Ununnilium: Born in the Theater should be set up to redirect here. (Not sure how to get that to work.)

Gus: That's done. When you want to do it yourself, just do [redirect:BornInTheTheatre], with double-square braces.

Ununnilium: Neat. Thanks!


(cutlist discussion)

Big T: I really don't see how these examples don't fit, as was claimed by the Cutlister:

Trying to narrow down Breaking the Fourth Wall in a fashion that isn't working.
The examples are at odds with the description. Is this trope really necessary? ->Anonymous Mc Cartneyfan

Anonymous Mc Cartneyfan: Sorry. It's just that this trope claims to be an animated trope, but half of the listed examples are live-action.

If we remove the requirement that followers of this trope be animated and theatrical, there is very little separating this trope from Breaking the Fourth Wall and No Fourth Wall collectively; I'm not sure there's enough to justify the generalized version of this being a different trope.

If the description is limited properly--well, just listing Looney Tunes just looks wrong, and we seem to be having problems finding other cartoons that practice it. I'm sorry I was so draconian here; after linking this to Breaking the Fourth Wall, I got slightly frustrated.
