Jafaac/Duplicate: Token Deity

Not exactly a duplicate but it's so similar to Man In White it might as well be. Second point: JAFAAC. I suppose with the title it's obvious what the image is implying but still. My main issue is the "duplication".

I've got no suggestions... guess something of one of the examples doing something god-like would be pretty decent. *ponders*

I am arguing not pulling.

Everyone knows Morgan Freeman is god.

I agree with OP that this one isn't very demonstrative...

^^So...if you found a person on this planet who hadn't seen the movie, you'd find that odd?

Because that's what "everyone knows" means in terms of JAFAAC exemption.

Maybe I should have plot holed that under meme.

It has been a meme that Morgan Freeman has a magical voice. When he played god in Bruce Almighty it was upgraded to Morgan Freeman is God.

Basically I shit posted. Sorry.

Still against the pull.

So...if your reason for being against the pull was a joke, do you have a non-joke one?

Sure. The title is Token Deity. There is a black man in the photo.

Not the best picture, but I am in the "don't pull barley functioning pictures until something better is found." camp.

But it doesn't show a token deity. It just shows some black guy.

It's not a barely-functioning image.

It's basically a duplicate of A Form You Are Comfortable With (they're from the same scene and functionally identical). One or the other should be replaced.

Edit: Waaaitaminit. Man In White, A Form You Are Comfortable With and Token Deity all have essentially the same pic. (With MIW and AFYACW being the same one but at different scales). We need 2 replacements.

How about this◊

Resolution could be better, but otherwise that would be perfect for any of these.

Now that is a good picture.

Resolution aside, that is. But that can be improved on.

I don't even think the resolution is much of a problem.

Okay, how about we round it out with these pics of aliens from Invader Zim for A Form You Are Comfortable With?

"Wait, would sandals have been more comfortable?"

Here's◊ a better resolution version of the Morgan Freeman pic.

Oooh, I like that one.

The Form one is really good as well. A good before and after — would it be easier to make a separate discussion for that page as well or just keep it in here? That's a bundle of JAFAAC to boot (the current MF image that is).

Nice!

Well, we can change the discussion title to show we're handling three tropes. However we don't have to start new topics for each trope, like what happened with IP thread for Competitive Balance and its subtropes, having it done in one may be more efficient.

Bumping for resolution.

I vote for the Freeman water one. Perhaps it would be best to have a discussion on whether or not to change the Form one simply for the sake of doing it - plus other people could have other suggestions.

Clock is set. Any objections to switching out the current pic for the "standing on water" pic above?

Nope, I like it more than the current one.

Clock's up. The "standing on water" pic is up, potholed, and tagged; locking up.
