MasoTey: I've taken the liberty of [[strike:trying to categorize]] categorizing the examples; there are so many I figured it was a good idea. Hope I haven't left too much of a mess.

LooneyToons: I removed Kendra's recent addition because it duplicated an example already in the list (Captain America).

Egak: On the ''CowboyBebop'' Example, I remember calculating that Faye was frozen in the 2020s, which makes one wonder why her time capsule video was recorded on '''Betamax'''.

{{LTR}} - That kinda bugged me too, even if you subtract some years to account for the fact that Faye was just a kid when the video was recorded, she'd still have been a kid about 25 years too late to be on Betamax. Furthermore, Jet and Spike salvage a working betamax machine from the ruins of a shopping mall on Earth, a double-whammy, not only does it still work, but it was apparently still a common retail item in the 2000's? A big does not compute, but, ultimately FridgeLogic, doesn't ruin the show.

{{jjmcgaffey}} - There's a problem with the linkage. SuspendedAnimation is on the SpeculativeFictionTropes list, but HumanPopsicle is not - which means that the redirect breaks the links. I don't know how to fix it. Is SuspendedAnimation dead, replaced by HumanPopsicle? In that case it needs to be changed in the SpeculativeFictionTropes list.

PaulA: Yes, Suspended Animation has been replaced by HumanPopsicle. I have updated the SpeculativeFictionTropes list accordingly.

{{Lale}}: Am I the only one who notices the Romeo and Juliet reference is ''completely'' off? Juliet was '''not''' put into SuspendedAnimation, let alone being frozen. She did not wake up 1000 years later, not having aged a day. The ruse was not a way to evade death but to fake death. It doesn't apply to this trope at all. If someone disagrees with me, feel free to undo the change, but I'm deleting it.

FastEddie: I disagree. Her animation was suspended, for the purposes of the plot. Putting it back in. The examples that have latched on to the SF aspects can just find a better home.

{{Lale}}: If this was going to be merged with SuspendedAnimation, Suspended Animation is the title that should have been kept. Human Popsicle sounds wittier but less inclusive for what is covered by the trope because by the entry's current standards, it ''is'' SuspendedAnimation, including HumanPopsicle and others.

FastEddie: OK, I see the problem. SuspendedAnimation is a redirect back to this entry. The Juliet call-out is to a wider trope than the examples reflect. "Popsicle" is to a specific case. Looks like we've got a split on our hands.

{{Robert}}: The merger discussion went:
----
{{Gus}}: This entry and Human Popsicle need to merge. I like Suspended Animation for the winner for the simple-and-directness, but Human Popsicle brings the funny for the title. I am thereby torn.

{{LooneyToons}}: I always vote for the funny, but that's just me.

{{Gus}}: I can go with the funny. Any defenders for Suspended Animation? If not, this puppy is going down.

{{Robert}}: Six months with no objections - I think it'll be safe to merge them.

RedShoe: I just want to point out that, tone aside, the recently-removed aside about "freezer-burn" was not a joke. The main problem with freezing someone then thawing them out is that water expands when you freeze it, which in turn ruptures cells, making them non-viable. That is exactly what freezer-burn is.

Okay, what is the meaning of the meat popsicle quote up top? Dallas isn't an ancient, his mom's alive, but WHAT DOES THAT LINE MEAN!?? -Spriteless
