Depends if the movie is animated, for that matter. As some are and some aren't. Also, can't tropes be in multiple categories anyway?

If it’s a full-length movie I think it should be listed under Film.

And tropes can of course be listed in several categories, because they may have examples from different genres, but I don’t think the same work-specific example can.

I'm personally like putting them the

Films — Live-Action or Films — Animation

Media category. But that's what I think.

I'd put them under Films, either Live-Action or Animation depending on the medium.

Yeah, Live-Action TV is generally for TV shows, not necessarily for "anything shown on TV".

This is a 2018 query, is there a need to answer?

^I think I've seen some inconsitency. Mostly in some pages in the Derivative Works/ namespace.

Man I didn't even see the date of the OP

^ In the future you probably should just make a new ATT thread rather than bumping an old query
