Lil Formers/YMMV
- Complaining About Shows You Don't Watch: Partially averted; Matt did watch the first Transformers film, and an episode of Animated.
- Although played straight with the film, he made practically all his strips about it before he watched it.
- Also played straight with Tekken, whose characters he called nobodies because of his unfamiliarity with said franchise.
- Fan Dumb
- Never Live It Down: Bumblebee "peeing" on Simmons seems to be the one movie scene Matt remembers prominently...
- Nostalgia Filter: Occurs in many strips, particularly for G1 or Beast Wars. Any of the mistakes there are usually given a slap on the wrist, while more recent series have their problems pointed out with greater emphasis.
- Tainted by the Preview
- They Changed It, Now It Sucks: A lot of the strips have shades of this, see Author Tract.
