Easter Eggs

"Dislike Smoke"

• Decompiling the Flash file reveals a hidden message upon trying to remove the silhouettes. This teaser's message reads "dislike smoke".

Fun Facts

Trivia

• This is the only teaser to have the text above the characters instead of under them.

Remarks

• The characters are in an order different from the one they have been in all previous trailers.

Goofs

• The Loading text can be highlighted.

Inside References

• As per usual, Strong Bad's costume is over-the-top.
• Homestar Runner compliments others' costumes in song throughout the teaser.
• The hidden message "Dislike smoke" is a reference to Dodongo from The Legend of Zelda (see Real-World References below); Hence it is also a reference to the chair, in which decompiling the Flash file to try to view the supposed picture of Strong Bad's parents instead reveals the message "nice try dodongo!".

Real-World References

• Strong Bad's costume, and the entire teaser visual, is a reference to the Graboids in the movie Tremors.
  • In the previous teasers, the moon is in the top-right corner. Starting with this teaser, however, to more closely match the movie poster for Tremors, it is larger and behind the characters.
• The hidden message "dislike smoke" references the original The Legend of Zelda game, when an old man tells the player that "DODONGO DISLIKES SMOKE."
