Narm / Cool Cat Saves the Kids

Go To

The cover on the main page should give you some idea of what to expect from Cool Cat Saves the Kids. It's every bit as cheesy as it looks.

  • Butch, despite the film's attempts to portray him as a sinister force, paints him more like a corny bully from an 80s teen sitcom. He claims he's "gonna punk up" when he tries to bully Cool Cat and Maria, because real people, and definitely children in 2015, actually use the phrase "punk up"note . His phone call to Cool Cat takes the cake in this same scene:
    Butch the Bully: Why do they call you Cool Cat? They should call you Dumb Cat!
    Cool Cat: Who is this!?!?
    Butch the Bully: You heard me! You might look like a cat but you stink like a dog!
    Cool Cat: Dogs are my friends! IDENTIFY YOURSELF!!!
    Butch the Bully: Cats and dogs stink! P-U!
  • Cool Cat's reaction to being cyberbullied:
    Cool Cat: I'm being bullied in my own house? And I don't even know who from? Ugh, it makes me maaaaaaaad!
  • From the same scene:
    Cool Cat: "I'm a bully and I'm gonna get you tomorrow"? Oh NOOOOOOO! What do I DOOOOOOO?
  • Pretty much anything Erik Estrada says, but special mention goes to his infamous line about kicking sand.
  • During Erik's appearance at the Hollywood Parade (which is Stock Footage from the actual TV broadcast), he can be seen looking to the left after he says his line. Clearly, he does not want to be there.
  • When Cool Cat is showing off the other cars in the parade, he refers to them as "the Back to the Future Car" or the "Ghostbusters Car" rather than their actual namesnote . Even more jarringly, most of the cars he focuses on are from films and shows that haven't been relevant for decadesnote , and Cool Cat completely ignores the cars associated with more current brands that children would actually recognizenote . While next to the DeLorean, the actor portraying Doc Brown can clearly be shown shoving Cool Cat out of the way when he tries to get in, implying that Savage and his filming crew were actually trespassing on the parade instead of being invited.
  • All of Daddy Derek's dialogue. He's constantly speaking in an overly excited and cheerfully patronizing manner, particularly in the scene where Cool Cat tells Daddy Derek and Momma Cat about the writing contest. Derek tries so hard to give an overly excited reaction that it sounds like he's sarcastically mocking Cool Cat instead.
    Daddy Derek: WOW, $100?! That's a lot of money!
  • "Help, help! Kids everywhere are being bullied! HEEEEEEEEEEEELP" And the speaker of this line is at a place called "Bully's Diner". If you didn't want to be bullied, then why did you go to Bully's Diner?
  • Cool Cat's whimpering after Butch kicks sand in Cool Cat's FACE!:
    I got scaaared and became confuuuuused!
  • The same scene has eyebrows added to the Cool Cat outfit to make him look angry, only they were put on a little too soon with the result that Cool Cat looks really angry at building sandcastles. Also, the film's advice that shouting really loudly is the key to stopping bullying falls somewhat flat with the fact that Cool Cat already shouts every word he says.
  • During the film's "climax" where Cool Cat, Derek, and the other children watch with concern as Butch is seen with a gun, Jessica Salazar (Maria's actress) is clearly smiling.
