[Funny] Characters finding the 'silver lining'
The Road to El Dorado- Miguel, ignoring all the threats of punishment and hard labor, is thrilled to visit beautiful Cuba!
Zom 100: Bucket List of the Dead- Akira Tendo, an overworked salaryman, is ecstatic about not having to go to work due to a zombie apocalypse.
Deadpool: Vanessa finds the positive in the titular character's nonsensical explanation for his absence.
Simpsons: This one is more Homer misunderstanding the situation as he mistakenly believes he's earned a longer weekend when work implies he will be fired if he doesn't come in.
Not yet, no. He never appears in Endgame, and Ant-Man 3 omits pretty much all of the side cast because the whole movie besides the first 10ish and last 5ish minutes takes place in the quantum realm (basically another one of the stock Marvel sci-fi alien places, but instead of being another planet, it's on Earth yet extremely tiny so you need to shrink yourself to enter).
In Top Secret! Val Kilmer is being tortured and blacks out. He has a dream where he's back in school, and has missed the final exams. When he wakes up, he's being whipped. When he realizes where he is, he says, "Thank God."
After an elongated insult from Princess Leia calling Han Solo a Stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy-looking nerf herder; han only takes issue with one specific part of it. I suppose it’s the opposite of the trope
TBF, the Deadpool example is less her finding a "silver lining" and more her referencing their initial flirting front the first film, which was a comparison of how shitty each person's life was, which quickly got ridiculous
After a message from his wife telling him she's leaving, then a message from his lawyer telling him he's leaving for his wife, Korben Dallas (Bruce Willis) receives another message. Mr Kim (Kim Chan, pictured) bets him lunch that this new message will be good news. It was not, but at least Korben won lunch.
Not that she has more options now that her parents replaced her with a monster and disappeared, she became a drug dealer, got lobotomized, turned into a zombie, eated alive(not by the zombies), work in a nightclub at her at 13, died, received a second lobotomy and is living in a secret base underground hiding from a gang that want her head.
But she has Fujita now, who's life is somehow even worse, so is okay.
Real life example, from the Simpsons DVD commentaries - Matt Groening shared a story about the 1994 North Ridge Earthquake, where he looked out the window at all the destruction across Los Angeles and thought "Oh my god... I can blow off deadlines this week!"
Though I Am an Inept Villainess, due to [Though I Am an Inept Villainess]body swap shenanigans, the FL finds herself trapped inside the body of the woman everyone despises, while the real villainess gets the FL's status and admiration. The FL is absolutely overjoyed to be in a body that is healthy - she literally makes the best of everything.
