* {{Misblamed}}: No, this film's box-office failure ''wasn't'' the main reason Disney decided not to make any ''Sky High'' sequels; ''Sky High'' itself may have been a modest success, but the people at Disney at the time didn't think it was enough of a success to take a chance on the proposed sequels.

Misuse. It's not enough for a scene to be filler, it has to make no sense in context.


* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: Tucker, Cindy and Summer messing with Dr. Grant in a weather simulation has no bearing on the plot.

* ValuesDissonance:
** Jack makes quite a few jokes at the expense of the chubby kid, Tucker. In 2006 this may have made him seem more like a grizzled AntiHero whose emotionally distant, but this can come across as unnecessarily petty towards Tucker, since it amounts to [[HarmfulToMinors a grown man insulting a child for his appearance.]]
** Jack is also generally rude and dismissive towards Marsha despite her being more informed about the nature of how the lab works, especially since these comments are often unprovoked by Marsha herself and are mostly due to Jack's exasperation at a given situation. He refers to her as "the green dress" for the earlier parts of the movie, essentially objectifying her to her clothes, [[DoubleStandard and often downplays her intelligence and mocks her in ways that he noticeably doesn't do towards male colleagues.]] It was likely intended to be endearing, but a modern audience might think otherwise.
** On that note, Jack also makes a somewhat homophobic comment when another man is giving a warning. This is especially jarring since it comes basically out of nowhere.
---> '''Jack''': For a straight guy, you're dramatic!
