A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day.

Ditto the film versions of The Two Towers and Return of the King.

PAGES WILL BE DELETED OTHERWISE IF THEY ARE MISSING BASIC MARKUP. DON'T MAKE PAGES MANUALLY UNLESS A TEMPLATE IS BROKEN, AND REPORT IT THAT IS THE CASE. THIS SHOULD BE WORKING NOW, REPORT ANY ISSUES TO Janna2000, SelfCloak or RRabbit42. 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.

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.

Pages that don't do this will be subject to deletion, with or without explanation. All new pages should use the preloadable templates feature on the edit page to add the appropriate basic page markup.

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.

Failure to do so may result in deletion of contributions and blocks of users who refuse to learn to do so.

Before making a single edit, Tropedia EXPECTS our site policy and manual of style to be followed.

Today, we celebrate our Independence Day!Įnter your email address to subscribe to this blog and receive notifications of new posts by email. We’re fighting for our right to live, to exist.Īnd should we win the day, the 4th of July will no longer be known as an American holiday, but as the day when the world declared in one voice: Perhaps its fate that today is the 4th of July, and you will once again be fighting for our freedom, not from tyranny, oppression, or persecution - but from annihilation. We will be united in our common interests. We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. Mankind - that word should have new meaning for all of us today.

And you will be launching the largest aerial battle in this history of mankind. In less than an hour, aircraft from here will join others from around the world. Between television and film, it’s one of the best speeches to be made by a fictional president. On this 4th of July, we celebrate Independence Day and what better way to celebrate than by watching Bill Pullman’s speech as President Thomas Whitmore from the 1996 film, Independence Day.

We will not go quietly into the night
