* MST3KMantra: Invoked in his reviews of ''Film/ANightmareOnElmStreet2FreddysRevenge'' and ''Film/JasonGoesToHellTheFinalFriday'', entries which have both been criticized for going against the continuity of their respective franchises. In both cases, he says that fans get too bent out of shape over franchise "rules" and continuity matters, which results in StrictlyFormula sequels that are designed to keep fans happy rather than push creative boundaries.

* LongTitle:
** The actual title of the film Snob reviewed as "''E.T.: The Porno''": "''[[{{Filth}} THE E.T. OF VAGINA]]: [[BlindIdiotTranslation ONE SETTLES OF THE OTHER WORLD Or]] [[PoliticalOvercorrectness Specially Terrestrian]]: The Extraterrestrial One''".
--->'''Snob:''' That's even too fucking long for a '''{{tagline}}'''!
** Also, ''Film/TheBloodyVideoHorrorThatMadeMePukeOnMyAuntGertrude''. On top of that, Snob is annoyed that it's a NonIndicativeName.
--->'''Snob:''' There's isn't a whole lot of "bloody", or "horror", or "puke", but there sure is a lot of "video".
** In the review of ''Wild Guitar'', Snob reveals that director Ray Dennis Steckler was also the director of ''Film/TheIncrediblyStrangeCreatures'', but Snob doesn't even bother saying the title, instead calling it "The Incredibly Strange ''Long-Ass Title''!".

* MidReviewSketchShow: Not as much as most other critics of his type, but Snob will occasionally have extended sequences of conversation with other characters in his life. Notably in his two-part review of ''Film/ISpitOnYourGrave'', he was so unsure of how to critique the film's nearly twenty-five-minute long rape scene that he spent the time discussing various ways to critique it with Neil (Jake Norvell's character from ''Film/TheCinemaSnobMovie'').

* {{Minimalism}}: [[invoked]] Compared to his fellow reviewers, Brad usually doesn't actually have that much going on in his reviews or his style. Others like the Nostalgia Critic, Spoony and Linkara would often have editing jokes, inserting clips from other movies or even have elaborate skits and plots in their videos. Meanwhile, Snob just sits in his chair and cracks wise about the films, with most of the references being more verbal or CallBack-y. This is lampshaded in the episode for ''Film/HeavensGate'', in which Snob is disappointed that he can't do a big-scope, cameo-filled MilestoneCelebration like his fellow producers and have to resort to actually talking about the movie.

* NegativeContinuity: Whether the show treats any of the Website/ChannelAwesome movies featuring himself, or even the Snob's [[Film/TheCinemaSnobMovie own]] [[Film/AnotherCinemaSnobMovie movies]] as a canon part of the Snob's character, as well as whether Brad's other shows are part of a shared universe with ''The Cinema Snob'' or not, varies drastically from episode to episode, which led to the Snob experiencing a bit of a MindScrew when he reviewed ''Film/TheCinemaSnobMovie''.
