* DisappearedDad: Julien has one, but he came back (in search of Julien's money).

Added DiffLines:

* DoomedByCanon: Regarding the prequel, [[spoiler:considering that he was never mentioned in either the previous movies or the TV series, it was a ForegoneConclusion that something bad was going to happen to Ben. Sure enough, he dies by drowning in a frozen lake.]]


Added DiffLines:

* IdenticalGrandson: The prequel movie is set in the 60's and focuses on some of the Boys when they were kids. Thus, they're not played by their actors from the previous installments. With that said, Marc Messier (Bob), Yvan Ponton (Jean-Charles), and Luc Guérin (Marcel) were cast in that movie as their respective character's father, while Rémy Girard was cast as his character's uncle (namely Stan's Uncle Fred). Also, Michel Charette, who played Popol in the previous installments, made a cameo as Fred's cousin Raymond. Considering that Popol is also Stan's son, that means Popol looks just like his father's uncle's cousin.


Added DiffLines:

* {{Prequel}}: The fifth movie is set in the 60's and focuses on some of the Boys (namely Stan, Bob, Jean-Charles, Marcel, Fernand, and Méo) when they were kids.


Added DiffLines:

* TimeShiftedActor: The fifth movie is a prequel set in the 60's and focuses on the childhood of some of the Boys. As such, those same Boys are played by children as opposed to their actors from the previous movies and the TV series.

I had no idea that Suspiciously Similar Song was a YMMV trope. Moving it to the right page.


* SecurityCling: Jean-Charles and Martin hold onto each other when the two of them and Stan are inside the plane that Willie is driving and it looks like they're about to have a plane crash.

* SuspiciouslySimilarSong: The background music in the TrainingMontage from the fourth movie sounds an awful lot like "Gonna Fly Now" from ''Film/{{Rocky}}''.

* {{Irony}}: In the fourth movie, Marcel arrives late to a match. Much to the amusement of his teammates, Marcel, who's a parking officer, was late because he received a fine.
