This thread is meant to be a place for people to ask questions and request discussion about existing page images they have concerns about; this can be used to determine if a thread should be made to replace an image.
For example, questions about Just a Face and a Caption concerns, whether a picture requires additional context, whether a picture demonstrates all of the necessary aspects or a trope, or whether a trope better demonstrates a related trope can be asked here.
Very Spooky
The Snipe Hunt image makes no sense if you haven't seen Up. Maybe there's some frames from the movie that could work paired together to make the trope clear?

back lol
That's Dr. Title, thank you!
A snipe is a type of bird, and one version of a snipe hunt is for such a bird. That said it's clearly confusing enough people to justify an image swap.
I can’t check as I’m on mobile but I’m pretty sure we had a recent thread for it.

Are you sure. I checked and their doesn't seem to be any tag

Someone made a thread for it but it hasn't been opened yet.

Yes
but it was not productive (Also Spark 9 who brought it up). Even older thread. Neither are tagged on the page but it sometimes be like that.

Gentleman Troper!
Wow, I had forgotten that I did that before.
Still, it looks like both threads clocked out for lack of discussion, rather than reached a consensus; so based on that I'd say it's reasonable the page didn't get tagged.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
Hi
I didn't close the more recent thread so it didn't get noted in the tag. Part of the problem, to me, is the caption; it needs to be something like "So it's not just a prank!" or something like that to make it more clear.

Gentleman Troper!
However, "somebody finds a bird" is still not this trope, even if the bird is called a snipe. The trope is that someone sends somebody else to find (e.g.) a bird.

Psycho Ex-Girlfriend shows a girl holding a gun to a boy's head to "make him love her". However, that strikes me as an example of Not Good with Rejection and/or Woman Scorned, rather than of this trope. As the description indicates, it is about the person who went nuts because of the break up - and the image doesn't show that.
I don't have a better suggestion yet but would like to hear some opinions on that.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
It's also pretty clunky, so I'm in to create a thread.
Gentleman Troper!
And Submarine Pirates doesn't look like pirates to me (and the submarine is hard to make out, too). A skull on the chest suggests to me that it's a standard superhero villain or some kind of a doomsday cult; pirates don't dress like that.
Rhetorical, eh? ... Eight!
The periscope and the skull shirt sells it well for me.
Agreed; this one's a Keep Until Better Image Suggested for me. They have a variation on the skull and crossbones, and their dialogue is very piratey. I would expect pirates on a submarine to dress differently than standard Dressed to Plunder.

No Man of Woman Born has the face of the Witch King, captioned with the trope name, and the face of Eowyn, caption pointing out that she is no man. I mean, I get it, but it's still too close to JAFAAC to my liking. Maybe we should have an image of Eowyn killing him, instead?

Does Attractive Zombie look "dead" enough? To me it just looks like a regular woman in a slightly bloody dress.
Is The Golden Age of Animation a spoiler, or is it out of context enough to work?

Re Attractive Zombie: IMO, no.
Gentleman Troper!
The zombie is basically JAFAAC. I don't see what the Golden Age picture is spoiling, though, so that's probably fine.
I’d actually consider Attractive Zombie Keep Until Better Image Suggested. She has Undeathly Pallor, Ethereal White Dress, and head and chest wounds (both “killshots”) which suggest undead.
Edited by Synchronicity on Aug 9th 2020 at 7:46:50 AM
Ethereal White Dress is not typically associated with zombies, but otherwise, yeah.
Hi
Same; it’s not great but is a Keep Until Better Image Suggested call from me.
Gentleman Troper!
That, and Boom, Headshot! tends to kill zombies.
I agree that she looks undead, but she doesn't look like a zombie at all.

Maybe Emily
◊ from Corpse Bride could work better for Attractive Zombie?
It's better than the current.![[tup]](https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/Thumbs_up_emoticon_3268.png "[thumb up]"){kind=small}
I don't get it.
