* ThrowTheDogABone: Prepping himself for the opening theme which he absolutely ''dreads'', the Critic is absolutely ecstatic when he realizes that Disney changed the theme song. Not because he thinks it's good, but because he's been spared another round of ear rape from the original.

* RageBreakingPoint: The Critic was able to let some of the movie's more baffling moments slide -- the male students being excited for the Valentine's Dance, Mayor Dink not using her powers to expose Herman, and Roger and his gang not attracting media attention for inventing a HumoungousMecha or a ShrinkRay -- but he draws the line at Herman being called cute by the girls while disguised as a girl himself.

** The Critic describes Robocrusher as "a sort of Creator/JuliaChild bot".
