History WebVideo / JonTron

It's also worth noting that with the sixth ''[=StarCade=]'' episode, Jon started a since-defunct channel called [[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6EuuHOqD6_8u4MBid-7cHw GreenBoys]] that takes his SurrealHumor to new highs.

** Jon inserts a suspiciously high number of old Website/{{YTMND}} fads, including Shoop Da Woop, space [[Creator/ChristopherWalken Walken]], and a frequent usage of "[[Music/{{Nightwish}} Ghost Love Score]]" (a.k.a. the "Epic Maneuver" song).

* SomethingCompletelyDifferent: Sometimes Jon takes a break from game reviews and looks at a film, like ''Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark'', ''Film/{{Birdemic}}'', or ''WesternAnimation/{{Foodfight}}''.

* EightDeadlyWords: [[invoked]] His main problem with ''Film/TheLostWorldJurassicPark'' is that he didn't care about the protagonists.

* IAteWhat: At the beginning of Starcade Episode 8, Jon is eating apples. C-3P0 then informs him that these apples were actually sentient.

Jon was also inducted into Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses, specifically the gaming-centered Blistered Thumbs, and once had a second channel [[https://www.youtube.com/user/JonTronLoL JonTronLoL]], where he casted ''VideoGame/LeagueOfLegends'' games with all his characteristic energy.

* ProductionThrowback: It's ''very'' subtle, but listen carefully to the piano music during the scene where [[spoiler:Jon unmasks Darth Vader]] in the Starcade finale. It's the [[spoiler:"''Hey I'm Grump! I'm not so Grump!''" tune from Jon's former show, ''WebVideo/GameGrumps''.]] This also counts as some last second {{Foreshadowing}}.

* {{Mondegreen}}: If Jon finds a line of dialogue in a movie/show/game hard to hear or understand, chances are you'll see subtitles with these.

** A multi-episode one: The last time Rockington was ever acknowledged was way back in the Nuts and Bolts episode, mentioning he had somehow [[EpicFail managed to lose a rock]]. [[spoiler:Years later, he shows up again in Starcade's Plug-n-Play episode, as a boss in a game Jon ''somehow'' gets by plugging himself into the TV. That rock was ''really'' lost.]]

* ItIsPronouncedTroPAY: Discussed in Jon's gyro song in "Hercules Games":
-->He's going to get a gyro\\
Although it's technically pronounced "yee-ro"\\
Although I still wanna call it a gyro [[RuleOfCool cuz it sounds cooler!]]

** Possibly unintentional, but the intro animation for "A Talking Cat!?!" has the titular cat calling Jon a "humon", similar to Keenan in the English dub of ''Anime/DigimonSavers''.

** In ''[[http://normalboots.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=474&Itemid=11&lang=en Jon Tron and George Lucas Visit Jupiter]]'' he mercilessly (and hilariously) ridicules the idea of going back to previous, finished works and editing them digitally, the way Creator/GeorgeLucas does to the ''StarWars'' original trilogy.

* NotSoDifferent: Spoken to Jon by one of his [[HauntedTechnology games]] during its BreakingSpeech.

** Claims that the {{Aesop}} behind [[{{Goosebumps}} My Hairiest Adventure]] is "Don't be unlucky and be a dog."

*** In his review of ''{{Goosebumps}}'', he puts a book in an NES. To review a TV show.

* ThemeTuneCameo: It's ''very'' subtle, but listen carefully to the piano music during the scene where [[spoiler:Jon unmasks Darth Vader]] in the Starcade finale. It's the [[spoiler:"''Hey I'm Grump! I'm not so Grump!''" tune from Jon's former show, ''WebVideo/GameGrumps''.]] This also counts as some last second {{Foreshadowing}}.

** Jon is also able to watch episodes of the live action Series/{{Goosebumps}} by inserting the novels of each episode into several different consoles.

* INeedAFreakingDrink: The Game Boy ''[[VideoGame/CastlevaniaTheAdventure Castlevania]]'' review.
-->'''Jon:''' Welp, better get out my shot-glass. (''slams a massive glass mug on the table'') Don't try this at home, kids; you just might end up dead.

** Surprisingly, in ''California Games'' of all places, where failing to complete the game objectives is leaving one protagonist after the other dead. Not just hinted at, the game is explicitly letting Jon know the characters just ''died''.

* LaughingMad: His reaction to the infamous ''VideoGame/ProjectSpark'' [[VideoGame/ConkersBadFurDay Conker]] [[YankTheDogsChain tease]]. It gets worse gradually, but then devolves into [[BrokenTears tears]].

* DespairEventHorizon: Most definitely crosses it during his meltdown in "CONKER IS BACK GUYS". Afterwards, we see him looking solemnly into the city and saying ''"All is lost."''

** In his video on VideoGame/BanjoKazooieNutsAndBolts, Jacques tried to wipe Jon's memory in hopes of preventing him from reviewing the game. [[FromBadToWorse Not only did this not work, but it put them both in danger when Jon blew him up and unleashed the game form its case.]]

** In the middle of the ''Workplace Safety'' episode, someone is shown slipping on a pen, which then crahses into a building and Jon and blows them up. At the end of the video, the same pen returns and hits the drone filming the video, causing it to fly towards Jon's crew.

* LaterInstallmentWeirdness: After coming back from ''WebVideo/GameGrumps,'' Jon has reviewed far more films than games. He still does, on occasion, but it's usually a film or series that he reviews. This makes him more like a non-manic depressive ''Nostalgia Critic'' than the non-swearing ''AVGN''-like character he started as. Moreover, Jaques appears less and less.
