* ActionizedSequel: The movie as a whole shows just how fast and deadly the aliens are, with a sequence set during the first few hours of the invasion, which consists of the aliens demolishing things left and right and even appearing to ''drive an out of control, speeding bus'' to catch up to their targets. Furthermore, because the aliens now have a known, exploitable weakness, there are more sequences of humans fighting back against the aliens rather than being forced to run and hide as in the previous film.

* ArmourPiercingQuestion: When Emmett insists on returning Regan home, she asks him what home to which he doesn't have an answer.

* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Downplayed. A community ballgame is interrupted with the sight of a massive fireball meteor crossing the sky and about to impact not far away. While the game ends right there with no question and the people disperse, the tone feels oddly calm and relaxed compared to what they just saw. This, of course, greatly contrasts the chaos when the aliens arrive.
