!!The Mystery Science Theater 3000 presentation of ''Film/XMarksTheSpot'' has examples of:
* CurseCutShort: By Joel, of all people, as the Judge is flipping through his book for Joe Doakes' name.
-->'''Joel (as the Judge)''': Doakes... Doakes... I've got "Dickweed," "Dope," "Dumbsh-" Ah, here we go!
* ElmuhFuddSyndwome: Judge/Commissioner Arthur W. "Fudd" [=McGee's=] case of it is roundly mocked. "Impwove twaffic conditions."
* FictionalSport: Joke about how the running total of injuries and fatalities looks like a scoreboard.
-->'''Tom:''' And at the half-time, wow, Injuries are ahead of Fatalities here in New Jersey!
* HitlerAteSugar: Parodied by the Bots after the judge in the short makes an ominous implication intended for Joe's guardian.
-->'''Judge:''' That description fitted someone else I know... if you know who I mean.
-->'''Crow:''' "[[UsefulNotes/AdolfHitler Hitler?]] Uh, no, [[DrivingStick he drove a stick]]."
* {{Joisey}}: The short is mocked for being produced in the state, naturally.
-->'''Judge:''' Born in New Jersey, eh?
-->'''Crow:''' I thought I smelled something.
* JuryDuty: When the judge [[BreakingTheFourthWall calls for the viewers to judge Joe]], Joel quips "We're stranded in space and we ''still'' have to pull jury duty."
* HistoricalInJoke: Joe supposedly ran down Creator/JamesDean.
* NoodleIncident:
-->'''Angel:''' I can't say Joe was out lookin' for trouble, but--
-->'''Crow:''' But I ''did'' find him [[HideYourLesbians down by the waterfront]] [[FanDisservice dressed in a spartan costume]] goin', "Kitty! Kitty!"
* NotBad: Even ''Tom'' is impressed with one of the car stunts, in which Joe's car narrowly misses two others skidding through a wet intersection.
* NotSoStoic: Joel blows up surprisingly early in the going. (Look who's talking.)
-->'''Commissioner:''' Without knowledge, without malice... without thinking.\\
'''Joel:''' Without ENERGY! Would you wake ''up?!'' ''[pantomimes slapping the commissioner across the face]''
* ParallelParking: An early scene has a MatchCut of a car fading into a narrow gap between two cars parked curbside. Tom Servo remarks, "Ah, parallel ''universe'' parking." The car's driver has to leave the space the old-fashioned way -- as Crow puts it, "He uses the Braille system".
* RousingSpeech: Crow delivers one to the audience (and himself) after being inspired by the short. {{Bait and switch}}ed at the end, though, when he pulls a big "Why ME?" and abdicates all responsibility.
* SarcasmMode:
-->'''Joe:''' I never hit-and-run!
-->'''Joel:''' Well, ''that'' changes ''everything''!
* ScrewThisImOuttaHere:
** Joel notes the angel is too happy to dump Joe. Almost word for word:
--->'''Joel:''' ''(as the angel)'' The hell with you, I'm outta here. ''([[DisappearsIntoLight angel fades away]])''
** During the Judge's ending speech, Joel and Tom bail early while Crow sticks around and takes it to heart.
* SeriousBusiness: When the Judge questions the audience's qualifications as drivers to judge Joe, Crow takes it oddly seriously.
* WhatWouldXDo: When Crow wrestles with the questions the Judge asked, he ponders, "What would Joel do?", then tells himself he has to stand on his own two foot-like appendages.
* CurseCutShort: By Joel, of all people, as the Judge is flipping through his book for Joe Doakes' name.
