Agree that the Youtube link can stay, I'd just wish the formatting in video descriptions would allow clean links.

On Tekken: Blood Vengeance, for the video "Motorbike vs Truck" (example of Car Fu), please add Three-Point Landing as a secondary trope. Nina Williams does a textbook superhero landing toward the end of the video, after the fiery explosion.

Thanks in advance.

Please make the following edits:

  • Add the secondary trope Casual Danger Dialogue to the "Mobius Dick" video from the Monster Whale page. In the video, a Monster Whale is heading straight for Bender and Leela. Bender yells "Holy crap! It's a giant space fish!" Leela casually says "Actually, the space whale isn't a space fish. It's a space mammal." The space whale is now even closer, and Bender replies "Wow, interesting. I'm both impressed and being eaten."
  • Add the secondary trope Changing Clothes Is a Free Action to the "Parlez Vous Woo" video from the Lustful Melt page. In the video, upon eating his signature can of spinach, Popeye instantly changes into a tuxedo.
  • Add the secondary trope Department of Redundancy Department to the "Burdine Maxwell" video from the Gold Digger page. In the video, Burdine cares so much about Damon being rich that she mentions it twice.
  • Add the secondary trope Hollywood Darkness to the "The Grinch Steals Christmas" video from the Crime Spree Montage page. In the video, the Grinch is able to steal everything from the Whos because it's nighttime and they're all asleep. Yet, it actually looks rather bright outside, with the sky barely dark enough to tell that it's nighttime.
  • Add the secondary trope I'm Melting! to the "Glass Half Full" video from the Actually a Good Idea page. In the video, one of the witches melts when Rumpelstiltskin throws a glass of water at her, and she yells "What a world, what a world!" as a reference to The Wizard of Oz.
  • Add the secondary trope Iris Out to the "Amazy Dayzee" video from the Metal Slime page. In the video, the screen closes in on Mario in the shape of a star as he enters the level.
  • Add the secondary trope Micro Dieting to the "The Grinch 'Emotional Eating'" video from the Comfort Food page. In the video, the Grinch is served just one bean and a leaf because he has no other food left.
  • Add the secondary trope Odd Reaction Out to the "From Skanky to Sleazy" video from the Here We Go Again! page. In the video, Beef is the only one who doesn't like Skanky, a toy Christmas tree.
  • Add the secondary trope Out-of-Character Alert to the "Metrocity" video from the Accent Upon The Wrong Syllable page. In the video, Tighten figures out that Megamind was pretending to be Metro Man because he pronounced Metro City as "Metrocity," a mistake that only Megamind would make.
  • Add the secondary trope Planar Shockwave to the "Great Disturbance In The Force" video from the My Significance Sense Is Tingling page. In the video, the destruction of Alderaan creates an expanding ring of fire.

Is there a way to check if videos link to no-longer-existent pages, without going video by video? I just noticed that the "Astolfo is a boy" video for Unsettling Gender-Reveal links to LightNovel.Fate Apocrypha, but the Light Novel namespace was removed and changed to Literature. No idea how many others are like this, but they should be changed so they actually show up on the work page.

Change one of the sources of the video "More Than You Bargained For" from The Simpsons Movie to The Simpsons because that clip is not from the movie.

Could someone please change the source for the only current video example for Helldivers to Helldivers II, as it's the opening cinematic of the sequel and not the first game?

For the Scarface example for Even Evil Has Standards, can someone add Insulting from Behind the Language Barrier as a secondary trope?

Reason: After Alberto refuses to go with Tony's suggestion to wait until the journalist is alone so they can kill him without killing his wife and children, Tony tells Ernie and Chi Chi "This fucking guy" since he knows Alberto doesn't understand English.

The video "Glorious Liability" should be moved from Outside Xbox to Oxventure. The latter is a spin-off of the former, and the video was uploaded before the two pages were separated.

#4855: There's three videos titled "The Grinch Steals Christmas." Which one do you think fits the trope best? [up][up][up] I'll put it on both.

Movieclips isn't necessarily an "official source" though. I don't think it passes muster. That said, I usually let the mods decide these.

[up][up][up] I was originally talking about the video from the WesternAnimation.How The Grinch Stole Christmas page. However, the video for The Grinch (2018) might fit the trope better because it's easier to tell that it's nighttime.

Should the video example "You. Are. A. TOY!" be Meaningful Echo or Ironic Echo? Both are similar but tend to be very confusing...

[up] It may be an Ironic Echo, but there's not enough context in the video to establish the irony.

Yeah, I think to establish it's an echo at all, you need to include the clip from Toy Story where Woody yells at Buzz.

Please make the following edits:

  • Add the secondary trope Bad Guy Bar to the "The High Evolutionary" video from the Even Evil Has Standards page. In the video, the High Evolutionary is hanging out at a bar with various other villains including Voldemort, Darth Sidious and the Joker.
  • Add the secondary trope Bait-and-Switch Comment to the "Cricket & Zillion" video from the Prince and Pauper page. In the video, Cricket says "With this pop star fella out of the picture, his life of fame and fortune could be mine!" Nancy replies "Whoa, whoa, whoa there Cricket." Since she's his mother, you'd expect her to disapprove of his plan to pose as Zillion. However, she instead says "Ours. Could be ours. Don't you dare leave your mama out of this!"
  • Add the secondary trope Calling Your Attacks to the "Blue Shell!!!" video from the Suicide Attack page. In the video, the Koopa General yells "Blue Shell!" before getting inside his blue shell, flying around Mario and Donkey Kong, and exploding.
  • Add the secondary trope Cardiovascular Love to the "Quasi doesn't get Esmerelda" video from the Did Not Get the Girl page. In the video, when Quasimodo sees Esmerelda kissing Pheobus, he takes an ace of hearts, representing his love for Esmerelda, and rips it in half, representing his broken heart.
  • Add the secondary trope I Heard That to the "Grunka Lunka Dunkety..." video from the Charlie and the Chocolate Parody page. In the video, a Grunka-Lunka calls Glurmo a hardass to which Glurmo replies, "I heard that."
  • Add the secondary trope Roofhopping to the "Whoa" video from the Dull Surprise page. In the video, Morpheus jumps at least 20 feet high across a street, demonstrating this ability to Neo.
  • Add the secondary trope Speak in Unison to the "Fireworks" video from the Founding Day page. In the video, everyone at the Continental Congress yells "We're free!" at the same time.
  • Add the following secondary tropes to the "Fairy Godmother" video from the Shrek 2 page:
    • Animate Inanimate Object: The Fairy Godmother brings all the furniture in the room to life, which then begins singing along to her song.
    • Marilyn Maneuver: When the Fairy Godmother gives Fiona "some crystal glass pumps," her dress is lifted upward by a sudden gust of wind, and she tries to push it back down.
    • Magic Wand: The Fairy Godmother's wand, which has a star on the end, is what brings the furniture to life and gives Fiona the crystal glass pumps.
