History Film / StuckOnYou

* BrainlessBeauty: Walt's girlfriend April. A notable example where Walt tries to do a crossword puzzle (not realizing that Bob helps him with them), and can't figure out a 3-letter word for "man's best friend" (they have a pet dog). April guessed "tit", Walt already tried that word.

* NeverTrustATrailer: The trailers and other promotional material made it look like Dumb and Dumber as conjoined twins. In reality the movie is nothing like that at all and this may have been a reason for its failure at the box office.

* ShownTheirWork: In typical Farrelly brothers fashion they show people with a disability, or at least unique circumstances depending on whether or not being conjoined twins could be considered a disability, as capable individuals with lives just as relatable as anyone else’s. They also emphasize that even though Bob and Walt make a great team they are very much two different individuals. Rocket is also properly portrayed as just another one of the guys.

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Upon Meeting Bob and Walt April is talking about life for would be actors then very casually points out that they’re stuck together. Then just goes on talking about Hollywood. It also serves as a Character Establishing Moment since it clearly shows she’s such a good person that something so odd to others means nothing to her.

* WrittenInInfirmity: Invoked and parodied with Walt wanting to be an actor while his brother has stage fright, which given that they're conjoined twins, presents quite a problem. The film then shows executives trying to work around this, first by incorporating him into the environment, then by putting him in a ChromaKey suit.

* BittersweetEnding: [[spoiler: After the surgery, the brothers each try to do their own thing, but it's difficult. Not just getting used to not being attached to other, but also feeling lonely. But in the end, Walt is performing creatively and successfully in the local plays; Bob and May Fong get married and expecting a child, and enjoy their quiet life; and the brothers use a velcro strap to simulate their former conjoinment while maintaining their restaurant.]]

* CutawayGag: The time the twins try to audition for a Doublemint Gum commercial, but didn't get the part because the people fear viewers would think the gum causes birth-defects.

* ChainedHeat: While not a straight example of this trope, this film features conjoined twins; [[spoiler: they separate later on in the movie, and neither brother can function nearly as well, as they are used to compensating for the other's weight/movements]].

ConjoinedTwins Bob (Damon) and Walt (Kinnear) try to live as normally as possible. Outgoing and sociable Walt aspires to be a Hollywood actor, however, whereas shy, introverted Bob prefers the quiet life. After Walt gets a role in a local play (which gives Bob all kinds of trouble to stay as much as possible in the background) and the play is a success, Walt decides to follow his dream to Hollywood and persuades his hesitant brother to go along for the ride, which soon proves to provide both conflict and humorous situations.

* ConjoinedTwins: Bob and Walt are this, though notably, they're ''non-identical'' conjoined twins, a medical impossibility (or at least, there is no recorded case)[[note]]This is because twins form when a fertilized egg divides into two separate fertilized eggs instead of staying as a single growing embryo. Conjoined twins is a result of this division not fully taking place. Non-identical twins come from two eggs being fertilized, and both developing normally[[/note]].

* AdamWesting: Music/{{Cher}} plays herself as [[WhiteDwarfStarlet a has-been]] that the public doesn't care about.

* ShowWithinAShow: ''Honey and the Beaze'' is a prime-time TV show that makes Walt famous.

** Music/{{Cher}} appears upset after she ends up having to star in a ShowWithinAShow called ''Honey and the Beaze''. She wants out of the deal, so she decides to hire Walt as her co-star (since her contract states she can choose anyone she wants), certain the show will get cancelled. The producers, realizing Cher's scheme, foil it by going forward with the production, compensating for Bob's presence by keeping him out of the camera frame and employing bluescreen effects.
