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.

  • Static Shock had a lot of great moments, but there were several in "Future Shock". Right when Static is teleported to the future, he ends up in the Batcave and is attacked by Terry.
Cquote1

 Static: Batman's not going to be happy about how you're treating his guests.

Terry: First off, we don't have guests here. Second off, I'm Batman.

Static: Yeah, and I'm Beyonce.

Bruce: *later walks in* What's going on here?!

Terry: He says his name is Beyonce.

  • "Out of Africa" featuring the immortal "I too have often wondered about the stripes".
    • The scenes in his two appearances where the African hero Anansi is mistaken for another spider-based superhero... though he does seem pretty good-natured about it.
Cquote1

 Virgil: Hit him with a web blast! (doing the web-ball gesture)

Anansi: I'm not that kind of spider.

Cquote2
      • And the gag continues in "Out of Africa":
Cquote1

Anansi: I get that a lot.

  • Virgil has confided in Richie about a certain secret — not his Secret Identity, just the fact that A. J. McLean is in town. Richie blabs to Daisy at school, who posts it on the school website. Virgil, at home, goes to log onto the school website, and Richie — whom we have last seen at school, being offered a cheeseburger — explodes through Virgil's bedroom door, right as Virgil turns on his computer. Watch it here (key scene starts at 2:08).
  • Virgil has just awakened in the Batcave where Alfred is tending to his wounds.
Cquote1

 Virgil: Who're you?

Alfred: Batman.

Virgil: I don't think so.

Alfred: Just once I'd like someone to believe that.

Cquote1

 Hotstreak: It's wrong, it's all wrong! The movie stinks! I give it two thumbs down!

Hotstreak: Have you seen it? Somebody has got to send a message!

Cquote2
Cquote1

 Gear: Ooh, ooh, ooh! Can I come too?

Hawkgirl: This isn't a field trip.

Gear: Please ohh please! You can stuff me in the stowaway bin, and when I get up there, I'll stand in the corner. You can choose which one!

--

Hawkgirl: Hey! Remember your promise about staying in the corner!

Gear: B-but-!

Hawkgirl: In. The. Corner.

Gear: Aww..

  • Richie(Recently gifted with Super Intelligence) being challenged to solve a ridiculously hard equation.
Cquote1

 Richie: Four over Pi.

Teacher: Maybe if you payed more attention...what did you just say?

Richie: The answer. Four over Pi.

Cquote2
  • From "Toys in the Hood". Superman saves Static and Gear from a giant robot monkey attack, and later Clark Kent interviews Virgil and Richie about it. When Virgil says that Superman might have helped Static a little, Clark Kent responds by asking where Virgil and Richie were when it happened. Virgil and Richie both go into contradictory explanations, with Virgil's ending in "...and that's why you're such a good reporter!", and Richie's involving a dispute over what the definition of "it" is.
