History WesternAnimation / TrollsWorldTour

* NiceHat: Hickory's ten-gallon cowboy hat, [[spoiler:which conceals the much smaller Tyrolean hat he wears as a Yodeler]].
** Branch's captain hat from the hot air balloon also counts.

* LongSongShortScene: Only the chorus of the movie's cover of Music/{{Scorpions}}' "Rock You Like A Hurricane" is heard in the actual movie. The full song is only available in the movie's official soundtrack album.

* VillainSong: A few, sung by Queen Barb: "[[Music/{{Scorpions}} Rock You Like a Hurricane]]", "[[Music/OzzyOsbourne Crazy Train]]" and "[[Music/{{Heart|Band}} Barracuda]]".

* VillainSong: A few, sung by Queen Barb: "[[Music/{{Scorpions}} Rock You Like a Hurricane]]", "[[Music/OzzyOsbourne Crazy Train]]" and "[[Music/{{Heart}} Barracuda]]".

* ThePowerOfRock: Barb and her posse of Rock Trolls ''steamroll'' every other tribe with their music. Her ultimate plan is to channel the power of rock through all six strings and forcibly convert all trolls into rock zombies.

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: There are about 50 named characters in the movie, including both those returning from the first movie and the new ones. It may not seem like a large increase from the first movie (which had an amount of 30), but to note is that many of the supporting and minor characters have more screentime and a larger role in the plot overall.

* BowelBreakingBricks: This time Cooper poops out a several layer cake complete with Candles and Fire.

* EvilVersusEvil: Two sub-genre groups, Reggaeton and K-Pop, have a dance-off over Branch. Neither group has any intention of helping him, though, because they're fighting to see who gets to keep the full prize for the bounty placed by Queen Barb. This would be quickly subverted, as like shown before in the movie, they were just doing their job out of desperation to keep their music. They end up teaming out of respect for one another, and agree to split the capture.

* ClassicalMusicIsBoring: Barb's opinion, mockingly pretending to sleep when the Classical trolls prepare to fight her by playing a snippet of their music. She particularly doesn't like that their songs have no lyrics. Though that doesn't stop her from appropriating their music into a rock version as the Rock trolls go on the offensive.
* CloseCallHaircut: After Barb finishes her rant about Pop music and rushes to check on her dad, she tosses her chainsaw away, which buzzes a nearby Rock Troll's hair. Sid Fret comments that her hair looks nice.
* CrowdSong: Poppy and Branch lead on "Trolls Wanna Have Good Times". The climax has "Just Sing".
* TheCameo: Bridget and Gristle from the first movie show up at the very end of TheStinger, realizing they missed everything. Cloud Guy also appears during the denouement, and in a gag meets a Cloud Girl, marries her and starts a family with three kids.

* EasilyForgiven: [[spoiler: Despite everything the Rock Trolls did, they're forgiven by the end of the film.]]

* FlyingSeafoodSpecial: Techno trolls are aquatic, but can breathe out of the water just fine as they float through the air.

* TheGuardsMustBeCrazy: Growly Pete was assigned to guard the jail that Poppy, Branch and Biggie were put it, by the time Hickory breaks the door off, Pete is fast asleep.

* TheStinger: [[spoiler:King Gristle Jr. and Bridget from the first movie make an appearance at the very end, distraught that they missed the DancePartyEnding.]]

* WithCatlikeTread: Legsly normally wears an anklet with bells on it, which she still keeps on when sneaking into the Rock Troll concert. This gets her and the rest of the Snack Pack caught immediately.

** Queen Barb's plan was previously attempted by the [[spoiler: Pop trolls' ancestral leader]].

* GorgeousGarmentGeneration: The "Just Sing" sequence has a new rainbow colored outfit and dye job appear on Poppy, seemingly at the behest of the audience of all the troll tribes acknowledging her.

** Branch's past trauma has made him sour and pessimistic. So despite being a Pop troll, and being attuned to music that is energetic and cheerful, he finds himself identifying with the Country trolls and enjoying their downbeat and sorrowful music.

** After failing to prevent the Pop Trolls from escaping Lonesome Flats, Delta Dawn and her niece Clampers both exclaim "Well, dang-ity doodily!"
** After being thrown in jail, Poppy kicks the ground and says "sugar".

A 2020 {{sequel}} to [[Creator/DreamWorksAnimation DreamWorks']] 2016 hit animated musical ''WesternAnimation/{{Trolls}}'', and the second feature film in the ''Franchise/{{Trolls}}'' franchise. The film was released online on April 10, 2020, foregoing a theatrical release in most countries due to the [[UsefulNotes/CoronavirusDisease2019Pandemic COVID-19 pandemic]].

* AntiClimax: The Funk Trolls get ready for an all out battle with the Rock Trolls when they arrive, even having battle music play as the population grab their instruments and are heading off to face them. [[spoiler: Only for the Rock Trolls to [[CutTheJuice cut their power]] and they are sitting ducks.]]

* BlackComedyBurst: The musical intro to the Country Troll village of Lonesome Flats has a crowd dance scene where one of the participants has a sudden heart attack and stumbles over into a coffin, which is casually closed as the number concludes. His ghost shows up in the ending credits.

* BrainyBaby / ThreeMonthOldNewborn: In a mild retcon to the first movie, Trolls are born fully cognizant, with Tiny Diamond having a hip hop number right after being named and a newborn Country troll being capable enough to be put to work.
* CantSpitItOut: Branch can't bring himself to admit his love for Poppy who is focused on being queen. [[spoiler: He does so at the end]].

* TheCameo: [[spoiler:Bridget and Gristle from the first movie]] show up at the very end of TheStinger, realizing they missed everything. [[spoiler:Cloud Guy]] also showed up during the denouement and in a gag [[spoiler:meets a Cloud Girl, marries her and starts a family with three kids]].

* SkunkStripe: Early concept art featured [[spoiler:Rock!Branch]] with one, and he still sports a very faint one in the film.

* AllTrollsAreDifferent / GangOfHats: Discussed when Peppy tells Poppy about the other troll tribes that are different from them, she asks if she means different like the trolls in their village; Legsly, who can stretch her legs instead of her hair, Fuzzbert who's covered entirely in hair, or Skyscraper whose [[MultipleHeadCase multiple troll heads]] and arms stacked on top of a single body. What he means by different are how trolls from the other tribes center their culture around a different genres of music and don't understand or like that of the Pop trolls. The trolls of the other tribes have physical differences that allude to other mythical creatures.

** {{Funk}} Trolls are the most open to other types of music as their princes are respectively also into Hip-Hop and [[spoiler: Pop]], showing their appreciation of highly eclectic sources. They're also the most alien compared to every other kind of troll, as they're modeled after the Troll giraffe toys; they have long limbs in either a quadruped or biped body structure and are covered in fur. Following this their tribe has the most advanced, sci-fi like technology, their entire kingdom housed in what's basically a terrestrial spaceship with futuristic devices like tractor beams and floating platforms.

** Whereas Chef was the aged, resentful former royal chef to the ruling family of Bergen Town who sought to overthrow King Gristle Jr. out of revenge for being scapegoated and exiled twenty years prior for the Pop trolls escaping their kingdom, Barb is the young, devil-may-care queen of the Hard Rock Trolls who seeks to forcefully unify all the troll tribes under her music by destroying their respective genres so that only rock music remains.

** Also, while Chef immediately established herself as a threat to Poppy by kidnapping her friends and usually did her own dirty work, Barb never properly interacted with Poppy before the final act of the sequel, up until which point she had relied on bounty hunters to locate Poppy and bring her to Barb with the Pop trolls' string.

* ActorAllusion / ShoutOut: Music/OzzyOsbourne's nickname of "the Prince of Darkness" is referenced when Cloud Guy calls Barb "the Queen of Darkness".
