BANGFlagGun | ||
comment |
Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A notorious joke weapon responsible for the failure of countless suicide attempts, suicide pranks, mugs and murders. When the trigger is pulled, the gun barrel emits a large flag saying "BANG!" If the person holding the gun assumed the gun was real, expect an Oh, Crap! moment. Thus this weapon often works for stick-ups. The title is a take on BFG. Compare Only a Lighter. Examples: |

The Far Side: One cartoon featured aliens with a ray gun equivalent of this trope, with "ZZZ!" written on the flag. Another featured a Native American named Red Bear falling for a bow and arrow equivalent trick, with "Swoosh!" written on it. |

An episode of El Chapulín Colorado uses a variation with a Time Bomb instead. During the second half of the episode, Chapulin, (who is in small size) tries to carry the bomb to the window to dispose of it. He manages to reach the window but with only 5 seconds left, and he's ready for the explosion... only for a small "PUM" flag to pop out of it, and the episode ends. | |

The Simpsons: An episode features Mr. Burns trying to amuse himself by shooting Smithers. The bang flag pops out to Burns' dismay, shouting, "Curses! It's jammed!" he smacks it on the side and the flag shoots out and sticks in Smithers. Burns declares it to be "hi-larious". Another episode shows Moe, during a montage of suicide attempts, putting a gun to his head and pulling the trigger. A flag that says BANG! comes out of his ear on the other side. |

Looney Tunes: In the short "Hare Conditioned", Bugs Bunny fires a rifle at a store manager, but all that comes out is three "Bang" signs in succession. The manager then produces three "Ouch" flags out of his mouth. "Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century" has a variation: Dodgers fires an Ultimatum Gun at Marvin, and the bullet stops short and out comes a flag reading, "Surrender, or be blown into 17,670,002 micro-cells." Marvin fires an Ultimatum Responder Gun, and the bullet stops in front of Dodgers and fires... a second bullet. Dodgers then fires another bullet with the rebuttal "Ouch!" In the short "Now Hear This", a character fires a rifle in the air, and out comes an umbrella. |

The gun is so iconic that when Joker comes back for Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker, so does the gun: in the uncut film, the spear version described under "Comics" is used to kill Bonk, and is laced with Joker Venom, and "later" it turns out to be how Joker himself was killed. The first time, anyway. In the censored version, a second pull of the trigger results in a cloud of Joker gas while the later use is replaced with Joker being pushed into an experimental lab, slipping on the water and glass, and electrocuting himself while trying to get up. | |

MAD: When MAD did a parody of Joseph Wambaugh's cop novel The New Centurions, one of the cops shot himself just before his scheduled retirement. Another cop said it must be because he felt he'd have nothing to live for after retiring, but it turned out he'd just mistakenly used a real pistol instead of the flag gun. Another one from MAD has a world courtesy of Don Martin, where these guns are used instead of real guns. Highlights include a silenced version (the flag says "thwip" in really small letters), a Chinese version, (the flag's "bang" is written in Chinese), and an aircraft-mounted version (multiple bang flags) And the one where a toymaker at a practical joke company shows one off to his boss who, unamused, makes a sign reading "aargh ya got me pal! (flop)" come out of his mouth. Followed by "You're Fired" coming from his ears. |

"Duck Dodgers in the 24½th Century" has a variation: Dodgers fires an Ultimatum Gun at Marvin, and the bullet stops short and out comes a flag reading, "Surrender, or be blown into 17,670,002 micro-cells." Marvin fires an Ultimatum Responder Gun, and the bullet stops in front of Dodgers and fires... a second bullet. Dodgers then fires another bullet with the rebuttal "Ouch!" | |

New Warriors. A BANG Flag Gun was used by the prosecutor to send the telekinetic Vance Astrovik to prison. His grabbing the smoke -of- the gun with his mind was used to prove he didn't have to be fatally damaging in defense from his father's abuse. The fact the prosecuter made everyone think she was trying to kill Vance didn't seem to actually matter to the judge. Prison ensued. | |

Batman: The Animated Series: In "Harlequinade", Harley Quinn, finally fed up with the Joker, pulls a tommy gun on him; Batman elects not to intervene. The Joker tells her she doesn't have the guts to pull the trigger. She does: "Ratta Tat Tat." She cringes with anticipated retribution, but the Joker, after a moment of cynical calculation, genuine surprise or both, decides to forgive her, and all is well. At the start of "Harley and Ivy", the Joker asks for the gun to fire at the pursuing Batmobile. Harley hands it to him while she drives, he pulls the trigger... "Bang!" In "Joker's Favor", a guy tormented by the Joker gets back at him by brandishing another of the Joker-faced bombs seen in the episode, only to laugh at J's terrified face when the bomb "explodes" into a BOOM flag. |

In The Drew Carey Show Mr. Wick decides to get an extra laugh out of firing Johnson. He hands him a crossbow and says that he's fired unless Johnson can shoot an apple off of his head. When Johnson pulls the trigger, a flag that says "You're Fired" drops down from the arrow. When Johnson shifts the the crossbow in his hand to be able to read the flag better he hits the trigger again firing the arrow and hitting Mr. Wick in the um... goodybag. | |

Played with on Saturday Night Live, during the cold open of the Bruce Dern episode from Season 8 (regarded as one of the best episodes of the entire Dick Ebersol era, mainly due to the "Buckwheat gets shot" storyline). When Gary Kroeger laments of his lack of screen time on the show at that point, he eventually escalates to "starting the show with a bang" by pointing a(n obviously fake) gun to his head. As he says the show's opening catchphrase "Live from New York...", he fires the gun, with the flag completing the phrase ("...It's Saturday Night!"). | |

Harley Quinn emulated the Joker with her own BANG! flag, but with a twist. While fighting a traitorous henchwoman, Harley shoots the wall with a stick that rolls out a flag reading "BOOM!". Her enemy mocks Harley, saying she got the word wrong since it should read "BANG!". Turns out she got it right, because just then the cap on the stick pops away showing it was a stick of dynamite. "BOOM!" indeed. | |

In a Superman comic book story from the early 1990s, shortly after the Toyman had killed Cat Grant's son, she visits him in jail and makes it look like she was going to kill him with a real gun that she smuggled inside. As it turns out, it was merely a BANG flag gun, as all she really wanted to do was to make the Toyman scared of her. | |

Plok gets one in his game in the form of the cowboy powerup outfit, found exactly once. As could be expected, it's largely useless, having a pitifully short range and a very slow firing rate. The primary reason the powerup is where it is in the first place is virtue of the fact that collecting any powerup outfit restores Plok's limbs if they're currently on a hanger somewhere else. | |

In The Mask for most of the time it’s played straight as The Mask does fire them though only after he tricks his enemies since he adopts the code of no killing but in episode "Sister Mask" averted as while possessed by the Sister Mask a fake created by Dr. Pretorius, he is forced to invade a military base. At one point, he transforms into a Rambo-type character and fires a big machine-gun into the air. More than a little dismayed that his gun is firing real bullets, he looks at it guiltily and says, "I thought I'd loaded it with the little 'bang' flags." | |
