** It also fits with the fact that, despite having no problem endangering billions of lives with his master plan, Benedict is shown to find direct use of violence distasteful except as a last resort. It would be entirely in-character of him to [[DoesNotLikeGuns disapprove of guns in general]].

* The big bad wanted to create a year-round school by creating a perpetual winter, ignoring, you know, a shit ton of snow days the kids would be having.
** Which TJ even points out. "We'll just ride our bikes through the snow! We'll play kickball in the slush! We'll go camp out in igloos!"
* As mentioned below, this is in a SharedUniverse with other shows. Wouldn't something that could have taken out the moon's orbit get Wade's attention or at least Jumba's in Kouai. The moon is a singular object, so someone else should have noticed. At least NASA or something like that could have alerted someone who has experience with insanity like this.
** It's possible that everyone else was busy with something else long enough for the movie's plot to happen. Of course, that means there are lots of [[FacePalm facepalms]] ensuing over how they missed it.
** Actually, the show (despite having run for a few years in real-time) still only takes place within the 1997-99 period- so it would in fact take place before all the other shows would've started, so their protagonists would've been totally clueless. (But then ''that'' throws the logistics of the crossover into question, so a bit of timeline fudging could mean the above explanation still applies.)
** Most of the movie takes place over a few days, and the serious tests don't start until over a week into summer vacation. The other characters probably DID notice but didn't have time to pinpoint what was causing it before Benedict was defeated.
* On another note... shouldn't someone living or working directly nearby the school be noticing the giant dish coming out of the roof and firing a green beam into the sky? Surely ''someone'' (besides the kids) would've picked up on the noise they were making, and the green beam probably would've been visible for a good radius...
** It's not a perfect explanation by any means, but you'd be surprised what people are willing to ignore as "someone else's problem". As long as nothing obviously illegal is going on, a lot of people would probably just write it off as a science experiment or something, since it is taking place at a school.
* The school is closed for the summer, hence [[spoiler: why Phillium Benedict uses it to perform his experiment on getting rid of recess.]] Where do kids who have summer school go?
** Possibly the kids who had summer school went to a different school for that, if they even hold summer school at all. Many districts just send all the summer school kids to one school.
** Wouldn't there at least be custodians working throughout the summer?
*** Presumably they do but less regularly than during school, since there are no children to clean up after, and the place wouldn't need day-to-day maintenance. The Prickly impostor may have dismissed them for the summer with whatever excuse Benedict could think of.
* Given the way the tractor beam system works, how were they even able to operate it without blowing all the fuses in the breaker box? Given how old the school is, it's likely the amount of power needed would've not only overwhelmed the school's wiring system but possibly caused some sort of strain/overload on the local power grid.
** Benedict stole the tractor beam from the military, it almost certainly has its own power supply. There's no way a normal, suburban power grid could provide enough electricity.

* Because of AdaptationDisplacement, a lot of newer WesternAnimation/{{Recess}} fans get introduced to the series through this movie; and in any other situation, a lot of the character personalities and stories might be lost on them. However, the film's first playground scene works wonderfully as an [[EstablishingCharacterMoment introduction]] to T.J., his friends, and many of the other kids and faculty at 3rd Street School. Once Spinelli appears stealing some ice cream and the other members of the main six appear, you learn everything you need to know about them as their prank unfolds.

* On that note, the BigBad's plan would have resulted in millions of plants, animals and people dying ''en masse'', and even those that survive the initial shock would still die off later due to the inability to grow crops and other supplies of food dwindling. [[DidNotThinkThisThrough Did he even think this all the way through?!]]
** He didn't. Even in context the plan was doomed to fail. Let's give him the ArtisticLicensePhysics to carry out his plan to make winter. [[AndThenWhat Then what?]] It doesn't change the calender and even if it did. He'd increase the chance of getting snow-days to the point where they cancel out his plan. In conclusion [[EpicFail the villain's plan lacks all scientific reason to work, is hardly logical in execution, would doom us all, and won't pay off even in short-term.]]

* OK, I'm sure most people were confused about a LOT of the stuff Benedict had in this movie. Henchmen, trained ninjas, a group of scientists with odd sci-fi technology and a holographic doo-dad in a principal's office and even a dematerialization device. Now, this would seem odd... unless you consider that this show had a crossover with ''WesternAnimation/LiloAndStitchTheSeries''. That show has a SharedUniverse with ''WesternAnimation/AmericanDragonJakeLong'', ''WesternAnimation/KimPossible'' and ''WesternAnimation/TheProudFamily''. So it actually makes sense on where Benedict got all this stuff: He could have hired the thugs from [=HenchCo=], the technology could be the same crazy sci-fi technology that scientists from ''Kim Possible'' usually make, and even the craziness fits just well with many of the other series. So in a way, this could be an indirect way to explain any PlotHoles that could arise from this.

* Benedict and his henchmen never use guns at all. At first, this seems like the film trying to be family-friendly and not make the antagonists too powerful, but there would actually be a good In-Universe reason for this. While guns would be very effective against kids, they wouldn't be against the troops and the cops, who would not only be more well-armed than Benedict and his goons, but also capable of outnumbering them. It would be hard enough to maintain stealth with his tractor beam tests being conducted in a populated area, so the only way to keep the authorities from investigating is to rely on the absurdity of the notion of a tractor beam. Since guns are real and common place, using them would increase the chances of investigation should someone notice. Also, the loud noises from any discharges wouldn't help at all. In short, Benedict's most effective defense is stealth.

* Considering the fact that in the film, it's shown that Prickly and Benedict were faculty at Third Street School in [[TheSixties 1967]] (Summer of Love), and that it's been thirty years since Benedict was fired from his position as principal for his extremist idea on banning recess, it can be inferred that the film is set either during sammer vacation in 1998, fitting with the fact that the show originally debuted in late August / early September of 1997, right around when schools in the [=US=] and Canada begin their school years.

Added DiffLines:

* The film ends with one of Dr. Benedict's lackeys offering to turn state's evidence for the trial; Randall, overhearing this, remarks "Geez, what a squealer!" This might look like a simple case of HypocriticalHumor, but the series reveals that for all of his love of snitching and tattling, Randall is ''completely'' devoted to Miss Finster, and would never think of betraying her. That's why he's so disgusted with the idea of Benedict's minion ratting him out--he can't even imagine doing the same to Muriel.
* Gus gives Spinelli command of the "Special Forces" (aka The Kindergartners). This makes sense since not only is Spinelli considered the toughest kid in school, she was their leader briefly during "The Break-Up".
* Considering the fact that in the film, it's shown that Prickly and Benedict were faculty at Third Street School in [[TheSixties 1967]] (Summer of Love), and that it's been thirty years since Benedict was fired from his position as principal for his extremist idea on banning recess, it can be inferred that the film is set either during sammer vacation in 1998, fitting with the fact that the show originally debuted in late August / early September of 1997, right around when schools in the [=US=] and Canada begin their school years.

** Benedict is clearly insane by the time the movie takes place, the cracks were already showing when he got fired as principal. The plan isn't supposed to make sense, he's just reached what he thinks is the logical conclusion of his anti-recess crusade. The real fridge horror is ''why on Earth his henchmen are helping him!'' The scientists are probably being coerced through force, but no idea what his goons and ninjas think destroying the world will do for them.

Now, this would seem odd...unless this show in question had a crossover with LiloandStitchTheSeries. That show is has an SharedUniverse with AmericanDragonJakeLong, KimPossible and TheProudFamily. So it actually makes sense on where Benedict got all this stuff: He could have hired the thugs from HenchCo, the technology could be the same crazy sci-fi technology that scientists from Kim Possible usually make, and even the craziness fits just well with many of it. So in a way, this could be an indirect way to explain any PlotHoles that could arise from this.this.
** Even ruling out the shared universe, this would still make sense considering this is the same universe where a president asks a kid for advice, once when the schoolyard fell into disarray there was a helicopter involved, not to mention the Board of Education has some kind of police force attached to it. The series has shades of UrbanFantasy to it.

* The big bad wanted to create a year-round school by creating a perpetual winter; ignoring, you know, a shit ton of snow days the kids would be having.

* As mentioned below, this is in a SharedUniverse with other shows. Wouldn't something that could have taken out the moon's orbit get Wade's attention or at least Jumba's in Kouai. The moon is a singluar object, so someone else should have noticed. At least NASA or something like that could have alerted someone who has experience with insanity like this.

* On that note, the BigBad's plan would have resulted in millions of plants, animals and people dying ''en masse'', and even those that survive the initial shock would still die off later due to the inability to grow crops and other supplies of food dwindling.

* Why did Prickly call the villain insane? Maybe because [[spoiler:creating another ice age to end summer vacation forever would bring forth TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt]]?
** Or maybe because using a tractor beam to change the Moon's orbit is just, you know, insane?
