Blackpool Illuminations 

An annual lights festival in a coastal town in England, the whole promenade is covered in lights.

When a lot of (often unnecessary) lights are on in a house/building someone might liken it to Blackpool illuminations.
"This house is like bloody Blackpool illuminations! Why are all the lights on?!"

Premature De-Illumination 

The action of accidentally turning off the last light in the house (when it's dark outside) resulting in disorientation and/or bumping in to things whilst looking for for another light switch.
Mike: Bro! I was about to go to bed but I accidentally Prematurely De-Illuminated the room and had to use my cell phone as a flashlight!

Brad: Man, I know what you meen. You gotta be careful with that Premature De-Illumination, last night I smashed my foot trying to find the bathroom when I did that.

Illumination Entertainment 

The worst western animation studio to ever exist. They probably even think that kids are stupid.
I hate these garbage films made by Illumination Entertainment.
