The main purpose of the group was to reveal and show how [[Literature/NineteenEightyFour Orwellian]] much of the [[Literature/TheTwilightSaga Twilight]] series' more rabid fanbase can get. In the off season the group enjoyed [[Series/MysteryScienceTheater3000 more familiar pastimes]]. The fictionalized version of the group held five primary members: D~ (the StraightMan, most of the time), A~ (the DeadpanSnarker), K~ (the one fan, a {{Cloudcuckoolander}}), V~ (essentially a female analogue to [[Comicbook/VForVendetta that one guy with the mask]]) and most recently Z~, who...wasn't really all there. The group was also currently in the process of riffing ''Twilight'' TheMovie, though it had fallen into DevelopmentHell and was subsequently canned.

!!The Black Pawn Movement provides examples of:
* ArtificialIntelligence: Demon and mArley from ''BPM: 2212.''
* AuthorAvatar: Everyone in the videos, but most especially ^Creator^~, who is the actual creator's...er, character in the videos. He is the only one to actually speak so far. However, recently he goes by [[SonicTheHedgehog Tails Prower]] or ^Tails^~, and most recently "DJ".
* BerserkButton: D~ is set off by extreme stupidity, A~ gets angry at the Twihards' ''normal'' stupidity level, and at their poor reasons for liking the books (Edward Cullen usually being the main and mostly only reason). A~ actually snapped and was PutOnABus for a few videos, for everyone's protection.
* CampGay: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W5RuSHL0g74&feature=channel This guy]].
* CloudCuckoolander: K~, who is actually as intelligent as the other two, but rarely shows it.
* ColorCodedCharacters: The text for everyone is a separate color: D~ is white, A~ is green, K~ is cyan, V~ is red, Z~ is blue and ^Tails^~ is orange. The fonts for each person are also different. During the WMM-era of videos, the colors would change occasionally. For example, when a video had a lot of white where the text appeared, D~'s text would change to orange to compensate.
* ClusterFBomb: The trailer of ''New Moon''... As interpreted by Nick of VideoGame/Left4Dead2.
** A~ will also delve into this on occasion.
* DeadpanSnarker: While this applies to everybody to various extents, A~ ''thrives'' on sarcasm and mocking stupidity. mArley, her AI mimic in ''BPM: 2212'', continues in her footsteps, though more as a means to be Shattyr's {{Foil}}. Crush follows A~'s style much more closely in-video, however.
* FourthWallMailSlot: Whenever the fictional BPM responds to a video, or when they comment on others' videos. D~ and A~ have both been noted to comment on ''fansites'' of ''Twilight''.
* FurryFandom: Of the non-crazy variety-when we actually see the characters, they just happen to be antrophomorphic animals, in all except one case canids.
** Almost completely averted with ''BPM: 2212'', with the main cast consisting of twin shark siblings and two AI, with one of the AI taking a similar form to A~ in the present day BPM.
* TheFuture: ''BPM: 2212'' takes place in it, specifically the year 2212.
* {{Hatedom}}: D~ and A~ are the two main riffers, and being haters of the Twilight series in general, will openly mock the various aspects of the books. TheMovie was also in the process of being riffed, and they make sure to poke fun at every absurd concept and line at every possible opening.
* HeWhoMustNotBeSeen: ''Everyone'' within the fictional BPM. This makes it hard for some viewers to ascertain who is male and who is female at first glance. This was later averted when The BPM ''were'' revealed, in 2010.
* TheHyena: Z~, interjecting quick laughing fits after some of his comments.
* HypocrisyNod: In "Rated S", when they call out the original uploader on using WMM more than Sony Vegas, both of which were used for the original video...Then advertising their spinoff show, DnA, immediately after. "''IT COMES WITH A FLASHY INTRO!''"
* MeanwhileInTheFuture: The {{Spinoff}} ''BPM: 2212''.
* [[spoiler: OldShame]]: [[spoiler: One video they riffed was revealed to have been made by ^Tails^~ before he started [=BPM=] based on what his ex-girlfriend told him about Twilight. [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZshylKqLqo You can watch it here.]]]]
* OnlyKnownByTheirNickname: Subverted with A~: Her full name was used by V~ as a FullNameUltimatum to snap her out of a rant (it's "Anastasia", by the way).
* InCaseYouForgotWhoWroteIt: "Stephenie Meyer's How to Write Good like Stephenie Meyer (from the author of the ''Twilight'' Saga, StephenieMeyer)"!
* PatrioticFervor: PlayedForLaughs when A~ stops a video and starts raving about AMERICA, climaxing with the Star-Spangled Banner playing with the American Flag waving in the background, before D~ gets irritated and cuts it short.
* ProductPlacement: When a video was cut short due to a bad conversion, they advertised for the sound editor Audacity while they were waiting for it to finish recording the audio stream. A~ promptly [[LampshadeHanging pointed the fact out]] after they finished.
* PutOnABus: A~ was inexplicably "on vacation" for a few videos, it was later revealed upon her return that D~ "punched her lights out" because she "went crazy" in the time between her last appearance and the "on vacation" explanation, not going into any further details before A~ starts whaling on D~ for revenge. It was later found out that A~ had snapped from a Twihard's extreme idiocy, which forced D~ to knock her out in an attempt to keep her from going on a rampage.
