Dick Tracy (film): Difference between revisions

** Although a smart move on his part; the criminals get [[Curb Stomp Battle|mowed down easily since they're bottlenecked coming out of the garage.]]

* [[Disney Villain Death]]: Subverted, as Big Boy is ''pushed'' over a ledge.

* [[The Don]]: Big Boy Caprice.

* [[Enemy Mine]]: Ultimately subverted in the case of The Blank.

** "The enemy of my enemy is my enemy." [[Fridge Logic|But]]....if the first enemy is the enemy of his second enemy, then that makes his second enemy his friend. But he can't be his friend, because he's his ''enemy''. [[Logic Bomb|But that means....]]

{{quote|'''Big Boy Caprice:''' Around me, if a woman don't wear mink, she don't wear nuttin'.

'''Breathless Mahoney:''' Well, I look good both ways. }}

* [[Redemption Equals Death]]: {{spoiler|The Blank}}.

* [[The Reveal]]: Turns out the Blank is really...wait, who was he again? [[Un Reveal|I forgot...]]

* [[The Roaring Twenties]]: The Club Ritz is [[Two Decades Behind|stuck in this era (since it's technically supposed to be the Thirties)]], with Charleston-dancing flappers and [[G-Rated Drug|illegal booz - er, gambling]].

* [[Scenery Porn]]: Virtually every one of the reviews for the film, positive and negative, heaped a lot of praise on the art direction, set design, and color scheme, with some like [[Roger Ebert]] even saying it outdid Tim Burton's ''[[Batman (film)|Batman]]'' in the eye-candy department.

* [[Sean Connery Is About to Shoot You]]: Or rather, Warren Beatty is shooting at you with a ''tommy gun''. See the movie poster above.

* [[The Unintelligible]]: Mumbles

* [[The Vamp]]: Breathless Mahoney.

* [[The Voiceless]]: Played with. Mumbles CAN talk, but since no one can understand him it doesn't matter. He actually intentionally screws with people in this way, at one point giving a full confession to the cops, gleefully certain that they have no idea what he's saying.

* [[We Can Rule Together]]: [[Incorruptible Pure Pureness|But Tracy will have none of it.]]
