** It's okay. He can sleep on that side.

* EveryoneHasStandards: In her ''Film/TheDayAfterTomorrow'' commentary, when learning that the ocean is suffering from rapid desalinization (loss of salt), she suggests desalinizing it...by dumping the world's table salt reserves into the ocean (but, y'know, make it [[BuffySpeak sciencey]]). The response she gets is "Ma'am, that idea is too stupid even for this movie".

* TheElevatorFromIpanema: Happens in ''[[Film/TheAvengers2012 Avengers]] in Fifteen Minutes'', in Black Widow's intro scene, where Agent Coulson is put on hold (and listens to "The Girl from Ipanema") while Black Widow kicks her "interrogators'" butts.

* MrFanservice: In her ''Film/TheDayAfterTomorrow'' commentary, she can't mention Sam without also mentioning how study he is. To be fair, he's being played by a young Creator/JakeGyllenhaal.

!!Tropes pointed out or parodied in ''Movies in 15 Minutes'' or other writings in her LiveJournal:

* ScheduleSlip: Her recap of ''Breaking Dawn Part 2'' is about a year behind schedule at this point. (It's going to be the GrandFinale of a very ambitious work, so one can hardly blame her for taking her time, but the date speaks for itself.) More concretely, there have been ''no'' [=M15M=] updates since July 2012.

* MoneyDearBoy: Cleo mocks two Oscar nominee actresses for being in Eclipse in the Fifteen Minutes of the movie.
* NamesTheSame: She gets upset that ''Twilight'' is the first time she's seen a fictional character with her name (Lauren)...and that character is a raging bitch. "[[SarcasmMode Thanks a lot, SMeyer!]]"

* OneOfUs: Cleo is thrilled to be a TropeNamer.
** Not to mention, ''Film/TheHappening in Fifteen Minutes'' has a PotHole that leads to the {{Anvilicious}} page.

* ActorAllusion: [[Film/SweeneyToddTheDemonBarberOfFleetStreet Snape to Peter Pettigrew, with Bellatrix present]]: "Begone, Wormtail! Go fetch us a meat pie or something."

* {{Retirony}}: King Arthur [[LampshadeHanging lampshades it]] in ''King Arthur in Fifteen Minutes'' ("Awww, dude! Look what you went and did! Now you're totally going to have to die, so we can dispose of your body in that precise manner. It's like, a rule.") and given a CallBack-slash-ActorAllusion in ''ClashOfTheTitans in Fifteen Minutes'' ("But it is not my time to meet her yet. Unless it is, in which case I intend to go down smiling like a badass." "Well now that you've SAID THAT, it is! Didn't you learn anything from Lancelot?")

* EmoTeen:The Phantom is portrayed as this, with a bit of {{Jerkass}} thrown in for good measure.

* HollywoodHomely: Erik's "Sunburn O' Doom" is the subject of much mockery. [[invoked]]

* ScheduleSlip: Her recap of ''Breaking Dawn Part 2'' is about a year behind schedule at this point. (It's going to be the GrandFinale of her MagnumOpus, so one can hardly blame her for taking her time, but the date speaks for itself.) More concretely, there have been ''no'' [=M15M=] updates since July 2012.

** And again with ''TheHappening'', in response to the line "it may be an act of God which we may never fully understand".

** Not to mention, ''TheHappening in Fifteen Minutes'' has a PotHole that leads to the {{Anvilicious}} page.

* SuspiciouslySpecificDenial: "[[TheSilenceOfTheLambs Lecter is giving his final Please Hire Me, I'm Totally Not a Fugitive Cannibal presentation.]]"
