* WhamEpisode: Zero Hour 7: Green Goblin sacrifices himself to save the randomverse, and there are now other versions of [[spoiler: Green Goblin and Harley Quinn]] running around since [[spoiler: the originals are in the reboot universe.]]

* MoralityChain: Deadpool considers Rorschach to be his.

* PowerEchoes: Comicbook/GhostRider, Venom, and Darkseid all have echoey voices.

** '''Season Three: Zero Hour''': The current season, picking up where "Happy Hour" left off. All seems fine in the Randomverse: The bad guys are dealing with another loss, the hero bar ("{{Stan|Lee}}'s Place") is expanding, and [[spoiler:Goblin and Harley are together following Joker's disappearance.]] All hell breaks loose, however, when [[spoiler:Lance's head appears.]] Meanwhile, Lex Luthor is trying to make a vision he had come true, which predicted the good guys on the ground beaten and humiliated--but no one seems interesting in helping him besides Lars, the European Douche.

** '''ManOfSteel vs. IronMan3''': It starts out rather easy-going for one of these videos since Superman isn't making any negative remarks against Tony, but then Batman decides to backup his fellow DC character and Captain America shows up to reign in Tony. Batman and Ironman end up fighting while Superman and Captain America stand on the sidelines commenting about being the NiceGuy. Superman later gets a little better at making critical remarks.

* YoureWorthHell: [[spoiler:Harley Quinn chooses to join the Green Goblin in the rebooted universe rather than stay with the Joker at the end of Zero Hour]]

* GetsTheGirl: [[spoiler:Green Goblin]]

There are six main sub-series of videos in this series:

There are five main sub-series of videos in this series:

** '''Film/IronMan vs. JonahHex''': In May of 2010, Jonah Hex was brought on to go against Iron Man, in the wake of the ''JonahHex'' movie and ''[[Film/IronMan Iron Man 2]]'' both coming out that month. Iron Man questioned Jonah about his movie's commercials making it seem like "Film/{{Constantine}} [[Comicbook/GhostRider The Ghost Rider]] [[InSpace In the Wild Wild West]]" instead of a gritty realistic Western like in the comic, while Jonah pointed out the insane amount of ProductPlacement present in the Iron Man 2 ads. It doesn't go much further than that though, as Jonah Hex doesn't think there's any honor in [[LampshadeHanging trashing the competition's movies before they even come out]].

*** It seems that the spiked milkshake can even get JonahHex to [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R8o8Tf3u9Sc Parody movies.]]

* WeAreExperiencingTechnicalDifficulties: Parodied in the first JonahHex video, where Iron Man is about to explain [[TheOtherDarrin what happened to Rhodey's first actor]], but the video cuts to a screen with the message "Whoops! Technical Difficulties." Turns out Iron Man didn't actually tell Jonah what happened, and instead just stood there for a few seconds while the Technical Difficulties screen popped up before saying "That's why!"

** '''ComicBook/{{Superman}} v. ComicBook/{{Spider-Man}}''': Some time after the release of ''SupermanReturns'', and before the release of the then-highly anticipated ''Film/{{Spider-Man}} 3'', [=RandomGuy=] made these first short films, contrasting DC's movie adaptations with Marvel's. Mainly, the videos focused on the more disappointing aspects of ''Superman Returns'' in comparison with the more successful parts of the ''Spider-Man'' films. Once it was a video with the villains (LexLuthor and Green Goblin). 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 ComicBook/FantasticFour and the SilverSurfer who beat out DC that year due to lack of "[[{{Batman}} competition]]".
** '''{{Batman}} v. ComicBook/TheIncredibleHulk and ComicBook/IronMan''': In the summer of 2008, [=RandomGuy=] took a break from the more dramatic storylines of "After Hours" to take advantage of the number of comic book movies coming out that summer (namely, ''Film/TheIncredibleHulk'', ''Film/IronMan'', and ''Film/TheDarkKnight''). This series focused on Batman facing off against either Iron Man or the Hulk. Since ''HellboyIITheGoldenArmy'' also came out that summer, ComicBook/{{Hellboy}} himself briefly joined in (he didn't quite fit in, though).

** '''Season Two: Happy Hour''': "Happy Hour," the second season, centers around a plan by the Joker to control all superheroes and make them like his "straight man" - Batman. The Joker's plan has one flaw, though: [[spoiler:Spider-Man's immune to his mind control, due to his view of reality already being changed by Mephisto.]] Subplots include Spider-Man's eagerness to join Batman in crimefighting, the [[ComicBook/{{Spider-Man}} Green Goblin]] trying desperately to win [[{{Batman}} Harley Quinn's]] heart, and both the Goblin and Lex Luthor tripping out on sedatives.

* CrossoverShip: In-universe, the Green Goblin has a ''huge'' crush on [[{{Batman}} Harley Quinn]], [[spoiler:and they get together during the finale of "Happy Hour"]]. Poison Ivy and [[Comicbook/{{Spider-Man}} Sandman]] hooking up counts, too.

** The second is a mock salute to {{Batman}} by SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker about making most of the heroes on earth DarkerAndEdgier in order to make them BrainwashedAndCrazy while working for him.

* HannibalLecture: SelfDemonstrating/TheJoker delivers an absolutely brutal one to [[spoiler: Darkseid]] with a bonus of a TomatoInTheMirror revelation. Seen [[http://www.youtube.com/user/ItsJustSomeRandomGuy#p/u/1/s4qySWZA8kY here]] starting at around 2:35.

** Season 3: As the 5th episode shows, it becomes a deconstruction of the series itself - of the nature and ramifications of the hero bar, and what it would mean to people within to learn they are part of the fictional universes.

-->'''Batman''': Never gets any easier, does it?

* ArentYouForgettingSomeone: In the {{Franchise/Batman}} vs Film/TheAvengers video, everyone seems to forget that poor Spidey has a [[Film/TheAmazingSpider<an summer blockbuster]] coming out too...and that he's even standing there.

*** Some of the parody trailers include: ''Film/StarTrek'', ''{{Franchise/Terminator}}: Salvation'', ''DragMeToHell'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Up}}'', ''Film/TheHangover'', ''TheProposal'', ''Film/HarryPotter and the Half-Blood Prince'', ''InglouriousBasterds'', ''Film/{{District 9}}'', and ''[[Literature/{{Twilight}} New Moon]]''. The heroes (and antiheroes) wanted a parody of ''Film/{{Transformers}}: Revenge of the Fallen'', but [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siGtn_SxKbs that didn't exactly work out]].

*** The 2011 parody season included ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'', ''WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda'', and ''TheHangover 2''.

** '''Season One''': Season One begins with various Marvel and DC heroes hanging out in a superhero bar, discussing previous, current, and upcoming film projects. Eventually, a plot starts to form as, at a nearby villains' bar, [[ComicBook/{{Superman}} Lex Luthor]] tries to convince Marvel villains such as [[ComicBook/FantasticFour Doctor Doom]], [[ComicBook/{{X-Men}} Magneto]], and [[ComicBook/{{Spider-Man}} Venom]] to join him in altering the past so their movies would turn out better. Failing that, Luthor goes with a second plan - to wipe out all Marvel comics. Throughout all this, Superman tries to come to grips with people perceiving him as too powerful, and not being as flawed and relatable as other heroes.

*** Some of the parody trailers include: ''Film/StarTrek'', ''{{Franchise/Terminator}}: Salvation'', ''DragMeToHell'', ''WesternAnimation/{{Up}}'', ''TheHangover'', ''TheProposal'', ''Film/HarryPotter and the Half-Blood Prince'', ''InglouriousBasterds'', ''Film/{{District 9}}'', and ''[[Literature/{{Twilight}} New Moon]]''. The heroes (and antiheroes) wanted a parody of ''Film/{{Transformers}}: Revenge of the Fallen'', but [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siGtn_SxKbs that didn't exactly work out]].

* EraSpecificPersonality: {{Lampshaded}}

* FantasticRacism: {{Wolverine}} accuses Superman of being an 'anti-Mutite' because Bryan Singer jumped ship from the ''XMen'' movies to direct ''SupermanReturns''.

* [[InkSuitActor Action Figure Actor]]: His natural voice is uncannily similar to the one he uses for Clark.

* 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.
