"I baked you a pie!" |
The asdfmovies are a series of short, rapid-fire, surreal YouTube web cartoons produced by TomSka, partially adapting strips from asdfcomics, his Web Comic. The skits are short, as are the movies overall, and the humour is random, but amusing in its own, strange way. If you can keep up. Or are similarly insane.

- Mineturtle (May 23, 2012): An extended version of a theme that was going to be used for the fifth movie's intro. The song is available on Bandcamp and on iTunes.
The short skits mean that knowing what's in them will spoil the (what can loosely be called) gags very easily, so we recommend you watch the movies before reading the trope list. It won't take long.
- Actually, I Am Him: "I am your sandwich."
- All Women Love Shoes: Even when they are chairs, women love shoes.
- Ambiguously Gay: The ducks in the fifth movie.
"I was just about to say that! |
- Amusing Injuries
- Bloody Hilarious, especially when a character gets shot in the face. Almost everything is in black and white, even flames, but blood is made red anyway.
- And Now for Something Completely Different: "And now, Ducks."
- Animate Inanimate Object: While it's never shown to move, the chair in the fourth movie can talk. It is female, by the way.
- Also the evil tie and parking meter from the first movie.
- Anthropomorphic Food: The potato.
- There's also a cake in the first episode, who a guy cuts, but is unaware that the cake is alive. The cake then dies from its wounds and falls off the table.
- Anti Humour: The Pointless Button scene.
- Apocalypse How: A deleted scene has a guy spilling a glass of milk. Somehow, the average-sized glass was able to hold enough milk to drown everyone.
- April Fools' Day: The twenty minute movie was made and released two days before this day.
- Ax Crazy: People fire off guns, attack each other and summon random large objects with complete abandon.
- Bait and Switch: A guy is asked to hold a live bomb. The guy who gave him the bomb comes back a few seconds later and takes it back. No explosion, next skit. Look closely and you'll notice the fuse gets longer at the end.
- "This is a robbery." *dramatic sting and close-up* *hangs up and walks away*. Next skit.
- "WARNING POINTLESS BUTTON" is pointless.
- Big No: "No, llama, NOOOOOO!"
- "Die Potato!" "Nooooooooooooo!"
- "Billy, nooo!!!"
- "I AM PUNCHING YOUR SALAD!" "NOOOOOOOOO-"
- "Oh, NOOOOO--" is quite apropriate just before punching yourself in the face because it's Opposite Day.
- Be Careful What You Wish For: From number four, both the boy who wants to be a pie and the girl who wants to go to the moon.
- And the time-traveler, who gets stepped on by a "Stegosaurus" upon arrival.
- The Blank: Asdfmovie 4: "Well, I stole your face!"
- Breakout Character: Following his debut in the second movie, the "I Like Trains" kid was apparently liked enough to show up in the third movie as well as in Lil Deuce Deuce's music video and star in the "I Like Trains" music video.
- Brick Joke: "I like trains."
- In the fourth movie: the newspaper headline says the potato died.
- In the third movie, a guy named Joey climbs into a friend's mouth. In the fourth movie, he crawls out.
- In the second movie, a driving llama falls off a cliff. In the fifth movie, it lands on someone.
- Blessed with Suck: Tree powers, activate!
- Boom! Headshot!: "Hey guys, check out my new camera! Oh, wait, this isn't a camera."
- "QUICK! Shoot me in the face!"
- "BANANA FIGHT!!" "NO!"
- The Cameo: Spamcat from Bing and Spamcat and TFL: Late (bing and spamcat 2) appears in the Ritalin'd movie.
- The Character Died with Him: Edd Gould, the voice of the "I Like Trains" kid, passed away after losing a long battle with leukemia.
- Which means the "I Like Trains" kid got run over.
- Character Level: *punches a random guy in the face* LEVEL UP!
- Cloudcuckooland: All of the characters are absolutely insane.
- Comedic Sociopathy
- Cool Shades: The potato in the second movie, as well as the "I Like Trains" kid in the I Like Trains song.
- Creepy Child: The "I Like Trains" kid.
- Like Father, Like Son: His dad is creepy too.
- Cuteness Overload: "I'm allergic to adorableness!"
- Department of Redundancy Department: "POINTLESS BUTTON: Warning, pointless"
- Depth Deception: In asdfmovie 4, that kid trying to grab a ball thrown at him isn't standing far away. He's just really small. And gets squished under the ball.
- Disproportionate Retribution: "Now, son, don't touch that cactus!" *kid levitates and attaches himself to the cactus* "YOU'RE DEAD TO ME."
- "Honey, why is the baby on fire?" "BUY ME MORE JEWELRY!"
- "BANANA FIGHT!" (gunshot) "NO!"
- "Do you know who's gay? You." (stabbed in the chest) "Aw, come on!"
- "Do you know who's gay? Y-- *Hit by a train*
- "Nice hat." "Thanks!" "I was being sarcastic." "Well, I stole your face!" *Man grabs his face to find out it is indeed gone*
- Inverted: "ALIEN ATTACK!!!" "Throw the CHEEEEEESE!!!!!"
- "Hey, it says 'Gullible' on the ceiling." "...Oh, so it doe-- Aww, ye stole my lungs."
- "Got your nose!" *Door kicked down* "LOOK OUT!!! HES GOT A NOSE!!!!" *Bangbangbangbangbang*
- Dissonant Serenity

- Driven to Suicide: "Goodbye, world."
- Genius Loci: "Okay Jim, I'll see you around. Where you go-OH, OH NO! Aw, that's not what I thought he meant by that at all!"
- The cake in the first one throws himself off of the table in front of his 2 little cupcakes.
- "Quick, shoot me in the face!" *headshot*
- Dull Surprise: Two guys standing around. One guy peels off his skin/disguise to reveal... an appearance looking just like his former one.
Other guy: "Oh." |
- A guy walks off a ledge only to fall upward...
Guy: Oh, okay. |
- Yet another guy wonders whether his pony can fly. It can.
Guy: Huh. |
- Edible Ammunition: "THROW THE CHEEESSSE!!!'" it doesn't work.
- Everything's Better With Dinosa-*stomped* "I AM A STEG-O-SAURUS~"

- Finger Gun: This is how the kid in the fourth movie mugs the mugger.
- Flying Saucer: Which gets cheese thrown at it.
- Freeze-Frame Bonus:
- In the trailer for the fifth movie, Tom's dog's dog tag briefly shows the face of the "I Like Trains" kid before switching to "TOM'S DOG"
- In the third movie's skit with the bomb, the fuse goes back to its original height for a single frame at the end, though this is most likely just a Blooper (as it doesn't seem to happen in the Newgrounds version).
- French Jerk: He won't run out of muffins. He works at the muffin factory.
- Genius Loci: The Earth is asdfmovie3, and the Moon in asdfmovie5.

- "They said I could never teach a llama to drive!"-- Christopher "Bing" Bingham
- The man in the fourth movie announces the robbery is YouTube vlogger and creepy guy Jack "Jacksfilms" Douglas. Perhaps not as known, and it'a a little hard to hear, but still, hey, where did he come from?
- Also in the fourth movie, the robber who gets held up by a finger gun and the guy holding the finger gun are voiced by Awesome Series creator Egoraptor.

- Improbable Weapon User: THROW THE CHEEEEEEEESE!
- Impossible Thief: "I stole your face!"
- "Aww, ye stole my lungs."
- Infant Immortality: "Honey, why is the baby on fire?"
- It Only Works Once: Throwing cheese at a Flying Saucer causes an explosion in the twenty minute movie but has no noticeable effect in the fourth movie.
- Literal Genie: The twenty minute movie provides a meta-example, as rather than being 20 minutes long, it was made in 20 minutes.

- Schmuck Bait: The "Pointless Button". It does absolutely nothing.
- Double Subversion: There WAS the word "Gullible" on the ceiling, but the guy looking gets his lungs stolen.
- Anyone who steps on the Mine Turtle gets a face full of boom. The last guy is Genre Savvy enough not to step on it... and is crushed by the llama car from asdfmovie2.

- "I like trains."
- "Piano!" *Piano Drop* "Whose idea was this?!"

- Surreal Humor: Tons.
- Take a Third Option:
Drill Sergeant Nasty: "What are you, a man, or a mouse!?" |

- The Last of These Is Not Like the Others:
Girl: I like singing! |
- There Was a Door: The Trains from the "I Like Trains" kid. Justified because, well, they're trains.
- Taken to ridiculous extremes in the "I Like Trains" music video, where at points, the trains come out of a wedding cake, go several times through the windows of churches, vertically through the ceiling to get rid of a bad date, and through space.
