* UnpleasableFanbase: No matter how hard the judge tries to be impartial with their decision, there will always be people in the comments section complaining about their ruling, raging about how the judge only pick their favourite. Andy (the regular host) has to repeatedly clarify that he's making the decision "based on the arguments" and would often point out that he doesn't always agree with his own decision.

* BizarroEpisode: By the producers' own admission, the episode that featured Jeremy Jahns is by far the craziest episode they have. It features an unprecedented team-up between Jeremy and Kristian, leading to the Screen Junkies tag team raising a peanut gallery throughout the rounds as they try to argue from the couch, and constantly dispute with the host's ruling.

** In one of the speed rounds, Andy asked "What is the best movie with the word 'Night' in the title?". Mark answered ''Film/NightOfTheLivingDead'', while Kristian picked ''Nightfalls''. The judges gave a slight edge to Mark's answer, after which Kristian revealed that his pick wasn't even an actual movie. It was impressive to see how well he defended a film that doesn't even exist, and Nick mentioned how such crazy move is beyond anything that he would have pulled.

Is that really the trope? It\'s \"minor character becomes popular\", not \"guest who people wanted in the first place\".

* CrazyAwesome: Nick frequently loses his rounds by pitching very weird ideas when asked to give a dream concept, such as the "''Series/GameOfThrones'' animal kingdom massacre" or "porno ''Franchise/HarryPotter''" suggestions he made during the championship bout. No one on the panel takes his crazy ideas seriously, but fans seem to love the creativity and enthusiasm to defend those concepts, illogical as they may be.

** The ''WebVide/ScreenJunkies'' have received a lot of requests to bring in Jeremy Jahns in Movie Fights, which they did. During the show, Jeremy pulled off the infamous Jahns-Harloff team-up, where Kristian ended up doing most of the talking. Let down fans complain that this is one of the worse Movie Fights episode because of it.
** Happens again during the showdown between ''Screen Junkies'' vs. ''WebVideo/CinemaSins'', where Andy Signore and Jeremy Scott ended up taking over most of the debate, somewhat sidelining their respective team mates: Dan Murrell and Chris Atkinson.
