History WesternAnimation / EightCrazyNights

* ArtStyleDissonance: It looks like a Disney movie (or more appropriately, ''The Iron Giant'' due to having some of the same production crew), but it’s sense of humor leans heavily into the vulgar side.

* UnluckyChildhoodFriend: Davey discovers his ChildhoodFriend and sweetheart, Jennifer, got married, had a son and was then cheated on by her husband, leaving her to raise the son as a single parent.

** After losing the basketball game with Davey and Benjamin, their opponent follows through on the bet of eating a sweaty fat man's jockstrap. However, it becomes subverted when the same guy is shown burning Davey's trailer down soon afterwards...[[CrossesTheLineTwice with the jockstrap still seen in his mouth]].

* ButtMonkey: Whitey, who suffers grand-mal seizures, eletrocutions, insults and many physical injuries from Dave and the townspeople of Dukesberry for their amusement. [[spoiler:Until the ending]].

* MusicalisInterruptus: "Long Ago'' comes to an abrupt stop when Dave notices his trailer is on fire.

!!Tropes:

* AsianStoreOwner: Mr. Chin, played by (Creator/RobSchneider), fits a lot of the stereotypes; although he subverts AsianRudeness just from the fact that the only time he acts angry is completely justified. (Davey dining and dashing). Beyond that he's just curt at worst, not mean.

* AsianStoreOwner: Mr. Chin, played by (Creator/RobSchneider), fits a lot of the stereotypes; although he subverts AsianRudeness just from the fact that the only time he acts angry is completely justified. (Davey dining and dashing). Beyond that he's just curt, not mean.

* MaleGaze: Davey (and the camera) focuses on Jennifer’s butt as she walks away in her introductory scene.

* TrashyTrailerHome: Davey Stone lives in a very small trailer near a junkyard. His trailer has no electricity and no running water, because no one wants to hire an insulting, alcoholic {{jerkass}}. Davey is somewhat looking forward to being sent to jail for his misdemeanors, as jail has heated cells and working toilets. Davey loses what little he had when a SoreLoser sets Davey's trailer ablaze.

** The film's two promotional posters and its soundtrack album features Davey, with a devilish look on his face, flying his trailer through town and up into the air, with Whitey, Eleanore and the deer hanging onto a cord with various bits of Christmas and Hanukkah decor as they trail behind him. Davey's trailer doesn't fly in the film proper, nor is there any implication of the existence of magic.
** The DVD cover for the 2-Disc Special Edition features Davey throwing a snowball at the... well, [[SeanConneryIsAboutToShootYou at you]], as Whitey, Eleanore, Jennifer and her (Jennifer's) son Benjamin, stand by him, smiling over it (except for Eleanore, who reacts as you'd expect her to). Jennifer is most certainly ''not'' shown smiling or otherwise approving of any of Davey's antics or {{Jerkass}} behavior in the actual film.

* InkSuitActor: Nearly all of the name actors in the film, including Adam Sandler himself (based of photos of him from his early twenties) and many of his ''Series/SaturdayNightLive'' alumni friends.

* ArtStyleDissonance: It looks like a Disney movie (or more appropriately, ''The Iron Giant'' due to having some of the same production crew)), but it’s sense of humor leans heavily into the vulgar side.

* {{Bambification}}: The herd of reindeer all look like they came from a Disney movie and make cutesy chittering noises in place of talking. They are also some of the few nice characters in the movie by helping Whitey’s car get unstuck, licking and eating and frozen poop off of Whitey, and helping Whitey and his sister get themselves ready for the Banquet.

* DisneyCreaturesOfTheFarce: The reindeer. They are deliberately made to be as cutesy as possible and help out Whitey whenever they can. This makes it more surprising to see them eat feces and poop out little brown pellets from laughing too hard.

* InformedAttribute: Whitey's been coaching youth basketball for over fifty years, despite his deformity, but the one time we see him in action, he's constantly out of breath and disoriented as if he's never stepped on a court in his life. One could argue that his years are catching up with him though.

* TwoScenesOneDialogue: Or in this case, multiple scenes all singing in chorus.

* WhatHappenedToTheMouse

''Eight Crazy Nights'' is a [[BlatantLies heartwarming family]] {{animated musical}} from 2002 [[SarcasmMode that will bring joy and laughter to people of all ages]].

[[BaitAndSwitch Yeah, right!]]

It's actually about a Jewish drunk in his early thirties named Davey Stone (voiced by Creator/AdamSandler) who, after one too many run-ins with the law, is forced to clean up his act lest he spend the next decade in prison. Local youth sports volunteer and {{bully magnet}} Whitey Duvall (also voiced by Sandler) promises the small town of Dukesberry, New Hampshire that he can turn the delinquent into a model citizen before the last night of Hanukkah. Meanwhile, Davey tries to rekindle a relationship with [[ChildhoodFriendRomance his childhood crush]], who's now a single mother, and her son.
