Title: A Dark Night
Release date: July 20, 2012
Chris, Ian, Snowball, Archie, and Michael go to the movie theater to catch the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises.
Tropes:
- Foreshadowing: A guy named Bruce who complains about the gang forcing him out of his seat tries to calm himself down before he gets too angry and tells Newbie that making him mad isn't recommended. He's revealed to be Bruce Banner when he goes Hulk on Newbie.
- Group Costume Fail: Chris and Ian prepare for the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises by dressing as Batman and Robin. Snowball comes also dressed as Batman when he was supposed to be dressed as the Joker since he already has white skin, and Archie comes also dressed as Robin, though Chris gives him a pass because he thinks it's cute. Michael, however, comes dressed as Waldo (minus the glasses) because he couldn't find any Batman costumes.
- Movie-Theater Episode: The episode is about Chris, Ian, Snowball, Archie, and Michael catching the premiere of The Dark Knight Rises.
- Shout-Out:
- The episode involves watching The Dark Knight Rises, so there are people dressed in Batman-related costumes.
- Some of the movies listed outside the theater include Ice Era: Comedic Drift, Ziggy Stardust, and Fred.
- Michael doesn't have a Batman costume, so he wears a Waldo costume (minus the glasses) instead.
- When Michael says the movie is going to be the most awesome one of the year, Snowball brings up The Avengers (2012), which they agree will probably be just as good if not better.
- When the gang is presented with a pre-movie trivia slide depicting a silhouette of a "lovable robot icon", Chris's guess is R2-D2, Ian's is WALL•E, and Michael's is Johnny Five.
- The guy the gang forces out of his seat turns out to be Bruce Banner when he Hulks out on Newbie after not being able to see the manager.
