!Tropes found in ''Chroma''
* AgentScully: Karim acknowledges that this trope can be used to help the audience accept the supernatural explanation by making the down to Earth explanation increasingly unlikely, but he criticizes its use in ''Film/{{Signs}}'' (where the policewoman is just a dick about it) and ''Film/ParanormalActivity'' (where Micah ''does'' believe there is something supernatural going on, but [[ArbitrarySkepticism doesn't trust demonologists]] and [[BullyingADragon does his best to antagonize the demon]]).
* AlternateAesopInterpretation:
** {{Invoked}} for ''Film/{{Signs}}'', where Karim and Kamel are indentical in everything... except their opinion about the film. Karim thinks the film fails because he forcefully passes plot devices as "divine signals", which can fool the characters but not the viewers. Kamel points out that nothing in the film actually proves that the aliens are hostile, and that the characters who perceive divine signals might just as well be completely wrong; but the viewer is still led into adopting their point of view.
** Mocked in the review for ''Film/MacAndMe''. When Jeremy starts doing the same thing with the aliens from the movie, theorizing they were evil, Karim openly calls it bullshit.
* AlternateUniverse: Different parallel universes are featured, the one Karim lives in being apparently devoid of any of the greatest movies ever produced in the real world.
* AnAesop: Each of Chroma's episode contains one in relation with the movie the episode is about.
* BaitAndSwitch: The seventh review starts with Creator/OrsonWelles telling Karim to review [[Film/CitizenKane a film that revolutionized cinematic techniques, where the titular character dies early on and where we learn what happened through flashbacks recounted by people who knew him.]] Karin proceeds to review ''Film/{{Vidocq}}''.
* BullyingADragon: Karim mocks the tendency of Micah in ''Film/ParanormalActivity'' to deliberately antagonize the supernatural presence in his house in a sketch where Jeremy is playing a threatening demon who is being bullied by Gilles like he's a little kid.
* TheCameo: Several of Karim's friends appear in episode 6, notably the JoueurDuGrenier, whose own episodes Karim is writing.
* CensoredForComedy: The film's countless product placements and Kamel's {{Precision F Strike}}s are censored by a melodica note and a blurring machine in the ''Film/MacAndMe'' review. Of course, by the end the blurring machine breaks and Kamel asks the melodica man to stop it already.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Karim always refers to the demon in the ''Film/ParanormalActivity'' review as some variant of "the devilish demon from infernal hell".
* DullSurprise: Discussed in the ''Film/{{Signs}}'' review, which seems to be a contest of who can act the least. Not the worst, just… the least.
-->'''Karim:''' "...Yes? Ah, sorry, it seems Creator/MelGibson has crashed. Can someone reboot him? Quick, he's starting to have flashbacks!"
* EvilTwin: The alternate Jérémy is apparently up to no good.
* FramingDevice: Each episode of Chroma not only focuses on a movie, but also presents an overarching plot in which the greatest movies ever made are [[RetGone disappearing from existence]] and similar movies of far worse quality have become notorious in their place.
* ImNotDoingThatAgain: In the ''Troll 2'' review, he notes that the only way to be scared by the film would be "to watch it on a smartphone, chased by twenty hungry wolves." Before adding "And that's something I'll never do again."
* NamesTheSame: [[invoked]] The ''Film/Troll2'' review starts with a mention of ''Casa 5'', from the same director, and a long and confusing list of films that have similar names and serial numbers without being related to each other. He later notes that ''Film/Troll2'' isn't a sequel to ''Film/{{Troll}}'' either. And then the list continues.

!Tropes found in ''Chroma''
* AgentScully: Karim acknowledges that this trope can be used to help the audience accept the supernatural explanation by making the down to Earth explanation increasingly unlikely, but he criticizes its use in ''Film/{{Signs}}'' (where the policewoman is just a dick about it) and ''Film/ParanormalActivity'' (where Micah ''does'' believe there is something supernatural going on, but [[ArbitrarySkepticism doesn't trust demonologists]] and [[BullyingADragon does his best to antagonize the demon]]).
* AlternateAesopInterpretation:
** {{Invoked}} for ''Film/{{Signs}}'', where Karim and Kamel are indentical in everything... except their opinion about the film. Karim thinks the film fails because he forcefully passes plot devices as "divine signals", which can fool the characters but not the viewers. Kamel points out that nothing in the film actually proves that the aliens are hostile, and that the characters who perceive divine signals might just as well be completely wrong; but the viewer is still led into adopting their point of view.
** Mocked in the review for ''Film/MacAndMe''. When Jeremy starts doing the same thing with the aliens from the movie, theorizing they were evil, Karim openly calls it bullshit.
* AlternateUniverse: Different parallel universes are featured, the one Karim lives in being apparently devoid of any of the greatest movies ever produced in the real world.
* AnAesop: Each of Chroma's episode contains one in relation with the movie the episode is about.
* BaitAndSwitch: The seventh review starts with Creator/OrsonWelles telling Karim to review [[Film/CitizenKane a film that revolutionized cinematic techniques, where the titular character dies early on and where we learn what happened through flashbacks recounted by people who knew him.]] Karin proceeds to review ''Film/{{Vidocq}}''.
* BullyingADragon: Karim mocks the tendency of Micah in ''Film/ParanormalActivity'' to deliberately antagonize the supernatural presence in his house in a sketch where Jeremy is playing a threatening demon who is being bullied by Gilles like he's a little kid.
* TheCameo: Several of Karim's friends appear in episode 6, notably the JoueurDuGrenier, whose own episodes Karim is writing.
* CensoredForComedy: The film's countless product placements and Kamel's {{Precision F Strike}}s are censored by a melodica note and a blurring machine in the ''Film/MacAndMe'' review. Of course, by the end the blurring machine breaks and Kamel asks the melodica man to stop it already.
* DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment: Karim always refers to the demon in the ''Film/ParanormalActivity'' review as some variant of "the devilish demon from infernal hell".
* DullSurprise: Discussed in the ''Film/{{Signs}}'' review, which seems to be a contest of who can act the least. Not the worst, just… the least.
-->'''Karim:''' "...Yes? Ah, sorry, it seems Creator/MelGibson has crashed. Can someone reboot him? Quick, he's starting to have flashbacks!"
* EvilTwin: The alternate Jérémy is apparently up to no good.
* FramingDevice: Each episode of Chroma not only focuses on a movie, but also presents an overarching plot in which the greatest movies ever made are [[RetGone disappearing from existence]] and similar movies of far worse quality have become notorious in their place.
* ImNotDoingThatAgain: In the ''Troll 2'' review, he notes that the only way to be scared by the film would be "to watch it on a smartphone, chased by twenty hungry wolves." Before adding "And that's something I'll never do again."
* NamesTheSame: [[invoked]] The ''Film/Troll2'' review starts with a mention of ''Casa 5'', from the same director, and a long and confusing list of films that have similar names and serial numbers without being related to each other. He later notes that ''Film/Troll2'' isn't a sequel to ''Film/{{Troll}}'' either. And then the list continues.
