History YMMV / HATFilms

* FandomRivalry: Fans of Hat Films do not seem to get on well with fans of Main/GameChap. This is in part due to the latter's falling out with the Yogscast, which the former are members of, and in part due to Ross openly (and repeatedly) bashing the duo on Twitter.

** Even before Hat Films joined the Yogscast, their fandoms got on extremely well. The news that they were joining was greeted (mostly) positively. Since then, their fans and LetsPlay/{{Sips}}'

* OneSceneWonder: The Sirs appear in the Area 11 video "[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8MQxwW83_k&channel=area11band Monopoly]]", where they [[AdamWesting behave like prima donna]] versions of themselves. It's not a long cameo, but it's a funny one.

** On a smaller scale, Smith. Some people see him as a griefer, and others as a Jerk with a Heart of Gold.

* CommonKnowledge: There is a rumour in certain fan circles that Smiffy is in the Territorial Army (basically the British equivalent of the National Guard). Not only is Smiffy not in the British Army at all, but the Territorial Army does not even exist any more, having been replaced by the Army Reserves. He addresses it [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lSXYQgj7eYA&list=UUD4INvKvy83OXwAkRjaQKtw#t=105 in this video]] and [[https://twitter.com/alsmiffy/status/523255844948172800 on Twitter]].

* MemeticMutation: "EAT SHIT", or any variation upon it, since Ross shouts it in ''VideoGame/GarrysMod''.

* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: In an extremely rare case, Ross somehow manages to be both this AND the straight man of the group.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zU_p8LkY7E#t=1m0s One episode of Skyblock]], as the trio continues to build and gather items, a 4th player named Ceji appeared in the game (he is an admin of the Hatventures server the trio has open to the public) without warning and it caused everyone else to be confused by it. Once the player left, the trio resume playing as normal without ever mentioning the incident again.

* FanDumb: While the guys themselves actually get along well with the Yogscast and have done since before they officially joined, a small portion of the fans are extremely angry that they joined up as they are very anti-Yogscast; some of this is owing to what the fans fear to be a perceived change to content, in spite of the fact that WordOfGod says they will keep their videos the same. To be fair, a few of them are worried about the Yogscast's own FanDumb ruining their videos.

* BrokenBase: Really only a slight fracture, but most Hatters, when asked, will admit to being loyal to one particular Sir, whether it be the Bearded One, the Walrus, or the Green Fury. Twitter wars have been played with, and the Hatventure forums have established cults inside the archives. It's not so much the base is broken as it's the lines have been drawn, everyone knows who's standing where, and should the Hat Films ever have a public in-fighting, their Hatters are ready for the war.

* PetPeeveTrope: The trio hate custom tracks in ''VideoGame/[[TrialsHD Trials Evolution]]'' that abuse CheckpointStarvation. The group gives tracks that have lack of checkpoints the "Fuck You Buddy Award".

** On a smaller scale, Smith. Some people see him as a griefer, and others as a JerkwithaHeartofGold.

** And in this tropers opinion, both are equally true.

* TrueNeutral: His neutrality is more or less what makes Ross the 'leader' of the group, as he's non-biased in most decisions; however, he still can be extremely influenced by the other two. This 50/50 influence is why, when it comes to the 'Trott Abuse' comedy, half the fans can argue that Ross is Trott's defender, and the other half can argue he's as much of a bully as Smith is.

* ChaoticGood: Smith's ultimate goal appears to get a laugh out of the other two any given episode, which is good; but he's willing to try just about ANY kind of joke to get it, no matter how filthy or mean spirited.

* Cloudcuckoolander: In an extremely rare case, Ross somehow manages to be both this AND the straight man of the group.

** The main Hatventures theme.

* EarWorm: From ''Filfy' Animals'': "Hi, my name is Geoff and I'm a glitchy silverfish. Not much else to say..."
