Tropedia

  • Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed. Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so. Our policies can be reviewed here.
  • All images MUST now have proper attribution, those who neglect to assign at least the "fair use" licensing to an image may have it deleted. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup. Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation.
  • All new trope pages will be made with the "Trope Workshop" found on the "Troper Tools" menu and worked on until they have at least three examples. The Trope workshop specific templates can then be removed and it will be regarded as a regular trope page after being moved to the Main namespace. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP.

  • Crowning Music of Awesome: For music where the main theme consists primarily of two notes, Clint Mansell's score is very effective.
  • Fridge Brilliance: Three years of 1/6th Earth gravity plays merry hell on the clones' metabolism and the 3 year placement is based on their expected life span in such conditions. As the company has been demonstrated to not particularly care about human life over profit, they essentially work their tools until they break.
  • High Octane Nightmare Fuel: Lots and lots.
  • Tear Jerker: See here.
  • Uncanny Valley: Weirdly inverted with GERTY's emoticons. While they seem artificial in the beginning, somehow the simple emotes become more and more poignant as it becomes clear how helplessly limited GERTY's range of expression is.
  • The Woobie: Sam. Poor, poor Sam.
