* ColorfulContrails: The final part of the American Rabbit TransformationSequence features a contrail behind Rob in the stars-and-stripes pattern of the American flag before it transfers onto him.



* TransformationSequence: The one relatively neat scene is the sequence where Rob transforms into the American Rabbit; he sprints and the American Flag suddenly appears behind him like a contrail before his body is changed into those colors.

* BrokenAesop: The film suffers from this big time. The BigBad's henchmen are a biker gang called The Jackals, who are... [[ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin jackals]]. Several times throughout, characters address that no one should assume all jackals are evil just because of the actions of a few bad apples. All well and good, except that there are ''no'' good jackals in the movie -- every one we see is a member of the biker gang and working for the main villain.

* ForTheEvulz: At one point, the BigBad actually says something to the effect of, “I’m a villain, therefore I have to be aimlessly evil in every direction!” This is a perfect and totally understandable explanation for how he has gone from holding some kind of unspecified grudge against a local club to ''plotting to destroy the Statue of Liberty and everyone who is visiting her after they have been promised free chocolate''.
