The famous last words of any villain at the height of their power, just before the tide begins to turn in favor of the heroes and everything starts to go wrong for the villain, who can then only scream "Noooo! This can't be happening!" It's usually followed by the Big Damn Heroes suddenly making their presence known, with a wry statement that says in so many words, "Oh yeah?" just before the climactic battle begins. No phrase on Earth is as powerful as this one when it comes to invoking Finagle's Law, with the possible exception of "At least things can't get any worse". Heroes, on the other hand, should avoid saying anything like "What Could Possibly Go Wrong?" A form of Tempting Fate. Compare Evil Gloating, Nothing Can Save Us Now, Retirony, What Could Possibly Go Wrong?. Also see Near-Villain Victory and the Darkest Hour, the point at which the villain is most likely to say this. |

In The Phantom Tollbooth, the Humbug, Milo and Tock are instantly transported to the Island of Conclusions for making over-optimistic comments, e.g. "Nothing can possibly go wrong now." The island is more bleak and desolate than it appears from a distance, and the journey back is much more arduous and unpleasant than getting there. | |

Ahsoka: In the finale, Morgan Elspeth says there's "very little" Ahsoka and her allies can do to stop Thrawn at that point. Thrawn, who has spent the last twenty years in exile thanks to his previous underestimation of what Jedi can do, shoots her a look like she's an idiot and tells her he's taking no chances. Thrawn successfully gets away, but it's a near thing. | |

Donkey Kong Country combines this with Chekhov's Gag: King K Rool is setting up a trap in the middle of the jungle with a barrel suspended on a vine, and he instructs Krusha to drop the barrel when he says "Now!" He then proceeds to get the barrel dropped on himself several times due to not being careful what he says, and eventually gives up. Later in the episode, he gets his hands on the Crystal Coconut, and is running through the jungle with it at breakneck speed, gloating to himself. | |

It doesn't: even after Homer wrecks the casino, Burns returns to the power plant because he misses it. "Team Homer" has this exchange: |

Bloodborne: Stated word-for-word by Micolash when you encounter him. Given that Micolash is a Squishy Wizard who has to spend most of your "fight" against him running away, on top of being a Big Bad Wannabe who's far less important and relevant than he imagines himself to be, and that he's going up against a One-Man Army Hunter of Monsters who, at this point in the game, has likely laid a couple of Great Ones to rest, he really should've known better than to tickle fate's fancy. | |

A non-villain example occurs on Blaze and the Monster Machines at least Once per Episode. Blaze or one of his friends would say this word-per-word, right before they encounter an obstacle which they must get past first. Crusher also plays this straight by saying this just before Blaze overtakes him and wins. | |

Their on-stage song of "Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now" turns into a big dance routine at the movie's climax, and though the Enfant Terrible Big Bad makes the obligatory over-the-top attempt to put the lie to their lyrics, she succeeds only in playing right into their hands. | |

Another example, earlier in the film, had the heroes say something akin to this when they were trying to find out why saying Zeeky Boogy D—er, the "Zeeky words" resulted in a nucularnote It's pronounced "nuclear"! explosion.

Asuka was fighting very well but three factors would ensure her defeat: the cut power supply, the Mass Produced EVAs, and the Diabolus ex Machina. Cue Heroic RRoD at THE worst possible moment. | |

In an episode of Married... with Children, Kelly is offered a lucrative contract if she becomes the spokesmodel for a new beer that's coming into the market. When Kelly grows a goatee and goes bald thanks to a pimple home remedy made by one of Peggy's relatives, she's fired because of of how ugly she is. When Marcy, who's at the studio to protest the beer's sexist marketing campaign, hears this, she threatens to sue the company, saying Kelly's being discriminated for her looks. Sometime later, Kelly's commercial airs and Al says that he'll be rich once she lands an even better contract, Bud tells Al no to be so certain, to which Al responds "Al Bundy can never lose!" Kelly comes in and announces she was fired (because she's beautiful now) and Al responds "... or win either." | |

Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers: In the episode "Two For One", the Red Dragon Thunderzord is getting its skidplate handed to it by Lipsyncher, to the point where it can no longer stand. Lord Zedd proclaims, "Victory is mine." Cut to the other Rangers arriving on the scene and summoning their own Thunderzords to back up the Red Dragon. In "Hogday Afternoon Part II", after defeating the Shogun Megazord, Hydro Hog proclaims, "Nothing can stop me now!" only to have the Falconzord show up, shoot him up and make him drop his sword, and link up with the Shogunzords to form the Shogun Megafalconzord, which blasts him into oblivion. |

Invoked by the commentators during the 2007 Royal Rumble match, when The Great Khali entered late in the match and basically took it over, eliminating several Superstars in succession and beating the rest into submission. The commentators became convinced that Khali was going to win the whole thing; and even as the clock ticked down the final 10 seconds before the 30th - and final - participant was to make his entrance, they emphasized that no one could stop Khali. Just then the clock ran out, and...cue gong. | |

Science Ninja Team Gatchaman: Berg Katse or one of his captains speaks this line every few episodes. Generally shortly before a kaboom aimed at or in the mecha/base of the week. | |

Makai Kingdom: This is the first line spoken by Villain Protagonist Zetta as he effortlessly slaughters his way through guardians of a forbidden library, burning it down around him as he does. Zetta then proceeds to prove the trope right when he causes the netherworld he's standing on and everything on it, himself included, to get Critical Existence Failure in a spectacularly stupid attempt to Screw Destiny. | |

Mazinger Z: Curiously, Baron Ashura tends to utters that sentence in two types of situation: when Big Bad Dr. Hell is showing another of his Robeasts to him/her/it (cue Mazinger Z obliterating the Mechanical Beast twenty minutes later); or when one of his/her/its schemes succeeds or is close to succeeding. Examples of the second use are when a Mechanical Beast has utterly trashed Mazinger Z, when he managed to steal a sample of Alloy Z... On the other hand, Great Marshall of Hell from Great Mazinger was more careful about using it. Seemingly he learnt his lesson since he was a resurrected Dr. Hell. |

James Bond movies: You Only Live Twice. Blofeld is unperturbed when Tanaka's ninja army blast a hole in the roof of his Volcano Lair and fast-rope inside. He orders the control room sealed with armored shutters, saying: "We are now impregnable. Interception will take place in eight minutes. Nothing can prevent that." Never Say Never Again: Blofeld says this as the warhead is being sent to the target. The best use of "I am invincible!" is delivered by Boris Grishenko (Alan Cumming) in GoldenEye, who has it as his catchphrase. When he survives the destruction of Trevelyan's base after the second Goldeneye satellite smacked into the atmosphere, he utters the line, and immediately gets frozen to death when some tanks of liquid nitrogen explode right behind him. Also a Chekhov's Gun, as the liquid nitrogen tanks had obviously been there the whole time (it served as coolant for the computers). |

Galaxy of Fear: Spore says something to this effect while chasing Tash through an Asteroid Thicket. It taunts her with a twisted version of a We Can Rule Together speech, saying she's not nearly strong enough to stop it. Then the giant space slugs show up. The very second book, City of the Dead, has the Big Bad monologing to himself about how soon his control over the galaxy will begin, nothing can stop him. Immediately after that, an alarm sounds and he finds out that his first experiment has suddenly gone offline. |

Near the beginning of the sixth season of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Gul Dukat has a particularly good one just before Sisko gets the wormhole aliens to destroy the Jem'Hadar fleet. This is followed by a very bad villainous BSOD, worsened when his close adjutant Damar shoots his daughter Ziyal for betraying the Cardassian-Dominion alliance by breaking a group of terrorists out of prison. At the end, Dukat, having gone over the course of the episode from the effective leader of the Cardassian empire and one of the three most powerful beings in the Alpha Quadrant to a war criminal in a prison cell, has obviously cracked and is huddled up in the corner of the prison talking to Ziyal. | |

Pokémon: Zoroark: Master of Illusions: Grings Kodai finally absorbs the Time Ripple he's been searching for after his Evil Plan seems to go off flawlessly. Having a massive ego, he just can't help going into one of these rants in front of Ash, telling him that he'll get away with it and there's nothing anyone can do. Turns out Zorua destroyed his illusion canceler, something Zoroark took full advantage of, and the Time Ripple he just absorbed was a fake and Karl caught his entire gloating session on tape and plays it to the entire town the next morning, including the cops. While Kodai would've been defeated even if he hadn't gone into his speech, it was the final nail in the coffin, as it had him admit to causing a massive disaster 20 years ago and being perfectly willing to do it again, ensuring his arrest. | |

Halo: In Halo 2 after Tartarus had brought him the Index, the Prophet of Truth proclaims that nothing, not even the Flood, can stop them. Appropriately, a Spartan-II materializes right in front of him and the Arbiter starts wrecking things on Halo's surface. And for extra goodness, both appearances are orchestrated by the Flood. In Halo 3, after Truth's plans to cause galactic omnicide are stopped, Gravemind chimes in that his own are still on track: |

Subverted in A Bridge Too Far: it is a Nazi officer who says in horror "Nothing can stop them now", the 'them' being the Allied tanks crossing the bridge he has just failed to blow up. As it happens, they are in fact stopped later and we get a downer ending. Most of the Allies have this attitude early on, believing that the Wehrmacht is now a spent force so the operation will be incredibly easy. When General Browning declares that "Only the weather can stop us now." the astounded General Sosabowski retorts that the Germans still have a say in the matter, but is brushed off. |

Monsters vs. Aliens has a lot of these. Immediately after the Big Bad says "That force field is impenetrable." Ginormica rips through it and punches him in the face. In the chase scene that followed this, Ginormica easily rammed through several blast doors without even slowing down. "You can't crush a cockroach!" The AI system of the Alien's ship has a security system that functions just like DanceDanceRevolution. After the AI declares her security code unbreakable, Dr. Cockroach busts out the moves and unlocks the system. |

A New Hope. Though it takes a little longer (probably because it's in a secure conference room) for the full backlash, admiral Motti announces that the Death Star "is now the ultimate power in the universe!" He is nearly choked by Vader moments later, for scoffing at the power of the Force. Proving that karma often works faster in movies than it does in real life, the Death Star's destruction is heralded by Grand Moff Tarkin's refusal to abandon the station in their "moment of triumph". Before that, we get the following line from Darth Vader himself: "This will be a day long remembered. It has seen the end of Kenobi; it will soon see the end of the Rebellion." Interestingly, Vader says the trope name word-for-word at the end of the Imperial campaign in Empire at War, but by that point, he's not wrong. |

However, when Near and the other SPK members don't die, it becomes clear that Light has been out gambitted. | |

Combattler V: It is disturbingly frequently used by Prince Garuda. When he blew Hyoma's arms off, when he blackmailed the Japanese Government in blowing up the Nanbara Connection -the HQ of the heroes-, when he deceived the Japanese police to get the Combattler team under arrest...

Code Geass: Lelouch has this happen to him on an almost episodic basis; whenever one of his 'flawless' plans nears completion, Lelouch gloats to himself that, "All the conditions have been cleared." Within seconds, something goes terribly wrong, commonly due to something that Lelouch couldn't have possibly known about beforehand. He gets more savvy about it as time goes on thankfully. | |

There was an indie band called Repliforce. Their motto was "No one can stop us" (this and their name are references to Mega Man X4). They lasted about two or three years. The real Tear Jerker was that their final album was actually called "No One Can Stop Us". | |

My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic: Discord states that harmony is officially dead in Equestria after the Elements of Harmony fizzle out when the heroes try to use them on him and pretty much declares victory. Unfortunately for him, the heroes manage to turn things around and this very mentality is what causes his downfall. And Nightmare Moon even gives a speech on that. Queen Chrysalis gives a similar speech during the second season finale when she manages to defeat the Mane Six and Celestia and is posed to take over all of Equestria. Minutes later, she's defeated by the same Power of Love she's been siphoning for the last two episodes. Starlight Glimmer gives a brief one in the fifth season finale when Twilight Sparkle's initial attempts to stop her from disrupting the Sonic Rainboom fail. Starlight doesn't take into account that Twilight hadn't tried everything yet, and she doesn't know that her actions have devastating consequences. |

Doctor Who: A So Bad, It's Good example from the original series. Outrageously accented Mad Scientist Professor Zaroff from "The Underwater Menace" cackling "Nuzzink in ze vorld can shtop me now!!!" Or the Rani's "I have the Loyhargil! Nothing can stop me now!" from "Time and the Rani". "The Parting of the Ways": Lampshaded in "The Satan Pit": The Doctor's "I'm the Doctor" speech from "Voyage of the Damned" falls under this trope, given how spectacularly he fails. Except for the bit where he manages to save all six billion people on Earth. "Journey's End": To be fair, he DID stop every backup plan, which is impressive for a villain. "The Waters of Mars": An, ultimately, Zig-Zagging Trope depending on whom you think The Doctor's talking to in the cliffhanger for Episode 3 of "The Caves of Androzani". The Doctor is in a ship that is crashing back to the surface of Androzani Minor, on a suicide mission to rescue Peri from both the clutches of Jerrek Zek and the Spectrox Toxemia that threatens to kill them both. As the ship hurtles closer and closer to the planet, the Doctor yells out "I'm not going to let you stop me now!" as the sting note plays. If he was talking to the pilot who was trying to kill him or addressing the villains of the episode in general, it's subverted as he does carry the day. However, there is a fan theory that he was saying it to himself, as there were very subtle implications that he was already beginning to regenerate and he was only hanging on by sheer willpower, a battle he would in the end lose. |

In AdventureQuest Worlds, after defeating the Mafic Dragon, just when the hero is about to collect the Chaos Focus Gem and accept it into the Supreme Arcane Staff, Ledgermayne snatches the gem and crushes it into pieces, afterwards telling the hero to go back to the Tower of Magic and await Lore's demise. It even says "There is nothing on Lore that can stop us now," before teleporting back to the para-elemental plane of magic. However, Ledgermayne made one mistake — it didn't check to make sure there were no shards left from the Gem, so, being the optimistic fellow he/she is, the hero accepts the shards left behind into the staff itself. | |

Used by Plankton twice in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie, first when the Chum Bucket is finally successful after he finally stole the Krabby Patty formula, with Karen mentioning that SpongeBob and Patrick are going after Neptune's crown, but Plankton sends a hitman after them. Then later, when all of Bikini Bottom's citizens are under his control and Squidward, the only one onto his plan has been captured, Planktons victoriously cries "Who can stop me now?! (Evil Laugh) WHO?!". It then cuts to SpongeBob and Patrick. | |

In the British automotive series Top Gear, the team of presenters is frequently given an automotive related challenge of some kind (e.g., each one is to purchase a used vehicle, convert it to be amphibious, and then sail it across the English Channel). Usually, on being given the task, presenter Jeremy Clarkson launches into it asking the enthusiastic rhetorical question, "How hard can it be?" Answer: usually very (e.g., both times the Top Gear presenters were challenged to convert vehicles into car-boats, Richard Hammond's conversion sank). This has been lampshaded in several episodes. In the first episode of the series' 9th season, (the episode in which Hammond returned after recovering from a serious brain injury sustained in a dragster crash), Clarkson ended his introduction to a challenge with the fateful words And in another episode later that season... |

An example of this presumed causation working its way into the text: the Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "Spiral". Dawn reassures Buffy that things can't get worse. Immediately, an arrow flies into their RV. Buffy tells Dawn, "This is your fault for saying that!" | |

LazyTown: "Defeeted": Robbie considers Sportacus out of the picture after expelling him from the stage and later after he's stuck kicking uncontrollably on his back, unable to get up. | |

Wander over Yonder: In "The Good Bad Guy", Lord Hater has taken over enough planets to get ninth place at the galactic villain leaderboard and proclaims that "nothing can stop me now". That's the cue for Hater's former evil idol Major Threat to show up and try to reform him. When instead Hater seems to have made Major Threat revert back to Patrick his evil ways, the latter takes over Hater's position at the leaderboard and also proclaims that nothing can stop him now. This is the cue for Hater to show up dressed as Wander to try to "re-wanderize" Major Threat. Then it turns out Major Threat was just pretending to become evil again as part of a plan to reform Hater. | |

Was turned into a running gag on Drawn Together. Every time Spanky says "Nothing can possibly go wrong!", something inevitably does. | |

Artemis Fowl: In The Arctic Incident, the main villain Briar Cudgeon states "And nobody can get in here to stop me." the narration remarks "Of course, you should never say something like that, especially when you're an arch villain. It's just asking for trouble." Predictably, the author is correct; shortly thereafter Artemis's Battle Butler shoulders his way through a supposedly secure door; then the other archvillain learns that Cudgeon has betrayed her and kills him with plasma that he himself had activated. | |

My Little Pony: The Movie (1986): Perhaps one of the most iconic examples... "Nothing can stop the Smooze!" Hydia was lying- the Flutter Ponies can and do stop it. | |

Operation: Z.E.R.O.: Grandfather proclaims this after finally obtaining the Book of KND, proclaiming that no one will defeat him once he destroys it... mere seconds before he notices the KND Moonbase dropping right on top of him. Though to his credit, he survives that; he's still done in after finding out he's in the base's Decommissioning Chamber. | |

The Last Starfighter. Xur, the resident Big Bad, receives an incomplete transmission from Earth saying simply "The last Starfighter...". He automatically completes the sentence himself: "...is dead. The last Starfighter is dead. Nothing Can Stop Us Now!" No prizes for guessing how that worked out for him. | |

Noir: You would almost think it was deliberate that they were writing off the "Daughter of Corsica" while she was driving a jeep towards them with a handgun on the passenger seat. Especially since they repeated the claim while she was entering their base. | |

While Grunkle Stan of Gravity Falls hasn't been established as a villain yet, he says this about whatever he's doing with the Universe Portal built underneath the Mystery Shack. | |
