Line 4:
A very corny movie rated NC-17 by the MPAA, one of many causes of Parker & Stone's long battle regarding censorship, the movie is only extreme in that it has a lot of dildo on-screen - indeed, the sex scenes in this movie are much less extreme than what appear in many PG-13-rated movies, and are largely played for laughs.

{{tropelist}}
=== Tropes related to the movie: ===
* [[Affectionate Parody]]: Of both pornographic and superhero movies.
* [[And This Is For]]: {{spoiler|After shooting Orbison with the Orgazmorator several times, backing him up to the pool, Choda Boy figures he's had enough. Joe hesitates, then decides "one more for Jesus".}}
Line 10:
* [[Catch Phrase]]: "Now. I don't wanna sound like a queer or nuthin.' but -" It's the face he makes after that really makes this a catch phrase.
* [[Chained to a Bed]]:
** {{spoiler|Lisa, Joe's devout Mormon fiancee,}} by Maxxx Orbison, [[Crosses the Line Twice|and on the set of a porno, too]].
** One scene that Joe acts in as Orgazmo involves him getting [[Chained to a Bed]] as a [[Distressed Dude in Distress]] who has to be saved from the Ass-Fuck Twins by Choda Boy.
* [[Chekhov's Skill]]: {{spoiler|Hamster Style Kung Fu}}
* [[Clark Kenting]]: No one is ever fooled by the main characters' superhero costumes.
* [[Crosses the Line Twice]]: A devout Mormon missionary gets a job playing a superhero in porno films to raise money for his wedding to his almost painfully-wholesome fiancée. Despite some very obvious signs that [[God]] doesn't want him having anything to do with porn. Along the way, he ends up becoming a crime fighter in an in-universe version of [[Defictionalization]], and defeats his enemies by shooting them with a ray gun that forces them to orgasm on the spot. Not to mention that the movies become so popular that there's a line of toys made based on them. And we see a ''young child'' playing with one of them.
* [[Crouching Moron, Hidden Badass]]: Joe Young's skills at hand-to-hand combat are why he gets his job.
* [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]]: Maxxx Orbison decides to kidnap {{spoiler|Lisa, Joe's fiancee,}} to ensure that Joe continues to play the part of Orgazmo. [[Save the Princess|Guess what Joe and Ben decide to do?]]
* [[Dangerous Forbidden Technique]]: Played with regarding Ben's hamster style Kung-Fu. When he first talks about it, he speaks in a tone that implies he did something in that style that forced him to give up on it. However the flashback reveals that as a kid, he simply just stated to his father that he wasn't gonna do it anymore. Which the father replied with an uncaring "That's nice." while reading his newspaper and eating toast. However it was enough to send Ben into a permanent depression over it. When he eventually uses the style, it's played straight as it makes him fast and rabid. Ranging from [[Rapid-Fire Fisticuffs]], to [[Man Bites Man]] to [[Battle Discretion Shot]] that leaves A-Cup in tattered clothes and teeth/claw marks all over him.
* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]: "The Ass-Fuck Twins" <ref> [[Averted Trope]]</ref>
* [[Fan Disservice]]: Despite all the talk about porn in this movie, there are no actual sex scenes and the naked male ass is seen more often than any other R-rated piece of anatomy. And then there's [[Fat Bastard|T-Rex.]]
* [[Give Me a Sign]]: Joe asks a figure of Jesus for a sign that he shouldn't act in a porn movie. An earthquake happens. Joe looks around for a moment, then asks again for any sort of sign.
* [[Gosh Dang It to Heck]]:
** Joe Young and his fiancee Lisa, being devout Mormons, stand out by virtue of their abstinence from swearing.
{{quote| '''Joe Young''': Would you just stop hollerin' at me? Criminy!}}
** Then there's the guys trying to muscle G-Fresh into signing over his business:
{{quote| '''Jimmy:''' Curses!<br />
'''Tommy:''' ''Curses?'' }}
* [[Hair-Trigger Temper]]: Orbison, oh so much.
* [[Have I Mentioned I Am Heterosexual Today?]]: Naturally, after prefacing his comments with "I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin'...", everything that Dave the Lighting Guy says becomes increasingly homoerotic.
{{quote| '''Dave the Lighting Guy''': I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin', but you got a really nice ass<br />
'''Joe Young''': Thanks...<br />
'''Dave the Lighting Guy''': ''(Smacks Joe's ass)'' }}
* [[Hey, It's That Guy!|Hey It's That Cast]]: Something like better than half of the cast of the movie are porn actors in [[Real Life]].
Line 44 ⟶ 45:
* [[One Steve Limit]]: "There are many Jeffs in the world, and many Toms as well. But I... am Sancho."
* [[Precision F-Strike]]: Joe has one in reaction to {{spoiler|Lisa's kidnapping}}
{{quote| '''Joe''': I'm [[Precision F-Strike|pissed off]]!}}
* [[Running Gag]]:
** "I don't wanna sound like a queer or nothin'..."
** '''''STUNT COCK!'''''
** "Jesus!" "[[Literal -Minded|Where?]]"
* [[Save the Princess]]: See [[Distressed Damsel in Distress]] above
* [[Sequel Hook]]
* [[Shout-Out]]: A couple to Dickens' ''[[A Christmas Carol]]'' and some others to Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman
{{quote| '''Lisa''': I don't know what's happened to you, Joe, but... [[Shout-Out|I hope you're happy in the life you've chosen]].<br />
'''Joe''': [[Lampshade Hanging|"Don't quote Dickens in]] ''[[Lampshade Hanging|my]]'' [[Lampshade Hanging|apartment!"]] }}
* [[Show Within a Show]]: In-universe, it becomes so incredibly popular it gains mainstream appeal and children's toys are made based on the characters.
* [[Shown Their Work]]: A lot of in-jokes from the porn industry show up. For example, porn people apparently eat a lot of Pop Tarts.
* [[Spandex, Latex, or Leather]]: In the [[Film Within a Film]], they wear spandex. In their genuine superhero personas, it's latex.
