Line 25 ⟶ 23:
* [[Informed Ability]]: How great and popular the movie supposedly is. Then again, we are seeing it from [[Unreliable Narrator|Ted]]'s point of view.

* [[Show Within a Show]]: Exists only [[In-Universe]] for ''[[How I Met Your Mother]]
* [[Stylistic Suck]]: Not that this stops it from becoming hugely popular in-universe, to the point where one is forced to conclude that Ted is the only character with any taste at all.

{{quote| ''"Groundbreaking"<br />
"Utterly original"<br />
"Not...formulaic...in ANY way"<br />
"THANK GOD this isn't based on a TRUE STORY because man, Chris Kattan's character JED MOSELY is SUCH a DOUCHEBAG"'' }}
* [[Take That]]: The entire film is a big, fat [[Take That]] at poor <s>Jed</s> Ted.
* [[Trope Overdosed]]: It's a [[Show Within a Show|Movie Within]] [[How I Met Your Mother|A Show]] [[Real Trailer, Fake Movie|that only had a trailer made]], and it has it'sits own page!
* [[The Woobie]]: "Stella" in the movie.
* [[Zero-Percent0% Approval Rating]]: At the wedding, ''everybody'' (even ''the priest'') urges Stella to dump Jed for Tony.
