I don't know about the Lilianna example. In the game, they worked hard to get her to be part of the gatewatch so it's not clear to me that she's talking at the audience. But I'm leaving it because I'm not sure.

I tried to edit and the page let me know it was too long. How do we split this page up into multiple pages? I've never done it before.

I have found through experience that casting spells really works, the only person who can really affect the outcome, and make it work, is you, believe is your spell and it would work for you, I testify of the this powerful spell caster from Africa she derive are magical powers from the Indian Ocean, her spell made a get different in my life by bring my ex back home. This is the email of her translator because her does not hear English she only speak her local language email: olorunoduduwaspiritualtemple@gmail.com, he will help you and make things work out fine and great in 24hrs. Thanks to Dr James he is a great one.

Does this trope apply whenever someone in a movie says "This isn't a movie"? I don't think that's lampshading.

A while back, the image for this page was a Donald Duck comic book frame with Scrooge McDuck yelling something like: "I know all that! What do you think this is, the exposition section in some silly comic book?"

While I appreciate that the current image demonstrates literally "leaning on the fourth wall," it doesn't seem at all applicable to the trope as it's defined; instead, it seems to be an example of Painting the Medium. So, I'd strongly recommend reverting to the previous page image.

There was an example without the work title in Fan Works. If someone knows which fic was the troper talking about then add it back with the name.

• On the subject of MGS, there's an excellent fanfic where Otacon makes repeated references to fanfiction (its form, its trends, how it can Go Horribly Wrong), compares his situation to being "in a really whiny fanfiction" and, at the end of the story, remarks to Snake that "it seems like the author of a fanfic is trying to wind down."

Need help remembering: I can remember watching a scene from the last season of a sitcom (I want to say it's from the 90s) where two characters are sitting around quietly, and one of them says, "Well, it's the last season." The other looks at the first quizzically, but then the first clarifies that they're referring to something entirely different. It was a show with a solid Fourth Wall, so this was a bit of a surprise. But I can't remember which show it was.
