This image was downvoted in the Image Suggestion thread. Other ideas?

I downvoted the OP for the poor quality and the chance of a crop or resize hurting it further. No other ideas ATM.

Here's an alternative from Haruhi, though I'm not sure we can picture "climax" and "concert" in the same picture.

[up] Is that actually taken from the "climax" of the work it's taken from?

[up] Not really...it's about 3/4 of the way through the first season, but I wouldn't consider it a true climax.

I'll come up with my own suggestions—would you prefer this one from Josie and the Pussycats or this higher quality image also from Rat Race?

[up][up] Do either of my suggestions work?

Not really seeing the 'climax' in either suggestion...the description suggests things action scenes at the concert or lovers reuniting, to start with, although no suggestions come to mind atm.

I’m starting to wonder if this is going to end up being a BUPKIS case.

Should it be scrapped from the list for being a non-example, then?

We're pretty much at the clocking point, so can we hook a crowner?

[up] I don't think anyone has made one.

I have yet to see a suggestion that properly covers the climax part of the trope.

[up] 11's pretty good in that regard. Looks climatic at least.

11 looks like a promotional poster instead of a climax. [tdown]

The trope seems to have quite the strict definition. It comes in two forms: the Action movie and Romcom. I think that the pic would have to illustrate both versions, and none of the suggestions does that.

Speaking of trope definitions. Should the trope be TRS'd? Some of the examples don't fit either of the versions.

Spiral out, keep going.

TRS yes, there are plenty of other movies and series that have a climax at a concert, like a show about a band for one thing.

Honestly I would split this into 2, one where the climax is events around a concert such as preventing a terrorist attack at a concert and such and then a trope about the climax being about the concert specifically, which usually spends the entire episode, movie and/or series building up to it.

Also 11 is a movie poster, well a key visual which is basically the same thing, but its obvious that the concert is the climax considering how much tension in it.

[up] It just looks like dramatic imagery to me, I wouldn't necessarily interpret it as a climactic moment.

Reclocked to give more discussion time.

Yeah, it looks like a poster for a music story.

The title's also pretty restrictive. It doesn't have to be a concert, just any big public event...although still no suggestions on my end.

So the clock's up; should we start up a crowner or take this trope to TRS?
