* [[A God Am I|The Devil Am I]]: {{spoiler|Brad}} (temporarily) become [[The Devil]].
{{quote| '''The Devil:''' "They call me Satan, the devil, Baalzeebul, but my real name... IS STEVE!"}}
* [[All Planets Are Earthlike]]: Averted and Parodied, the planets shown are either Inhabited, Conveniently Unhabitable (Radioactive surface, {{spoiler|[[Truth Serums|Truth Gas Atmosphere]]}}, Too small for the human population, etc.) or otherwise, [[Planet of Hats|just plain weird]].
* [[Alternative Continuity]]: The movies are set in a different continuity than that of the main series. Differences between the two continuity include the design of the ship, the Captain having a sister on Earth, Petrolia ending up with Flavien instead of Bob, etc.
Line 49:
*** [[Hopeless Boss Fight]]: Olaf, if you don't know how to handle a sword in real life. And even then...
*** [[Large Ham]]: Olaf again.
{{quote| '''Olaf:''' "If you want to save him, you have to beat the ten challenges. I AM THE TENTH CHALLENGE!!!"}}
*** [[Moon Logic Puzzle]]: Even the Captain lampshades it.
{{quote| '''Captain (reading Flavien's notes):''' "After [[Trial and Error Gameplay|45 tries]] (to solve a riddle), I found out that there is a trick. Just put your right leg parallel to the ground, your left hand pointed to the sky, your head down, your right hand under your armpit... Come on! This is ridiculous!"<br />
'''Captain (reading again):''' "[[The Tape Knew You Would Say That|No, it's not that ridiculous. Just do it and shut up.]]" }}
*** [[Nausea Fuel]]: The 8th challenge, according to Serge (a rope bridge over a chasm).
{{quote| '''Serge:''' "That game's completely crazy! Lucky I don't have a digestive system or I would've emptied it."}}
*** [[Nintendo Hard]]: Apparently, no one has ever beaten it.
** Early in the series, Bob makes a mention of playing [[Video Game Long Runners|Mario 39.]] According to him, [[Super Mario 64|it's an old one.]]
Line 65:
** {{spoiler|The final episode has the crew finding their goal of a perfect planet to move humanity and sends a signal back home. When the first ships get there... they just start a whole NEW war and force the crew to leave in a hurry, determined to find another perfect planet to leave behind the population of massive idiots.}}
* [[I Have Many Names]]:
{{quote| '''The Devil:''' "I am Satan! Lucifer!! Belzebub!! The demon!!! But my real name is... [[Some Call Me... Tim|Steve.]]"}}
* [[Insignia Rip Off Ritual]]: When Brad was finally demoted after nearly killing the captain. Took about 3 times to finally get all of Brad's hidden insignias off.
* [[Jerkass]]: Dear lord, Brad Spitfire. He's not just a self-serving conniving bastard who will sell out everyone faster than he can yell "Please kill HIM first!" but is immensely ''proud of that fact'', stating that this is the essential survival trait that has made the Spitfire family thrive and succeed. When he recovers his memory after alien [[Phlebotinum]] gives everyone [[Easy Amnesia]], the first he does is try to be ''sure'' he's back to normal:
{{quote| '''Brad:''' "Okay, think back. You're ten years old and it's Christmas morning. You're on the porch with grandpa and the snowblower is coming... What do you say... ''Five bucks or your wheelchair ends up on the snow pile!'' (proudly) YES! I'M A DIRTY BASTARD!!!"}}
* [[Lampshade Hanging]]: When the Captain asks Pétrolia why she hasn't finished fixing up Serge yet, she replies that she never has the time to do anything because something always happens, "it's like being in an adventure tv series".
* [[Large Ham]]: Patenaude, especially considering his [[William Shatner|"template"]].
** Brad is an even bigger ham. [[Evil Is Hammy]] indeed.
{{quote| '''Brad:''' "If you don't (let me go) I blow up the ship's hull with [[Chewing the Scenery|EXPLOOOOOOSIVE CHAAARGES]]!"<br />
And that's only the first episode. }}
* [[Metaphorgotten]]: Patenaude has ''a lot'' of trouble getting his metaphors and proverbs right.
Line 94:
* [[Used Future]]: The ship look like its made out of recycled junk... and probably IS! As of the second movie, it is also possible that its simply getting old. Considering all the damage it took during the course of the show, it makes sense.
** The ship was revealed to be built by Spitfire Industries, and thus built on the cheap by cutting every possible corner. Truly a hallmark of Spitfire Industries if there was one, it's a wonder if even made it off the Earth to begin with.
{{quote| It's garanteed to last three years. And after three years? It's garanteed to break! }}
* [[Weirdness Magnet]]: The ship. This is Lampshaded.
* {{spoiler|[[Write Back to the Future]]: Failed epicly in the second movie via Youtube.}}
