Go To

  • Acting for Two: Happens quite a bit as a result of everyone being voiced by the same five guys:
    • In the opening scene, both Killer Bean and Cappuccino's nephew are played by Vegas Trip.
    • Cromwell and Vagan share their first scene, and are the only two characters in the film voiced by Bryan Session.
    • In Jet Bean's first scene at the Chinese restaurant, Jet, the restaurant owner, and Chintow the cook are all played by Jeff Lew.
    • All four of the gangsters in the scene in Cappuccino's boardroom are voiced by Jeff Lew.
    • Likewise, all four of the gangsters lounging around in Cappuccino's central warehouse are voiced by Vegas Trip, then Killer Bean bursts in on them.
    • Finally, the cop who flings racist insults at Jet is, like Jet, voiced by Jeff Lew.
  • Actor-Inspired Element: Kessler, voiced by Cr1TiKaL, makes many flowery deadpan remarks similar to what his voice actor is infamous for.
  • Colbert Bump: While the movie has a cult following, it slowly gained an online presence around 2017. Then in 2019, Cr1TiKaL showed attention to it by praising the movie in this video, leading to lots of online exposure and a growing fandom. Said video gained over 1.5 million during the week.
  • Completely Different Title: The film is known in Russia as Ubit' Boba (literally "To Kill the Bean").
  • Development Hell: The movie took 5 years to make.
  • Meme Acknowledgement: Jeff's announcement of the sequel series starts with "The return of Killer Bean? Let me put in a language you can understand: YES!"
  • Sequel Gap: The sequel series would be released in 2020, eleven years after Killer Bean Forever was released in 2009.
  • The Other Darrin: Vegas Trip played Killer Bean in Killer Bean Forever, but creator Jeff Lew plays him in all other animations, including the series.
  • What Could Have Been: Jeff announced that the sequel series would be released in late February 2020, though he later said that it would be delayed to March/April due to still learning the reins to Unreal Engine, and then was finally canceled in favor of the upcoming video game.
