The Fantastic Favio Bros star in a series of videos, currently at a total of about fifty minutes long, in which they fight against their {{Evil Twin}}s whom think that EverybodyMustGetStoned and the evil Dr. Lucifer who plans to take over the world using calculus. This videos are also TroperWorks, as the two main characters, Favio and Tropers/TonyMuhplaah are tropers.

56** When [=MaCavio=] looks at Tony's phone, he sees that it says "message sent," and wonders what that means.
57** After J.E.M. Stone tells Tony that it is useless to try to fight Dr. Lucifer, Tony interprets it as him saying to not give up.

63%%* DefeatMeansFriendship: [=LeTony=]. Until he becomes evil in the second movie.
64* DidIJustSayThatOutLoud?: Tony accidentally states that he is against the Jewish in the intro to ''The Mathematics Movie''. And then J.E.M. immediately exhibits the trope again a minute later when [[BitingTheHandHumor he realizes that the writer gave him ridiculous superpowers]].

66* DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything: When [=LeTony=] kidnaps Favio and takes him to a drinking party, they both mime giving oral sex to the containers of the alcoholic beverages. Then {{Lampshaded}} with text saying "If you laughed, you are a dirty old man!"

82* FunnyBackgroundEvent:
83** In the Favio Bros movies, there's a random man who appears in the background occasionally. [[WordOfGod His name is the Russian Importer.]]
84** Tony makes many odd faces and movements whenever he's not giving a line.
85* GRatedDrug:
86** Since underage teens can't really be in possession of drugs, [=LeTony=]'s ecstasy is just candy.
87** In ''A Powerful Foe'', the man at the party who is supposed to be drinking beer is drinking colorful pieces of candy.
88* GoodMorningCrono: ''The Mathematics Movie'' starts with Tony's morning routine while the narration apologizes for accidentally making a racist remark. Despite the oddness of it, it ''does'' paint an accurate picture of Tony's personality.

98* LargeHam: While everyone has traces of it, [[ActingForTwo Tony Muhplaah and Dr. Lucifer]] are the largest of them!
99* LiteralMetaphor:
100** [=LeTony=] really will [[UnusualEuphemism smell the heroes later]].
101** In the start of ''A Powerful Foe'', the metaphorical window of evil is about to be burst open... right before a brick flies in through Favio's window.
102* MistakenForAnImposter: Apparently, an anguished message from Tony asking for help looks like a chain letter.

104* MoralGuardians: Favio and Tony.
105%%* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Dr. Lucifer.

115** In ''The Horrors of Ecstasy'', Favio wonders how he found his way into [=LeTony=] and [=MaCavio's=] base, only to brush it off with "oh well."
116* OhCrap: Tony's reaction once he realizes [[DidIJustSayThatOutLoud what he just said out loud]].
117* OpeningMonologue: ''The Mathematics Movie'' has ''three'' of them, one from each character. Each one also [[BreakingTheFourthWall breaks the fourth wall]].

134* TooDumbToLive: Tony tells the bad guys that he's going to text their plan to 911. Despite the fact that 911 typically isn't able to receive texts, [=LeTony=] and [=MaCavio=] are more than willing to beat him up, and [[RuleOfThree he's holding his phone upside down]].
