  • Awesome, Dear Boy: This was Tony Goldmark's main reason for accepting the role in this movie. He has admitted a major reason why he wanted to be on Channel Awesome in the first place was that the anniversary movies looked like fun to film.
  • Creative Differences: The difference of opinion between the Chicago website crew and the other cast members involving the #ChangeTheChannel controversy is what ultimately collapsed the production. Greg Michaud, the official producer communicator, worded the cancellation reason as "compounding factors".
  • Lying Creator: When word got out about the anniversary film starting production with a relatively small number of producers in the cast, many producers were not happy about their exclusion. Greg Michaud told everyone that the cast had not been finalized for the film yet. This directly contradicted the latest draft of the script where the cast seemed like it was set in stone. Greg admitted to Tony Goldmark on Skype DMs that, after falsely stating it was because of "scheduling conflicts", the production would be the biggest Channel Awesome had ever made and, had they added another two dozen producers added to the production, it would no longer be financially feasible. This was never admitted to the other producers.
  • Milestone Celebration: This would have been the first anniversary movie made since the anthology project The Uncanny Valley, with the movie commemorating the website's tenth anniversary.
  • Sequel Gap: If made and released, it would have been five years since The Uncanny Valley's release and six years since the comparable production of To Boldly Flee.
