In the 21st century where teachers assign creative projects to students, two heroes educate with style, skill, and sass. The 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 Twins whom think that Everybody Must Get Stoned and the evil Dr. Lucifer who plans to take over the world using calculus. This videos are also Troper Works, as the two main characters, Favio and Tony Muhplaah are tropers.There are currently four works completed so far:
The Dangers of Alcohol, in which Tony must fight LeTony in order to find his brother and save him from drinking. This was the first movie in the series and primarily starred Tony and LeTony because it was their assignment.
Anvilicious: Invoked intentionally for comedy. A notable example is when Favio tells Tony that drug money could be be spent on better things like Social Security and designer clothing.
Anticlimax Boss: LeTony and MaCavio merge into their ultimate being... but are so unable to function that they instantly fall over and are defeated.
"This is a story about my adventure with my partner, J.E.M. Stone, as we learn love, betrayal, and math."
Big Damn Heroes: Favio comes in and saves Tony before he takes ecstasy.
In A Powerful Foe, the the town watch comes from nowhere and scares away Bububbaba.
Big Lipped Alligator Moment: In one scene of A Powerful Foe, Tony approaches Favio to warn him about the presence of alcohol at the party - with a sword sticking out of his back and obvious signs of pain. Once the camera switches angles the sword is completely gone and never mentioned again.
Biting-the-Hand Humor: "Wait, what's it? Math and lasers? Who the hell wrote this thing?"
Blatant Lies: According to J.E.M. Stone, eating pretzels decreases the odds of having a card in Go Fish.
LeTony also suffers from this. It's a side effect of his alcohol/drug usage.
Comically Missing the Point: When MaCavio looks at Tony's phone, he sees that it says "message sent," and wonders what that means.
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.
Curb-Stomp Battle: LeTony completely defeats Tony in their second fight due to his inability to feel pain and sped up nervous system which resulted from his use of Ecstasy.
Bububaba gets one in his introduction to set up bait for future sequels.
Does This Remind You of Anything?: 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!"
Played straight with J.E.M. Stone when he reveals that his middle name is "Evil".
Final Speech: "With my dying breath, I must tell you both: meshuga!"
Flowery Insults: "J.E.M., you are the quintessence of nincompoopery!"
Fun with Acronyms: Averted in The Horrors of Ecstasy, in which the Horribly Illegal Drug Smuggling Operation is addressed as H.I.D.S.O., which means absolutely nothing
Used as a plot point in Mathematics Movie when J.E.M. reveals that his middle name is not Ulysses but is actually Evil.
Tony also makes many odd faces and movements whenever he's not giving a line.
G-Rated Drug: Since underage teens can't really be in possession of drugs, LeTony's ecstasy is just candy.
In A Powerful Foe, the man at the party who is supposed to be drinking beer is drinking colorful pieces of candy.
Getting Crap Past the Radar: Surprisingly, the perverted joke in the first movie's the drinking party didn't get caught by the teacher.
Good Morning, Crono: 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.
Gosh Darn It to Heck!: Usually played straight, though occasionally a few bigger words get in there.
Infodump: LeTony conveniently dumps information about his evil plans several times in The Horrors of Ecstasy. Lampshaded and used by the Favio Bros in order to save the day.
Informed Ability: In the introduction to the Mathematics Movie, J.E.M.'s lasers and Dr. Lucifer's ability to remove his thumb and death vision are never used.
Subverted with his Super Ventriloquism, which is actually put to use.
Lame Comeback: In The Dangers of Alcohol, "No you won't, you jerkface!"
Despite the introduction to The Mathematics Movie having the characters describe themselves, all three of them show powers which they didn't mention, particularly with Dr. Lucifer's Ultimate Fist Beam.
No, Except Yes: "We're not going to flee, we're going to run."
Noodle Incident: Favio and Tony head towards Bububaba's basement together in A Powerful Foe. Favio arrives in the room via the stairs, then Tony is seen coming from a crawlspace.
Obviously Evil: Besides all of the major antagonists, J.E.M. Stone's Face Heel Turn is fairly obvious in parts of the story.
Offscreen Teleportation: Despite Tony having numerous advantages due to LeTony being impaired by alcohol, LeTony still manages to get pretty far ahead of Tony in their chase scene.
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."
Tempting Fate: Favio in the beginning of The Horrors of Ecstasy, "Nothing can spoil this perfect day!"
Too Dumb to Live: 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 he's holding his phone upside down.
Training Montage: Tony and J.E.M. have a montage as they learn calculus.
Travel Montage: In the first and third films, a montage is used to show Tony (and Favio in the later) going to a party.
Traveling at the Speed of Plot: After Favio breaches Bububaba's room, Tony shows up a minute later crawling out of a small door.
Inverted in The Mathematics Movie when Tony and J.E.M. dash out of the house... and show up at Lucifer's Manor several days later.
