* RewritingReality: In this universe, authors, if they have the right equipment, are able to write out stories and have settings come to life within a few keystrokes, even if they're the same stories and settings used countless times. They can also summon characters to play certain roles and can even force them to do something that they normally wouldn't. Though they only seem to have direct control over what the ''story'' is seeing. Anything that's "off-screen" or away from the story's perspective is out of the author's control.

--> "''The cast was chosen for the story's umpteenth rendition. There was practically no difference to this story other than a change of faces. It was to be the same old story of princess pricks finger on wheel, sleeps instead of dies, prince rescues princess with the help of magic fairies, and everyone living happily ever after. This story was ingrained in the heads of everyone, so it would be practically easy to re-enact the story word for word. But for this rendition... Something... happened.''"
-->-- OpeningNarration of ''Sleeping Blooper''

In a FilmFic about Disney/SleepingBeauty, the cast of characters are put in their roles and ready to do the umpteenth iteration of the well known film [[TransplantedCharacterFic with almost little to no change whatsoever]]. And then things happened. Ranging from WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirls (Buttercup specifically) giving [[VideoGame/KingdomHearts Kairi]] the gift of beating people up to Film/VanHelsing shooting [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Chrysalis]] in the head [[KilledMidSentence in the middle of her monologue]].

Thus beginning a series of {{Film Fic}}s that went OffTheRails. This is the Fanmake Blooper Series, a series of {{Film Fic}}s (or as they’re referred to in the fanfic, "Fanmakes") that ask the question "What if the Film Fics were cast, directed, and shot like an actual film?" and lays the common flaws and tropes of a fanmake out to the field and lambasts them, sometimes calling out specific Film Fics.

Currently, the series is a trilogy.
*The first part is '''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8377020/1/Sleeping-Blooper Sleeping Blooper]]''', a parody of Sleeping Beauty that follows a scenario [[WhyDontYouJustShootHim where one of the guards takes out Maleficent during her cursing scene]].
* The second part is '''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8499390/1/Blooper-And-The-Beast Blooper and the Beast]]''', which parodies Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast, sticking to the rails rather than going off them while parodying or subverting the fanmake tropes.
*The third part is '''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/8727992/1/Shadow-Of-The-Beast Shadow of the Beast]]''', which follows another fanmake of Beauty and the Beast, but has [[Franchise/SonicTheHedgehog Shadow]] as the main character trying to rescue Maria from the clutches of Tai Lung.
----
! The Fanmake Blooper Series has the following Tropes:
*ADayInTheLimelight: Shadow of the Beast is this for Shadow, even going as far as going for a first person perspective.
*AdaptationalHeroism:
** A minor example thanks to miscasting. [[LightNovel/SwordArtOnline Oberon]] manages to snag the role of Elrond.
** A slightly major example comes in the form of [[spoiler:[[WhoFramedRogerRabbit Judge Doom]], who acts less of an antagonist and more of an investigator who informs Shadow of what happened to Maria. Though he’s not that much of a hero, [[TheDreaded as toons still fear him]]]].
*AscendedExtra: Both in and out of the fanmake for Van Helsing. In, because he was playing a nameless guard before shooting Chrysalis, and out, as he just did one action and spoke one line of dialogue, but managed to become one of the protagonists for the rest of the fanfic and one of the few central characters to appear in future fanfics.
*AnAssKickingChristmas: Chapter 5 of Blooper and the Beast, which is based entirely off the Christmas special of Beauty and the Beast, with the exception that the focus is switched to a crossover fanfic in which KamenRiderDecade, [[KaizokuSentaiGokaiger GokaiRed]], Sonic and Sora team up and have a battle against Xaldin and Forte.
*BadassBoast: Shadow in the beginning of Shadow of the Beast. [[spoiler:Too bad Minion breaks it by saying he played a Princess]].
--> "''''[[{{WesternAnimation/Megamind}} You]] '' [[HeroKiller killed a superhero]]? Heh. I killed ''several'' special force agents, aliens from another world, ''and'' [[DidYouJustPunchOutCthulhu the god of time]]. I've been in the shoes of many roles, including the man who you are filling in. I am the UltimateLifeForm, capable of [[TimeStandsStill stopping time]] and slitting your throat if I so wished. You? From what I see, you're just a poser, unworthy of the role of Gaston. Gaston was a man of arrogance, a man who dedicated his very life to making a woman his by any means.''"
*BetterThanABareBulb: Tropes are either parodied, subverted, lampshaded or deconstructed over the span of three fanfics.
*BigBad: Each Blooper has one, sometimes two due to the derail changing the intended BigBad.
** Sleeping Blooper: The intended Big Bad was Chrysalis (as Maleficent), though she gets shot in the head by Van Helsing, so she gets replaced by [[WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog Facilier]]... only for him to become TheDragon to [[spoiler: Orion Cox]].
** Blooper and the Beast: The intended villain was Shadow (as Gaston), but due to him sharing no interest in [[{{Literature/Twilight}} Bella]] (as Belle), the focus is shifted to [[RageAgainstTheAuthor The Author of the Fanmake himself]]. There’s also Forte if you count him as such.
** Shadow of the Beast: It’s shaping up to be [[WesternAnimation/KungFuPanda Tai Lung]] (as the Beast), [[spoiler: who may not actually ''be'' Tai Lung, but rather [[SelfInsertFic an author who was turned into Tai Lung]]]].
* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: Blooper And The Beast ends with the author of the Beauty and the Beast fanmake is silenced and everyone went back home, but Adam has no home to go to and he is separated from the one person he truly loved. He get better in Shadow of the Beast, serving as the new bartender and even managing to convince Megamind to form the angry mob to [[StormingTheCastle storm Tai Lung’s castle]].]]
* BookEnds: The first chapter of Blooper and the Beast ended with the iconic "For who could ever learn to love a beast?", and the final chapter ended with "For who could ever learn to love a puppet?"
*CerebusSyndrome: Twofold. While Sleeping Blooper was just comedic and light-hearted, even when a BigBad is revealed, both Blooper and the Beast and Shadow of the Beast get hit with this, in varying degrees.
** Blooper and the Beast goes in the degree that there are more important plotlines going on instead of just hilarity ensuing.
** Shadow of the Beast has a more traditional DarkerAndEdgier slant, where a major focus is more on the story line than on the parodying. Though the first and second chapters were comedic... until Shadow encounters Tai Lung.
* ContemplateOurNavels: Lampshaded when the BigBad of Sleeping Blooper tries to pull a BreakingSpeech by saying how fanmakes will just keep on repeating and that death is a good alternative.
* CompletelyMissingThePoint: Marik fires Shadow, not because he botched the "One does not simply walk into Mordor" speech or even suggesting the memetic tactic of using the eagles, but by referring to them as hawks. [[SubvertedTrope THEN he starts calling]] [[DiscreditedMeme him out for the tactic]].
* {{Crossover}}: [[MegaCrossover A massive one to boot]], though Chapter 5 of Blooper and the Beast is probably a more straight forward example.
* DeconstructionFic: While most of the time it parodies the tropes of a Film Fic, there are times where they take a serious look at a trope and ask "If fanmakes were made like actual films, how would the cast react to it?". The answer? The authors are more like directors with the ability to act as God and even brainwash the actors into doing a role they either aren’t fit to play as or don’t wish to play, the characters are unpaid actors who are cast into unfitting roles and are understandably upset by it, and attempts to derail the fanmake, speeding up the fanmake by cutting corners so that they’d be done sooner, or [[HamAndCheese making the most of it]] are commonplace.
* DespairEventHorizon: Like the Beast, Sonic crosses this, but not because Bella left him. It’s because [[spoiler: he realizes that the author has the final say on when he’s back to being a hedgehog, which means that their attempts to speed up the story were all for naught]]... [[spoiler:Though it’s soon revealed that the author ''had'' Sonic act like that.]]
* DisneyVillainDeath: Subverted and parodied in Sleeping Blooper, but played straight in Blooper and the Beast.
* TheDragon: Facilier to [[spoiler:Orion]] (though considering how he was manipulated, it could be vice versa) and Xaldin to Forte.
* EarnYourHappyEnding: A dark take on the trope. [[spoiler:Orion Cox, with the encouragement from Facilier, decides to force marriage onto Kairi so that they can live HappilyEverAfter, as he plays Prince Phillip but acts more like Gaston]].
*{{Foreshadowing}}: When asked to perform a spell, the Enchantress tries to recall a transmogrification spell. As she tries to do so, she lists off some other spells she can do, a memory charm and a shield spell. The transmogrification spell also serves as foreshadowing. [[spoiler: The Enchantress is really Twilight Sparkle turned human with a transmogrification spell, and she has preformed both [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E23PonyvilleConfidential a shield spell]] and [[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS2E2TheReturnOfHarmonyPart2 a memory charm]].]]
*FriendToAllLivingThings: Parodied in Sleeping Blooper. Because Kairi lacked the singing voice that Buttercup was supposed to give her, she instead had a terrible singing voice. She managed to attract the birds, but only because the voice sounded more like a mating call.
*GenreSavvy: Mostly every main character in the series.
** GenreBlind: Charlie Swan, though this probably makes sense considering that he’s LockedOutOfTheLoop, just like in Twilight.
* HalfwayPlotSwitch: Blooper And The Beast, near the end, switches focus to the Christmas midquel. This brings the plot to such a screeching halt that [[spoiler:the author actually had to hire three characters who specialize in {{Massive Multiplayer Crossover}}s to go and deal with it. Though Sonic doesn’t mind that, since it ends the plot switch.]]
* HamAndCheese: InUniverse. Shadow spends some of his time in the roles he’s put in just maliciously poking fun in the position he’s in, when he’s not [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere leaving the fanmake out of frustration]]. Good examples of this are when he’s doing the role of [[Film/LordOfTheRings Boromir]] and when, with the help of a CrazyAwesome director and Van Helsing, managed to turn [[Film/BallisticEcksVsSever one of the most infamously bad movies]] into one of the most awesome.
--> "''One does not simply walk into [[ThomasTheTankEngine Sodor]]. [[CompletelyMissingThePoint You can take a boat, but you can't walk there]]. It is an island, filled with trains. Trains with the curse of having faces... they are the eyes of Sir Topham [[{{Anime/Inuyasha}} Naraku]], the Fat Controller. But... [[JustEatGilligan If we were to use the hawks...]]''"
* HowDareYouDieOnMe: Shadow says this to [[spoiler:Sonic once he breaks free of the mind control that caused him to mortally wound Sonic.]]
--> "''[[spoiler:Don't you dare die [[ContinuityNod again]]! [[ThatOneLevel It was hell trying to bring you back the first time!]]]]''"
* IdiosyncraticEpisodeNaming: Each fanfic has a different titling scheme. The fanfics themselves have the word Blooper replacing certain words, except for Shadow of the Beast.
** Sleeping Blooper has "The [verb] [noun]".
** Blooper and the Beast has chapter titles that parody scenes (an example is Chapter 5 being called "The Extremely Mandatory Midquel").
** Shadow Of The Beast has the chapter named after Shadow’s various roles.
* LargeHam: Orion Cox, even more so [[spoiler:[[EvilIsHammy when he’s the villain]].]]
* LemonyNarrator: This happens on several occasions.
* LetUsNeverSpeakOfThisAgain: Shadow says this to [[Franchise/StarWars Jar Jar]] in regards to the proposal scene.
*ManateeGag: One joke in particular had this in Shadow of the Beast depicting the almighty Dracula [[spoiler:as Lucy from ThePeanuts]].
*MindControlEyes: Two versions of this. One where there’s a red ring around the iris, and another where it’s DullEyesOfUnhappiness.
* NoNameGiven: Played with. Chrysalis wasn’t called by name in the show she was in (the comics, however, manage to do so) and so none of the characters know her name and just referred to her as the Hole-y Queen.
*NonindicativeName: The title itself suggests that bloopers are abound, though the fanfics themselves are more about how a fanmake gets derailed rather than the bloopers that ensue in one.
** ArtifactTitle: The first chapter of Sleeping Blooper fitted the title to a T. Then it started to turn into a nonindicative name.
* OffTheRails:
** The very reason why the fanfic was created in the first place was to have a fanmake that went off the rails by doing something that was so obvious to do in the first five minutes that even a guard was able to do it. It’s even the goal for a few characters to throw fanmakes off the rails, especially when Sleeping Blooper showed that they can make excellent shows.
** A Beauty and the Beast fanmake actually got derailed because certain details were skipped in favour of getting to the juicier parts. This results in Sonic not acting like how Beast initially was and being nice to both Bella and her father.
** By Shadow of the Beast, derailing a story was expected so much, that Van Helsing created an organization dedicated to derailing fanmakes.
** {{Railroading}}[=/=]TheStationsOfTheCanon: And yet they somehow manage to encounter scenes and plot points similar to the original in question. In fact, there’s references to the former trope in the form of train metaphors.
*OhCrap: The Author has this when [[spoiler:Bella’s mind shield prevents him from brainwashing her]].
* OneWingedAngel: Subverted. [[spoiler:Orion tries to do this, but Van Helsing vetoes this, due to his status as an author]].
* OriginalCharacter: Orion Cox and Adam. The former is a parody of one, while the latter is not. It also gets {{exploited|trope}} by Van Helsing. Since Original Characters have no canonical characterization outside of the one they’re given by the author, they can fit any role the author sees fit, [[spoiler:including a coward]].
* PapaWolf: Shadow towards Maria, and by extension, anyone that reminds Shadow of Maria, [[spoiler:as the cast of the Tom and Jerry Movie fanmake learn]]...
* RageAgainstTheAuthor: Blooper and the Beast’s entire finale is this.
* RememberTheNewGuy: Lampshaded by Sonic when he confronts Forte.
--> "''I don't even ''know'' you! I haven't played you! It wasn't until now that I found out about your existence!''"
* RightBehindMe: Max utters this when Bella enters Sonic’s castle.
* SarcasmFailure: Bella sarcastically tells her father that he would make a perfect inventor, and he takes that as a compliment.
* ScrewThisImOutOfHere: Shadow pulls this off when [[ItMakesSenseInContext he has to literally shake his ass at Harry Potter]] in one fanmake.
* SmugSnake: The Author of the Beauty and the Beast fanmake. He spends the entirety of Blooper and the Beast setting up everything so that his self-insert can kiss Bella by the end of the fanmake, including turning Sonic into a Werehog and forcing people to make the same moves that the characters in the original film did. Though once things don’t go his way, he suffers a VillainousBreakdown as he attempts to get everyone to obey him. Is it any wonder that [[spoiler:his own creation hates him]]?
* ShoutOut: Oooooh so much.
** Many of the character choices are based off actual Fanmakes that had those exact same choices.
** Terra asks Chrysalis how [[{{Manga/Bleach}} a commoner such as her knows about nobility]]. He then realizes that he mixed up the script.
** Van Helsing uses WesternAnimation/TheSwanPrincess to create a motivation for Facilier.
** Orion Cox is just two letters away from [[WesternAnimation/TransformersPrime Orion Pax]].
*** When looking at this fate, he shouts out "[[Anime/TengenToppaGurrenLagann Just Who The Hell Do You Think I Am?]]", leading to the response: "[[spoiler:[[Recap/TransformersPrimeS2E3OrionPaxPart3 You are my clerk.]]]]" Adam in the sequel says the former while doing a [[Film/ThreeHundred Sparta Kick]].
** In Blooper and the Beast, there’s an author by the name of [=DragonKnight07=]. In Japanese, this would be [[Franchise/WhenTheyCry Ryukishi07]].
** "Every being of [Shadow’s] fibre is screaming, "[[WebVideo/ PonyDotMov Crush! Kill! Destroy! Swag!]]"
** During Shadow’s lamenting, he states that he’s [[VideoGame/ShadowTheHedgehog "supposed to be the badass loading his pistol and riding on his motorcycle all while it's set to a badass theme song."]]
** Chapter 5 opens with Shadow recruiting [[Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame Frollo]] to be [[ActorAllusion the asylum owner]] after he gets thrown out of [[Anime/PantyAndStockingWithGarterbelt The Anarchy]] [[WebAnimation/TheFrolloShow House]].
** The RunningGag of Sora being referenced as Roxas happens when Sora confronts Xaldin. By then, Sora is pretty annoyed by it.
** "[[Series/PowerRangersSamurai Go big or go home, is it?]]"
*** In the same chapter, Tsukasa pulls out the [[Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger Rekka Daizantou]] again.
** Whenever a character is forced to act out of character, their eyes [[Anime/CodeGeass have a red ring around their iris]].
** "[[Recap/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagicS1E26TheBestNightEver And you're... going to... LOVE HER!]]"
** Adam states when he’ll stop [[spoiler:regretting his murder of the author.]]: "[[{{Film/Casablanca}} Maybe not today, maybe not tomorrow, but soon. And for the rest of my life.]]". Van Helsing tells him he got the quote wrong.
** Shadow calls out Megamind for breaking out in a Music/MichaelJackson song instead of Gaston and asks "[[Literature/HarryPotter How dare you stand where he stood?]]"
** Muto and Marik act more like their Abridged Series counterparts.
* TheStarscream: Facilier’s plan is to take over the kingdom and thus when [[spoiler:Orion marries Kairi, he’ll backstab him and rule as King]].
* StockholmSyndrome: Pointed out by Cilan in Blooper and the Beast.
* SongFic: Subverted and defied on many occasions, with the first being because a lawyer from Fanfiction.net told them that {{song fic}}s are not allowed.
* TakeThat: As well as Fanmakes in general, there’s also several towards Sonic 06. There’s also one to Twilight and Jar Jar Binks, [[AcceptableTargets obviously]].
*ThouShallNotKill: [[spoiler:Averted, but acknowledged. Adam murdered his author and everyone gave him a horrified look ]].
* TimeSkip: Lampshaded in Sleeping Blooper, where the skip in question sped through the sixteen year gap of Sleeping Beauty and during the FridgeLogic it presents when [[NotAllowedToGrowUp the Powerpuff Girls don’t grow up along with Kairi]]. It gets lampshaded again in Blooper and the Beast.
* TookTheBadFilmSeriously: InUniverse.
** Kairi and the rest of the Kingdom Hearts characters do this. Kairi in particular, as she always acts out her lines and gets frustrated whenever things get derailed, plot points aren’t done correctly, or when the other characters aren’t playing their roles.
** In a dark example, Shadow took a bad film seriously too, though serious in the term that [[spoiler:he murdered someone in a fanmake because they were hurting someone that reminded him of Maria. Needless to say, for a guy who goes all HamAndCheese on a film, [[MyGodWhatHaveIDone he regretted it]].]]
* VillainSong: Subverted in Sleeping Blooper as Blossom stops the BigBad from singing "This Day Aria", as the song in question is a duet.
* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:The author suffers this when he realized that Bella and his OC are both equally rebellious.]]
* WhamEpisode: Chapter 5 of Blooper and the Beast. While the chapter by far [[BLAMEpisode had nothing to do with the rest of the story outside of a crossover]], it does contain a surprise. [[spoiler:The Enchantress is Twilight Sparkle]].
* WhamLine: It managed to make an EveryEpisodeEnding into one, as it reveals who a certain character is... That ending? "[[spoiler:Dear Princess Celestia...]]"
* WhatTheHellCastingAgency: InUniverse. Many times, a character is put into the role that they don’t fit in. This gets pointed out all throughout the fanfics, that there’s a scene in Blooper and the Beast that parodies it by having some of the characters talking about their miscasts.
* WhatTheHellHero: Shadow gives one to [[spoiler:Maria for leaving her "father", Muto, out to die in the snow]].
* WhereAreTheyNowEpilogue: This is how Sleeping Blooper ends as opposed to Van Helsing RidingIntoTheSunset.
** [[spoiler:Kairi becomes a Fanmake editor and gives advice to fanmake writers.]]
** [[spoiler:Ventus begins work on a Disney/OneHundredAndOneDalmatians fanmake, basing Roger of an OC based off Terra]].
** [[spoiler:Orion Cox is demoted to Van Helsing’s clerk.]]
** [[spoiler:The Powerpuff Girls are making their own Fanmake, Disney/TheSwordInTheStone, and it’s implied that [[VisualNovel/FateStayNight Saber]] is going to be Arthur.]]
* WhyDontYouJustShootHim: Parodied. Sleeping Blooper is made entirely from the logic of shooting an ObviouslyEvil sorcerer before she was able to curse the baby.
*WriteWhoYouKnow: Justified InUniverse. If an OriginalCharacter has no base to draw from, such as the author or an author’s friends or family, then they start to form their own personality based off the role and goal they’re given, and in the case of Orion Cox, [[spoiler:this becomes a bad thing]]. In the case of Adam, though? [[spoiler:It turned out alright]]...
* YouGottaHaveBlueHair: Orion Cox has bright blue hair, in parody of Original Characters.
