* AnAesop: Two of them in his review of "[[Film/BeautyAndTheBeast1946 La Belle et la Bete]]". First, at the climax of their fight, Kyle and Tony come to [[HeelRealization realize]] that the whole point of "Beauty and the Beast" is learning to show empathy towards the flawed. Second, thanks to some intervention, both learn that "stories are owned by no one".

** In his ''Film/{{Anonymous}}'' review, he calls out Anti-Stratfordianism by applying the same flawed arguments for doubting Shakespeare's authorship to the film's own director Creator/RolandEmmerich -- assuming that a work of fiction always reflects the author's personal views and life experiences, ''Film/IndependenceDay'' would suggest that Emmerich is a homophobic American conservative (instead of the gay German progressive he actually is).

* InsaneTrollLogic: Basically gives Roland Emmerich a taste of his own medicine by applying the same type of logic behind the Shakespeare authorship question as demonstrated in ''Film/{{Anonymous}}'' with him using ''Film/IndependenceDay'' as "evidence".

** In his video about ''Film/{{Anonymous}}'', when the film gets into the Anti-Stratfordian theory about how the "real" Shakespeare was also the bastard child of [[UsefulNotes/ElizabethI Queen Elizabeth]] and unknowingly committed incest with her, and siring another bastard child, the video displays the text: "THIS IS WHAT ANTI-STRATFORDIANS ACTUALLY BELIEVE".

Added DiffLines:

* BothSidesHaveAPoint: The review for [[Film/BeautyAndTheBeast1946 La Belle et la Bete]] ends with both Kyle and Tony realizing that neither party's preference is wrong, but rather their nitpicking the other. Kyle's preference for the Cocteau version may be out of bias that it's French, but Tony admits that it's "creative in all the right ways". Tony's preference for Disney's version is because (well) it's Disney, but Kyle also acknowledges that the Disney version "has heart in all the right places".


Added DiffLines:

* HeelRealization: Throughout the review of [[Film/BeautyAndTheBeast1946 La Belle et la Bete]], Kyle and Tony have practically been at each other's throats over whether Cocteau or Disney made the better adaptation, it culminates with a heated argument. The fight climaxes with both parties yelling "WHY CAN'T YOU JUST... [[ExlainExplainOhCrap look.. past.. the surface]]?" It's here that they finally recognize they've both "been each other's beast" towards the other's opinion.
