TranceAddict Forums Archive > Main Forums > Chill Out Room TV Tropes View this Thread in Original format MrJiveBoJingles Found an interesting site: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HomePage It's basically a Wikipedia for types of characters, situations, plot elements, and story arcs that occur in TV shows, movies, and books. The articles are mostly short but heavily interlinked, and I'm having a lot of fun clicking through them. Some examples: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.p...anItsNotAwesome http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/SceneryGorn http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.p...omTheRevelation http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Fauxreigner http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.p...heCameraRunning http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.p...DoLoveEachOther MrJiveBoJingles Here's a ridiculously overused one: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/OneWomanWail :D Sushipunk Oh yeah, you're lovin' the internet again, aren't you? :p SYSTEM-J TV Tropes will eat your life. At least until you realise it's less about delineating the tropes and more about anime fanboys posting endless obscure and boring examples of each trope. I did love "The computer is a cheating bastard" though. MrJiveBoJingles quote: Originally posted by SYSTEM-J TV Tropes will eat your life.

Yeah, I just scroll through the anime crap to get to the film, TV, and book examples. SYSTEM-J Well the problem remains: the tropers have hideous taste. I was just reading "Literary" examples from a bloody Warhammer novel, while some critical genius was praising HP Lovecraft's writing. The endless links mean it remains addictive in spite of this.
