Johnbobb 08/19/18 9:02:55 PM #2:	Full Results https://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Best_of_the_Trope --- Genius Bruiser - Beast (X-Men) / Bane (Batman) Haunted Castle - Dracula's Castle (Castlevania) Adolf Hitlarious - Downfall Meme Body Surf - Mario (Super Mario Odyssey) Stepford Smiler - Sayori (Doki Doki Literature Club) / Patrick Bateman (American Psycho) The Juggernaut - Juggernaut (Marvel) Deader Than Disco - Instrument-based rhythm games Today's tropes is the Uncanny Valley https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/UncannyValley The more human something non-human acts or looks, the more endearing it would be to a human being. However, at some point, the likeness seems too strong and yet somehow, fundamentally differentand it just comes across as a very strange human being. At this point, the acceptance drops suddenly, changing to a powerful negative reaction. Thus, things that look somewhat human, but are clearly not such as C-3PO (in Star Wars) or a Golem produce an accepting reaction, while things that are very nearly human, but just a little strange such as a child's doll, a ventriloquist's dummy, or a clown produce a negative response. This trope can be used purposely, to make something creepy when creepiness is called for. --- Khal Kirby, warlord of the Super Star Khalasar PSN/Steam: CheddarBBQ https://goo.gl/Diw2hs <cite>Johnbobb posted [p:907183646] in Best of th...
