Death to Smoochy: Difference between revisions

Line 29:

* [[Depraved Bisexual]]: Randolph, maybe (see [[Foe Yay]], below).

* [[Depraved Kids' Show Host]]: The movie '''''breathes''''' this trope.

* [[Evil Cannot Comprehend Good]]: Much of why Randolph is obsessed with Smoochy/Sheldon is because he doesn't believe him to be the genuine [[Nice Guy]] and tries to prove it otherwise. {{Spoiler|However when it seems legit, he does end up trying to save him from Buggy Ding Dong.}}

* [[Getting Crap Past the Radar]]: In-universe example. During Rainbow's opening song -- "Some like to toss, while others to catch" and "One might say grab while the other says snatch."

** "Golly gee, size doesn't matter when you want some friendly patter."

* [[Granola Girl]]: Sheldon is the [[Spear Counterpart]]. He's vegetarian, loves to strum his acoustic guitar, dresses simply even after coming into money, and loves to preach about healthy living.

* [[Heel Face Turn]]: {{spoiler|Rainbow Randolph. He's still crazy, though.}}

* [[Hope Spot]] / [[Ignored Epiphany]]: Randolph is framed for Spinner's murder, he finds himself hiding in an abandoned building. Here he realizes that he should give Smoochy a chance, believing that an intervention from a former fan of his during his suicide attempt, is a sign from god that he should just move on and admit Smoochy's the better man. However after seeing an ad for the Ice Show which specifically shows Smoochy with Nora, he's back to his Anti-Smoochy ways vowing to tear him apart with his bare hands.

* [[The Irish Mob]]: Played for laughs.

* [[Large Ham]]: [[Robin Williams]], natch.

Line 59:

Line 61:

* [[Subverted Kids Show]]

* [[Watch Out for That Tree]]: Rainbow Randolph's victory dance after framing Smoochy as a Nazi is cut short by a wall.

* [[Villainous Breakdown]]: Randolph's story is a major one from beginning to end, but the most prominent is when he confronts Sheldon and Nora at gunpoint. Sheldon tries to calm things down, Nora doesn't take the hold up seriously and even berates and threatens him. However a combination of {{spoiler| finding out Sheldon is with Nora whom he previously had an affair with, along with seeing the drastic changes of what used to be his penthouse and Sheldon trying to keep the peace causes him to break into a song. When he finishes he is too down on himself to realize he lowered his gun. With Nora's help, Sheldon manages to disarm him causing the latter to beg him to [[Mercy Kill|kill him.]] Instead, Sheldon offers to help him through his troubles, which causes Randolph to meekly ask if he could be his friend. Which Sheldon accepts.}}
