Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })A....VERY strange Norwegian animated film from 2015 about two silly, but musically gifted friends named Tootson and Ludiwood (Knutsen & Ludvigsen in the original Norwegian), and their badger roommate Badgero, who live in a tunnel. The film describes their meeting with a pretty woman named Amanda, and the adventure they embark on to help save her scientist father from the diminutive but dangerous Rasputin and his henchmen, who want to... you guessed it... Take Over the World. Tootson and Ludiwood aren't exactly what you'd call traditional heroes, though, and so the rescue mission quickly turns out to be more of a series of goofy shenanigans.2020 saw an even stranger sequel, Two Buddies and a Badger 2 — The Great Big Beast, in which Tootson and Ludiwood (and Badgero) have to deal not only with the fact that a mysterious, big and potentially dangerous beast has taken up living in their tunnel, but they also face the threat of being evicted from that tunnel when a strange female conductor shows up and tells them the government has decreed living in tunnels is illegal. In desperation, they set out to look for Tootson's grandfather, an old retired pirate named Captain Tootson, to ask for his help. What follows is a series of absurd and surreal adventures that takes them to such diverse places as the North Pole and Fluffy Cloud Heaven.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })The universe of the movies is based on the caricatures of Øystein Dolmen and Gustav Lorentzen, a real-life duo of children's songwriters and comedians who got their start in the 1970s, and who over the next couple of decades released seven music albums, starred in a couple of radio dramas for children, been in sketch shows and books and featured in a stage play (which was later made into a live-action movie which disappointingly enough did not feature Dolmen and Lorentzen as the titular characters). The duo were popular enough in Norway to be awarded two Spellemannprisen — the Norwegian equivalent of a Grammy — and several of their songs are known to pretty much all Norwegians.In recent years they've gained something of a Cult Classic following, which spawned these movies, which could best be described as Ren & Stimpy-very Lite, mixed in with some catchy tunes.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_3'); })Trailer for the first movie can be seen here. Trailer for the second movie can be seen here. | |

Bloodless Carnage | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_135b9977 | comment |
Bloodless Carnage: One of Rasputin's Henchmen gets their weird nose ripped off by Badgero after they capture him by mistake, which is almost lampshaded by the fact that he shows more annoyance at being inconvenienced after recovering it. | |

Not-So-Harmless Villain | |

Not-So-Harmless Villain: Rasputin, He's constantly falling over, screeching like a child, and has a...weird bit of performing armpit farts when he's excited, however , once he demonstrates the kid of control his zombie serum will have on its victims by forcing a sentient mind-controlled rat to kill himself with a trap, the movie doesn't necessarily lose its humor, but for the rest of the time the heroes begin to take the whole deal much more seriously. | |

Multiple Endings | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_1aa08f77 | comment |
Multiple Endings: Parodied. Right in the middle of the climax the movie stops in order for Ludiwood to break the fourth wall and tell the viewer that from here there are three endings to choose from: One good ending, one bad ending and one plausible ending. In the good ending, everyone gets married, in the bad ending The Bad Guy Wins, and in the plausible ending this movie never makes back its budget because people download it illegally instead of paying for seeing it. At this point Tootson has had enough and starts up the movie again to play the real ending, while Ludiwood protests that this is an extremely plausible ending. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: To a bigger degree than the first movie, which just kind of took place in a vague time period. Here we get a lot more mixing and matching of various time periods, played for laughs and surrealism. For example, mobile phones with cameras exist, but they're rotary phones and the cameras attached are polaroids. That's not to mention the heavy involvement of pirates in the plot despite the movie taking place long after The Golden Age of Piracy. | |

Wholesome Crossdresser | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_28f852ea | comment |
Wholesome Crossdresser: Tootson crossdresses in two scenes, though both are imaginary. In the opening scene he wears a dress and pretends to be a famous female singer, though it turns out he's just dreaming. In the Multiple Endings parody, in the Weddings for Everyone "good ending" Tootson and Ludiwood are shown getting married, with Tootson wearing the bride's dress, but this is just a joke. | |

| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_33e78383 | comment |
A Pirate 400 Years Too Late: Captain Tootson, who's a classic type pirate with a saber and a peg leg and everything, in a movie that takes place in what's at least approximately the modern day. Of course, with a movie as surreal as this he doesn't really feel terribly out of place. | |

Gentle Giant | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_36c64123 | comment |
Gentle Giant: The Great Big Beast is huge (so huge, in fact, that we never get a full-body shot of it), but far less fierce than Tootson and Ludiwood think. It's in fact not fierce at all; just sweet and helpful but with a slight tendency to play The Gadfly towards Badgero. | |

G-Rated Drug | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_3aa2ac42 | comment |
G-Rated Drug: At one point, Tootson and Ludiwood eat some 40 year old liqourice, and afterwards act like they're totally stoned; complete with hallucinations and a Disney Acid Sequence where they sing a song about a dog and a cow which barely makes sense in context. (Interestingly enough, the part about the licorice is cut from the English dub of the movie.. but the song isn't, meaning it comes totally out of left field with no explanation.) | |

Characterization Marches On: Badgero is far less stoic and more lively in this movie. He's also become far more of a Hypercompetent Sidekick, and has picked up some Evil-Detecting Dog traits, as he can instantly sniff out when people have ill intentions. | |

Adaptational Nice Guy | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_82a64c4b | comment |
Adaptational Nice Guy: The Conductor — kind of, and after a rather long and complicated character history. In the original radio drama and the initial albums, the Conductor was portrayed as a friend of Tootson and Ludiwood, who chanced to meet them after falling off the train, and afterwards came by the tunnel for the occasional visit. However, for the stage musical which this movie loosely adapts, he underwent Adaptational Villainy and became a False Friend and The Mole (though also a bit of a Punch-Clock Villain who was Just Following Orders). In this movie, the Gender Flipped Conductor has lost the False Friend vibes and is openly on the side of the bad guy, but turns out to have quite a bit of sympathy for Tootson and Ludiwood and is really working against them because her older sister is bullying her into it. At the end of the movie she doesn't quite undergo a Heel–Face Turn, but she does get enough of her sister's bullying at the very end and pulls a Screw This, I'm Outta Here, upon which her role in the movie is essentially over. | |

Art Shift: In some parts of the movie the visuals briefly change. In the "Great Big Beast" song, we get a Disney Acid Sequence where a 3D-animated Tootson and Ludiwood interact with 2D-animated backgrounds and surroundings. When Tootson is chased by a polar bear at the North Pole, the visuals briefly take on the look of a 2D Platform Game, complete with video game sound effects. In one sequence, Tootson, Ludiwood and Captain Tootson are teleported through several animation styles, and complain about how cheap it looks. | |

Adaptation Dye-Job: The Great Big Beast. In the original radio dramas from the 1970s, Ludiwood described it as being red. When the Beast appeared on the covers of the music albums, it was coloured green. In this movie, Ludiwood still describes it as red, but it's really more a crimson pink. | |

Mood Dissonance | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_a7f4710f | comment |
Mood Dissonance: The "Great Big Beast" song is built on this trope. The song is about how scared Tootson and Ludiwood are of the Great Big Beast and how they're sure it's going to eat them both... but the tune is bouncy and cheerful, and Tootson and Ludiwood are clearly having great fun singing it, not looking scared of anything. | |

Casanova Wannabe: Ludiwood tries so very hard to be charming and suave towards the ladies in general and Amanda in particular. It doesn't work. | |

Lost in Translation | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_b7920c43 | comment |
Lost in Translation: The joke of Bergen being depicted as an eternally-gloomy city with non-stop rain and citizens that only speak in harsh, guttural sounds... is probably not that funny to anyone outside Norway. | |

Cloudcuckoolander: Both Tootson and Ludiwood qualify. Though Ludiwood thinks he's the Only Sane Man, largely because he's slightly more with it than Tootson. | |

Hypercompetent Sidekick: Let's face it. If it hadn't been for Badgero in this movie, Tootson and Ludiwood wouldn't have lasted twenty minutes. | |

Lighter and Softer | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_ce6555f0 | comment |
Lighter and Softer: Compared to the first film. The stakes are lower, the villain is less deranged, and Tootson and Ludiwood take the entire thing even less seriously than they did the first time around. The movie is, however, much, much Denser and Wackier, and given how absurd the first movie was that's saying something. | |

Adaptational Wimp | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_d500b978 | comment |
Adaptational Wimp: Kind of, with Captain Tootson. Elsewhere in the franchise it's usually at least hinted that he's a bit of a Small Name, Big Ego and that at least some of his tall tales of his youth are made up, but when things get tough he generally stands his ground and sees things through. Here, he outright admits that all his tall tales were made up and that he's really a bit of a wimp and a coward. Leads to a bit of a Broken Pedestal for Tootson, but he redeems himself during the climax. | |

Vitriolic Best Buds | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_d7fc9fd0 | comment |
Vitriolic Best Buds: This has been the dynamic between Tootson and Ludiwood since their very first appearances on the Norwegian Children's Hour program in 1970. They bicker and argue almost constantly, they prank and tease each other and drive each other insane... but they're also the best of buddies and completely inseparable. | |

Fluffy Cloud Heaven | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_e132a621 | comment |
Fluffy Cloud Heaven: Tootson and Ludiwood visit Heaven and it's pretty much a bunch of naked people sitting on clouds and sigh about how disapponting the food is while naked baby angels sing about how packed lunches aren't any fun. Oh, and it's forbidden to talk loudly. | |

Manchild | |
| Two Buddies and a Badger / int_e150c4c7 | comment |
Manchild: Tootson and Ludiwood are at least nominally adults, but they are severely lacking in any kind of maturity. Tootson is the more blatantly childish of the two, but though Ludiwood thinks he's suave and mature, he really isn't that much better. | |
