4 | !!This webcomic provides examples of: |
5 | |
6 | * TheAlcoholic: Irv is on the record as saying he can't live without excessive amounts of alcohol. |
7 | * ArtEvolution: Seen as the strip progresses. Actually lampshaded in [[http://digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?title=movie&id=381 the Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist]] strip, where someone said Joe's art was getting too complex. The resulting comic was simpler as a result. |
8 | * AuthorAvatar: Not only of Joe, but of Irv, another Digital Pimp member. |
9 | * BackStab: When all else fails, stab the Grimace. |
10 | * CaptainObvious: Palpatine ''will'' insult you if you invoke this trope. |
11 | * CatchPhrase: Parodied where EVERY role Creator/SamuelLJackson [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=388&title=movie plays]] [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=320&title=movie ends]] [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=124&title=movie in]] [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=101&title=movie motherfucker]]. |
12 | * {{Cosplay}}: Joe and his friends when seeing the second Fantastic Four movie. Except Yeo. She went home. |
13 | ** The Halloween strips |
14 | ** Even George got one in when he shot Vanilla Ice for ripping off "[[Music/DavidBowie Under]] [[Music/{{Queen}} Pressure]]". |
15 | * DealWithTheDevil: What Christopher Nolan did to get the cast of ''Film/BatmanBegins''. When asked by Hitler if it was WorthIt, Nolan replies that it totally was. |
16 | * DisproportionateRetribution: Why Poseidon happened: Fergie was on board and God hates the Black Eyed Peas. |
17 | * DrinkingGame: Joe, Irv, and Yeo play one when they see The Pink Panther. The rules: take a sip when they lose respect for Steve Martin. [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?title=movie&id=104 70 seconds later?]] |
18 | * EvenTheGuysWantHim: Creator/MorganFreeman, apparently. |
19 | * FanDisillusionment: Joe after seeing the first ''Film/FantasticFour'' movie. The NostalgiaFilter won out quickly, though. |
20 | * ForWantOfANail: Had Irv not gotten sick, everyone could have gotten tickets to the premiere of ''Film/MissionImpossibleIII''. |
21 | * GodwinsLaw: Invoked when Irv asks why there aren't minority Terminators. |
22 | * GroinAttack: Joerules vs. a stranger. |
23 | ** Joe vs a football. Twice. Then a guy in a football costume shoots him. |
24 | * ImperialStormtrooperMarksmanshipAcademy: Their minds were blown when someone suggested hitting their target. |
25 | * KillerRabbit: Used as an example of what [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=314&title=movie would be scary]]. |
26 | * KlaatuBaradaNikto: Of course, with the Grimace in Keanu's place, it's Klaatu Barada Milkshake. |
27 | * MadeOfExplodium: The tiger sent by Creator/MichaelBay to attack a reporter that misquoted him. Which then transformed into a fire engine. |
28 | * MayDecemberRomance: Parodied when Tom Cruise brings out Dakota Fanning instead of Katie Holmes. |
29 | * MisterSeahorse: The only two people Joe trusts enough to carry his child (if they need a surrogate) are Irv and Batman. |
30 | * MoodWhiplash: the ''Film/UpInTheAir'' [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=7&title=movie strip]] |
31 | * NoFourthWall: This is a world where Irv's best friend is [[Film/ThreeHundred Leonidas]], [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Captain Picard]] plays ComicBook/IronMan on the VideoGame/MarvelVsCapcom arcade game, and Joe's survived Franchise/{{Saw}} twice! |
32 | * OneSteveLimit: Parodied in the [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?title=movie&id=177 Snakes on a Plane comic]] |
33 | * PornStache: Joe notes that this was part of Burt Reynolds' appeal, and expresses horror when he shaves it. Yeo would still hit that. |
34 | ** Discussed [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=316&title=movie here]] |
35 | * PrisonRape: Hinted at when Joe goes to prison in The Longest Yard strip, and George in the Let's Go to Prison strip |
36 | * PunctuatedForEmphasis: Parodied when Joe and Phil ponder how Leondias would translate into modern life. One of this comic's frames is the trope page picture. |

38 | * RealMenWearPink: Leo's spirit animal is Franchise/HelloKitty. |
39 | -->"[[PunctuatedForEmphasis You. Are. ADORABLE!]]" |
40 | * RunningGag: UH-DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHHHH! |
41 | ** NERD! *punches nerd in the stomach* |
42 | ** Why would you stab the Grimace? |
43 | * SoBadItsGood: InUniverse. Joe's raison d'etre is to watch movies that fit this trope. |
44 | %%"raison d'etat" - "reason of state". doesn't make any sense. |
45 | * SnapBack: People have been beaten up, shot, and even killed - and are perfectly fine next strip. |
46 | * StuffBlowingUp: Michael Bay loves to do it. |
47 | * TrademarkFavoriteFood: Ice cream sandwiches, to the point where Joe would pick one over Irv. |
48 | * {{Transplant}}: Palpatine and Leondias. Captain Picard's seen in the background often. |
49 | * TheUnpronounceable: |
50 | ** Invoked [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=95&title=movie here]] |
51 | ** ''Film/LuckyNumberSlevin'', to the point where someone just called it "Josh Hartnett". |
52 | * ViewersAreMorons: |
53 | ** Joe's reaction when certain movies are reviewed negatively, and he asks how that was worse than ''Film/TheWickerMan2006''. |

55 | ** George attacked a movie theater that enjoyed ''Larry the Cable Guy: Health Inspector'' ''because'' of this trope. |
56 | * WhatCouldHaveBeen: [[http://www.digitalpimponline.com/strips.php?start=127&title=movie Irv daydreams about Will Smith as Captain America]] |
57 | * YouCanKeepHer: Twice. Joe, knowing his hypothetical child would probably turn out an asshole like him, is on record as saying if either the devil or kidnappers took his kid, they can have her. |
58 | * YourHeadAsplode: Teleporting does this. |
