, if it hasn’t already.

The Troll in ‘Enchanted’ Has a Really Creepy Outfit

If you look closely at the loincloth on the troll sent to eat Amy Adams — and we don’t know why you would — you’ll notice that it’s made of dresses. Specifically, the dresses seen in previous Disney movies worn by Cinderella, Aurora, Belle and Snow White. He even has earrings made of Ariel’s shells. So that’s… concerning? We know that fairy tales are real in this universe. What did he do to them?

The People of ‘WALL-E’ Waited Way Too Long

The opening scenes of WALL-E make it clear that the movie takes place in a post-apocalyptic garbage land, but it also reveals just how blockheaded the humans of this universe were when it came to preventing their own demise. There are wind turbines and nuclear power plants dotting the trash-strewn landscape, but they’re built on top of the landfills. Humanity tried to save itself — it was just too late.

There’s a ‘Cars’ Pope

The Cars universe is full of nightmare historical implications, but just to scratch the surface, consider the Popemobile. It only exists so that Mater can joke, “Is the Popemobile a Catholic?” but it implies that not only is there a Cars Pope, someone tries to assassinate him. Furthermore, there was a Cars Jesus who was crucified on the Cars Cross. There’s a Cars Bible telling of the Cars Adam and Eve and Noah’s Cars. There was, in all likelihood, a Cars Troubles. 

It’s Cars all the way down. When you find us in the fetal position on the ground, surrounded by red string and push pins, muttering, “It’s Cars… it’s all Cars,” this is why.
