* CreatorCouple: There are two husband-and-wife teams on Team Snob: Brian and Leddie, and Sarah and Dave. (Brian was previously married to Sarah.) Brad and Jillian are exes.



* MarketBasedTitle: ''Midnight Screenings'' is titled ''Brads Current Movie Reviews'' on Website/ThatGuyWithTheGlasses, and acts as a [[CompositeCharacter composite series]] of both ''Midnight Screenings'' and the [[SimilarlyNamedWorks similarly titled]] ''Brad Jones Current Movie Reviews'' from the Cinema Snob site.



* ThePeteBest: Jerrid Foiles, who quit the show after a year. {{Subverted|Trope}} as he started appearing again in 2016.



* ScrewedByTheLawyers: The video on ''[[Film/TheManFromUNCLE2015 The Man From U.N.C.L.E.]]'' was temporarily taken down by Creator/WarnerBros, despite Brad pointing out that it was a review by two people in a car that had no footage from the movie whatsoever. The lack of legal standing meant that the video was re-uploaded the same day. What makes this even more of a Headscratcher is the fact that this was a favorable review of the movie that, if anything, would encourage more people to go see it.
