1	* AwardSnub: Had only a single Academy Award nomination, for Best Original Screenplay, which it lost.
2	* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MbPO7OzGTqs "Now we will demonstrate the orchestration of Mr. Desplat's musical suite."]] The [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pA2-W_HP6q4 other songs]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MPD-WPNxpm are also]] [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th1Gb_-DMjE excellent]].
3	* DiagnosedByTheAudience: Both kids are social misfits but Suzy has a history of going "berserk" and she finds a book of her parents titled ''Coping With The Very Troubled Child''.
4	* HilariousInHindsight: It ain't the first time Creator/BillMurray was in a film where someone [[Film/{{Caddyshack}} gets struck by lightning]].
5	** In ''Film/ManchesterByTheSea'', Suzy and Redford would end up together.
6	* OneSceneWonder: Creator/JasonSchwartzman as Cousin Ben.
7	* RetroactiveRecognition: A pre-''Film/ManchesterByTheSea'' Creator/LucasHedges has a role in the film as Redford, alongside Kara Hayward once more (less scissor-stabbing this time).
8	* ShockingMoments: Oh, there's some. Like, say, [[spoiler: the dog's dead body, everyone finding Sam and Suzy in the same tent, Sam getting struck by lightning, the dam water causing fireworks to blast in the scout commander's cabin, and finally, a bolt of lightning zapping off the rooftop that Sharp, Sam and Suzy were on, ''leaving them hanging on for dear life''.]]
9	%%* SpiritualSuccessor: To ''Film/MelodySWALK'' [[WordOfGod according to the writer/director himself]].
10	* WhatDoYouMeanItsNotForKids: This is Creator/WesAnderson after all. As charming and oftentimes adorable as the movie may be, there's still a little too much swearing as well as some FamilyUnfriendlyViolence such as [[spoiler:a dog getting shot and killed with an arrow and a young boy getting stabbed with scissors ([[AssholeVictim even though he had it coming]])]], [[GoryDiscretionShot none of which is onscreen]] but the effects are still shown.
11	* TheWoobie:
12	** Scout Master Ward. He honestly loves his job and feels Sam's defection is due to his failure as a mentor. Then his entire troop defects to help Sam and and the head Khaki Scout fires him. [[spoiler:Thankfully, Ward is reinstated after saving the head Khaki Scout. And he has a lady friend now.]]
13	** Also Sam and Suzy. Particularly Sam; Suzy may be troubled, but at least she has loving parents.
