of...
* BigWhat: Critic does this when he finds out that Peter Fonda and Alec Baldwin are in a ''Thomas the Tank Engine'' movie, movie rather than the other way around, though it cuts off before he can finish it.



* FakeOutOpening: The Critic dramatically introduces the movie as if it's a Peter Fonda/Alec Baldwin drama, only to get thrown off when he reads that "Most Adorable Smile Award Creator/MaraWilson" is in the movie, then really confused upon learning that Thomas the Tank Engine is in this movie.



-->'''Diesel:''' I'm gonna destroy her and dominate you!
-->'''Critic:''' Whoa! Keep it in the bedroom, Diesel!
* RunningGag: ''"It's Thomas the FUCKING Tank Engine!"''

''"It's Thomas the FUCKING Tank Engine!"''



* SynchroVox: The Critic edits the movie this way in response to the trains' lack of lip movement, but with gag dialogue:
-->'''Thomas:''' Say, Gordon, I was just wondering why we live in a town called Sodor. Is that a retirement home for ''Literature/LordOfTheRings'' villains?\\
'''Gordon:''' I'm just trying to put together how we procreate. I mean, do trains have sperm?\\
'''Thomas:''' Goodness gracious me.



* [[WeWantOurJerkBack We Want Our Depressed Guy Back]]: After Peter Fonda's character is happy once more, Critic wishes he was back to being depressed.

* CriticalResearchFailure: Not that this is new to the NC, but...
** If Doug was really confused as to why Alec Baldwin was in the movie, all he had to do was look up Baldwin's Wikipedia or [=IMDb=] page to find out he was narrating the US airings of the show at the time the movie was in production. Other Narrators you wouldn't expect to be a part of the show were also Ringo Starr (Series 1-2), George Carlin (US Series 3-4 & redubbed 1 & 2 for later broadcasts), and ''Pierce Brosnan'' for a special. Ringo and Carlin even played Mr. Conductor in the show Shining Time comes from as well.
** One that's pretty bad, since it's ''plain as day in the movie'', but when the NC wonders why Mr. Conductor doesn't just bring a person from the regular world to Sodor, stating that they'd be a giant there capable of crushing Diesel 10 with their feet, it's undermined when you've either watched the movie beforehand and know that they shrink down when they get to Sodor, or you see in the review through the clips that it's explicitly shown ''after he makes that statement'' that Lily, Patch, and Burnette Stone all stay within relative scale with Lady and Thomas when they get to Sodor, and are the same size as Mr. Conductor and Jr when they get there too. Yeah, nice pointing something out that you perceive to be a plot hole in the movie that's actually shown visually halfway through, Doug.
** Also, towards Jr. being Mr. Conductor's cousin or son, anyone who has the same name as their father could have the nickname "Junior" given to them by family to make the distinction between them and their parent when addressing them. That being said, he's most likely Conductor's cousin and not son, given that's how they establish his character's relation to him.
** Also, a little look into the production history and original plot of the film might've alleviated some of the confusion on the NC's part in regards to the way the film was put together, namely the cut villain and other things altered from when the film was shot to when it premiered.



* HilariousInHindsight: The Critic stated he didn't understand why Sodor in the movie wasn't just a part of the real world, with all trains being sentient with faces, rather than being an alternate dimension. Little did Doug know that in the books the show's based on and the show itself, it's pretty much outright stated, if not just strongly implied, that Sodor's an island off the coast of England and every train is stated to be like the ones from Sodor; sentient with faces and voices.

** One that's pretty bad, since it's ''plain as day in the movie'', but when the NC wonders why Mr. Conductor doesn't just bring a person from the regular world to Sodor, stating that they'd be a giant there capable of crushing Diesel 10 with their feet, it's undermined when you've either watched the movie beforehand and know that they shrink down when they get to Sodor, but it's explicitly shown ''after he makes that statement'' that Lily, Patch, and Lily's grandpa all stay within relative scale with Lady and Thomas when they get to Sodor, and are the same size as Mr. Conductor and Jr when they get there too.
