History YMMV / FreddyVsJason

* TheScrappy: Lori Campbell. Poorly acted and incredibly whiny. Though some liker her [[MsFanservice for other reasons.]]
** Almost every character in this film is a scrappy to someone else. For every fan a character has, they have twice as many haters.

** Like the other Elm Street and Friday movie, any character that isn't the villain.

* FridgeHorror: When Freddy discovers Jason's weakness to water, he adds insult to injury by showing the dismembered head of Jason's Mother in front of his child form. Now Jason is a GeniusBruiser when it comes to killing, everything else however he is not so smart. So when he sees his mother's head he comes to the logical conclusion (in his point of view.) that Freddy killed Mrs. Voorhees. When Freddy enters the real world, Jason even stops going after the others just to confront Freddy.

* CharacterDerailment: The film portrays Jason as greatly afraid of water, in spite of the fact that several past films (Final Chapter, VI, and VIII) have shown him to think very little of it. It could be potentially justified in this case though, as when Jason exhibits these fears, it's while he's facing Freddy in the dream world, who could possibly be increasing any subconscious fears Jason has to overpower him where they would otherwise have little to no effect on him in the real world.

* CompleteMonster: Freddy Krueger has stopped to be a comic figure at this time and showed off how evil he actually is. Surprisingly, it's averted with Jason; while he's the one who kills most of the characters, he's more of TheWoobie than the villain.

* AndTheFandomRejoiced: Freddy vs Jason, 'nuff said.

* TakeThat: During an episode of ''Nick Cannon Presents Wild 'N Out'' on MTV, Kelly Rowland accepted a "Thanks For Nothing" award for the film; the skit's intent was to make fun of embarassing projects that actors had been involved in. Kelly's acceptance speech for the "award" was one line:
-->Fifty million opening week, thank you, ladies and gentlemen.

* WoobieDestroyerOfWorlds: Jason, of all people, comes off like this in the film, especially during his dream battle with Freddy. Most people root for him over Freddy, because at least he isn't a child molester.

* FreudWasRight: Kia decides to invoke this on Freddy, comparing his tiny knives to Jason's great big machete. [[spoiler:Unfortunately, she wasn't paying attention, and she promptly meets said machete]].

* ParanoiaFuel: Freddy's plan to regain his power hinges on the town of Springwood becoming afraid of him again, which is why he sends Jason to drum up a good dose of paranoia amongst the adults (which ends up trickling down to the town's teens) by killing people.

* IHaveYouNowMyPretty: Like most films where he's got a young lady to contend with. Not only does he kiss her, Freddy really, [[VillainousCrush REALLY enjoys]] when he tries to [[spoiler: rape]] Lori.
* IncrediblyLamePun: Freddy's Back. Written on someone's back.

* TheWoobie: Jason, of all people, comes off like this in the film, especially during his dream battle with Freddy. Most people root for him over Freddy, because at least he isn't a child molester.

* {{Narm}}: And plenty of it. Especially Lori's :O -face at some parts.

* CompleteMonster: Freddy Krueger has stopped to be a comic figure at this time and showed off how evil he actually is. Surprisingly, it's averted with Jason; while he's the one who kills most of the characters, he's more of The Woobie than the villain.

* IncrediblyLamePun: Freddy's Back. Written on someone's back.

* {{Narm}}: And plenty of it. Especially Lori's :O -face at some parts.

* Big Lipped Alligator Moment: When Freddy enters Lori's dream about the others wanting to sacrifice her, disguised as her father, to french kiss her. No reason why he's disguised as her father and no mention of the events of that dream from either of them.
* Complete Monster: Freddy Krueger has stopped to be a comic figure at this time and showed off how evil he actually is. Surprisingly, it's averted with Jason; while he's the one who kills most of the characters, he's more of The Woobie than the villain.
* Narm: And plenty of it. Especially Lori's :O -face at some parts.
* Nightmare Fuel: For all the Narm in this film, some scenes, such as the "PLEASE WAKE ME UP!" moment, are genuinely disturbing.
