This Is the End / int_143939c1 | comment |
Trailers Always Spoil: The deaths of Jason Segel, Aziz Ansari, Rihanna, David Krumholtz, and Michael Cera are shown in the second Red Band trailer though none of these are major plot points. Jonah Hill getting possessed was shown in later television commercials, and that was a major plot point because it marks the point when things go From Bad to Worse. | |

This Is the End / int_146f8df0 | comment |
Situational Sexuality: Played With and Discussed In-Universe. As they're six guys sharing a house during an apocalypse, Danny suggests making Jay "the house bitch" after his suggestion of gang-raping Emma Watson goes awry. They settle with masturbation to James' stash of magazines and Jay/Seth/Jonah platonic cuddling with one another. | |

God Before Dogma | |
This Is the End / int_1aa52a9a | comment |
God Before Dogma: The film's depiction of God saves everyone who has (or grows) the capacity to love their fellow man, even if they're deliberately making use of this fact to get themselves into Heaven. Any sins they've committed don't matter. But this isn't a free license to consider yourself different from other sinners just because you're saved, as James realizes too late. It's implied that one reason the apocalypse is so drawn out is because God wants to give people like Seth, Jay and Craig as many opportunities to be saved as possible. | |

Adaptation Expansion | |
This Is the End / int_23473ae7 | comment |
Adaptation Expansion: A complicated example; this film is a much larger-scale remake of a short film shot by Rogen and Baruchel titled Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse, screened only once at a film festival (or at a private party, depending on who you ask) and never seen again. The only footage of the original publicly released was in the form of a trailer, leading many to believe it was merely a parody instead of an actual film. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing | |
This Is the End / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Jonah Hill is almost sickeningly polite, particularly to Jay, but later prays to God for Jay to die because he hates him so much. It's also noticeable earlier during the earthquake when he tries to push Jay into the hole as everybody is running. Also later on when Jonah drops very tiny hints of trying to get Jay to die. Like "accidentally" throwing a knife at Jay's leg instead of simply passing it to him. | |

Actor Allusion: Jay Baruchel and Danny McBride end up fooling around with a severed head. That sounds familiar...

They managed to have one scene of Jonah Hill, Michael Cera and Christopher Mintz-Plasse together. Same goes for Baruchel, Hill, and Mintz-Plasse. | |

Black Comedy Rape | |
This Is the End / int_4c851777 | comment |
Black Comedy Rape: The conversation that the group has about Emma Watson. The guys are not talking about raping Emma, but about how they don't want her to feel threatened by the presence of six men staying in a house with her. It devolves into an argument with the guys accusing each other of being the one most likely to rape her. Unfortunately for them, Emma hears only a bit of the conversation and reacts accordingly. Deconstructed when Jonah gets raped by a demon it's played for Black Comedy. But he seems visibly shaken by it. He even skirts around talking about it on the Confession Cam, only mentioning something along the lines of "...something not cool happened last night..." Jonah Hill gets raped and then possessed by a demon. And later, the possessed Jonah threatens to "titty-fuck" Seth. Channing Tatum becomes Danny McBride's "bitch" as part of some sort of fucked-up BDSM fantasy, and he's also forced to wear a dog leash and skimpy leather clothes. | |

Devil, but No God: Despite the film's disaster being The Biblical Rapture, God doesn't seem to make an appearance or get mentioned at all. He's not even shown when the heroes get taken to Heaven. Meanwhile the Devil does appear at the ending. Though considering Heaven is treated as a Personalized Afterlife, it's possible God just felt His being there would cramp these party dudes' style. | |

Heroic Sacrifice | |
This Is the End / int_6439de78 | comment |
Heroic Sacrifice: Performing such a selfless act actually helps prove that the character is worthy to be taken to heaven. Craig Robinson distracts a demon so that the group can escape and is taken to heaven. James Franco distracts a group of cannibals led by Danny so that Jay and Seth can escape. He's about to be taken to heaven like Craig, but mocks Danny over the victory and is left behind to be eaten. Seth chooses to stay and die so that Jay can ascend to heaven, but his sacrifice earns him a ticket as well which destroys Satan. | |

Reckless Gun Usage: James Franco and Jonah Hill both toss around, idly gesture with and generally mishandle what Franco has established is a fully loaded gun. The others are understandably grossly perturbed by this. Subverted in that Franco knew the gun was filled with blanks. Doubly subverted because even blanks can permanently injure or kill you, especially at point blank range. | |

Establishing Character Moment: The father and daughter who get raptured in the convenience store immediately imply themselves to be decent people by the father kindly asking the rude manager if his daughter may use the restroom and the daughter patiently saying she can hold it when they're rebuffed. Danny McBride, who doesn't play a noticeable part in the party scene, has his the next morning, including peeing on the seat, invokedwiping it with a swipe of his boots, and wasting much of the guys' freshly-rationed food making them a lavish breakfast. | |

Humble Pie | |
This Is the End / int_813f4eec | comment |
Humble Pie: Satan can make buildings crumble to dust just by stepping near them, water towers barely reach his tarsals, most trees have a hard time passing his hooves—he's in absolutely no hurry to catch Jay and Seth, two puny humans. He decides to take his time, letting the serpents on his back emerge to feast on them instead. Yet, both his attempts to consume them fail, as they are beamed to heaven just before they can be killed. Seth's beam burns Satan's jaw, leaves a gash along his chest and abdomen, and finally explodes his testicles and slices off his penis (which even takes an entire building down before it hits the ground, simply to show the scope and scale of the damage inflicted). Powerless against the beams, all Satan can do is reach down, grab his swaying, severed penis, clutch his lava-bleeding crotch, and roar in agony. | |

Asshole Victim: While many characters die, a special mention goes to the convenience store clerk. Michael Cera. As Danny put it, "Guess if Michael Cera’s gone, it's not a total loss." Might as well add Jonah Hill as well; how else can you describe someone who actually prays to God for the death of someone else? | |

Crazy Enough to Work | |
This Is the End / int_8f9f71a8 | comment |
Crazy Enough to Work: When Jonah gets possessed, Jay made a makeshift cross out of kitchen tools and started reciting "The power of Christ compels you!" The demon sarcastically mocked him over it while everyone called him out on copying from The Exorcist. But after a while, it actually started working. Even the demon is surprised when it starts working. | |

Laser-Guided Karma | |
This Is the End / int_90e31482 | comment |
Laser-Guided Karma: James Franco and Jonah Hill for committing the sins of Pride and Wrath, respectively. Kevin Hart kicks Aziz Ansari down the sinkhole to his death to avoid falling down it as well, however Ansari's hand comes off in the process due to a cable and gets stuck to Kevin; he ultimately falls down as well trying to shake it off himself. Vast majority of deaths in the film are this really since it is the Apocalypse; whether or not you go to Heaven is based on your moral merit. Commit something bad, you're likely going to die very soon. Like Michael Cera dying immediately after accusing people of stealing his cell phone and acting like a rude douche about it. Or the cashier who forced a little kid to buy something in order to use the bathroom. She was the first to die. | |

Not So Above It All: Jay really didn't like any of the celebrities at Franco's party. But when giving his apocalypse theory, Franco pointed out that he hadn't been Raptured either, meaning he was also an asshole like them. At the climax, he admitted that he was self-righteous and that he didn't like the person he became so he took it out on Seth. | |

Black Dude Dies First | |
This Is the End / int_9788e2b1 | comment |
Black Dude Dies First: Subverted. The scene in which Craig is sent out of the house to get more water plays with expectations of this trope. Everything seems to be going against him: he picks the wrong match, gets sent out alone, everyone seems unconvinced that they'll be able to pull him back in if he's in trouble, the group drop the rope holding him, he can't open the door into the basement, and screams and stares straight behind the camera at what we assume to be a demon no less than three times. Surprisingly, he survives the encounter. In fact, out of the six main characters, Craig is the FIRST person to ascend to Heaven. Also played straight. The first on screen death is the black, female cashier of the convenience store. | |

Foreshadowing | |
This Is the End / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Early on, Seth Rogen describes a potential plot for Pineapple Express 2 that ends with Saul (James Franco's character) sacrificing himself to save Dale (Seth's character) from Red (Danny McBride's character), who proceeds to eat Saul. Guess how James dies? The illustration of Satan in James' Bible — when he shows up for real at the end, he looks just like the drawing. At the beginning Jay and Seth are watching news on TV about a sinkhole in Guatemala foreshadowing the one that opens near James Franco's house. The beers being drunk at the party, as seen below. They have the picture of a demon on them. | |

Artistic License – Religion | |
This Is the End / int_a27c0c2c | comment |
Artistic License – Religion: Barely one word from Jay's reading of "Revelations" is actually from the Bible. A fundamental tenet of Calvinism is that no one can be good enough to earn being saved. No Christian (or Jewish, for that matter) denomination believes that one becomes an angel on entering Heaven. Angels are a different kind of being from humans. The Abrahamic Religions generally agree that substances like Marijuana are sinful, so it's unlikely that they'll be in Heaven. | |

Eye Scream: Described but not shown. In one scene, Craig Robinson confesses that he once gouged a man's eyes out in a bar fight. Then there's what Danny does to James. There's also the chaos after the sinkhole/hellmouth opens in front of Franco's house. Paul Rudd, in the process of fleeing, accidentally tramples Franco's assistant Karen, popping an eye out of her squished head. He follows that up with a pathetic, horrified and hopeless "Sorry!" | |

This Is the End / int_cf92fea8 | comment |
Cassandra Truth: Danny McBride refuses to believe that the apocalypse has happened, thinking instead that the destruction around him is the result of a wild party. It takes a guy getting his head ripped off by a demon to realize they're telling the truth. It turns out Jay was right about Jonah Hill not liking him. | |

Horrible Hollywood | |
This Is the End / int_d55108a1 | comment |
Horrible Hollywood: Literally once the Rapture turns it into hell on earth, but the trope applies even before this; everyone we meet is an awful, entitled, self-obsessed phony. Not a single person at James Franco's party is raptured into Heaven because everybody there is a bad person. | |

Red Herring | |
This Is the End / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: At first, you'd think Jonah Hill's mention of his LBS (Low Blood Sugar) would come into play but it never does. When Hill has a seizure, Seth and James make the assumption that its one of these, but he's actually being possessed by a demon. | |

This Is the End / int_df1cb219 | comment |
Unsportsmanlike Gloating: Happens towards the end when James Franco chooses to sacrifice himself so Seth and Jay could escape from Danny and his band of cannibals, knowing he'll be raptured. And it actually starts to work!... Till he makes the mistake of flipping off and calling Danny's group every vulgar thing in the book, resulting in his rapture being canceled and his death. Then Seth and Jay discuss how a "sore winner" is hard to redeem. | |

Groin Attack: When Seth is pulled to Heaven, the Pillar of Light shears off the devil's penis. Making it even better, the beam of light that saved Seth was the first one and it blasted apart the Devil's jaw making him reel. God wasn't finished muscling in on the Devil and so another beam of light was shot out just to hit the Devil in the crotch. | |

Dwindling Party: First Danny is exiled by the others. Then Jonah winds up getting possessed and later incinerated in the fire that destroys James' house. Craig, sacrificing himself, is Raptured to Heaven. Danny returns as the leader of a group of cannibals, who eat James. Seth and Jay are ultimately Raptured as well for confessing what they did wrong, and reunite with Craig. | |

Redemption Equals Death: Played with; Craig and Seth intend to sacrifice themselves for others, which actually leads to them being raptured. James tries this, but because he made the mistake of cursing out and flipping off Danny and his band of cannibals while being raptured, thus performing the sins of Vanity and Pride in the middle of being raptured, he got his rapture canceled. | |

Brick Joke | |
This Is the End / int_fe0330fb | comment |
Brick Joke: Jonah mentions adopting a dog at the beginning of the party. At the end, the dog shows up in Heaven, with Seth apparently being its new owner. Seth finds Channing Tatum very attractive. Channing is later seen as Danny's gimp. Early on Seth mentions how bullies tittyfucked him as a kid. This is played for laughs several times later on, both with the desperate stranger who says he'll do anything if they let him in, and when Jonah gets possessed and threatens to do just that. In the beginning the guys discuss how dangerous the stairs at Franco's house are as there is no railing. Later, when they're escaping from possessed Jonah, they fall off from the side of the stairs. James Franco talks about how he should die in the proposed Pineapple Express sequel by sacrificing himself for the others and dying in the most horrible way possible. Enter Danny McBride at the end of the movie. | |
