* DarknessInducedAudienceApathy: An {{In-Universe}} example, as provided by the Green Goblin. He states that if all heroes were to be as dark as Batman, not only would the heroes lose what makes them interesting, since there is no LighterAndSofter heroes for contrast, comics would get too depressing that the audience might as well kill themselves.

Eventually, other Marvel and DC characters were brought in the put in their two cents, most notably ComicBook/{{Batman}} (who scoffed at the supposed "[[{{Wangst}} darkness]]" of ''Spider-Man 3''), ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk (who reminisced with Superman about "the good old days", namely the 70s/80s), [[ComicBook/{{X-Men}} Wolverine]] (who argued with Superman over whether or not the Man of Steel "stole our [[BryanSinger director]]") and the FantasticFour and the SilverSurfer who beat out DC that year due to lack of "[[{{Batman}} competition]]".

* TheOtherDarrin: Lampshaded by Batman and other characters who demand to know why Rhodey looks different in the second Iron Man film.
** Real-life version: Starting from the Thanksgiving video, Random Guy's sister provided the voice of Batgirl (as it was revealed him and his girlfriend broke up), there is no information on who'll be voicing the female characters in the future.
** The 100th episode song also contains the line "If Marvel and Edward Norton simply can't agree, we'll see Bruce Banner being played by David Duchovny". Of course, the real TheOtherDarrin [[TimeMarchesOn turned out to be Mark Ruffalo]].
* [[TheOtherDarrin The Other Action Figure]]: The Iron Man action figure used in the 2007 videos was replaced with the one licensed to the 2008 movie.
** The convention videos use alternate Spider-Man action figures, as the regular movie-based figures aren't allowed due to orders from Marvel. The viewers are always confused.
** This trope was also discussed in several videos.
** And then there's the part in '''After Hours''' when Superman and Batman are arguing with each other, they then switch between that, and [[spoiler: their SuperFriends action figures, where they then proceed to be kind, and sweet and nice to each other.]] It's rather sickening, to be honest.
** The Thing figure in the "Film/FantasticFour Quickie" differs from the one that made token appearances in later videos.

** Getting back to the first Iron Man/Batman video, Tony states "Of course, if I had lost my parents like you did, I might have grown a conscience much earlier." Bruce responds " And it would be nice to have my parents around and still be a hero." This is before we all saw the Iron Man movie and learned that Howard and Maria Stark died in Tony's youth. (RandomGuy might possibly have been referencing the 2007 Invincible Iron Man animated film, in which Howard Stark was alive and well.)
