* AnimationBump: The animation in the sequel is much more vibrant and fluid. It helps that it was made in 2019, when CGI was far more advanced, as opposed to how primitive the first movie looked, even for early 2000s standards.

* BrokenAesop: The moral of the story is that you shouldn't judge a book (or a pumpkin) by its cover. The problem? [[spoiler: Spookley is chosen by the farmer based solely on his square shape!]] On top of that, pumpkins in real life are ''always'' judged by their looks, since they may not be the right size or shape to make a Jack O' Lantern.
* ElephantInTheRoom: While the characters talk about how important pumpkins are on Halloween, they never ''once'' bring up the fact that pumpkins are annually chopped up and gutted for the holiday.
