Hi
It's been so long since I've seen ''Who Framed Roger Rabbit" that I have no idea what's happening in the current. Seconding a pull.
Perpetually Confused
^ I do see it listed in the examples, but as described it's misusing the trope. TBH, the name isn't probably doing this trope any favors.
You've got roaming bands of armed, aggressive, tyrannical plumbers coming to your door, saying "Use our service, or else!"
Filthy casual
Pull regardless of replacement.
(Annoyed grunt)
Are there even any correct examples on the page? I only took a quick glance, but all I saw were examples of living shadows.

true, need a clean-up
Somebody get this freaking duck away from me!
This whole page looks like it might need to get the axe. Nearly every entry is not an example, the quote is not an example, the picture is not an example.

Hi
Pull the pic and send it to TRS?

I wasn't exaggerating before. There'll be like five entries left on the page if we delete all the ones that aren't examples.
^ I think you are too hard on this. Most examples talk about some kind of interaction between character and shadow.

And in nearly all of them the shadow is somehow animate and interacting back, when the trope is when the shadow is just a shadow.
The crucial distinction between this and Living Shadow seems to be whether the interaction is only in one character's imagination, but it's hard to tell, the "description" is only one sentence.
Becky: Who are you? The Mysterious Stranger: An angel. Huck: What's your name? The Mysterious Stranger: Satan.
Perpetually Confused
Yeah this might need a TRS visit.
Limiting it to imaginary interaction will indeed cut the example list down to one or two items. Another case for TRS, methinks.
We can probably pull the image before sending it to TRS, as it doesn't really illustrate the current definition or Living Shadow.
Agreed on pulling it regardless for the reasons stated ; I'll start a TRS thread.

Hi
Going ahead and pulling the pic and closing the thread. We can revisit this if the TRS thread resolves to keep this page around.

Bad example, and bad pic. For clarity, according to the description this is for when a character has imaginary conversations with their own shadow, not cases dealing with an actual Living Shadow. It doesn't even really show any interaction between the two.
Haven't found a replacement that we can use, but the current is actively misleading. Pull.
