History WebVideo / DoomDay

%%* SpritePolygonMix: More like ''[[UpToEleven Sprite Real Life Mix]]''.

* AnnouncerChatter: Provides roughly ninety percent of the spoken dialogue.
* AxCrazy: Once they get their hands on it, Tennie and Hertog Jan enjoy the [[TropeNamers original]] {{BFG}} [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill a bit too much]].

* GenreSavvy: [[SarcasmMode Sure, Doom characters, invade the same town where two fans of the game live.]] It takes a while, but the protagonists' skills at Doom turn into a pretty high level of Genre Savviness soon enough... [[WrongGenreSavvy until they run out of ammo, that is]].
* HowDoIShotWeb: It takes a while before the duo gets a hang on the whole "Real Life Doom" thing.
* IdiotBall: Um... Tennie? HJ? There are other weapons aside from the BFG in your inventory, you know. ''[[EpicFail You were browsing through them less than a minute ago.]]''

[[WhatIf What if...]] ''{{VideoGame/Doom}}'' [[CrackFic invaded]] RealLife? Now ''[[OhCrap that]]'''d be a problem. Unless the ones facing the [[RefugeeFromTVLand refugees from Doom land]] were two Doom fans.

Enter Tennie and Hertog Jan, whose boring afternoon was interrupted by a SpaceMarine game of CaptureTheFlag!

This is the premise behind '''''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QicPvlFuAZw Doom Day]]'''''. HilarityEnsues.

For Doom fans, this fan-made short film is a must-see.

* AcceptableBreaksFromReality: We can say that this short predated ''Film/ScottPilgrimVsTheWorld'' in terms of "video game-style fights in real life". For starters, the duo's speech is shown through Doom-style chat.

* AxCrazy: Let's just say that, once they get their hands on it, Tennie and Hertog Jan enjoy the [[TropeNamers original]] {{BFG}} [[ThereIsNoKillLikeOverkill a bit too much]].
* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: After the Red Team starts hunting down HJ, there's a Space Marine trying to catch up with his comrades, only to ''randomly explode.''

* [[spoiler: {{Bolivian Army|Ending}} DownerEnding]]: PlayedForLaughs.

* FailedASpotCheck[=/=]UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Hertog Jan. Seriously, how can you ''not'' notice noisy Doom enemies roaming down the street, ''[[EpicFail outside of your window]]?''
* GenreSavvy: [[SarcasmMode Sure, Doom characters, invade the same town where two fans of the game live.]] It takes a while, but the protagonists' skills at Doom turn into a pretty high level of Genre Savviness soon enough.
** WrongGenreSavvy: ... until they run out of ammo, that is.

* NoHoldsBarredBeatdown: Tennie got the crap beaten out of him... ''[[ButtMonkey twice]].''
* PaintingTheMedium: Let's just say the Doom interface is just the tip of the iceberg.

* PrecisionFStrike: [[AC: [[OhCrap "Fuck no ammo :c"]]]]

* ReferenceOverdosed: Towards the Doom franchise.
* TheScapegoat: Hertog Jan. To clarify, when he escapes with the Red Flag, Tennie just sits on a bench, [[BystanderSyndrome shrugs it off]], and [[GivingSomeoneThePointerFinger points at his friend]] when an entire ''army'' of Red Space Marines starts chasing him down.
* SpaceMarine: Comes with [[{{VideoGame/Doom}} the territory]], but as a twist, due to the protagonists being Tennie and HJ, the marines take a villainous role this time.
* SpritePolygonMix: More like ''[[UpToEleven Sprite Real Life Mix]]''.
* ThisLoserIsYou: The AnnouncerChatter's remark about HJ and Tennie [[spoiler: getting "killed" by the Red Team]].

* VitriolicBestBuds: As their fictional selves within the short film at least, HJ and Tennie are ''heavily'' implied to be this.
* [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse What Happened to the Doom Monsters, Anyway?]]: The answer? ''[[FridgeHorror They're still out there.]]''

This is the premise behind '''''[[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QicPvlFuAZw Doom Day]]''''' - and, needless to say, HilarityEnsues.
