13 | !!Tropes that apply to Balena Productions include: |
14 | * AprilFoolsDay: Has done this annually: |
15 | ** 2011: Starts out like it's his (at the time) long awaited ''Sonic in Jurassic Park'' video, until [[spoiler:it goes to static and switches to a looping recreation of [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FiARsQSlzDc&ab_channel=atticusbird182 Colin's Bear Animation]]]]. |
16 | ** 2012: Starts out as a sneak-peek to ''Sonic in Jaws 2'', but as the Shark jumps out of the water [[spoiler:it starts singing "Let's Make Music Together" from ''WesterAnimation/AllDogsGoToHeaven''.]] |
17 | ** 2013: Like 2011, it looks like it's ''Sonic in Jurassic Park'', but it turns out that he just green-screened Sonic into footage shot by him at Universal Studios Hollywood, and the video ends as soon as it began. |
18 | ** 2014: He announced a new format for his ''Sonic In Jurassic Park'' video, beyond what even Source Filmmaker could do:[[spoiler: TOYS!]] |
19 | ** 2015: The original idea for this joke was a parody of the ''WesternAnimation/SonicBoom'' show, but Steve felt that his viewers had already gotten that he wasn't a fan of the show, and didn't want to beat a dead horse. Instead, he decided to do a TakeThat toward VideoGame/{{Minecraft}} Let's Players. |
20 | ** 2016: He makes a [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yofi_FVqjJs Sonic movie trailer parodying "Crossfiction"]] which cracks plenty of [[TakeThat Take Thats]] at character shipping and crossfics. |
21 | ** 2017: Makes [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2lx_vB4M3g sonic valentimes with cookie monster]], a video about Robotnik as a dad called Dadbotnik very similar to [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=kCFfVS0xXUs his friend's video]], although much more crazy. |
22 | ** 2018: He makes a video called [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=O4ZCTw0pHMI&pp=ygUMTWFyaW8gZ2hvc3Rz Mario Ghosts]], where the Mario crew takes a page from Sonic Zombie as they search for the Easter Bunny inside a haunted house. |
23 | ** 2020: He makes [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Qs8WdTDVnZk Joeshi in Sonic in JAWS]], an [[StylisticSuck intentionally janky]] retelling of Sonic in JAWS with Joeshi from Mario Ghosts as the lead and the music score being played solely on a kazoo. |
24 | ** 2024: He makes [[https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v577NyLGd1Y Joeshi's Epic Adventure ft. Sonic Zombies?!]], where Joeshi goes to the store to get some milk for his cereal. |
25 | * ArtShift: The Christmas with Sonic videos, which instead of being animated in either ''Garry's Mod'' or Source Filmmaker, are done in a sketchy storyboard style drawn by his girlfriend. |
26 | * AuthorAppeal: |
27 | ** Is a HUGE fan of ''Franchise/JurassicPark'', and often uses the dinosaurs from the movie in his videos. |
28 | ** He loves ''Ride/BackToTheFutureTheRide'', and will often give a TakeThat towards the ride that replaced it, ''Ride/TheSimpsonsRide''. |
29 | * HowTheCharacterStoleChristmas: Sonic's story in ''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkWjun6IKRw&ab_channel=Balenaproductions Another Christmas With Sonic]]'' is a reference to ''Literature/HowTheGrinchStoleChristmas''. |
30 | * LetsPlay: Before creating the ''LetsPlay/PixelBrains'' channel with his friend Ron, he did one for ''VideoGame/JurassicParkTrespasser'' on his own. [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nRqobu0hPZw&ab_channel=Balenaproductions Much screaming ensued.]] (His screaming can get pretty loud, so turn down the volume if you're sensitive to loud noises) |
31 | * RunningGag: During the review of ''Film/JurassicParkIII'' in his [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFNiS8-rUU0&ab_channel=Balenaproductions Jurassic Park Trilogy Retrospective]], he makes fun of the filmmakers turning Spinosaurus into a unstoppable villain with the joke "Duck Love... *quack*", complete with the head of Spinosaurus on a wall mount with a photoshopped duck bill. |
32 | * ShoutOut: During ''The Sonic Scrambled Channel'', a brief clip from ''Ride/BackToTheFutureTheRide'' is shown. |
33 | * TakeThat: |
34 | ** His [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=amUqFMe_UjQ&ab_channel=Balenaproductions two]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YXKragtd9PE&ab_channel=Balenaproductions videos]] about ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'', both of which involve Anna and Elsa getting eaten by dinosaurs from ''Jurassic Park''. |
35 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsBuC3LhdMQ So you want to make a Gmod video!]], which makes fun of things he doesn't like in most videos made using ''VideoGame/GarrysMod'', such as only using the default gm_construct map, poorly posed characters, overly-long introductions, etc. This also extends to other parts of the {{Machinima}} community, best exemplified by this line: |
36 | --> '''Narrator''': Someday, you might be able to sell your soul to Machinima, only for your creation to be buried under ten ''VideoGame/{{Minecraft}}'' commentaries, four trailers, and five unfunny flash cartoons! |
37 | ** At the end of his 2013 April Fools video, Doc and Marty from ''Franchise/BackToTheFuture'' give the middle finger to ''Ride/TheSimpsonsRide'', which replaced ''Ride/BackToTheFutureTheRide''. |
38 | ** The ending to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WERixGy5aCk Bare Aminamals]], where Pinkie Pie from ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' appears before promptly getting eaten by a Tyrannosaurus Rex. |
39 | ** [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yofi_FVqjJs His April Fools 2016 Video]] does this with Crossfics. |
40 | * VillainSue[[invoked]]: Complains about Spinosaurus being turned into this in his ''Film/JurassicParkIII'' review. |
