** A ''massive'' jump from the TV show it is based off of in terms of visuals, as it features far more elaborated and detailed backgrounds, on top of incorporating more advanced lighting and shading compared to the show's flat aesthetic. The humans and other dogs are also [[SuddenEyeColor given white sclera and black eyes akin to Clifford]] instead of the BlackBeadEyes they had in the show.

* BigBad: Though the movie itself focuses on Clifford, Cleo, and T-Bone's (mis)adventures with the circus animals, George Wolfsbottom does take the helm as one in the third act after the animals win the talent show, as the wealthy CEO of Tummy Yummies who kidnaps Clifford for his spoiled daughter Madison.
* BigDamnMovie: To the 2000 Clifford The Big Red Dog series. This trope came here just to see a '''big''' red dog.
* FinaleMovie: This movie acts as one for the 2000 series, since the third season was canned and the reboot, despite being officially called season three, is a new continuity and a new take on the premise that barely has anything in common with its predecessor.
