* TookTheBadMovieSeriously: John Landis accepted to direct even if he thought the script was weak by thinking Eddie Murphy would make it work. Unfortunadely, Murphy did not go where Landis expected, with a serious performance lacking the snark and ad-libs that made the other two such beloved comedies.

*CompleteMonster: [[VillainWithGoodPublicity Ellis DeWald]] is a former cop turned head of security of the Wonder World theme park, using it as a means to hide his [[CounterfeitCash counterfeit money operation]], murdering the theme park's designer once the latter starts learning of his illegal operation. Ellis starts by ordering his men to kill every mechanic in a chop shop and [[CopKiller murders the boss of Axel Foley]]. When one of his goons gets shot during a car chase, Ellis does nothing but kick him off the van to be run over by a car and killed. Ellis shows no concerns when endangering the lives of children and families, such as when he sends his men to kill Axel by [[FerrisWheelOfDoom sabotaging a theme park ride]] that nearly has two children killed. Near the climax of the film, Ellis holds the protagonist's LoveInterest hostage and threatens to kill her unless Axel gives him the paper they use to print the counterfeit money, but plans to kill them either way.
