Also, he wasn’t greedy enough to sell his own kids and was actually prepared to fight for his daughter’s freedom before he was forced to leave her with the Beast.

* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: In his first appearance, Old Man called Phelous "completely useless now" because he "hasn't been funny since Film/MacAndMe", Phelous' first movie review. Being "not funny" has nothing to do with "being wet".

** He doubts that "[[{{Creepypasta}} Squidward's Suicide]]" will be scary because "who the hell really cares what happens to a cartoon, am I right?" This is accompanied by a still from the ''animated'' movie he comes from, with the Beast terrorizing him.

* DecompositeCharacter: [[PlayedForLaughs A completely pointless example]]. In Phelous’s review of ''Film/TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles2014'', the original Shredder gets killed by a new Shredder, [[SuspiciouslySimilarSubstitute who is the exact same character]] [[CostumeEvolution but with a much more authentic helmet and mask]]. This was done to mock the way the film’s Shredder was handled and also to introduce the new costume.

* EvilVsEvil: When he and Wabuu are cast as the Beast and Gaston respectively in Phelous’s ''Beauty and the Beast'' parody. Wabuu ends up winning and kills the Beast.
* TheGamblingAddict: He doesn’t join the Jungle Kings on the soccer field in ''WesternAnimation/AnimalSoccerWorld'' because he’s [[BlatantLies just too old to play]]. In reality, he’s too busy placing bets on which team will win, and [[ThrowingTheFight asks his own to intentionally throw the game]].
* TheGoodKing: [[MoralMyopia In his mind, he's that]]. In reality...not so much.

* TalkingToThemself: Unsurprisingly, his distinct dopey voice tends to be heard in many other Dingo characters, like Chief Powhatan in ''Pocahontas'' or the bear in ''Wabuu'', and King [=MahGod=] tends to get into lengthy and inane arguments with them.

Robin.




* AdaptationalJerkass: Paige in particular, who comes off as more actively malicious here than in the source material where she was simply more naive.
* BodySurf: Like [[Series/QuantumLeap Sam]], this version of Aladdin time travels by entering the bodies of characters in various media that Phelous reviews.
* {{Catchphrase}}: For Paige, it's "Aladdin, do something!"
* CompositeCharacter: They operate more or less like their canon selves - except with more {{Jerkass}} - but the way they use time travel is more like the main characters of ''Series/QuantumLeap'' than in their own movie proper.

* SimpletonVoice: His voice can aptly be described as a simpleton trying to sound regal and dignified (and failing).
