* Mr. Krupp yells at George and Harold for changing the letters on the school sign that read "Sewage Plant Field Trips are Today" to "Come See My Hairy Armpits". A similar incident happened in the second book where they changed the letters on a furniture store sign from "Come In and See Our Pretty Armchairs" to "Come and See Our Hairy Armpits". George and Harold changing the letters of the school signs is a general RunningGag in the books and later in the {{WesternAnimation/TheEpicTalesOfCaptainUnderpants TV series.}}

* The credits illustrations are LOADED with these, with at least one or two thing from every book in the series, from the first to the last. Listed all down in order are:
** Dr. Diaper’s robots being squashed by Captain Underpants falling over them while they try to steal the Crystal, in a CallBack from a similar scene in the movie where Captain Underpants stops a duo of robbers.
** George and Harold using a pole to quickly write “I will not make comics” multiple times at once in the chalkboard as in Book 2.
** Captain Underpants, George, and Harold smashing over the Dandelion of Doom and falling in a replicated manner from when they were in the same situation in Book 3.
** George and Harold being intimidated by the Wicked Wedgie Woman from Book 5.
** Professor Poopypants riding his Tippy Tinkletrousers time-traveling robo-pants and shooting from the Freeze-Ray 4000, all from Books 9 and 10.
** The evil lunch lady aliens, Zorx, Klax, and Jennifer, shooting the city from their UFO as in Book 3.
** George, Harold, and Captain Underpants being chased by Mr. Meaner / Sir Stinks-a-Lot from Book 12.
** Robo-George and the Harold-2000 destroying the city as in Book 5.
** In a FreezeFrameBonus during the transition from the previous Gag to the next, an angry human cafeteria lady from Book 3 is seen.
** The school teachers mad at George and Harold for having their chairs stuck in their backs as in Book 2.
** Melvin in his Glow-in-the-Dark Time-Traveling Robo-Squid Suit grabbing Captain Underpants, George, and Harold. However, unlike the exact scene in Book 11, George and Harold are not holding Sulu and Crackers’ eggs.
** Captain Underpants having his cape stuck on the back of a truck. In book 1, the truck is driven by Dr. Diaper’s robots, but the credits of the movie do not show the driver.
** And finally, George and Harold being shocked at the school kids coming out of the cafeteria as Lunchroom Zombie Nerds in an exact reenactment from the scene in Book 3.

* Although the circumstances are completely different, the plot point of George and Harold having first become friends in kindergarten was almost certainly inspired by book 9, which was a WholeEpisodeFlashback which also established that George and Harold first met in kindergarten.

* The book's obsession with Uranus shows up as the basis for George and Harold becoming friends. [[spoiler:It also serves as a ChekhovsGag.]]
