"One of us has to die!" on Drawing Straws should have Original Position Fallacy as a secondary trope, as Graham Chapman's character is clearly not expecting the Spanish—ahem, not expecting to draw the short straw.

ETA: Also please add Recap.Monty Pythons Flying Circus S 2 E 12 as a video source.

Please make the following edits:

  • Add the secondary trope Affectionate Nickname to the "What'cha Doin'?" video from the My Significance Sense Is Tingling page. In the video, Candace calls her boyfriend Jeremy "my little drummer boy" and he doesn't take it well.
  • Add the secondary trope Attending Your Own Funeral to the "To my children I leave 13 ct" video from the Passed-Over Inheritance page. In the video, Taylor Swift is shown peeking out of her coffin at her funeral.
  • Add the secondary trope Brain Monster to the "What Killed The Dinosaurs?" video from the Phlebotinum Killed the Dinosaurs page. In the video, the Big Brain appears to be nothing more than a gigantic floating brain.
  • Add the secondary trope Dramatic Drop to the "How Many Toads. . ." video from the Actually Pretty Funny page. In the video, Anne is so shocked at the joke Hop Pop told that she drops her fork.
  • Add the secondary trope Eye Glasses to the "The End...or not" video from the Fake-Out Fade-Out page. In the video, Irwin's eyes don't appear to be separate from his glasses.
  • Add the secondary trope Learned from the News to the "Black Widow Rom Com" video from the Real Trailer, Fake Movie page. In the video, Black Widow learns from watching the news that her boyfriend Ultron threw a bus at the Fashion Weekly building where she works.
  • Add the secondary trope Magic Wand to the "Fairy Godmother" video from the Cinderella page. In the video, Cinderella's fairy godmother uses her wand along with the magic words "Bibbidi Bobbidi Boo" to transform a pumpkin into a carriage.
  • Add the secondary trope Mother Nature to the "Moana Myth Prologue" video from the Myth Prologue page. In the video, Te Fiti is a goddess who uses her heart to create life across the world. (Te Fiti is also pictured as the image for Mother Nature.)
  • Add the secondary tropes Conveniently an Orphan and Have a Nice Death to the "50 Ways to Die in Minecraft" video from the Missing Mom page. In the video, Aladdin's mother is killed, presumably by the writers themselves. A message pops up at the bottom of the screen that says she was "slain for plot convenience."

"Yukari and Osaka" in Too Much Information should have Road Apples since the thing that Yukari considers too much information is Osaka's point about stepping in dog crap without realizing.

"Zooble" in Flipping the Bird should have a Censor Box since their middle finger is cut off by a censor box.

"Big Baby Il Duce March" in "The Villain Sucks" Song should have Toilet Humor since the song itself is all about comparing Mussolini to crap.

For "Am I Being Obtuse?" (Soft-Spoken Sadist) from The Shawshank Redemption, the secondary tropes An Offer You Can't Refuse, Prison Rape and To the Pain should be added in when available:

  • An Offer You Can't Refuse: Warden Samuel Norton does this to Andy if Andy tries to back off from contributing to his scams. The threats include transfer to a cell block where the Sisters would rape him, and the destruction of Andy's library. Andy does initially go along with this, but then it's subverted hard when Andy decides to pull a Screw This, I'm Outta Here.
  • Prison Rape: At one point, the warden threatens to throw Andy in with the "perverts and the sodomites". Andy is actually a victim of prison rape earlier on, before the warden found his use for the former accountant for dubious accounting purposes and put him with a tamer population (along with his chief rapist being brutally beaten to warn off the rest).
  • To the Pain: After Tommy is killed, Andy refuses to continue to do Norton's work. Norton threatens to take away Andy's privileges from him, destroy the library and lock him up with the rapists if he quits.

For "Monsters, Inc." (Wham Line) from Monsters, Inc., a retitle to "It's yours" would be greatly appreciated and the secondary tropes Evil All Along, Oh, Crap!, Slasher Smile and Wham Shot should be added in when available:

Many thanks and kind regards.

[up] I'm honestly kind of wary about that video being on Faint in Shock when the "shock" part is only conveyed through the description.

[up][up] Unsure if Evil All Along is conveyed out of context in the Waternoose video, but I'll add the rest for that one. Going to double check the Shawshank ones because I need to make sure the tropes are evident in the video.

Please make the following edits:

  • Add the secondary trope Deliberately Monochrome to the "Beyonce, 'Sorry' intro" video from the Spoken Word in Music page. The video is in black and white despite being from the recent year of 2016.
  • Add the secondary trope Everything Is an Instrument to the "Under the Sea" video from the Awesome Underwater World page. In the video, Sebastian "plays" clams like a musical instrument, and they sound like steel drums.
  • Add the secondary trope Eye Glasses to the "Obligatory Cornfed" video from the Mandatory Line page. In the video, Duckman's eyes appear to be entirely contained within his glasses, even when shown from behind.
  • Add the secondary trope Freeze-Frame Bonus to the "Fry gets Frozen" video from the Human Popsicle page. In the video, Nibbler's shadow can be seen next to Fry's fallen party horn for a split second. Nibbler's appearance 1000 years in the past is eventually explained by a Time Travel Episode.
  • Add the secondary trope Magic Wand to the "The Blue Fairy" video from the Fairy Godmother page. In the video, the Blue Fairy uses her wand to magically bring Pinocchio to life.
  • Add the secondary trope Moose and Maple Syrup to the "Booted from Canada" video from the Persona Non Grata page. In the video, Lincoln turns down maple syrup at a restaurant in Canada and everyone gasps, including a moose outside the restaurant. This is considered such a severe offense that it gets him banned from Canada.
  • Add the secondary trope Sinister Sentient Sun to the "Chowder" video from the Excellent Judge of Character page. In the video, the sun is shown to have been holding a spiked bat, waiting to ambush Chowder and his friends.
  • Add the secondary trope A Truce While We Gawk to the "Darthenshmirtz" video from the Hoist by His Own Petard page. In the video, Phineas and Ferb stop fighting for five seconds as they hear Darthenshmirtz fall from a hole in the ceiling and watch him land in between them.
  • Add the secondary trope Unfortunate Item Swap to the "Phineas and Ferb: Star Wars" video from the Answer Cut page. In the video, Buford opens a bag with socks for Darth Vader in it. A bag with his sandwich in it has been given to Darth Vader instead.
  • Add the secondary trope Walk the Plank to the "50 Ways to Die in Minecraft" video from the Not in Front of the Parrot! page. In the video, a pirate is forced to walk off a plank and into the ocean for insulting his captain behind his back.

The two videos on RWBYV 9 E 11 Volume 9 Bonus Ending Animatic are not videos from the animatic, but from Judgmental Critter's video on the animatic with audible narration and editing. Ergo they need to be sourced to Web Original or Web Video, not the RWBY animatic's recap page.

It's someone conversing the tropes that do appear in those animatics specifically, while showing example footage from the animatic, so I think sourcing them is fair. Does Judgmental Critter have a page on this wiki that can also serve as a source?

Please make the following edits:

  • Add the secondary trope Literal Cliffhanger to the "Get me 'Off This Cliff'!" video from the Literal Genie page. In the video, Cliff Hanger is literally hanging from a cliff by a branch sticking out of it.
  • Add the secondary trope Loves Only Gold to the "Mine, Mine, Mine" video from the Villain Song page. In the video, Governor Ratcliffe seems to care about nothing but gold and the status that comes with owning a large amount of it.
  • Add the secondary trope Magic Potion to the "Potion of Generation" video from the Body Horror page. In the video, a witch accidentally drinks a Potion of Generation instead of a Potion of Regeneration, causing her to grow an extra head and extra limbs.
  • Add the secondary trope Mecha-Mooks to the "Trade Fed Ship Destroyed" video from the The Mothership page. In the video, Anakin easily defeats the battle droids in spite of being a young child.
  • Add the secondary trope Mouse Trap to the "Tom and Jerry tales' theme" video from the Instrumental Theme Tune page. In the video, Tom lays out three traps for Jerry (who, to be clear, is a mouse) and Jerry manages to take the cheese from all three traps.
  • Add the secondary trope Rhyming Wizardry to the "The Blue Fairy" video from the Fairy Godmother page. In the video, the Blue Fairy says these rhyming words to bring Pinocchio to life: "Little puppet made of pine / Wake, the gift of life is thine."
  • Add the secondary trope Scatting to the "King Louie" video from the Jungle Jazz page. In the video, Baloo and King Louie both sing nonsensical lyrics such as "Abba-doo-dee" and "Ebba-doba-doy."
  • Add the secondary trope Taunting the Transformed to the "The Spot's Origins" video from the Create Your Own Hero page. In the video, a group of Alchemax employees are seen pointing and laughing at the Spot after he gets covered with holes.

  • Add the secondary trope Wrong Genre Savvy to the "RedstoneNed's wish" video from the Idiot Ball page. In the video, after he wishes to become immortal, RedstoneNed suspects that if he stays immortal, he'll just end up realizing that Living Forever Sucks, so he wishes to become mortal again. He immediately dies because he was swimming in lava when he made the wish.

On Ouran High School Host Club, for the video "The Host Club's Dog" (example of Work Off the Debt), please add Color Failure as a secondary trope.

At the end of the video, Haruhi loses all color out of shock and despair when she realizes she had become the club's "dog" (that is, indentured servant).

Thanks in advance.

  • Add the secondary trope Cephalothorax to the "Darren Is Not a Dick" video from the Redemption Equals Death page. In the video, Darren Cross, having been transformed into MODOK, doesn't have a torso. Instead, his arms and legs come out of his giant head.
  • Add the secondary trope Fauns and Satyrs to the "One last hope" video from the Trainee from Hell page. In the video, Phil sings a song about training Hercules. Phil's goat horns and goat legs are clearly visible, and he has a human torso so he can't be a talking goat.
  • Add the secondary trope Give Me a Sign to the "Candace" video from the Glass Smack and Slide page. In the video, an unnamed man holding hands with his girlfriend says "If this wasn't meant to be, someone give me a sign."

  • Add the secondary trope Ray Gun to the "Doppler's Shot" video from the Exactly What I Aimed At page. In the video, Dr. Doppler and the pirates are shooting at each other, but not with bullets. Some kind of energy or plasma is coming out of their guns instead.
  • Add the secondary trope Unrealistic Black Hole to the "MY MANWICH!" video from the Running Gag page. In the video, a black hole is seen floating in a classroom, and Hermes can safely sit next to it without being sucked in.
  • Add the secondary trope Video Full of Film Clips to the "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" video from the Pop-Star Composer page. The video is a music video for Elton John's "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" and it's full of film clips from The Lion King (1994).
