The Big Bang Theory example should be removed because the Marvel Comics reference is shown to be innacurate twice in the sub-notes and also if you were to point out that Stan Lee starred in one episode.

  • Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: A very bizarre scene in an otherwise normal story that veers off into the surreal or strange. Upon exiting that scene, the plot continues on like it never happened. Audience opinion.
  • Elephant in the Living Room: A large topic or issue which should be obvious to everyone but which is deliberately or conspicuously avoided.
  • Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Something that is blatantly unusual, yet nobody seems to take notice of it, in-story.

For the Black 2/White 2 example thing, Ghetsis wasn't trying to kill the PC. He was trying to freeze them. Probably painfully but still.

I'm pretty sure that the folders on this one are out of order. Is it worth fixing?

Yes, they're out of order, but it's pretty easy to fix so I've done so.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.

hi, just wondering if the assassin's creed entry is valid as it reads more like someone complaining about the game rather than raising a point.

especially about the part where NP Cs repeat themselves...

re; the Live-Action TV reff, to the Twilight Zone episode [which appears in the Movie as well] : - this story is in fact, exactly / originally the short story "It's a Good Life" [good in italics, btw], by Jerome Bixby ... which was collected in the Science Fiction Hall of Fame [vol.1] ... the movie adds a happy ending, while the original text just carries queasily on in hellish limbo...

So... a portrait changed to something unrecognizable. And the point is?
