1 | * AngstWhatAngst: After Otto loses his girlfriend to his best friend, he's angstless when he runs into them at a punk club. |
2 | * SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Essentially ''L.A. Punk: The Soundtrack/Greatest Hits'' album you need to own. Now. |
3 | %%Zero Context Example* CultClassic |
4 | * HilariousInHindsight: A punk at a party wears a Music/SidVicious t-shirt. Alex Cox's next film was ''Film/SidAndNancy''. |
5 | * SpecialEffectFailure: At the start of the scene where Otto vomits over the side of the bridge, Creator/EmilioEstevez ''clearly'' has something in his mouth. |

7 | ** Nuclear paranoia was much more relevant during the Cold War than it is now. |
8 | ** The 1980s punk scene is a large presence in the film. |
9 | ** The generic product labels date it to the early 80s, when they were ubiquitous in supermarkets, before stores dumped them in favor of putting off-brand products into "store brand" packaging that looked more like their name brand counterparts. |
10 | ** Downtown L.A. become ''much less'' of a shithole in the years that followed, so the trash-strewn esthetic looks more like clever set design than it actually was. |
11 | * SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: On the other hand, [[spoiler:the car's sickly green glow]] is perfectly realized. |
