The Social Network 2: Troped

You guys rememeber that one movie about that one site called Facebook?

Well, imagine if TV Tropes ever inspired a movie.

What would be in it? How woould the movie progress? Would there be added drama?

How would you trope TV tropes?

Fast Eddie recieves phone call at middle of night.

Heavy breathing on the line.

Then, loudly...

"WHY IS THERE NO FUKIN QUOTE BUTTON?!"

Oh my god, you made me lol.

Yay, this thread may have promise!!

(All my other threads usually have a burst of ativity, then slowly die)

The tropers would band together to save the site from destruction due to lack of funds. Nerdy comedy with lots of Genius Bonuses ensues?

Would this win any awards, lol?

I'm not sure about that, but for some reason I don't really want this site to have publicity. Then we'd just have random people rushing here and the nerdy awesomeness would be lost. I do know we're not really going to make a movie about this, though.

Well, yeah, of course. Just, if it happened.

What kind of actors would the movie have? Really famous ones, or the kind you find off of TV ?

^ TROPERS! Or closet nerds in Hollywood.

^ I wonder if any famous actors are tropers? My cousin, who is an amateur director( he wrote and directed that movie, "Slaughter"), actually lurks around here sometimes, and that got me wondering if other kinda-famous people lurk/participate here too.

That would be... interesting. Very interesting.

Where would the movie take place, though..?

Heh, maybe Vin Diesel? I can imagine him getting here from some D&D-related forum or googlesearch.

He could play one of the guys from Military Thread

Hmmm, I thought it would involve a whole bunch of people internationally, with lots of characters.

Yes.

It'd be pretty cool if some famous authors were on TV Tropes as well.

Would it look something like this or do you want it more The Social Network-y?

^ Woah. That dude is... just... yeah.

Eh, we're TV Tropes. Forget those videos and Social Networking. WE DO OUR OWN SHIT!

Those videos were radiating Narminess.....

Why is there no updates for Cute to consume? -Cute's mouth

Here's a cake to tide you over while I think. Except not.

Some loosely connected scenes at the beginning to introduce some the tropers involved in the story and attempt to acquaint the audience with what this site is all about, representing the main demographics on this site: teenagers, college students, and the military. Insert main conflict, Genre Savvy hilarity, and perhaps a dash of romance.

COME ON, PEOPLE. WE NEED A PLOT.

...a troper who goes to lengths to document EVERY media-related item that it takes over his life.

TV Tropes Will Ruin Your Life indeed.

And of course the memes of this site would have to be featured!!

And let's have scenes like this, just for fun.

Troper: Dude, check out this video!

Friend: That is so fucked up!

Troper: I found it in a post on the TV Tropes IJBM forum. Your argument is invalid.

Friend: Huh?

Troper: Uhm... nothing.

That was totally not based on a real life event of mine.

..the hell!?

Who has the TIME to make a video like that!?

We could make something drama-ish about The Great Crash, I suppose, but that might be stretching it.

The article certainly makes it sound awesome and stuff!!

That could totally be in the Movie.

Which actress would play Trope Tan?

Kate Winslet
