Line 1:
{{trope}}
== # ==
* ''[[Tenth Kingdom]]'' is not the sequel to ''[[Romance of the Three Kingdoms]]''. Nor is it a prequel to ''Twelfth Kingdom''.
* ''[[100 Bullets]]'' is not about artificial ammo limitations in [[First-Person Shooter|First Person Shooters]]s and other action games, especially in cases where the quantity exceeds the weapon's capacity.
* ''[[12 Monkeys]]'' contains not one single monkey. [[Everything's Better with Monkeys|(Talk about disappointment!)]]
* ''[[28 Days Later]]'' is not a sequel to ''28 Days''.
Line 15 ⟶ 16:
* ''[[1942]]'' and ''[[Battlefield (series)|Battlefield]] 1942'' are completely different games.
* Nobody gets abducted in ''[[Abduction]]''. ''Nobody.'' Karen gets very temporarily kidnapped while on the train, but hardly enough so to qualify for the title.
== A ==
* ''[[Absolute Power]]'' is not a trope about obtaining absolute power. Reading it is not likely to [[Rule 34|corrupt absolutely]]. Reading [[Tropes Will Ruin Your Life|this site]] just might, but we wouldn't recommend trying to take over the world afterwards.
** And it is not the [[Pirate]] counterpart to ''[[Ninja|Real Ultimate Power]]''.
Line 60 ⟶ 62:
* ''[[Awesome Series]]'' is not a page for [[Gushing About Shows You Like]].
* ''[[Axe Cop]]'' is not a command to get rid of a policeman.
== B ==
* ''[[Backyard Wrestling]]'' is not part of the ''[[Backyard Sports]]'' series.
* ''[[Bad Movie Beatdown]]'' is not a show about watching [[A Date with Rosie Palms]] from someone with a bad movie [[Fetish]].
Line 156 ⟶ 159:
* ''[[Burn After Reading]]'' is not some propaganda material straight out of the ''[[Fahrenheit 451]]'' universe.
* ''[[Burn Notice]]'' is not "fyi [[Man On Fire|you're on fire]]."
== C ==
* ''[[Captain Carrot and His Amazing Zoo Crew]]'' has absolutely nothing to do with [[Discworld|Ankh-Morpork's city guard]]. Especially not Angua. Be glad she wasn't here to hear that.
* ''[[Carmen]]'' is not an opera about automobile-themed superheroes. Nor is it about a [[Carmen Sandiego|gang of elusive punny-named thieves]].
Line 204 ⟶ 208:
* ''[[Cracker]]'' is not about [[The Cracker]]. Or [[Acceptable Targets|stupid/boring white people]]. Or the snack food. Or the rock band.
** Or firecrackers.
* ''[[Critical Mass]]'' - it doesn't matter which one - is not about the [[Limit Break|limit breaks]]s in ''[[The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction]]'' and its [[Spiritual Successor]] ''[[Prototype (video game)|Prototype]]''. It is not an extreme version of ''[[Mass Effect]]'' neither.
* ''[[The Crow]]'' is not named after the gold robot from ''[[Mystery Science Theater 3000]]''
** Or Crow Hogan from ''[[Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's]]''.
Line 212 ⟶ 216:
* ''Cyber Cycles'' is not about a cycle of cybersex.
** Or the [[Cool Bike|light cycles]] from ''[[Tron]]'' and ''[[Tron: Legacy]]''.
== D ==
* ''[[Da Capo]]'' is not connected to [[The Mafia]].
* "The Joker" (the [[Steve Miller Band]] song) is [[The Joker|not]] a [[Villain Song]] but about a guy who's many things including a joker.
Line 289 ⟶ 294:
** You are so small, it's funny to me!
* ''[[Dynasty]]'' is not about a royal lineage (except for a season finale).
== E ==
* ''[[The Edge Chronicles]]'' is not a biography of a U2 member, nor that of a wrestler.
* ''[[Everworld]]'' is not an inverted counterpart of [[Peter Pan|Neverland]].
