The asdfmovies are a series of short, rapid-fire, surreal YouTube web cartoons produced by TomSka, partially adapting strips from asdfcomics, his Web Comic. The skits are short, as are the movies overall, and the humour is random, but amusing in its own, strange way. If you can keep up. Or are similarly insane.

The Videos (Works in the Series in Bold):

The short skits mean that knowing what's in them will spoil the (what can loosely be called) gags very easily, so we recommend you watch the movies before reading the trope list. It won't take long.

Tropes used in Asdfmovie include:

"I was just about to say that!
"We are so in sync!"

  • Amusing Injuries
  • And Now for Something Completely Different: "And now, Ducks."
  • Animate Inanimate Object: While it's never shown to move, the chair in the fourth movie can talk. It is female, by the way.
    • Also the evil tie and parking meter from the first movie.
  • Anthropomorphic Food: The potato.
    • There's also a cake in the first episode, who a guy cuts, but is unaware that the cake is alive. The cake then dies from its wounds and falls off the table.
  • Anti Humour: The Pointless Button scene.
  • Apocalypse How: A deleted scene has a guy spilling a glass of milk. Somehow, the average-sized glass was able to hold enough milk to drown everyone.
  • April Fools' Day: The twenty minute movie was made and released two days before this day.
  • Ax Crazy: People fire off guns, attack each other and summon random large objects with complete abandon.
  • Bait and Switch: A guy is asked to hold a live bomb. The guy who gave him the bomb comes back a few seconds later and takes it back. No explosion, next skit. Look closely and you'll notice the fuse gets longer at the end.
    • "This is a robbery." *dramatic sting and close-up* *hangs up and walks away*. Next skit.
    • "WARNING POINTLESS BUTTON" is pointless.
  • Big No: "No, llama, NOOOOOO!"

  • The Blank: Asdfmovie 4: "Well, I stole your face!"

    • In the fourth movie: the newspaper headline says the potato died.
