* Dr. Nefarious hits [[spoiler:Captain Qwark]] with an [[TheReasonYouSuckSpeech awesome breaking speech]] late in the film. There's no question that Nefarious is a villain who crossed the line by building the Deplanetizer for Drek [[spoiler:which destroys Novalis and several other planets, in addition to Nefarious nearly atomizing Aleero City in the past]], but [[spoiler:he's rightfully angry at Captain Qwark for [[BadBoss how badly he treated Nefarious]] when he worked for the Rangers. He also successfully calls out Qwark as a [[{{Hypocrite}} sellout and hypocrite]] when Qwark gets mad at Drek for going back on his word by trying to kill the Rangers, with Nefarious pointing out that Qwark's actions--backstabbing the Galactic Rangers and siding with Drek in exchange for a PR comeback, [[GreenEyedMonster all because Ratchet was getting the limelight over him]], [[VillainHasAPoint were just as low as anything Nefarious or Drek had done]]. Qwark is visibly shaken by this.]]
-->'''Nefarious:''' Oh, people will say and do just about anything for the right price. What was yours, [[spoiler:Qwark?]] [[ArmorPiercingQuestion What was your price for selling out your friends?]] Your face on another cereal box?
* Regardless of whether its a [[RuleOfFunny funny gag]] or [[AssPull a cheap story cop-out]], [[spoiler:whoever managed to get the ''entire population of Novalis'' evacuated in time before the Deplanetizer destroyed it deserves a medal.]]

* There's also the fact that when [[spoiler:Captain Qwark]] [[LetsGetDangerous puts his mind to it]], he is shockingly competent in your boss battle with him. Most of the weapons that you've been blowing up enemies with? ''He uses those right back at you.''
** This is also the first time you get to ''actually'' fight [[spoiler:Qwark]], as this boss wasn't present in the original game and in his subsequent appearances he was never truly fought. And he doesn't disappoint.
** And during the boss, when [[spoiler:Qwark]] breaks out the Groovitron, Ratchet still puts up a fight while under its influence, [[DanceBattler dancing his way over to the Groovitron]] so he can smash it with his wrench.

* Let's appreciate the fact that, in a world where CelebrityVoiceActor seems to be an inescapable fact of animated movies these days, we've got Creator/JamesArnoldTaylor and Creator/DavidKaye as the leads in a theatrical motion picture! They even get BilledAboveTheTitle--[[BillingDisplacement fifth and sixth]], but still.
** ''Un''fortunately, [[EpicFail they're billed dead last below the other voice actors during the movie credits.]]
*** Isn't Creator/SylvesterStallone himself credited after JAT and DK? Plus, Vincent Tong and Creator/JimWard are credited alongside the celebrity voice actors, so there's that.
*** Not only that; James, David and Sly all get the AndStarring treatment. That's usually saved for big-name stars. How's ''that'' for recognition?

*** Technically, this would be the second time you fight [[spoiler:Qwark]] in person - the first time would be in Up Your Arsenal.
