| Mar 10, 2015 at 19:58 | comment | added | shaun | @Catija I was mainly asking concerning HoC, I was asking about all cases wondering if their was a precedent for breaking the fourth wall. | |
| Mar 10, 2015 at 19:54 | comment | added | Austin | There's an episode in season 3 where someone else in the room hears Frank speaking to the camera and says "what?". Frank brushes it off, but it seems to imply the world is still going while he breaks the fourth wall. I'm hoping the series will end with him being put in an insane asylum for speaking to imaginary friends all the time. | |
| Mar 10, 2015 at 19:31 | comment | added | Catija | @ShaunLoftin Are you asking this for all cases of breaking the fourth wall? If so, the house of cards tag is inappropriate. Also, in that case, the question is a bit on the broad side, I think. | |
| Mar 10, 2015 at 18:42 | comment | added | shaun | It is hard to categorize for both TV and movies because there are different time constraints on both. I don't think there are set standards for what a fourth wall break really is. @JohnnyBones | |
| Mar 10, 2015 at 18:36 | comment | added | Johnny Bones | The answer to Part 2 of your question is, "Sometimes". Sometimes they show this by actually stopping the characters/surroundings from moving, and then when the "fourth wall break" is over, everything around the character resumes at its normal speed. It depends on the scene, I guess. In Ferris Bueller, sometimes it did and sometimes it didn't. I can't answer specifically for HoC because I've never seen the show. | |
