1* CreatorCameo: Writer-director John Krasinski reprises his role as Lee Abbott in a flashback.
2* DelayedReleaseTieIn: A Bugles promotion advertised the film's original May 2020 release date.
3* DirectedByCastMember: John Krasinski, although this time he's only in the opening scene of the movie.
4* DisabledCharacterDisabledActor: Deaf actress Millicent Simmonds reprises her role as Regan Abbott from the first film.
5* TheOtherDarrin: The Abbotts' youngest son, Beau, only briefly appears during the opening flashback set before his death in the first film, meaning his original actor, Cade Woodward, had aged out of the role. Woodward's younger brother Dean replaces him for this appearance, with the film obscuring his face.
6* ReleaseDateChange: Perhaps the most immediate casualty of the UsefulNotes/COVID19Pandemic, given it was the only film set for wide release the week theaters closed and tickets for the film had already gone on sale, including a planned double feature preview screening with [[Film/AQuietPlace the first film]]. ''Part II'' was originally announced for May 15, 2020 before being pulled forward to March 19, 2020 (in the United Kingdom and Australia) and the following day in North America. Just one week before the supposed release date, its release date was indefinitely delayed, [[FlipFlopOfGod despite Paramount saying it wouldn't be changed the Friday beforehand]]. After being pushed back several times to September 17, 2021, it was suddenly moved forward to May 28 of that year, a few days after the announcement that it would premiere on Creator/ParamountPlus 45 days after its theatrical release.
7* RevivalByCommercialization: 18 years after previously experiencing this courtesy of ''WesternAnimation/FindingNemo'', "Beyond the Sea" saw renewed interest once again thanks to this movie.
8* ThrowItIn: In the opening sequence as Evelyn reverses her car out of the way of an incoming bus, the camera dramatically zooms in on her face during the action. [[https://youtu.be/M57NmccfZxA?t=560 According to John Krasinski during a scene breakdown]], this was a mistake caused by the camera malfunctioning and sliding forward, but it was such a good shot that it was kept in the final product.
