- Acting for Two: Eric Bauza voices all three speaking Splits (Fleegle, Bingo, and Drooper), and the TV show announcer. As for Snorky, he only communicates in honking noises (which is accurate to the original show).
- Ashcan Copy: Inverted slightly since this was intended to be released, but this film seems to have been made by Warner Bros. in a desperate attempt to keep the Splits' copyright from expiring given that they've barely done anything with the Splits for quite a while and to do something vaguely Five Nights At Freddys-esque now that they've lost the film rights to FNAF.
- Fake American: Everyone in the movie is played by either Canadians or South Africans.
- Follow the Leader: The film reboot seems to be taking a number of cues from the Five Nights At Freddys series, being about animatronics meant to entertain children apparently coming to life at night and going on a killing spree. In fact, it is widely believed that this film spun out of a rejected script for a FNAF film adaptation that Warner Brothers had been developing.
- He Also Did:
- Writers Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas previously collaborated on My Super Psycho Sweet 16, Raven's Home, Randy Cunningham: 9th Grade Ninja, Scooby-Doo! Mystery Incorporated, Scooby Doo! Pirates Ahoy!, and Scooby-Doo: Camp Scare.
- The music was composed by Patrick Stump, the frontman of Fall Out Boy.
- Meaningful Release Date: The movie was released on DVD and Blu-ray on August 27th, 2019, the same week as National Banana Split Day (two days after it, due to home movie releases being on the Tuesday of the week).
- Saved from Development Hell: This film is the result of numerous failed attempts to revive the Splits by Blue Ribbon Content's Executive Vice President Peter Girardi.
