Working Title: Gonna Need More Trope: From YKTTW

Selasphorus: Removed a second Freakazoid example regarding CJ. If the redundancy was some joke I missed, I apologize.

Sockatume: I don't want to be baron von crankypants here, but just because someone needs "a new X", or "more X" doesn't automagically mean this trope. I mean, there's a certain emotional context here. It works if you're facing a task which unexpectedly is beyond your current capabilities. It doesn't work if you turn up to the final battle and left your car keys at home. "We're going to need bigger car keys" isn't the right thing. I mean, it's not just the trope title here, people.


Fast Eddie: Thought we cleaned up all of these things where 'trope' is used as a placeholder? Anyway. This will have to be renamed.


Nate The Great: Does the "Next time George get bigger box!" from the George Of The Jungle movie fit this?


rallyfan9000: Does Redford's line "We need a bigger gun!" count? (The context is that The Legionnaire has come around in his Ka-50 attack chopper and is about to blow everyone to pieces.)
