* AnAesop:
** Everyone has their own opinions on everything, and those opinions should be respected.
** Don't be afraid to try things outside your comfort zone. Buster, who rarely reviews things besides generic action movies, actually enjoys a [[LeFilmArtistique subtitled foreign film]] once he watches it by random chance.



* ShoutOut: One movie Brain likes is ''Film/TheRulesOfTheGame'', which he refers to by its French title. Everything he describes about it is accurate as well.

* BothSidesHaveAPoint: Both Brain and Buster do have valid points against each other. Buster blindly [[FourPointScale rates every movie a "10+" out of 10]] and only sees movies that are clear pablum. Brain, however, is a CausticCritic who mainly reviews a genre he doesn't even like in the first place and starts [[AdHominem attacking Buster]] in his later reviews. It's also implied that Brain is less media literate than Buster, since Buster, who was more invested in the movie, ''is'' able to address the supposed {{plot hole}}s that Brain brings up.
* FourPointScale: Buster rates every movie he watches (all being action movies full of robots and explosions) a 10+/10. However, he does consider demoting a movie to just 10/10 because it's not in 3D.
* InstantlyProvenWrong: Arthur tells Brain to stop getting so angry over Buster's review because it's just one, and it's not like he'll write more. GilliganCut to Buster entering the Sugar Bowl with another review he wrote.
* LeFilmArtistique: Brain and Buster choose a random movie for both to review, and land on a French film with English subtitles called ''Le Murmure de Silence''. Surprisingly, Buster actually enjoys the movie while Brain dislikes it.
* ShoutOut: One movie Brain likes is ''Film/TheRulesOfTheGame'', which he refers to by its French title. Everything he describes about it is accurate as well.

Lakewood Elementary School has just instituted IRP, a program where the students can earn points (and prizes) for reading, and Buster decides to take part because the prize for 500 points is a skateboard.

* ReadingIsCoolAesop: As Mr. Ratburn says, reading isn't a waste of time if you enjoy the experience. Buster didn't like ''Loki Benediktssen and the Teenage Aesir'', but he did enjoy ''City of Droids''.

Buster and Brain just can't seem to agree on movies. Buster rates everything 10+/10 while Brain dislikes everything.
