This can also be inverted by fans, who see a modern adaptation of some older classic they're unfamiliar with, and incorrectly assume some newly introduced trope was part of the original work. The ultimate expression of this is the [[Unbuilt Trope]] -- someone did it previously, examined it, deconstructed it, zig-zagged it, all spectacularly, finished the story's run, but is now remembered mostly nostalgically, not for its trope.
 
See also the more extreme [[Fleeting Demographic Rule]]. Compare with classical music [[Covered Up]], [[NamesName's the Same]], [[Popcultural Osmosis]], [[Seinfeld Is Unfunny]], [[Revival By Commercialization]], [[Sequel Displacement]], and the [[Weird Al Effect]]. Somewhat related to [[Adaptation Displacement]]. Contrast with [[Newer Than They Think]]. Do not confuse with [[Older Than They Look]]. There will be a short quiz at the end of class.
 
For examples of people referencing trope in fiction, see [[ItsIt's Been Done]].
