History Webcomic / TheaterHopper

* TransformationSequence: Tom attempts to copy the transformation from the infamous bomb ''Film/MasterOfDisguise'', but only turns into "a pissed off movie goer who wants his money back".

* RealityEnsues: One strip revolves around Tom telling Cami that they should finally do what the comics title say and go "theater hopping" (sneaking into more movies than you paid for). They run afoul of Victor and get put into the theaters holding cell.
** Tom builds an ComicBook/IronMan armor out of cardboard for the premiere of the 2008 movie (despite having been given a realistic promotional one by Marvel earlier; he apparently sold that one to pay for movie merchandise). To simulate Iron Man's repulsor blasters, he stuffs the arms full of old sparklers... and the costume promptly catches fire.

* NotSoDifferent: For all her exasperation with her husbands geeky antics, it's been shown several times that Cami can be just as obsessive with her own interests such as chick flicks or Film/HarryPotter.

* BadassGay: Victor, a brutish Ukranian immigrant who takes a job at the theater later on in the comic. As mentioned in the comic talking about the movie ''{{Bruno}}'', being badass is pretty vital if you're gay in the old Soviet territories.

* BrainBleach: Tom's reaction to Clint Eastwood's sex scene in ''BloodWork''.

* ChickFlick: This is Cami Brazelton's favorite kind of movie, both in the comic and in real-life, much to Comic Tom's frustration. Her favorite actress of all time is JuliaRoberts. The comic specifically compares it to Tom's love of comic book movies, showing them as a female escapist fantasy just like superheroes are male escapist fantasies.

* FormerTeenRebel: The nerdy theater clerk Jimmy turns out to have been one of these when he was a teenager. In fact, he had inadvertenly been ripping off ''TheWildOne'' without having ever seen the movie.

* HeroicDog: Truman on occasion, most notable when he once saved Cami from a rampaging pet monkey... by flying a little biplane like in KingKong.

* FelonyMisdemeanor: The Nerd Police busted the main character twice so far, first for "Failing to recognize ''Franchise/TheHitchhikersGuideToTheGalaxy''", and again for "Spoilers While Tweeting".

* WithThisRing: One storyline reveals that Jimmy and Charlie were once engaged, until she caught him kissing another woman in the movie theater. The whole thing was NotWhatItLooksLike, but a combination of Jimmy's past womanizing, and Charlie's own doubts about getting married so young ld to her flushing the ring down the toilet. To this day Jimmy, who took a job at the theater to remind himself of Charlie, cant bring himself to clean the womens bathroom.
