Erotic Asphyxiation: In a discussion about apparent BDSM themes in the Star Wars films, it was assumed that Vader used his choking powers because of this trope. | |

| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_21af4dc3 | comment |
Heroic Dog: Truman on occasion, most notable when he once saved Cami from a rampaging pet monkey... by flying a little biplane like in King Kong (1933). | |

Ghost Ship | |
| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_2dc35926 | comment |
Ghost Ship: Invoked when Jared and Tom went to see Ghost Ship. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a movie version of The Love Boat instead. Featuring a guest appearance by actress and singer Charo. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: One strip revolves around Tom telling Cami that they should finally do what the comics title say and go "theater hopping" (sneaking into more movies than you paid for). They run afoul of Victor and get put into the theaters holding cell. | |

With This Ring | |
| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_5353bf39 | comment |
With This Ring: One storyline reveals that Jimmy and Charlie were once engaged, until she caught him kissing another woman in the movie theater. The whole thing was Not What It Looks Like, but a combination of Jimmy's past womanizing, and Charlie's own doubts about getting married so young led to her flushing the ring down the toilet. To this day Jimmy, who took a job at the theater to remind himself of Charlie, cant bring himself to clean the womens bathroom. | |

| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_60200c6 | comment |
Former Teen Rebel: The nerdy theater clerk Jimmy turns out to have been one of these when he was a teenager. In fact, he had inadvertenly been ripping off The Wild One without having ever seen the movie. | |

Chew Toy/The Rival: Ben Affleck was this, being the object of irrational hate and attacks by Jared until Gone Baby Gone came out, and then he switched to Shia LaBeouf. | |

Didn't Think This Through | |
| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_8d0785d5 | comment |
Didn't Think This Through: Tom builds an Iron Man armor out of cardboard for the premiere of the 2008 movie (despite having been given a realistic promotional one by Marvel earlier; he apparently sold that one to pay for movie merchandise). To simulate Iron Man's repulsor blasters, he stuffs the arms full of old sparklers... and the costume promptly catches fire. | |

| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_94274db1 | comment |
Life Embellished: While the comics cast is real and interact like in the comic (Tom and Cami are married, Tom is best friends with Jared, Tom and Cami own a beagle named Truman), the more fantastic and comedic elements obviously arent real. | |

Felony Misdemeanor | |
| Theater Hopper (Webcomic) / int_c59cfa2e | comment |
Felony Misdemeanor: The Nerd Police busted Tom twice so far, first for "Failing to recognize The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", and again for "Spoilers While Tweeting". The first time cost him his "nerd license", preventing him from talking about movies online. He won it back by getting a huge Star Wars tattoo on his back. | |

Chick Flick: This is Cami Brazelton's favorite kind of movie, both in the comic and in real-life, much to Comic Tom's frustration. Her favorite actress of all time is Julia Roberts. The comic specifically compares it to Tom's love of comic book movies, showing them as a female escapist fantasy just like superheroes are male escapist fantasies. | |
