There's not really anything in this movie that makes it seem child-friendly, and we shouldn't just use this trope for every animated movie not for kids.


* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: One of the more blatant examples of an animated movie not necessarily being a kid's movie.

None


* WhatDoYouMeanItWasntMadeOnDrugs: Quite possibly the most extreme case in the history of this trope. You've seriously gotta wonder how honest the creator was being when he denied their playing any part in the making of the film.

* CompleteMonster: [=HIM=]. In his very first scene, he physically assaults his girlfriend and throws her against a wall. In the same scene, he shoos her away, ordering her not to come back until she looks as beautiful as the models on his "girly posters" and tells her how ugly she looks wherever she smiles or talks. Then, later in the film, when he reappears and faces off against one of the heroes [[spoiler:he brags about how he had just killed said hero's little boy moments ago.]]
