Strong Bad's Cool Game for Attractive People: Difference between revisions

'''Strong Bad''': Not Marzipan! (softly) Though that's a pretty good one. Gotta remember that. }}

* [[All Just a Dream]]: {{spoiler|After defeating Trodgor in "8-Bit is Enough", Strong Bad wakes up to find out it was apparently just a dream... except even though Free Country USA is back to normal, [[Here We Go Again|Trogdor is still on the rampage]].}}

* [[And Your Reward Is Clothes]]: If you complete everything in an episode, your reward is a shirt for your wardrobe.

* [[Anticlimax]]: Surprisingly enough, brilliantly subverted in SBCG4AP's ''Strong Badia the Free''. {{spoiler|The siege of the Of Town's castle lasts five minutes and takes place off-camera. And then it turns out that being King of Town is the lousiest job in the world. The ''real'' challenge turns out to be Strong Bad ''directing the Of Town's coup against him''.}}

* [[Awesomeness Meter]]

* [[Colon Cancer]]: ''Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People: Episode 4: Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective''.

* [[Cruelty Is the Only Option]]: It's a game based around [[Jerkass|Strong Bad]]; what do you expect?

* [[The Dog Was the Mastermind]]: {{spoiler|"Craig" (The Cheat)}} in "Dangeresque 3".

* [[Dummied Out]]: Some costumes from later episodes are programmed into earlier episodes, along with an Ab-Abber 2000 "shirt."

* [[DVD Bonus Content]]: The Extended Play for "Dangeresque 3" is done in the style of this.

** Strong Bad also does this at the very beginning of "Dangeresque 3", which had been in development for a long time (originally intended to be released in June 2004, according to the Strong Bad Email: "[http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail80.html stunt double]").

{{quote|'''Strong Bad:''' (typing on his laptop computer) "Dear all the annoying morons that have been bugging me about it [http://www.homestarrunner.com/sbemail106.html for four and a half years...] Yes, I finally finished Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective, so you can all EAT IT!"}}

* [[They Just Didn't Care]]: In-universe, "Dangeresque 3" was hit by this in a few parts (see [[Throw It In]]).

** However, an unintentional(?) example is when Coach Z/Renaldo is declaring that Dangeresque's father has died, {{spoiler|Senor Cartgage, his actor, is clearly seen}} '' {{spoiler|walking off set}}''.

* [[Throw It In]]: In-universe. Marzipan insists on having her potted plant Credenza onscreen in "Dangeresque 3", over Strong Bad's objections. He does end up finding a use for it later though. The movie also includes some very obvious errors that should have been edited out but weren't, though this is more likely because of [[They Just Didn't Care|laziness]] or incompetence on the part of The Cheat, who was in charge of editing and post-production. On top of it all, the errors can be ''collected'' for [[100% Completion]].

* [[Title Drop]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] in "Strong Badia the Free".

'''Homestar''': Hey, that's the name of this--

'''Strong Bad''': Shut up. }}

* [[Trapped in TV Land]]: Strong Bad enters the world of Videlectrix games in "8-Bit Is Enough".

* [[Villain Protagonist]]: Strong Bad straddles the line between this and [[Anti-Hero]].

* [[Villain Song]]: "Handle My Style".

* [[We Could Have Avoided All This]]: The twist at the end of "Baddest of the Bands" reveals that the Funmachine wasn't broken (said fact being a driving force for the plot), but rather {{spoiler|a "crusty wad of jalapeno cheese spray" was wedged in the cartridge slot}}.

* [[A Worldwide Punomenon]]: "Where am I supposed to get fan service around here?"

* [[You Killed My Father]]: In "Dangeresque 3", Homestar as Uzi Bazooka kills Senor Cardgage as Dadgeresque. When that happens, an anguished Strong Bad as Dangeresque confronts Homestar/Uzi, brandishing his nunchuck gun, and says...
