I can’t remember hearing any villain actually say anything like this in a while, though. Which recent movies did so? I feel like society caught on lol. The only time I can think of something sort of like this happening was in ::: spoiler Fallout, when

Ah, right, true. I’ve gotta re-watch that one, by the way!
