1* AllStarCast: Creator/MackenzieFoy, Creator/RachelMcAdams, Creator/JeffBridges, Creator/BenicioDelToro, Creator/RickyGervais, Creator/PaulGiamatti, Creator/AlbertBrooks, Creator/PaulRudd, Creator/MarionCotillard, Creator/JamesFranco, oh my!
2* ChannelHop: The film was scheduled for release in the United States on March 18, 2016, but Creator/{{Paramount}} dropped the film just a week prior to release, allegedly out of fears it would bomb at the box office and that the film's producers did not make an agreed upon-payment for the film's prints and posters. The rights were picked up by Creator/{{Netflix}} the week of its scheduled release.
3* DenialOfDigitalDistribution: Combined with KeepCirculatingTheTapes. On May 2021 (and everywhere else in 2023), Netflix removed the movie from the streaming service. Unless you live in France (where the region free Blu-ray got released) or the United States and Canada, where Creator/{{Paramount}} released the film on DVD and as a digital purchase or rental, you have to import the French Blu-ray in order to legally watch the film.
4* RoleReprise: In the French dub, Creator/GuillaumeGallienne voices the Snake once again after the [[WesternAnimation/TheLittlePrince2010 2010 series]].
5* ScrewedByTheNetwork: First, Paramount made little effort in promoting the film in the United States, despite having done very well in France, and placed it in a release schedule that sandwiched it with ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}'', ''Film/TenCloverfieldLane'' (which Paramount also released) and ''Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice''. Then, Paramount decided to cancel the United States release a ''week'' in advance, one of the most abrupt release cancellations ever decided, as its producers did not make an agreed-upon payment covering the release's costs. They later dropped the film from their slate.
6** NetworkToTheRescue: Luckily, the movie was quickly picked up by Creator/{{Netflix}}. But sadly, even that didn’t last as the movie was pulled from the service in 2021 (Paramount then put it out on DVD and as a digital purchase and rental).
7* ThoseTwoActors: Creator/JamesFranco and Creator/PaulRudd were in this film and were the voices of the only prominent human characters in ''WesternAnimation/SausageParty''.
