That's No Moon: Difference between revisions

 

Compare [[Big Dumb Object]] and [[Dyson Sphere]]. Occasionally part of a [[Standard Sci Fi Fleet]]. If it's a real-world location, may overlap with [[Weaponized Landmark]]. Whatever the actual object turns out to be the discovery of it can often lead to an [[Oh Crap]] moment. Contrast [[No Mere Windmill]].

 

== Anime and Manga ==

* ''Digimon''

** ''[[Digimon Tamers (Anime)|Digimon Tamers]]'' has a ''forest'' that turns out to be Xuanwumon of [[The Four Gods]].

** Taken even further in ''[[Digimon Xros Wars (Anime)|Digimon Xros Wars]]'' with KingWhamon, who makes himself look like an island!

* ''[[Mazinger Z (Anime)|Mazinger Z]]'': Salude, [[The Dragon]] Baron Ashura's submarine fortress was simultaneously a [[Cool Ship]] and an [[Island Base]] camouflaged itself like a real island (it had two parts: the lower part was a submarine [[Home Base]] and the upper part was an artificial island. Both parts were interconected via a tube. When Salude surfaced, only the upper part was visible). The first time [[The Hero]] Kouji saw it, he exclaimed: "That is not a island!"

== Fan Works ==

* In ''[[Tiberium Wars (Fanfic)|Tiberium Wars]]'', a Nod soldier manning a checkpoint gets out his goggles and notices a lot of heat signatures on the road, and wonders where all those buildings came from. Seconds later, a squadron of [[Tank Goodness|Mammoth Tanks]] absolutely flattens his position. [[Bring My Brown Pants|Pants are crapped]], then obliterated by [[Magnetic Weapons|railguns]].

* In the animated ''Sinbad'' film, the crew of the ship ends up on an island. They discover it's a living creature when the [[Team Pet]] begins [[Eye Scream|licking its exposed eyeball.]]

* ''[[Spongebob SquarePants]]'' [[The Movie]] has a rather hilarious example involving an ice cream stand surrounded by skulls and bones, which was actually a giant fish.

* ''[[Transformers the Movie]]:'' "That's no giant, mechanical moon... ''it's a Transformer!!''"
