* {{Narm}}: The plot is focussed around the prestigious red carpet premier of a film called ''Midnight Mayhem''. Aside from the cheesy-sounding title, every detail we learn about the film paints it as BMovie schlock, yet it's treated in-universe like Hollywood's next big hit.

* HarsherInHindsight: When Karen plans to ditch Bryan in their theatre to go see another movie with her friends that their mom didn't approve of, Bryan protests that some guy might break into the theatre and take him hostage. At the time, it just seemed a nice little joke about Bryan being a paranoid little kid. After the 2012 Aurora, Colorado shootings at a screening of ''Film/TheDarkKnightRises'', it's no longer funny.

* UnintentionallySympathetic: Pete is depicted as a bit of an uptight workaholic who needs to learn to relax and take some breaks. Bryan and Karen take plenty of opportunities to mock him as a tightwad who can't understand the pleasure of movies and accuse him of being an AloofBigBrother. In practice however, Pete is shown to be a genuinely sweet and well-meaning guy who genuinely ''loves'' his job and [[InformedFlaw seems to have a far more healthy work/home balance than the other characters claim.]] Even his supposedly dismissive behavior towards his siblings looks more like the result of managing the Megaplex during the film's chaotic events, rather than genuine malice on his part. This doesn't stop Bryan and Karen from taking plenty of smug potshots at him even when he's trying to connect with them.
