ACTING with EMPHASIS. Nearly any emotion will do here, so long as it's EXTREME! A common term for a scene where an actor's acting so damn hard that they're picking bits of scenery out of their teeth for days. Sometimes scenes can actually require this, but more often the actor and/or director just has the character go over the top. This can include Berserk Button, Freak Out, and other exaggerated emotions. While this can often be a bad thing and ruin a scene, just as often it can add to the fun, whether a work is So Bad, It's Good or genuinely good. In a Police Procedural, this will often be due to a Perp Sweating or an Exasperated Perp. A Sister Trope to Melodrama. Compare Narm and Narm Charm. Contrast Dull Surprise (emotionless moments when emotion is called for), Dramatic Deadpan (when the dramatic punch is from how low key it's presented). Not to be confused with This Billboard Needs Some Salt (actually munching on the scenery) or Trash the Set. It's well worth noting that this trope is also one of the biggest causes of memes. |

The performances in Kickassia as a whole play this to the hilt, for pure hilarity. Most impressive are the portrayals of The Nostalgia Critic (Doug Walker) and Spoony (Noah Antwiler), which are absolutely over the top and down the other side. Though they've had plenty of practice in their reviews, such as "EXPLAIN, MOVIE! JUST ''EX-PLAAAAAINNN!!!''", the Critic's huge freak-outs over the likes of Batman & Robin. Or Ma-Ti's "A movie that make my nipples tingle with fear!" Noah Antwiler's brilliant impression of WARRIOR in the The Spoony Experiment/Atop the Fourth Wall reviews of the Warrior comics quite happily swallows down a whole lot of scenery, seemingly without it even touching the sides. He probably could have managed more, had there been any actual scenery to munch on... Worryingly, the actual Ultimate Warrior appears to be so much worse than Spoony's impression. In the Battlefield Earth review, Spoony's version of Terl somehow manages to chew the scenery more than John Travolta's. And it is glorious. |

Exalted, being a game designed to let players be over the top in all they do, allows your character to live this trope. There's even a mention of player characters getting a dying monologue, no matter how they die. Dragon Blooded, almost literally, chew the scenery when they use a lot of 'mana', because their anima banners start doing damage to everything within a few yards. Accordingly, they tend to furnish their homes with sculpture and heavy stone furniture, so they don't have to buy a new couch every time someone gets pissed off. In the source book for the Infernal Exalted, the Storytelling chapter has a section on how to use them as Card Carrying Villains (their original intent) entitled "This Scenery Looks Delicious." In fact, at one point in the book it's explained how the player of a 'Green Sun Prince' can even receive mechanical benefits from dramatic monologuing under the right circumstances. |

David Draiman: the only "acting" he's ever done in a video was a Big "NO!". His voice is the kind that can somehow make "WE BEGIN THE HUNT TONIGHT! FEEL THE POWER COURSE AS THE CREATURES TAKE FLIGHT!!" sound cool. He also loves to fill songs with Evil Laughter. If anyone else did this, it would be So Bad, It's Good. With him, he really can convince you that he's an indestructible master of war. | |

Sparks in Girl Genius are usually rather normal whenever they're not in The Madness Place — but when they are, this trope applies to damn near everything they do. Which counts as a deconstruction, since Mad Scientists chew the scenery due to being, well, mad — oscillating between psychotic breaks from reality and psychotic breakthroughs into reality. ...which is why they also easily slip into loud mood swings. Or jump into loud mood swings. Childish flares of rage are all the rage among the Sparks, too. That does explain Othar Tryggvassen, GENTLEMAN ADVENTURER! quite well. The chapter where Agatha meets Gilgamesh Wulfenbach enter "The Madness Place" was named "Gil Chews the Scenery". After some rumours, this episode later was explicitly referenced as "chewing the furniture". |

Basically everyone in A Very Potter Musical does this at some point, but Snape really takes the cake and throws it away in favor of some delicious scenery. | |

In Tales of the Emperasque the Emperor's new, Nigh Invulnerable form allows him to chew the scenery more often than not, even when he's under enemy fire, especially as he has No Indoor Voice now. Dante also has his moment during the canyon battle, when he theatrically pretends to blow Orks with his pistol (they explode because of mines on the ground). | |

Super Sonic Short by DeviantArt's Link3Kokiri has Sonic the Hedgehog and friends screaming at the top of their lungs while changing into their super forms. It's not so much the original animation that qualifies for this trope, but the German dub. They literally overload the speakers. | |

Ring of Honor The most frequent offender was Homicide, until his stoic foil Bryan Danielson won the World Title Belt and proceeded to demand he be announced as "The Best Wrestler In The World". Prince Nana tends to do this while threatening to sick his Embassy on someone, often while back pedaling away or hiding behind something for added effect. Jimmy Jacobs increasingly on the topic of Lacey (who is no slouch herself when the time's right), culminating with his But I Would Really Enjoy It filibuster at Good Times, Great Memories. Whenever Larry Sweeney, Chris Hero and Tank Toland were together and given the floor they threatened to devour everything in sight, usually starting with Bobby Dempsey. The Briscoes were supposed to be putting over the champions but Dem Boys will take the time to chew you out, even if they don't mention you by name, reDRagon and Michael Elgin! Ever since he joined the House Of Truth, Jay Lethal seesawed between calm relaxation and shouting lunatic. At Supercard Of Honor X Colt Cabana returned to let out everything he felt about the promotion for the past half decade all at once. On night two, Adam Page followed suit, pulling up a chair for a long pent up rant against BJ Whitmer. And The House Of Truth didn't forget about the women. In fact, Taeler Hendrix's rant on the Honor Is Fair Play mindset that permeates through the promotion might have drawn as much attention to the rebranded Women Of Honor division as any match. |

In The Legend of Total Drama Island, the normally deadpan Noah is oblivious to the fact that he's hamming up the delivery when he gives a flowery blank verse speech based on the “St. Crispin’s Day� speech during the dodgeball match. The Storyteller also notes that “a swell of dramatic music� accompanied Noah's speech in the finished episode. | |

Many of the above mentioned examples have worked for TNA, but it was Matt Hardy who gained a reputation for doing so particularly in the promotion, where he finally "broke". Seventeen minutes of insanity dubbed "The Final Deletion" got TNA some much needed attention for their Pop program. | |

Aladdin has Aladdin going all cool to the onlookers as Prince Ali. He's got to look his best and he delivers, though he doesn't say anything big. Once Jafar gets his hands on the magic lamp, he goes all out big and loud, especially when he wishes to be "THE MOST POWERFUL SORCERER IN THE WORLD". And then, there's him becoming a genie, courtesy of his third and final wish... |
