History Film / Hop

* TrainingMontage: E.B. trains Fred into becoming the easter bunny

** The film has a reference to ''Film/AlvinAndTheChipmunks''' infamous "raisin" gag and turns it into something [[IncrediblyLamePun more palatable]].

* NeverTrustATrailer: The trailers for this movie made it look like an ''Film/AlvinAndTheChipmunks'' rip-off (didn't help that both films are directed by Tim Hill).

* AwesomeMomentOfCrowning: E. B. and Fred being crowned co-Easter Bunnies.

* EenieMeenieMinyMoai: Because the rabbits are all from [[IncrediblyLamePun Easter Island]], several moai are seen in the film. They're apparently the secret entrances to the Easter Bunny's whole operation.

* WellDoneSonGuy: E.B.'s father acts this way to the

%%* BadassAdorable: The Pink Berets

%%* DeadpanSnarker: Both Fred and E.B. at times, often to each other.

%% * FunnyAnimal: What, really?

* KillerRabbit: The Pink Berets, they make look cute but they will kick your ass with some of their attacks.
* LargeAndInCharge: Carlos who is the largest chick seen. He gets larger when he goes one-winged angel.

%%* PlayboyBunny: The rabbits mistake them for actual bunnies.
* PoopingFood: He can poop jellybeans and does so to prove he's the Easter bunny.

* TheSlacker: James Marsden's character, Fred, at least according to synopsis.

* TemptingFate: "How could this night get any worse? Oh I see, car accident, thank you."
* TheStinger: A return visit to China.

%% *ToiletHumor: Rabbits crap jellybeans.

%%* TrainingMontage: See above
* UnexplainedAccent: E.B. and his father have (different) British accents, and the villain is Spanish. It's made fairly clear that they all live on the island full time.

%%* WellDoneSonGuy: Both E.B. and Fred

* DeadpanSnarker: Both Fred and E.B. at times, often to each other.
* EarlyInstallmentWeirdness: This was Illumination's second film, at which time they were leaning toward becoming a label for family films in general, not just computer-animated feature films. To date, this has been Illumination's only live-action film and the only film to have no involvement from their in-house, Paris-based animation studio. Perhaps the fact that ''Hop'' is Illumination's most negatively-received and least financially successful film is what leaned them on the path of films that consistently emulated the ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'' style of animation and comedy.
* EasterBunny: However, the Easter Bunny's son doesn't want to inherit the title.

* EenieMeenieMinyMoai: Because the rabbits are all from [[IncrediblyLamePun Easter Island]] we get to see some. They're apparently the secret entrances to the Easter Bunny's whole operation. Some even properly have the pukao.

* FantasticallyIndifferent: Most people's reactions to hearing E.B. talk.

* TheCameo: Russell Brand, who voices EB, pops up as a production assistant on "Hoff Knows Talent", talking to the character he voices.

* {{Handwave}}: In one scene E.B. explains that he can talk because of a simple mixture of magic and cuteness.

* SpiritualSuccessor: To ''Film/AlvinAndTheChipmunks''. It helps that they have the same director, Tim Hill.

* [[ColorCharacter Color Characters]]: The Pink Berets are a trio of elite female bunnies wearing...pink berets.

* PlayboyBunny: The rabbits mistake them for actual bunnies.

* TrainingMontage: See above

* WellDoneSonGuy: Both E.B. and Fred

* FakingTheDead: When the pink berets catch up to E.B., he dresses a frozen turkey in his shirt and [[FatalAttraction throws it]] [[ShoutOut in a pot]] to fake his death, [[NiceJobBreakingItHero accidentally framing Fred for his murder in the process]].

* OneWingedAngel: Carlos undergoes a transformation into a chick/bunny hybrid when the Egg of Destiny scepter bestows its powers upon him. Unfortunately it also increases his size and strength right before E.B. has to take him on.

* ShoutOut: The film has a reference to ''Film/AlvinAndTheChipmunks''' infamous "raisin" gag and turns it into something [[IncrediblyLamePun more palatable]].

* HoorayForHollywood: E.B. describes Hollywood as "Where dreams come true."

''Hop'' is a 2011 {{Creator/Universal}} live-action/CG film focusing on the exploits of E.B. (Creator/RussellBrand), a young rabbit who is next in line to become the world famous Easter Bunny of legend. His father (Creator/HughLaurie) can't wait to provide him with the title, but E.B. tends to sway more to the young, hip side of the Bunny family tree, and doesn't want to follow in his father's footsteps, instead wanting to make it big in the world of rock.

He leaves for Hollywood in order to realize his dream, and happens upon Fred (Creator/JamesMarsden), a kindred slacker who is house-sitting a mansion. After being nearly run over by Fred's car, he reluctantly takes in E.B., who wastes no time in causing him as much grief as possible. Soon however, Fred and E.B. learn that they have to contend with Carlos (Creator/HankAzaria), one of the Easter Bunny chick assistants who decides that it's time for them to take over the holiday due to their doing all the work.

* LargeAndInCharge: Carlos who is the largest chick seen. He gets larger when he goes one winged angel.

** The earliest trailer featured nothing more than the protagonist playing the drums, with absolutely no indication what the film was about.

* GettingCrapPastTheRadar: E.B. and later the Pink Berets show up at the Playboy mansion, mistaking "playboy bunnies" for actual bunnies.
-->'''EB:''' She single?\\
'''Fred:''' .Yes, she is single and she is looking for a rabbit.
** Fred's sister tells him to "Shower, Shave and ... Show up on time. You know, the three Shushes." Also sounding like a curse word.
** When Carlos pulls his coup d'etat on the Easter Bunny:
-->'''Easter Bunny''': Carlos, you were my most trusted number two for years.
-->'''Carlos''': Well, guess what! I am sick of doing ''number two''! It is our time for number one, yeah? We the bosses now!

* PlayboyBunny: Referenced. See GettingCrapPastTheRadar above.

* TheCameo: Russell Brand, who voices EB, pops up as a production assistant on "Hoff Knows Talent", [[TalkingToHimself talking to the character he voices]].

** [[{{FridgeHorror}} Or not.]]

** Fred's sister tells him to "Shower, Shave and ... Show up on time. You know, the three Shushes."

* NoBigDeal: A talking rabbit? Fred sure seems freaked out by it... but then it turns out he's the only one.

* TheyWouldCutYouUp: Fred thinks this will happen to E.B. if he's spotted talking in public. See NoBigDeal above for what actually happens.
