Most Unwittingly Prophetic Statements

You live up to your user name so often that I just want to pat you on the head.

In a recent boxing match on “Friday Night Fights” (ESPN2) a few weeks ago, Vivian Harris was boxing someone. Teddy Atlas made a comment about the dangers of headbutts. As if on cue, Harris was headbutted (accidentally). It was bad enough (took a headbutt to the temple), that he collapsed moments later.

Adorable, aren’t I?

Back in the early days of Saturday Night Live, they did a film called “Don’t Look Back In Anger”, where an elderly John Belushi goes to the cemetery to visit the graves of his deceased former castmates, and utters the line “They always said I’d be the first one to go.”

Eric Draven: “Take your shot, Funboy. You got me dead bang.” - The Crow

No prophetic, exactly, but wasn’t it here that just a few days before 9/11 someone posted a query asking would there be room if all the airplanes had to land at the same time? I always thought that was a little on the “hmmm” side.

In 2000, Sluggy Freelance did a send up of Steve Irwin, Crocodile Hunter. In it, Steve Uozin, Demon Hunter, meets his demise by being stabbed in the chest with a demon-spear (also known as the “Squid on a Stick”)

From the Arnold Schwartzanegger movie “The Last Action Hero”

Slater (Ahnold) is walking towards a building in order to “negotiate” with The Ripper, Tina Turner approaches him, trying to stop him from entering the building, she has a “Suit” in tow behind her

TT; Slater I know we’ve had our differences, but this (gesturing to the “suit”) is the Lieutenant Governor…
AS; <backhand punches the LG> When the Governor gets here, call me…
(filmed long before Ahnold became the “Governator”, it’s funnier now)
