Bio-Dome/YMMV


Bud and Doyle: (singing) Iron Man, Iron Man, does whatever an iron can!
Faulkner: That's Spider-Man. Black Sabbath did Iron Man.
Bud: What, you think you're some kind of rocket scientist or something?
Faulkner: Yes.

  • Crowning Music of Awesome: Dude. Everyone likes The Safety Dance. Its inclusion in this movie is one of the three good things about the movie.
  • Designated Hero: We're meant to see Bud and Doyle as the good guys, despite the fact that they spend the movie beating the shit out of themselves, acting ridiculously obnoxious and practically destroying the dome, and the majority of the stuff the scientists put all that hard work into developing. And let's not forget their unprovoked groping of the female scientists in their sleep.
  • Designated Villain: Faulkner is the villain... for trying to stop Bud and Doyle from ruining the experiment.
    • He may have been a little less villainous if his idea of a solution to Bud and Doyle being there wasn't "throw them in the utility closet and maybe we'll try and remember to feed them eventually." Of course, this is Bud and Doyle we're talking about here...
  • Fridge Logic: The two slackers had only been in the dome a few minutes. It wouldn't have damaged any year long scientific studies to boot them out and reset a few minutes.
  • Hilarity Ensues ...allegedly.
  • Idiot Plot: The entire film is built on this trope.
  • Moral Event Horizon: Faulkner supposedly crosses this either when he abandons Bud and Doyle in the desert part of the dome to die or when he tries to destroy the dome with the people inside. Bud and Doyle cross this when they commit sexual assault on two of the female scientists.
  • Rooting for the Empire / Straw Man Has a Point: Faulkner. In spades. His only crime seems to be being a Jerkass towards the two doofuses - but even that is perfectly explainable. Would anyone else act differently?
    • Well, you know, and trying to kill everyone in the Bio-Dome because he got pissed off. But no, clearly he just needed a hug.
  • The Scrappy: Bud and Doyle
  • Unintentionally Sympathetic: You actually feel sorry for Faulkner and see why he went Ax Crazy when you think about how much obnoxious assholes Bud and Doyle were.
