I like how you can tell two different people wrote this entry since "black" goes from being capitalized to uncapitalized.

Less for TV Tropes in specific but also the film, its just me or the ending, as they point, just doesnt make sense for the message?

Yeah yeah zio propaganda, but it messes up with the message, Derek stopped being a nazi because he started a friendship with that black guy and he found that his fellow nazis dont care about him at all. And yet, his brother is them killed by a black kid.

The original script was for him to become a nazi again, but it was cut, but them, why keep the death?

That page is meant for bad shows that seem to deliberately fuck up trying to sell itself. The argument they have for Gundam AGE sucks, but that's a show that actually belongs on this page because it's so terribly written that it fails to understand how to be a kids show - which was the explicit mission statement of this Gundam, since it wanted to compete with Yokai Watch or something - and instead tries to cargo cult at being a Gundam show without having a single original thought. The Velma entry on that page is actually pretty well written.
But it's also pretty obvious the page is a stealth complaint thread that people are using to criticize stuff while under the thumb of the negativity purge. When your only alternative is a page as crap as "Too Bleak, Stopped Caring", I don't blame them.

Anyway, just learned they cut "Every Year They Fizzle Out" a year and a half ago:

So, this guy had two accounts: One that was tied to his work computer, the second for everywhere else. Guess which one that he lost access to?

Now with that out the way, the jannies fully expect you to keep track of your accounts' status regardless of whether you actually had access to it. And the guy is chickening out of his appeal, for some retarded reason
 
The Children of Men Laconic page seems a bit odd, it is missing a few things.

I love the logic there. If the population is declining, then import migrants.

Okay, for the sake of argument, let's just say that there is nothing questionable or controversial about that type of plan. More people in your country = good.

Why would their government's allow them to leave? The population crisis is not local, it is global. The Earth's population with literally one exception is 18+, and dying off. A child in the setting is so impactful that it stops a fucking gun fight when the combatants hear it cry. Society is so damaged socially by the knowledge that mankind is dying, that everything is falling apart, and Britain has basically gone totalitarian out of necessity. People kill themselves on the regular. Is it just possible that introducing a bunch of random people from disparate cultures may not be conducive to survival?

But the dumbest fucking part is that Laconic is just to summarize in a laconic fashion. Hell, the tag line for the film is more informative than the laconic page. Neither mentions the main plot thread of saving the possibly only pregnant woman in the world, at least the tag line from one of the posters (and graffiti in the film) gives you an idea of how fucked things are and sets the tone.

"Last one to die, please turn out the light."
 
It is one of those things that shows up way more than you may think in fiction.

Not even joking. Lori Lemaris was one of Superman's girlfriends and first appeared in a wheelchair only for the story to later reveal that she was a mermaid all along back in 1959.

Now that makes me curious: would it be able to include adjacent concepts of legless creatures using mobility devices in the trope parameters? That would certainly help fill the list and make it more justifiable, though you are right in that is is common enough to be worthy of some acknowledgment. Not that that seems to actually matter to the people that make and delete tropes half the time.
