Suggestion: Eiffel Tower Effect

Go To

Current is a lazy shot of the Eiffel Tower. Suggestions are from Ratatouille and Babe: Pig in the City. The view from Babe's window at the animal hotel is a parody on this trope. If you look really close you will see amongst others: the Hollywood sign, the Golden Gate Bridge, the Sydney Opera House, the Statue of Liberty, the Eiffel Tower, Big Ben. It's kinda subtle though in 350x.

I prefer the Ratatouille pic.

Babe sure is funny, but Ratatouille is clearer, so I'll go with 1.1.

I prefer one that isn't just the same landmark as mentioned in the trope name.

Establishing shot of the Taj Mahal in Octopussy to distance it from the trope name, though I personally still think Ratatouille is stronger.

The Babe one is funny, but it's too busy to be useful. The Taj Mahal is good in theory, but without something in the foreground it just looks like a stock photo. The Ratatouille one is probably best so far.

That pun is horrible.

I approve. [tup]

That probably requires a note, as done for the caption on Pun.
