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.

  • Hey, It's That Dog!: George was played by the same dog who played Asta in the The Thin Man movies.
  • Playing Against Type: Cary Grant, known for playing cool and charming guys, plays a mild-mannered, dorky scientist.
    • Likewise, Katharine Hepburn, typically cast as a hyper-intelligent, on-the-ball, Defrosting Ice Queen sort, as the scatterbrained Susan.
    • And finally, a jaguar as a leopard.
  • Throw It In: "I just went GAY all of a sudden!"
  • What Might Have Been: Howard Hawks' 1964 comedy Man's Favorite Sport? is an intentional Homage to Bringing Up Baby, and Hawks only cast Rock Hudson and Paula Prentiss as the leads in the later film after trying unsuccessfully to coax Cary Grant and Katharine Hepburn into reuniting for the project.
