I have come here to chew bubble gum and trope the shit out of the things I like.
And I'm all out of bubble gum.

Many people mention the pages they created on this site, so now it's my turn:
Films
- The Adventures of Quentin Durward — Ivanhoe and Knights of the Round Table are among my childhood favorites. I wonder how I missed that third film all this time...
- The Call of the Wild (2020)
- Cop or Hood
- Ghostbusters: Afterlife
- Heidi (2015) — I don't remember any prior version of the story so that one is the first I've seen entirely, and boy do I love it (and it's my first Swiss movie too). Kinda hard not to see the grandpa as Adolf Hitler, but otherwise, it's very charming.
- A Hidden Life
- Holy Rollers — The trope Kosher Nostra and The Social Network gave me the idea to watch it and trope it.
- Ip Man Film Series — I felt that film series badly needed a page, ditto for the sequels.
- The Irishman
- Jungle Cruise
- Kings & Queen
- Knives Out
- The Long Ships
- Louis, the Child King — A nearly forgotten French historical movie.
- Lucy in the Sky
- Mesrine
- Midway
- Night Hunter
- No Time to Die
- An Officer and a Spy
- On Guard — I'm a big fan of French swashbuckler movies. To me, the fencing is better in them than in the genre's Hollywoodian counterparts, plus they used real castles.
- OSS 117 — I'm not familiar enough with the older films, but I'll surely fix that.
- Les Passeurs — World War II French TV movie. Quite an odd duck to be frank.
- Proxima
- Rambo: Last Blood
- Shaft (2019)
- Tenet
- The Three Musketeers (1961) — My favorite adaptation of the book. Gave me the occasion to renovate the franchise's page a little.
- The Three Musketeers (1953) — Inferior version, but still worth troping.
- Revenge of the Musketeers — OK sequel to the books.
- Top Gun: Maverick
- Trilogie des Malfaisants
- Triple Frontier
- The Way Back (2020)
- Wonder Woman 1984
- Zombieland: Double Tap
Animation
- Asterix — That franchise's animation department was lacking a bit on the site, so I decided to create these:
- Asterix the Gaul
- Asterix and Cleopatra
- Asterix in Britain
- Asterix and the Big Fight
- Asterix Conquers America — Not as good as I remember from my childhood. Some tropes felt very stupid and/or shoehorned, not what René Goscinny would have wanted.
- Asterix and the Vikings — Now they're all here.
- Toy Story: Ah, childhood, the memories...
Television
Live-Action Series:
- Alexandra Ehle
- Hanna
- The New Pope
- Sally4Ever — Possibly the weirdest shit I've ever seen coming from British TV. I watched it only for Lena Headey's and Sean Bean's cameos, and I'm still not sure what to think of it...
- Thierry la Fronde
- Watchmen (2019)
- The Witcher (2019)
Shows:
Video Games
- Afrika Korps vs. Desert Rats
- Splinter Cell — I thought each game needed its page.
Comic Books
- Asterix and the Falling Sky — Because someone had to make a page for that turd.
- The Dark Crystal: Creation Myths
Web Things
- Confessions d'Histoire — A very well done web historical Edutainment Show. If you can understand/speak French.
- Vader — Neat fan film.
Other Things
- The Bayeux Tapestry — I'm quite surprised no page was made about it before.
- Crazy Horse — Yeah, it's tropable. No, I sadly never went there, but I might one day.
- Parc Asterix — I went there in 2013. Created the page to expand the franchise's.
- Self Demonstrating - skekSil the Chamberlain — I loved being creeped out by The Dark Crystal, this guy included. So here's my homage to him.
- Self Demonstrating - Yoda
Stuff I'm fond of:
- Works Set in World War II
- Swashbuckler films
- 1960s-1970s French Films
- Franco-Belgian Comics
- DC Extended Universe — Yes. Deal with it.
- James Bond — For as long as I can watch movies.
- Neon Genesis Evangelion — A pity it's been troped to death, I can't find anything to add.
- Star Wars — Let's not get original.
- Assassin's Creed
