TheMovie of ''WesternAnimation/AquaTeenHungerForce'', released in 2007. It is the first and, to date, only movie based on an Creator/AdultSwim series (and, if one wants to get technical, the second movie based on a Creator/CartoonNetwork series, after 2002's ''WesternAnimation/ThePowerpuffGirlsMovie'').

The movie sees Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad fighting off an ancient exercise machine known as The Insanoflex, as well as delving into the origins of the titular squad. [[WidgetSeries Lots of weird stuff happens in-between]].

!!The movie provides examples of:
* AnimationBump: Averted for most of the movie, but [[spoiler:the fight between Frylock and Dr. Weird at the end plays it straight.]] The promotional material spoofed this by advertising "[[MundaneMadeAwesome three all new backgrounds]]."
* ArtShift: The opening credits are animated in sketchy hand-drawn animation.
* BigBad: Dr. Weird.
* BigDamnMovie
* BleepDammit: A weird case where the film's f-bombs are both uncensored ''and'' use bleep sounds. One noticeable example is when Carl tries out the Insanoflex. You can clearly hear him say "fuck", followed by a slightly delayed bleep.
* TheCameo:
** [[WesternAnimation/SpaceGhostCoastToCoast Space Ghost]] makes a brief appearance.
** Willie Nelson, Balloonenstein, and [=BillyWitchDoctor.com=] make blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameos in the background.
* ChekhovsSkill: [[spoiler:"I AM A MASTER OF DISGUISE!"]]
* ColonCancer: The colon is ''actually spelled out''. The movie's soundtrack album adds "Colon the Soundtrack" to the end.
* DeathByCameo: [[WesternAnimation/SpaceGhostCoastToCoast Space Ghost]] appears only to get blown up by a missile.
* DeathByOriginStory: Chicken Bittle was created alongside the Aqua Teens, but dies during Frylock's flashback.
* DisneyDeath: [[spoiler:Shake out of nowhere shoots Meatwad dead. He's revived by Neil Peart using the Drum Solo of Life.]]
* DreadfulMusician: Master Shake's performance of "Nude Love" is bad enough [[spoiler:to drive the Insanoflex to [[DrivenToSuicide kill itself]].]]
* DrivenToSuicide:
** [[spoiler:The Insanoflex destroys itself after listening to Shake perform "Nude Love".]]
** [[spoiler:Shake jumps out the window at the end of the movie.]]
* ForWantOfANail: The CIA shooting Time Lincoln results in the slaves taking over the plantation.
* GainaxEnding: [[spoiler:After Frylock defeats Dr. Weird, whom the Aqua Teens believe to be their creator, Weird claims it was ''Frylock'' who created ''him''. Then the Mooninites show up claiming ''they'' created all of them, followed by Walter Melon saying he created them and the Insanoflex, and planned for Weird and Frylock to kill each other so he could inherit their real estate and build an Insano-Gym franchise. Then a 9-layer bean burrito appears claiming to be their mother. Shake, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere clearly having had enough of this nonsense]], proceeds to [[DrivenToSuicide jump out the window]]. The end.]]
* IAteWhat: Err gives Ignignokt a "drink" consisting of old mayonnaise he found in the trash that had hair on it.
* IWarnedYou: Averted.
-->'''Cybernetic Ghost:''' I told you [the missing part] mustn't be installed!
-->'''Frylock:''' No you didn't!
-->'''Cybernetic Ghost:''' I didn't?
-->'''Frylock:''' No, you didn't!
-->''{{Beat}}''
-->'''Cybernetic Ghost:''' I meant to!
* KudzuPlot: Parodied. The plot is extremely complicated, involving the revelation of how the Aqua Teens came into being, the fate of Chicken Bittle, what the hell Dr. Weird's deal is, the secret conspiracy of the Insanoflex, and [[spoiler:whether Frylock is a lesbian in a man's body in the body of a box of fries]], but by the end, none of the characters care anymore.
* LogoJoke: The First Look Pictures and Williams Street logos appear with ominous sounding music, both fade out. A few seconds later the same music and background fade in with "Presents" written in the middle, then fades out as well. A few seconds later the same thing happens with "This Movie" written on it, which [[RunningGagged gets yanked off after a split second]].
* MadeOfIron:
** Carl survives having nearly every muscle in his body removed with a large hunting knife.
** Dr. Weird survives shotgun-style blasts to the chest from Frylock and being literally cut in half a short time later. He seemed rather nonchalant about the whole affair.
* MasterOfDisguise: The Plutonians and the Cybernetic Ghost disguise themselves as the Aqua Teens to try and find the missing part of the Insanoflex. [[spoiler:Dr. Weird also pulls it off a few times.]]
* MindScrew: The entire film.
* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: It's brief, but [[spoiler:Shake seems genuinely aghast that he killed Meatwad.]]
* MythologyGag: The opening of the film is basically what happens during the show's end credits.
* NoTalkingOrPhonesWarning: Performed by Music/{{Mastodon}}.
* OriginsEpisode: Played with. The movie begins with Shake telling Meatwad that they escaped from the pyramids of Egypt with the help of Time Lincoln, but as Frylock points out, "none of that shit ever happened and you know it!". Later, Frylock gives the ''real'' origin story [[spoiler:that they were created by Dr. Weird to fly into a brick wall.]] But by the end of the movie [[spoiler:there's so many conflicting accounts as to who truly created who that it's difficult to tell if any of it was real.]]
* PersecutionFlip: As a result of Time Lincoln's murder, the black slaves take over the plantation and start whipping the white CIA agents.
* ThePowerOfRock: [[spoiler:Neil Peart's Drum Solo of Life.]]
* ProductPlacement: Parodied when Time Lincoln suggests they escape with the new Beetle convertible.
* RandomEventsPlot: '''And how!''' The movie swings from one nonsensical plot point to the next as breakneck speed. At times, it seems to be actively trying ''not'' to make sense.
* TheReveal: [[spoiler:Frylock is a lesbian trapped in a man's body as a box of fries.]]
* SdrawkcabSpeech: The "ancient Egyptian" language that the characters speak at the beginning is [[AsLongAsItSoundsForeign just English played backwards]].
* ShoutOut
** "It's A Groovy Time For a Movie Time" spoofs the classic movie theater bumper "Let's All Go To The Lobby."
** ''WesternAnimation/TwelveOunceMouse'' is playing on [[WesternAnimation/SpaceGhostCoastToCoast Space Ghost]]'s TV, Also a small clip of a another adult swim show ''WesternAnimation/PerfectHairForever'' episode "Tusk", is playing on the Aqua Teen's Television when Meatwad has Master Shake's Broken Teeth.
* SkewedPriorities: With the exception of [[OnlySaneMan Frylock]], almost nobody has their priorities in order. In particular, [[spoiler:after the looming threat of the mini-Insanoflexes becomes apparent,]] all Master Shake cares about is getting laid.
* TheStinger: [[spoiler:The Cybernetic Ghost humps the Aqua Teen's couch, followed by Frylock, now fully a woman, telling him to come to bed.]]
* StonerFlick
* TimeTravel: Employed by Time Lincoln. Later in the movie, the heroes travel back in time to Oglethorpe's college years to stop him from creating the Insanoflex. [[ShaggyDogStory It doesn't work, mainly because he didn't actually create it.]]
* [[TitleTheAdaptation Title Colon The Adaptation]]: Parodied.
* ToTheBatnoun: "To the new Beetle convertible!"
* TrailerSpoof: The film's trailer goes so far as to identify itself as ''Film/SpiderMan2'' in the text crawl while the narrator reads the correct name.
* TranslationConvention: Parodied. The film opens with the Aqua Teens speaking what's supposed to sound like ancient Egyptian with subtitles (they're actually [[SdrawkcabSpeech speaking English with the audio played backwards]]) before Meatwad, in plain English, asks if they can just talk normally.
* UnreliableNarrator: Frylock is incredulous about Master Shake's account of the team's origins.
-->''"None of that shit ever happened and you know it!"''
* VoluntaryShapeshifting: Meatwad reveals he can shapeshift into a large building as well as an igloo and hot dog. He just never did because no one asked.
* WaxingLyrical: [[Music/PhilCollins "I can feel it coming in the air tonight... I've been waiting for this moment all my life."]]
* {{Wipe}}: Lampshaded. ''"Staaaaaaaaaaarrrr....wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiipe..."''
* YourPrincessIsInAnotherCastle: [[spoiler:After it looks as though the Insanoflex has been defeated, there are hundreds of "eggs" housing smaller Insanoflexes that are set to hatch any minute.]]
