Boyz N the Hood/YMMV

• Anvilicious: Furious' lecture on the dynamics of property value.
  • Some Anvils Need to Be Dropped: "One out of every twenty-one Black American males will be murdered in their lifetime", followed by "Most will die at the hands of another Black male." All this is played over the sounds of arguing, gunshots, children screaming, and one child crying, "They shot my brother!" Cue the opening shot of a STOP sign.
• Fridge Horror: Theres a very good chance that Ricky's son will grow up to be a criminal because he won't have a father to guide him, which is a major part of the movie's message.
• Nightmare Fuel: The depiction of 'hood life is very realistic, and in several cases highly disturbing.
• Tear Jerker: Ricky, who is practically an innocent bystander in the Compton turf war, is murdered. Later, it is revealed that he qualified to go to college and pursue his dream.
  • Doughboy's fade out and "He was murdered two weeks later" title card.
