Added DiffLines:
* SymbolicDistance: Parodied while being PlayedForLaughs. As a parody of ''Film/MrAndMrsSmith2005'', Julia and Grant are in a counseling session where the two of them are being interviewed about their relationship. At one point while they're both sitting in separate chairs, Julia mentions that there's a "huge space" between them. Cut to their chairs suddenly being literally spread far apart from each other.

Added DiffLines:
* ComicallyOversizedButt: The character "Jello" is a parody of Creator/JenniferLopez, giving her a butt so large that it knocks over furniture and makes it impossible for her to sit in a normal chair.

''Date Movie'' is a 2006 movie by Creator/SeltzerAndFriedberg that parodies the RomanticComedy genre. It's the their third movie, and the second one made by them on their own. Though the movie was panned by critics, it made 3 times its budget, thus kickstarting the duo's series of low-budget parody movies.

Hartman Hips is an animation trope. It's technically impossible in live-action.

* HartmanHips: Jello has the widest hips in the movie and a butt to match. Since this is a parody movie, it's bound to happen.

* InformedFlaw: The main character is "389 pounds, smokes a thousand cigarettes a day, and drinks like Tara Reid". While the first one is quite visible (and gets quickly removed via magic liposuction), she is never shown smoking or binge drinking. At all. Maybe an unmentioned rehab session happened some time during the liposuction?

* DVDCommentary: Two film critics who did not like the movie were hired to do commentary. Highlights include pin-pointing exactly where movies like ''Film/{{Airplane}}'' succeeded while ''Date Movie'' failed. The directors themselves did a commentary for one of their films that started out informative, but quickly turned into a tongue-in-cheek bullshitting contest.

!!Tropes:
* AshesToCrashes: The urn containing the ashes of the female lead's grandmother dropping and smashing during a disastrous dinner date and a mummified corpse of the grandma then falls out of the broken urn.
* BalconyWooingScene: Parodied with the boom-box apology, being followed by getting pelted with rocks and several objects.

* FootPopping: Julia pops her foot while kissing Grant, and Grant pops his foot also -- the wrong way.
* GenderBlenderName: Julia gets quite a shock when Grant's "best man" Andy turns out to be an extremely attractive woman.
* HartmanHips: Jello has the widest hips in the movie and a butt to match. Since this is a parody movie, it's bound to happen.

Maybe an unmentioned rehab session happened some time during the liposuction?
* OverlyLongGag: A scene involving a hand-puppet cat squirming on a toilet bowl lasts several minutes.
* ParentsSuckAtMatchmaking: Exaggerated for parody. The protagonist Julia is seeking love and eventually finds it with the kind (and wealthy) Grant Fockyerdoder. Unfortunately, her dad will only let her date someone of her ethnicity and thus she is only allowed to be with someone who is a Greek-Black-Indian-Japanese-Jewish person. While this is apparently more common-place than this sounds, he tries pairing her up with their handyman Nicky, who is portrayed as an unattractive slob who crassly rejects her over her appearance, only to later objectify her after she gets "[[SheCleansUpNicely pimped up]]."
* SexySurfacingShot: Julia meets Grant's ex Andy emerging from the pool in SlowMotion in a gold bikini while "[[Music/PussycatDolls Don't Cha]]" plays in the background and immediately feels self-conscious.
