Trolly problem: If you don't choose the track then the trolly will derail violently. roll over,killing the passengers inside as well as those on both tracks. On one track there is a group of individuals whom you don't know on the other track there is the person that YOU love the most.

Which one do you choose?

And what is morality of both options ?

In The Butterfly Effect, the time-traveling protagonist strangles himself in the womb to avoid ruining everyone’s lives. The ending is often criticized as being comically dark and absurd; however the protagonist was seen visiting a movie theater earlier, making the act understanable.

(Absolutely Loved Tropes) Title drops that feels natural and happen at a thematically appropriate moment.

1-The Lord of the Rings has one for each movie:

​

A-After Frodo volunteers to take the One Ring to Mordor, the rest of the group steps up one by one to join him. Elrond officially sanctions their quest and names their newly formed squad: “Nine companions. So be it. You shall be the Fellowship of the Ring.”

​

B-Saruman gloats about the strength of the alliance between his fortress (Orthanc) and Sauron’s fortress in Mordor (Barad-dûr): “Who now has the strength to stand against the armies of Isengard and Mordor? To stand against the might of Sauron and Saruman... and the union of the Two Towers?”

​

C-Denethor refuses to step aside for Aragorn, the actual rightful heir. Gandalf basically loses his patience, puts Denethor in his place, and tells him he doesn't get a vote: “Authority is not given to you to deny the return of the King, Steward!”

​

2- In Jujutsu Kaisen. The title can be translated to "Sorcery Fight," however it has another translation of the kanji, where "Juju" means a curse or a spell, "Jutsu" means technique, "Kai" means to revolve or cycle, and "Sen" means war or battle. Together, they signify a perpetual, cyclical struggle.

During the final battle with Sukuna, Yuji's line to Sukuna doesn't just refer to the cycle of curses in the setting but it also literally means "Let's end this cycle of curses (Jujutsu Kaisen)."

​

3- In Devil May Cry 3, at the end of the game, after Dante defeats his twin brother Vergil and fails to save him from getting trapped in the demon world, he breaks down in tears and blames it on the rain, causing Lady to tell him: "Maybe somewhere out there, even a devil may cry when he loses a loved one. Don't you think?"

​

Let me expand on what I mean:

By "natural" I mean that the title drops don't feel forced by the writer just for an "Aha, he said the thing" moment (e.g., Fantastic Four).

​

-If the title refers to something or someone (e.g., Invincible, Jurassic Park, Spider-Man), then technically the title could be dropped hundreds of times. It feels like cheating, but that is completely overlooked if the scene is that just good.
