* ArtisticLicensePhysics: Invoked: The Critic's breaking point in the review is the idea that the Psychlos' planet has an atmosphere that can easily explode, and a race as aggressive as the Psychlos have "never had an explosion." However, as stated in the film, the atmosphere the Psychlos breathe reacts violently to radiation, which is what ends up destroying their planet.

** Noah also manages to put forth some excellent ham as Terl.
-->"Now, if you'll excuse me, I have a play to rehearse for tomorrow evening. [[{{Theatre/Hamlet}} 'To be...or not to BEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!']]"
* KilledMidSentence: Once his planet is about to explode, Terl tells the Critic that he needs to recite some dying words. He gets as far as "OOOOOOOOHHH" when the transmission cuts out.
** According to Doug, Noah recorded an entire line, but he decided it would be funnier if he just cut it off right at the beginning.

* RageBreakingPoint:
--> '''Critic''': But after that scene, the humans finally attack! Their plan? To get to the teleporter so they can beam a bomb to the Psychlos planet and blow it up. The explosion will be small, but since the atmosphere is entirely radioactive, it'll wipe out... the entire planet... uh... So this military force of a planet.. that has an atmosphere made out of radiation... has never had an explosion? This race is more trigger-happy than Charlton Heston's shooting gallery, and yet there's never been an explosion on this planet?! They could look at a kitten and somehow they'd make it blow up!! These guys are crazy!! There's never been an explo- You expect me to believe that?! This is STUPID! THIS IS STUPID, STUPID, STUPID, STUPID, STUPID, STUPID... (etc.)
** Though as noted in the next "Fuck-Ups" video, it wasn't just the explosion that did the job, but a ''nuclear'' explosion. But he does still object to the idea that the Psychlos would have never developed nukes themselves.
