24!!Tropes from his works
25
26* AntiHero: He specialized in flawed, dysfunctional protagonists who are faced with circumstances beyond their control and become different people by the end.
27* CentralTheme: Life can be hard and stressful but love will help you through it all.
28* OneWordTitle: ''Wild'' and ''Demolition''. ''C.R.A.Z.Y.'' is more initials than a word.
29* SlidingScaleOfIdealismVsCynicism: His work firmly sits on the idealistic end of the spectrum and doesn’t let up.
