1''Friday Night Funkin': Popcorn Edition'' is a GameMod for ''VideoGame/FridayNightFunkin'' and a RecursiveAdaptation of ''VideoGame/VsDaveAndBambi'', directed by Cotiles of ''Funkin' in a Wimpy Day'' fame. It also takes cues and some characters from ''VideoGame/DaveAndBambiGoldenAppleEdition''.

3After yet another spat with the not-so-intelligent corn farmer Bambi, Boyfriend is teleported to the 3D realm once more by the Stylish Gods, a trio of close friends that seem to have transcended their humanity [[MundaneUtility for shits and giggles]]. Unfortunately, their leader Banjex did this while [[TheStoner higher than a satellite]] and thus unaware of what this actually does to the place. Meanwhile, old conflicts and new acquaintances rear their ugly heads and prepare to drag Boyfriend into the midst of them, for better or worse...

7!!Tropes:
8* AdaptationalContextChange: Bamburai's beef with Boyfriend is described as involving "disruption," in the same way ''Golden Apple'' uses the term. However, while ''Golden Apple'' implies this is just a lie so Dave can rule the 3D realm with an iron fist, ''Popcorn Edition'' suggests that this is instead a very real issue ([[KnightTemplar if one Bamburai is being overly melodramatic about]], given the rest of the mod still has the realm in one piece.)
9* AnimationBump: Compared to other ''Dave and Bambi'' fan mods, all of the mod's characters are animated in 60 FPS, making them appear more lifelike.
10* BlackComedy: Banjex knows Bamburai from the organ black market. This is entirely PlayedForLaughs.
11* DenserAndWackier: Inverted, but not to the extent of DarkerAndEdgier. While the random humor of ''Dave and Bambi'' fan mods remains, only one character (Baxel) fully relies on it to explain his present-day character[[note]]Baxel is bound to the cinema he works in by a botched spell that's been running for ''200 years''[[/note]], and another (Bampal) has it actively exploited to fan the flames of a more serious conflict. [[KnightOfCerebus There's also everything about why Zetrus and Otos hate each others' guts]], which involves the aforementioned exploitation of Bampal's humorous traits.
12* GenderBlenderName: Bamberly's name is a portmanteau of the masculine name Bambi and the feminine name Kimberly.
13* GetAHoldOfYourselfMan: When Bamburai realizes Banjex isn't going to comprehend the fact that Boyfriend's presence is a problem since he's just that high, he draws his katana and ''slices Banjex in half''. As both are {{Physical God}}s, though, Banjex is mostly unharmed.
14* GoodIsDumb: Bampal is described as the moral opposite of Expunged, but Otos is easily able to exploit this by constantly convincing Bampal to let him into his house and take Zetrus' food. This keeps happening even though Zetrus constantly reminds Bampal that Otos should NOT be allowed in.
15* GreenEyedMonster: Otos's justification for hating Zetrus is that he envies something in him, but the specifics aren't given.
16* GruesomeGoat: Downplayed with Baxel, who is explicitly demonic and looks like a goat person, but he is just an average guy who works in a movie theater. What's more gruesome is the fact that he's been stuck there for 200 years because of a botched spell, to the point where he's literally forgotten where his quarters are and just crashes wherever at night.
17* GuestFighter: [[VideoGame/DaveAndBambiGoldenAppleEdition Bandu and Expunged]] return to sing a remix of "Applecore" alongside Bambi himself.
18* KnightOfCerebus: While most depictions of the 3D realm run on InsaneTrollLogic and a DenserAndWackier tone due to its malleability, Zetrus and Otos' rivalry is played completely straight without any humor (except for the fact that Zetrus's roommate Bampal keeps letting Otos into their house to take his food).
19* TheMagicVersusTechnologyWar: The rivalries between Alex and Billy both pit a machine against a purely-supernatural lifeform, with Billy being the machine and Alex being the supernatural lifeform (a demon).
20* MechanicalAbomination: One unnamed character is an unmoving chrome-plated robot with a single cyan eye.
21* OneDegreeOfSeparation: The plot starts because Banjex comes across Boyfriend after realizing they went to the same cinema (owned by a vampire named Baxel) and got the same pair of 3D glasses. Though they've never actually known each other, this gives Boyfriend a tangential connection to all of the non-freeplay characters.
22* OutsideContextProblem: Otos doesn't follow the rules of most Bambisonas: he's a lizard person in his mortal form, is written as a character [[KnightOfCerebus devoid of humor]], and isn't named after Bambi. It's quite possibly the main reason he has Zetrus in a deadlock despite only having a little over a century of experience compared to Zetrus's several millennia.
23* LizardFolk: Otos is a lizard person that superficially resembles [[VideoGame/VsRetrospecter Retro]].
24* ShoutOut: The Stylish Gods live together in a house situated on a hill; the resulting shot of the place deliberately resembles level 94 of [[WebOriginal/TheBackrooms the Wikidot Backrooms]].
25* TheSmurfettePrinciple: Bamberly (prior to the additions of Hashley and Neoshira) was at one point, the only girl in the mod's cast. She was also only one of two female Bambisonas to exist in a mod in the works at the time of her creation, ''period'' (the other being the now-scrapped character Kuri from ''Bambisona Mayhem'').
26* TertiarySexualCharacteristics: Bamberly is identified as the only girl in the Stylish God trio by a blue headband (actually the brim of a tiara) underneath her baseball cap, curled hair, and being drawn with subtle eyelashes.
