Moved all examples pertaining the second movie to their own YMMV tab. =)


* AssPull: The Finale of the sequel. Specifically, the reactions of the Archdiocese at the end of the film don't match their reactions during the musical number by a long shot.



* ClicheStorm: The sequel's plot is basically the quirky teacher that the strict authority figures don't get her style of teaching, but she helps the troubled inner city students believe in themselves, then proves all the stuck up authority figures wrong, and saves the school from the [[CorruptCorporateExecutive corrupt corporate executive]], by winning a choir contest.



* GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff: The first movie is a huge hit in Japan. "Hail Holy Queen" as performed in this movie in particular is a staple of Japanese school choir, and the movie sees a lot of reruns on television.
* HilariousInHindsight: The class chanting 'FUSION, FUSION, FUSION' becomes even funnier when you realise that one of the students is played by Deedee Magno Hall, who would later have a starring role in ''WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse'', where the concept of 'fusion' is a major plot point
* LGBTFanbase: The first movie and the Broadway musical are huge hits with the LGBT community. [[http://www.thesisters.org The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence]]--a worldwide organization of drag nuns that do charity for the community--particularly revere the movie, its music, and its message, even though the group predates the film by over a decade.
* MemeticMutation: "When Jesus '''''WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA--'''''"

* {{Moe}}: Sister Mary Robert.
* OlderThanTheyThink: Mary Wickes (Sister Mary Lazarus) was in [[Film/TheTroubleWithAngels a hit film about nuns AND its sequel]] almost 20 years previously!
* RetroactiveRecognition: Creator/JenniferLoveHewitt, [[Series/BeakmansWorld Alanna]] [[Series/SeeDadRun Ubach]] and [[Trivia/TheMickeyMouseClub Deedee]] [[WesternAnimation/StevenUniverse Magno-Hall]] all have small roles in the sequel. And of course Music/LaurynHill, seeing as Music/TheFugees hadn't taken off yet. Also Creator/MaggieSmith as Mother Superior may be one for those that know her more as Professor [=McGonagall=] in ''Franchise/HarryPotter'' which would come out almost a decade later.

** Would a teacher get away nowadays with telling a '[[YourMom yo Mama]]' joke to a student, however humorous and light-hearted it may be?

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: ''Dear Lord''. The [[https://youtu.be/VKi0MV0ZVVo?si=UrW0WHDxoxO777RP Hail Holy Queen]] sequence in the middle and [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPpd-6X3tEo I Will Follow Him]] in the end are two of the best songs made for a movie, ''ever''. Inverted with the StylisticSuck of Deloris' act in the opener of the sequel.
