->''"If it's crap, we'll tell you"''

''Spill'' was a group of animated internet movie critics that were based in Austin, Texas. Their shtick was that they were geeks who review films for geeks and, you know, they were animated! The site, sadly, was shut down December 30th on 2013 and since then the reviewers have gone on to to do other things with the most popular solo reviewer being Korey who now does WebVideo/DoubleToasted while Cyrus of example started [[http://oneofus.net One Of Us.]]

!!!From left to right:
* [[TheBigGuy Cyrus]] (Real Name: Chris Cox) -- The most geeky guy, known for his love of Creator/TheCoenBrothers and the most comic book-loving of the group. He also loves cats and puns. Due to his accent, he often pronounces the word "Women" as "Woman," as was pointed out several times by his coworkers. While Carlyle was the frequent Better Than Sex giver, this guy is the mercilessly frequent F**k You giver.
* [[TeamPet Co-Host 3000]] (Real Name: Tony Guerrero) -- Their perverted robotic companion who loves crappy films and is an unabashed fan of Creator/AdamSandler.
* [[TheHero Korey Coleman]] -- The animator who is known for his goofiness, lover of zombie films, and nitpicking small logic problems. Naturally, as an animator, Korey has a strong love for old animation, such as classic Franchise/{{Disney|AnimatedCanon}} and [[WesternAnimation/LooneyTunes Warner Bros.]] cartoons, ''ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}}'' animated specials and Charles Schulz’ comic strips, Creator/RalphBakshi and Franchise/TheSmurfs. Similarly, he’s also very fond of puppets, especially, but not limited to, [[Creator/JimHenson Jim Henson’s]] [[Franchise/TheMuppets Muppets]] and Series/SesameStreet, as he has expressed in the past that he desired to be a puppeteer before gaining an interest in animation. Also revealed through the video game podcast that he is a Franchise/ResidentEvil fan. His [[StupidSexyFlanders mancrushes]] are Creator/ChanningTatum, Creator/RyanGosling and Creator/MichaelFassbender, though he mostly expresses an affinity for older actresses, particularly Creator/HelenMirren.
* [[TheLancer Leon]] (Real Name: Martin Thomas) -- The old wise guy, known for his hatred of Creator/AdamSandler and shares a love of ''Film/SpiderMan3'' with Cyrus. Secretly into Creator/DisneyChannel shows. As of May 23rd, 2013, Leon's role on the site has been limited to reviews and ACOCO only.
* [[TheSmartGuy Carlyle]] (Real Name: Christopher Robert Cargill) -- The dude who was usually the defender of many films, and was known for his friendship with Ain't It Cool webmaster Harry Knowles and his love of Creator/MichaelBay and Quentin Tarantino films. Called Massawyrm on Ain't It Cool News and Twitter. Has since left the site to work as a screenwriter and an author.
%%Due to various reasons, it's in good taste NOT to openly state the reviewers' real names here as this page did before.%%

The site went through major changes on May 23, 2013 as a result of their parent company - hollywood.com - having a budget cut, which triggered a site-wide layoff both on hollywod.com and Spill (but not Goatsey! Even hollywood.com thinks Goatsey is essential to Spill). The revision of the site was dubbed "[[Franchise/MarvelCinematicUniverse Phase Two]]" by Korey. The site later reverted back to its tradition with most of the content focused on the core crew. Some of the fired crew members have gone on to continue posting content on sites like [[http://www.rageselect.com Rage Select]] and [[http://www.oneofus.net One Of Us]]. On December 6, Korey announced that Hollywood.com had decided to pull the plug on Spill due to it no longer being profitable. In a goodbye blog post he thanked everyone who has supported the site over the years.

But [[http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/573779592/it-aint-going-down-like-that-korey-colemans-new-si It Ain't Going Down Like That!!!]] In response to the fan outcry from the site's cancellation, Korey Coleman launched a Kickstarter campaign to fund a new website based on the old Spill.com. Within five days into their campaign, they had already three times their target goal of $30,000. WebVideo/DoubleToasted, [[http://doubletoasted.com the website]] the Kickstarter funded is now finished and features new movie reviews and other podcasts by Korey Coleman and Martin Thomas (who played Leon).

Though Spill.com is now defunct, an archive of the site's podcasts can be found [[https://www.youtube.com/user/SpillArchive/videos here]]. Their video reviews have become private on both of their Website/YouTube channels, but a selection of their most recent ones can still be viewed under Hollywood.com's [[https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL39B87A4F5D97925A channel]], and even more of their video content can be found [[http://www.funnyordie.com/spill here]].

----
!!Videos & Podcasts aired:
* ''A Couple of Cold Ones'' - A podcast that aired on Mondays hosted by Korey and Leon (and formerly Carlyle). They discuss the box office's top five, gossip, and read fan e-mails.
* ''Let's Do This!'' - A podcast between Korey and Co-Host 3000 and Billy (who joined after several years, and was initially known as "Uncle Popcorn"). It began as a spin-off of ''A Couple of Cold Ones'' when Co-Host temporarily filled in for Carlyle. It proved to be so popular they made it it's own entity. The show claims to specialize in "bullshit" and is mainly the three hanging out. However, over the past couple years, and especially since the addition of Billy, the show has become more intense, sometimes dealing with race and political issues, often to the chagrin of the [[FanDumb fandom]].[[invoked]] Alan, once a humble Spillio, stayed overnight at Korey's place for six months and became a semi-regular. Known for his fear of horses and quiet demeanor, he is perhaps the largest [[Film/TheLastDragon Sho'Nuff]] fan in existence.
* ''The Spill Call-In Show'' - Korey takes calls from and talks to fans on the site. It had no set day but generally aired on Saturdays.
* SPOILED: Korey and Co-host 3000 answer spoiler questions of the latest movies or television episodes from their fans. Surprisingly, Leon aka The Spoiler is not part of the podcast.
* The Daily Spill: a new podcast that aired throughout the week from Monday to Thursday in which Korey and Cyrus discuss the latest news in movies, television and occasionally video games. The podcast gives a run-down on new home video releases on Tuesday and new movie trailers on Thursday. Whenever Korey or Cyrus aren't available they are usualy replaced by Co-Host 3000.

!!!Past podcasts:
* ''Blu Tuesday'' - Another hour long podcast between Korey and Carlyle. It specialized in new DVD releases. It aired on [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin Tuesdays]]. It was announced on the 8/30/2010 episode of A Couple of Cold Ones that Blu Tuesday was cancelled.
* ''The League of Extremely Ordinary Gentlemen'' - A podcast between Leon and Cyrus that specializes in Nerd properties such as Comic books, science fiction, and general TV and movies. The podcast airs on Fridays and regularly features guest stars. It also includes some of Leon and Cyrus's real friends who make up the rest of the League. The show came to an end on May 17th, 2013. Three of the members launched a continuation of sorts with "The Original Gentlemen" (later renamed "The Gathering") podcast on [[http://www.oneofus.net One Of Us]]
* ''The Loading Bar'' - Korey hanging out with his friends Kevin J. Baird from Video Game News, Nick Hodges, Jason Murphy, and Professor Jeff to talk about video games they just played, mostly Xbox 360 games, as well as hosted ''The Loading Bar Call-In Show'', which functions very similar to the aforementioned Spill version. The Loading Bartenders are now [[http://www.rageselect.com/ Rage Select]] after leaving Spill.
* ''Remote Viewing'' - The spiritual successor to Blu Tuesday, hosted by Cyrus and Film School Rejects, Brian Salisbury and Luke Mullen. The podcast debuted on 12/8/2011 and was aired bi-weekly for the first few months, covering new home video releases in the last 2 weeks, with an episode of the podcast usually clocking in at around 3 hours or more. The podcast officially became a weekly show on 6/19/2012. The podcast regularly has special guests joining the discussion. The crew covers not only the movie itself, but also the extra contents on the package, video/audio transfer quality and even movie subtitles. Replaced as of May 23rd, 2013 with the Tuesday sub-section of The Daily Spill as well as the Digital Noise podcast on [[http://www.oneofus.net One Of Us]]
* ''Untitled Billy and Korey show'' - a spinoff from Let's Do This where Billy and Korey have freeform conversation based on the topics suggested by Spillios. The podcast was irregular and short-lived as it was laid off before it got a proper name when the site went into the Phase Two revision.

----
!!Tropes:

* AIIsACrapshoot: Korey claims that Co-Host's creator abandoned him because he was "too much of a smartass to handle".
* ArchEnemy: [[Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg Friedberg And Seltzberg]]. Particularly to Korey. Later on, he'd take a lot of umbrage to Marlon Wayans (due in large part to strongly disliking ''Film/AHauntedHouse''.
** Co-Host has an intense (and, initially, almost irrational) hatred for Kevin James. To the point that, in the start of their review for ''Here Comes the Boom'', he exclaims loudly that he's willing to give it a "FUCK YOU"!
* ArtEvolution: For the longest time, the video reviews were a lot of StockFootage of them discussing the film at the table, with a few clips of related gags. The newer reviews have been almost entirely unique animation. Also of note is how Leon now has a graying soul patch in his beard, indicating his status as the CoolOldGuy of the group.
* AscendedExtra:
** Nick Hodges started out as a member of the Spill forums, occasionally appearing on episodes of ACOCO and the annual "Let's Have It!" podcast. Around two years later, he was invited to join The Loading Bar.
** Professor Jeff was initially hired as an animator, but Korey decided to make him the host of The Loading Bar's reviews after being exposed to Jeff's vast knowledge of video games.
** Fungus Monkey (also an animator) and Fish also joined Spill as members and were later hired as regulars on LEOG. Fish, however, was DemotedToExtra on at least two separate occasions.
* AwesomeMccoolname: The ''Film/StreetFighterTheLegendOfChunLi'' review uses trope, combined with NameMcAdjective.
-->'''Korey:''' What's this girl's name I'm looking for right here?\\
'''Carlyle:''' I think her name was Breasty Mchotpants.\\
'''Korey:''' Breasty Mcsuckass was -- Moon Bloodgood. Cool name, bad actress.
* BerserkButton: Everyone has their own, but for a while it was fans asking ''[[Film/TheDarkKnightRises Who should be the villain in Batman 3]]'' or [[http://api.ning.com/files/J1vbejF8nsRWQi0TD7QLRVtY0Sh7iRX6FGL-9qs0X6IDyhReOG6wz2oCbEjPEBXJp9cXBzv9anU4OyHHY9UFgNcLsJOD3EHM/nodarkknight.jpg Batman questions in general]].
** Korey's is people interrupting him in the middle of his point.
** Korey and most of the others also hate non-specific questions like "What is your favorite _______?"
** Another one for Korey is people who use the bathroom without locking the door.
** Yet another one for Korey: Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg
--> '''Korey:''' I want [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1HFpZS6exk these motherfuckers]] - Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer - ''[[WingdingEyes [His eyes light on fire] ]]''[[NoIndoorVoice I want their]] ''[[LosingYourHead goddamn heads]]'' '''''[[UnstoppableRage on my table]] [[LargeHam TOMORROW MORNING, SEVERED AT THE NECK, BLOOD CLEANED UP, ON A PLATE, DELIVERED TO ME!]]'''''
** Cyrus and Christianity.
** Carlyle would occasionally go berserk when someone compared a bad movie to Bratz or Daddy Day Camp.
** Leon and "Disney dad stories"--movies that follow a father who works hard to support his family, but apparently is an asshole because he doesn't spend enough time with the children.
** Although it's rarely discussed, Leon has been quite vocal about his hatred for teenagers and whiny twenty-something's. (See ''Film/CharlieBartlett'', ''Film/NickAndNorahsInfinitePlaylist'', and ''Post Grad''.)
** Co-Host, more than any other member of the crew, would be extremely unforgiving to children's films that he felt were dumbing themselves down for kids. Specifically, he notes how films like ''Marmaduke'' are made for purely commercial reasons, with minimal effort put in because the executives know that the target audience won't be asking much from them, something that's unforgivable in an era where Pixar's films show how great family entertainment can be.
* BetterThanSex: This is the name of the highest reviewer rating a movie can receive. To date (March 2011), only three movies (with the fourth one for the Justin Bieber film being a joke) have ever received such a rating from a majority of the crew.
* BitingTheHandHumor:
** The review for ''Film/HorribleBosses'' has Leon and Cyrus talking about how much they can relate to premise because of their own boss. Cue reaction shots on Korey.
** Occasionally, the Spill crew (usually Korey and Co-Host in their podcasts) will do this at the expense of the company that owns them, Hollywood.com.
* BlackComedyRape: The only "review" for ''Movie43'' is Korey sitting curled up in what looks like a prison shower with the... [[{{Squick}} pretty clear]] implication that he has been violated, followed by "F*** YOU!"
* BlackGalOnWhiteGuyDrama: [[DefiedTrope Defied]] by Korey in the ''Film/LakeviewTerrace'' review. He hates movies where black men get angry at black women dating white men, insisting that real black guys don't care about that...[[WhereDaWhiteWomenAt they're too busy chasing white girls.]]
* BrickJoke: Prevalent in video reviews, though some cases are likely to sneak into the confines of an audio one. The video for ''Film/TheIncredibleBurtWonderstone'' starts with Cyrus pulling a variety of objects from Leon's afro. After Korey becomes fed up with the crew dismissing his lukewarm review of the film, he decides to pull some magic of his own [[spoiler: and pops out of Leon's afro to scare Cyrus]].
* BrokeTheRatingScale: ''Film/DisasterMovie'' was so awful that it forced Korey to create the '''Fuck You!!!!''' rating. The rating stuck, despite it never becoming an official part of the system.
* ButtMonkey:
** For Korey and Co-Host, it's "Dem funny book boys" of LEOG. For the LEOG, it was ACOCO but that moved over onto The Loading Bar. For The Loading Bar (mostly Jason and Korey), it's Nick. Plus, you know, '''SHUT THE FUCK UP GRANT!'''
** Harris seems to be serving the role in LEOG, so much so that he got fed up with it and quit the show [[spoiler: as an April fools day prank]].
** Brian seemed to become the official Butt Monkey after joining as a member, earning constant ire from Rubio much in the way Harris did. In fact, the [[spoiler:April Fool's Day]] episode was supposed to originally just be a podcast about B-movies that Brian would help to co-host(he was a guest at the time). Leon and Cyrus would constantly mention in future episodes how embarrassed they were that the [[spoiler:prank]] fight overshadowed Brian's DayInTheLimelight.
** Rubio [[LampshadeHanging lampshaded]] his verbal abuse of Brian at [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FM2GZRrwhh8 Spill.Con]].
--->'''Leon:''' Poor, Brian. First episode to be a guest, and he went really prepared...\\
'''Brian:''' And I've never prepared for an episode since!\\
'''Leon:''' And Rubio, without even knowing Brian, decided to fuck him over. Which he would do from that point on.\\
'''John Rubio:''' The thing about me and Harris is that I absolutely think Harris is one of the best people I've met in my fucking life... Salisbury is a piece of shit, on the other hand.
** The one ButtMonkey everyone, including the forum members can all laugh at together, is "DJ" Kent. It didn't help matters either that his early review for ''X-Men Origins: Wolverine'' ended up on CNN.
* CausticCritic: The crew are more benevolent examples of this.
* CharacterCatchphrase:
** Korey: "Fuck yo thoughts!"
** Co-Host: "Don't tell me your problems!"
** Leon: "Tell some jokes!"
** Kevin: "Yes!/Right!"
* CharacterizationMarchesOn: Early on the guys went about portraying themselves as broad stereotypes (Korey was the womanizer, Cyrus was the virgin, etc.). However, once their podcasts became commonplace and they got to know their fans, they slowly dropped the pretense and are basically themselves now.
* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Edie, more or less. She has been mentioned on occasion in regard to her current life, and has briefly resurfaced in a 2010 podcast. Gone unreferenced for years now (as of November 2012).
* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Al Frank. Twice a guest on A Couple Of Cold Ones, his legends of woe and madness baffle, disturb and enrapture Korey and Leon (the latter to the point of tears, as affirmed in the 11/4/12 ACOCO). A self-described practitioner of "Hoodoo."
* ClusterFBomb: Too many instances to count.
** The most notable being the entire ''Film/MeetTheSpartans'' and Meek's Cutoff reviews.
--->'''Leon:''' Ok, you guys have said fuck 47 times now.\\
'''Co-Host:''' '''''FUCK YOU!!!'''''
** There's also ''Film/{{District 9}}''...
--->'''Carlyle:''' Shut the fuck up, motherfucker, cause you're about to get '''FUCKED'''!
** And ''Film/GiJoeTheRiseOfCobra''.
--->'''Co-Host:''' I fuckin' thought somebody had fuckin' put something in my fuckin' drink.
** There's a surprising number of N-bombs dropped in the latter half of the ''Film/{{Grindhouse}}'' review, which ultimately results in [[AmusingInjuries Cyrus]] [[KarmicDeath hanging]].
** The ''Film/DjangoUnchained'' review also has Korey and Co-Host dropping Cluster N-Bombs to criticize the film's use of such.
* CoolandUnusualPunishment: When Prof. Jeff keeps dying and getting lost on the Happy Hour of Super Metroid, Jason threatens to bust out the fanfiction. Erotic Metroid Fanfiction. And he does. HilarityEnsues.
* DeadpanSnarker: During an episode of ACOCO, Carlyle was asked what actor he would like to see play him in a movie. His answer was Creator/RyanReynolds because "He's got that deadpan snarker attitude like I do."
* DemotedToExtra:
** Carlyle has stopped appearing in reviews, the last one with him being ''Film/{{Clash of the Titans|2010}}'', only showing up to do ACOCO until eventually leaving that as well. This is actually because he has two other jobs reviewing movies and was burning out, so it was his own choice.
** A good chunk of the LEOG went from regulars to Support League status on their own volition.
* DrivenToSuicide: Korey's reaction to [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1HFpZS6exk Disaster Movie]].
* EverybodyLaughsEnding: Frequent.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: Their pragmatic middle ratings. Genuinely intended to convey how much effort and money you should put into seeing the movie.
* Expy: Co-Host is a beer drinking, womanizing, foul mouthed Mexican robot. [[WesternAnimation/{{Futurama}} Sound familiar?]]
* FiveTokenBand
* FMinusMinus: The unofficial "F**K YOU!" rating.
* FourPointScale: Most movies will go between Full Price and Some Ol' Bullshit. Very few movies have gotten an overall Better than Sex rating, and a movie has to be [[Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg incredibly]] [[Film/TheLastAirbender bad]] to get a Fuck You rating.
* FunWithAcronyms: The website's podcasts are usually known by their acronyms, but the one for A Couple of Cold Ones (ACOCO) is quite catchy.
* GirlScoutsAreEvil: In the Film/KickAss review, and the trope image.
* HasAType: Cyrus has a well known love of redheads.
* HeterosexualLifePartners: Jason and Prof. Jeff spend a lot of time together (Mostly due to Happy Hours). So much so that Jason's wife has taken to calling Jeff "The other woman".
* HumanFocusedAdaptation: CoHost calls it the He-Man Syndrome.
* HollywoodAtheist:
** Cyrus. The mere mention of God or religion causes him to either get super angry or bitterly sarcastic. Also quite evident whenever he reviews a film with religious themes such as ''Film/TheBookOfEli''. Though he claims to only be agnostic, Carlyle, the TokenReligiousTeammate, claims he's pretty blatantly an atheist or at least an agnostic-atheist.
** Averted with Korey and Leon and most of the LEOG, almost all of them don't believe in God but are far from angry and attempt to support opposing views.
* HotLibrarian: Cat.
* IHaveBoobsYouMustObey: The LEOG Geek Girls often use this.
* IdiosyncraticRatingsScale: From best to worst:
** BetterThanSex! - The BrokeTheRatingScale rating, given for films which are beyond the expectation for a good film and magnificently set a new cinematic standard.
** Full Price!! - Genuinely good films according to current standard, has little to no flaws.
** Matinee! - Entertaining films with some jarring flaws that doesn't justify paying full price for, but still worth seeing at the theater.
** Rental - A subjective rating, usually it refers to a movie that is not good enough to see at a theater but is not terrible. Sometimes it just refers to a movie that can be viewed better at home (such as a horror movie or a comedy).
** Some Ole Bulls** t! - Films that are poorly made, or films that are simply bad but doesn't offend the viewers in any way.
** F** k You!!! - An unofficial rating, the equivalent of the Better Than Sex rating for bad films. These films are bad to the point of being offensive to the viewers and the Spill crew, often in more ways than one.
* InkSuitActor
* InsistentTerminology: Cyrus is from ''Virginia'', not ''West Virginia''.
* IronicEpisodeTitle: A Couple of Cold Ones is the podcast that features the hosts drinking the least.
* {{Kayfabe}}: Aside from referring to each other via aliases sans Korey, they all have "characters" they play in reviews that are exaggerated versions of their real personalities. Downplayed in podcasts with the exception of Co-Host, where they go out of their way to maintain the act of him being a robot (for example, he'll refer to his family members as "people who like to act like [his] family").
* LargeHam:
** Cyrus, Grant, and Co-Host (occasionally).
** Korey does this during the review of ''Film/ParanormalActivity4'', speaking in a booming voice reminiscent of a black Baptist preacher (complete with appropriate dress) while describing how much he hated the film.
-->'''Korey:''' You're bein' HORNSWOGGLED! You're bein' BAMBOOZLED! You're bein' TRICKED, into goin' to see something that you've seen before, and you're bein' RIPPED! OFF! Now listen to me! If I can stop just ONE of you from going to see this movie, then I will feel like I've done my job. But if i CAN'T do that, then I will TELL YOU, like I will tell this movie: Fuck you, FUCK YOU, '''FUCK YOUUUU!'''
** Brian takes this tropes to [[WorldOfPun new levels.]]
* LostEpisode:
** Many audio reviews from late 2006-summer 2010 were never released until December 2010. Plenty of other reviews, such as ''Film/CasinoRoyale2006, Film/TheCuriousCaseOfBenjaminButton, Film/InglouriousBasterds'' and ''Film/WintersBone'' are still missing, though.
** Also, the infamous LEOG Halloween episodes.
* MagicalNegro:
** Creator/MorganFreeman is often referred to as the [[Film/EvanAlmighty "magical]], [[Film/{{Wanted}} mystical]] [[Film/TheDarkKnightTrilogy negro"]].
** During one review, Cyrus fears that he and Carlyle are only kept on the site to be Korey and Leon's [[TokenWhite "magical, mystical white guys".]]
* MindScrew: The Time Travel episode of LEOG starts with the last segment, [[ChuckCunninghamSyndrome Beau is back,]] and Harris is dating [[RememberTheNewGuy some woman named Kelly.]] [[spoiler: it turns out it was the result of Leon tampering with Peters Time machine/web shooters]]
* NWordPrivileges: One of their main problems with ''Film/DjangoUnchained'' was that they felt that Creator/QuentinTarantino ''didn't'' have these privileges, and that his previous overuse of it in his last films made the overuse of it in ''Django'', even in a proper time period, more gratuitous - especially when Leon and Cyrus pointed out they were the only black folks in the theatre, uncomfortably watching a nearly-totally-white audience laughing at various racist jokes in the film. It's also used in the video review, where Leon tackles on the TokenWhite Cyrus and beats the shit out of him (off-screen) after he tries to use the N-word like Korey and Co-Host did throughout the review.
* NatureAbhorsAVirgin: Early on, Cyrus was often mocked for being a virgin.
* NoJustNoReaction: The Film/VampiresSuck video review consists of a 45-second clip of Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg's trademark "humor" (two {{Cutaway Gag}}s made to make dated references to the pop culture at the time). The last seven seconds is Cyrus staring at the camera before delivering his grade: ''' "FUCK YOU."'''
* NothingExcitingEverHappensHere: In their review of ''Film/HarryPotterAndTheDeathlyHallows: Part 1'':
-->'''Leon:''' This is for everybody who's been reading or watching the movies up till now.\\
'''Co-Host:''' What do I have to research? Because the movie I saw tonight, nothing goddamn happened. I mean, it was just kids hanging out in the woods. There was nothing going on...
* OfficialCouple:
** Currently within the LEOG: Harris and Cat
** As well as Mandy Savage and Peter "Fungus Monkey".
* OncePerEpisode:
** For the Podcasts: The top 5 and emails on ACOCO. Goatsie playing guitar and the "Fuck yo thoughts!" section on Let's Do This.
** Whenever Carlyle is on ACOCO: "Live from the Spill Studios located behind a liquor store on the I35 interchange, it's time once again for a A Couple of Cold Ones with Korey, Leon and Carlyle."
** Korey finding new ways to introduce the Top 5, bonus points if he manages to trick Leon.
** "Long Live the League!"
* PeripheryHatedom: Invoked. Korey attempts to avert this by trying to review most things from the viewpoint of the intended audience. The others often ridicule him for this.
* ThePollyanna: Good lord, Randy. The man gets cancer and is immediately cracking jokes about it.
* PrecisionFStrike: Many:
** Most of their reviews are [[ClusterFBomb no stranger to curses]], but the more coarse ones get [[SoundEffectBleep bleeped the]] [[SelfDemonstratingArticle f***]] out.
** The ''Vampires Suck'' review, on the other hand, consists entirely of two uncensored words. "Fuck you."
** The beginning of the Hancock review:
--->'''Cyrus:''' Spill.com presents a family friendly review of Hancock.\\
'''Carlyle:''' [[DoesThisRemindYouOfAnything Han, what?]]\\
'''Cyrus:''' Aw, '''FUCK''', Carlyle!
* ProductPlacement: The site has been getting shit for this lately as they have been paid to advertise ''Film/{{MacGruber}}'' and ''Film/JonahHex2010'', going so far to make animated videos for them...never mind the fact they mostly panned the actual films in their reviews.
* PungeonMaster:
** Cyrus aka '''The [=PUNisher=]'''
** Brian Salisbury is quickly becoming one, as well.
* RememberWhenYouBlewUpASun: When Korey threw a chair (at a wall) back when they were on access television.
* ReviewIronicEcho:
** Their review of ''Film/SuckerPunch'': "You know what? Take the 'Punch' out of it, just 'Sucker', alright?" -- said Korey Coleman.
** ''Literature/{{Beastly}}'' review:
--->'''Co-Host 3000:''' I will give the movie credit though: You are given a fair warning at the very beginning, where you see one of the fucking err... fugly Olsen twin--\\
'''Leon:''' Olsen twin?\\
'''Co-Host 3000:''' --addresses the screen and addresses the audiences by tell[ing] them "Get ready to embrace the suck."\\
(''Spill crew's laughter'')\\
'''Co-Host 3000''': Wow, you really embrace it.\\
'''Leon:''' That-that is ballsy for a movie to ''look'' you in the eyes and tell you "Embrace the suck"!\\
'''Korey:''' By the way, none of us embrace this, okay? It was forced upon us.\\
'''Cyrus:''' However, we acknowledge that it did in fact, suck.
** ''Film/CopOut'' review: "I mean, just think about -- Okay, the name of this movie is 'Cop Out', and this... that name alone has so much more hidden meanings into it than we'll ever know because Holy Jesus! I cannot believe what I suffered through tonight." said Co-Host 3000.
** ''Film/TheCabinInTheWoods'' review: "It gave me a cabin in the ''[[IncrediblyLamePun wood]]''" -- guest reviewer Brian Salisbury.
** ''A Thousand Words'' review:
--->'''Co-Host 3000:''' Have we--Have we mentioned the title of this movie?\\
'''Korey:''' A Thousand Words.\\
'''Co-Host 3000:''' No, no. Actually, it's ''A Thousand Deaths of Creator/EddieMurphy''.\\
(''Korey's laughter'')\\
'''Co-Host 3000:''' 'Cause every goddamn frame is literally killing Eddie Murphy's career.\\
'''Korey:''' Oh, I though you were gonna say ''A Thousand Words Can't Describe How Bad This Movie Is''.
* RevolvingDoorCasting: LEOG
* RobotBuddy: Co-Host 3000
* RogerRabbitEffect:
** In episodes where Korey and Grace Randolph (from ''Beyond the Trailer'') team up to give their movie wish lists like for ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises''.
** Also done in the groups parody trailer for ''Film/MacGruber'', wherein an animated Korey, Cyrus, Cohost and Leon are inserted into the film's actual trailer.
* RunningGag: '''Tons'''.
** In fact the Let's Do This! podcast is so deeply based in its running gags that it is often joked that it is borderline impossible for a new fan to listen to it.
** On LEOG, some members have a tendency to accidentally refer to Leon as his real name ("Martin). Usually, either Leon or Cyrus are quick to joke that Martin is actually the name of Leon's driver.
* ScreamsLikeALittleGirl: During the Loading Bar Happy Hour of Slender, we learn that Korey, Professor Jeff and Jason all do this. Especially Korey.
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere:
** Cyrus has walked out of movies the most out of the four reviewers, usually due to the movie being so terrible he can't stand it. Korey, and occasionally Leon, do it to a lesser extent by falling asleep.
** Harris pulls one after Rubio keeps making fun of his love of anime. [[spoiler: turns out it was an April fools day joke between him and Rubio on the audience.]]
** Similar to Harris and Rubio, Cyrus and CoHost had an infamously real fight during the ''Lockout'' review that culminated in them each leaving the recording session in anger. Luckily, the [[TrueCompanions two managed to hug it out]] almost immediately afterward.
** Some of the members have alluded to having a "one walk out per season" policy leading to jokes about not giving a movie the satisfaction of making them use their one walkout.
* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Early in the site's history they brought on Edie, but she ended up leaving. Later they brought in actual Spill fan Tessa to review but she lived in New York and could only review when Korey was up there. Meanwhile, Cat is currently the TokenGirl of the LEOG.
* SpinOff:
** [[http://www.loungegeeks.com/ Lounge Geeks,]] which spun out of the LEOG podcast and is made up of mostly ex-League members.
** [[http://www.doctornerdlove.com/ Dr. NerdLove, ]] which spun off the Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World episode of the LEOG and is run by Harris.
** [[https://www.youtube.com/user/RageSelect Rage Select]], which spun off as a SpiritualSuccessor of The Loading Bar after it got cancelled and is run byn Jeff and Jason.
* SpiritualSuccessor: ''Spill'' is technically one towards ''The Reel Deal'', which started out as an public access television show which still used the critics' real names along with more people in the show's cast. After the show ended, ''The Reel Deal'' resurfaced with an internet animated review format until they were picked up by a company and evolved into Spill, creating aliases for everyone except Korey in the process.
** WebVideo/{{DoubleToasted}}, the site Korey and Martin (Leon) created through Kickstarter after Spill.com ended acts as one to Spill. Think of it as Spill minus Cyrus and CoHost.
** [[http://oneofus.net One of us.net]] for Cyrus, with frequent apperance by Martin and some other critics.
* StealthPun: Cyrus, [[SarcasmMode surprise]], pulls off a nice one in the ''American Reunion'' review.
-->'''Korey:''' Well, I had to do some ''Film/AmericanPie'' math here.\\
'''Cyrus:''' You have to multiply the first movie by 3.14.
* TokenGirl: Edie, originally. Currently Cat is the only main girl on the LEOG, the rest have been DemotedToExtra.
* TokenReligiousTeammate: Carlyle, though he rarely ever brings it up outside of the occasional podcast segment.
* TrueCompanions: The main critics, who have been friends for years and are as close as a family, The LEOG, and the Spill fan community.
* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Joked about regarding Creator/OlgaKurylenko. After [[Film/QuantumOfSolace James Bond]], [[Film/MaxPayne Max Payne]], and [[Film/{{Hitman}} Agent 47]] ALL were ([[IgnoreTheFanservice somehow]]) not interested in sleeping with her, Cory reasoned that she was actually a ladyboy.
* WhereDaWhiteWomenAt: Billy from Let's Do This! Has a fondness for the white women. Rachel, featured recently on Let's Do This, is living proof.
