History WesternAnimation / SherlockGnomes

-->'''Gnomeo:''' [[GettingCrapPastTheRadar No ''ship'', Sherlock.]]

* ActionizedSequel: There are higher stakes than the first film which leads to more chase and fight sequences. While the first film's climax was a full scale battle between the two gardens, the protagonists themselves have a far more active role in the fighting this time.

* SuicidalGotcha: When Gnomeo is cornered by Moriarty atop Tower Bridge, he takes a single step backwards and plummets out of sight towards the river. [[spoiler:Where he is caught by Juliet who hovering just below on the drone.]]

* ChuckCunninghamSyndrome: Tybalt is nowhere seen in the movie.[[note]][[JustifiedTrope Although it's possible that due to being smashed...]][[/note]] And there was also Featherstone, the plastic, garden flamingo.

* WeaponizedHeadgear: Moriarty flings his plastic hat to take out the drone at Tower Bridge. Particularly creepy as his hat is actually part of him, and still has a piece of his head attached when he throws it.

** In the opening scene, Two other Red Goons suggest other stories like ''[[Series/GameOfThrones Game of Gnomes]]'', ''[[Radio/TheLoneRanger The Gnome Ranger]]'', ''[[Franchise/TheTwilightZone The Twilight Gnome]]'', ''[[Film/SpiderManHomecoming Spider-Man: Gnomecoming]]'', and ''[[Franchise/IndianaJones Indiana Gnomes]]'' instead of the main story.

The film follows Gnomeo and Juliet (Creator/JamesMcAvoy, Creator/EmilyBlunt), who, after their beloved friends and family are missing, must receive help from [[Literature/SherlockHolmes Sherlock Gnomes]] (Creator/JohnnyDepp) and his right-hand man Gnome Watson (Creator/ChiwetelEjiofor) from suffering death from Sherlock's ArchEnemy Moriarty.

* ContinuityNod: There is a thin but only just noticeable line where Benny's hat has been fixed after it was smashed by Tybalt in the first film.
** [[MissingTrailerScene In the film's teaser trailer]], Sherlock accidentally knocks over one of the small red gnomes, causing his hat to break like Benny's in the first film.[[note]]Though Benny's has been somehow fixed in this movie.[[/note]]

* ShoutOut: Moriarty says he was 'deaded', that someone is 'misrebable'... ''Radio/TheGoonShow'', anyone?

* TheComicallySerious: Watson is this to [[{{Cloudcuckoolander}} Sherlock]]. Gnomeo and Juliet serve as a collective StraightMan.

* FurryReminder: Irene (mostly by having real hair) is the most human-looking character in the main cast; in the scene where her doll joints are covered, she's drinking pretend tea and apparently believing it's real, like a doll would.

* GreatDetective: Sherlock, described by WordOfGod as "the greatest ornamental detective".
