!!For the film
* AlternativeCharacterInterpretation: Did Woodman callously abandoned Lieutenant Cryer, simply assume that he was already dead, or [[ProperlyParanoid view a possible rescue as a trap]] in light of the alien!primates deceiving them into thinking that they were going to be attacking from the elevator?
* AssPull: Harry is shown to have suddenly taken up smoking at the exact moment the story needed someone to unintentionally light up the alien fluid in the petri dish in order for the heroes to learn about heat/fire being the evolution catalyst for the aliens.
%%* CultClassic
* FridgeHorror:
** After the space monkeys got napalmed, they [[FusionDance all integrated into one giant cell]] that wasted no time beginning to divide, meaning that the napalm caused the evolutionary process to start all over, but on a MUCH bigger scale. If the single post-napalm alien cell was as big as it was, imagine what the end result would've been. Can you say "space monkeys the size of Russia"?
** For double the horror, imagine if Woodman had actually gotten his way and been allowed to pop off a nuke.
** For what it's worth, it's not practical for a single animal to be that big since it would be impossible to maintain its metabolism, and the creatures would probably have rapidly evolved to be smaller - but not before wiping out the larger part of America. And since they'd already waded through the evolutionary ladder once, they'd probably be much tougher too.
** Another aspect of Fridge Horror is the fact that at the beginning of the movie we see the asteroid break apart on re-entry, where did the other pieces land?
* RetroactiveRecognition: Ira's angry ex from the diner is Creator/SarahSilverman!
* ValuesDissonance: Harry Block's attraction to his college-age students is very inappropriate for someone with his level of authority. Harry bragged to Wayne that he watched them shower and they just let him watch them without complaint and even said to the military "Those girls were 18" when they said they hacked Kane's computer. Even more disgustingly, Dr. Ira Kane even makes an oral sex joke while Harry is speaking to a student about her grades, implying Harry has a habit of using their grades as leverage so he can have sex with his students, who were 17-18 in age.

* MemeticMutation: "Evolution is your Listerine!", a {{Mondegreen}} of "Evilution is a Mystery" from "Line in the Sand" due to Lemmy being the TropeCodifier for HarshVocals. This has lead to other variants of this such as "Evolution is a Pissed Marine."
