A cutscene is a term used in pre-current-generation gaming to describe a pre-rendered movie within a video game.

Cutscenes are far less likely to be used on current-gen consoles as most systems use an NIS (a non-interactive sequence). An NIS differs from a cutscene in that it is rendered in real-time by the game engine.
Bob: "Man did you see that cutscene in Need For Speed Undercover where Chase Lane is bending down, over the table? Wow!"

Joe: "That ain't no cutscene!"

When someone on a reality show gets offended, they emphasize it dramatically with a sudden large musical "thump", dead tone of a piano key, or symbol bash. Often accompanied by the person who is offended just seen standing there blanked out in "awe". Get's VERY annoying when used over and over in a show.
Example of a shocker cutscene


Girl 1-Ahh that was an awesome night.

Girl 2-Yeah especially with Dave, we had sex last night.

Girl 1-Oh? Cause Dave told me that I was better.

-Sudden burst of a random dark musical tone as Girl 2 just stares in shock-

Girl 2-Well he told me that you smelled!
