- Anvilicious: Johnny's fourth wall-breaking speech about the dangers of smoking ends with one of the smoking gangsters falling over dead. Subverted in that the gangster in question was actually suffering a Delayed Reaction to accidentally getting shot. So, does that mean the real moral is "Unload your guns before cleaning them"?
- Awesome Music: "Weird Al" Yankovic himself provided the movie's theme "This is the Life!"
- Ensemble Dark Horse: Richard Dmitri as Roman Moronie, and Joe Piscopo as Danny Vermin each are the most memorable part of the film to some.
- Harsher in Hindsight: The line "It shoots through schools" in the years since Columbine and the increases in the numbers and frequencies of school shootings.
- Memetic Mutation:
- You shouldn't inspire a meme. This film inspired a meme once... ONCE.
- Moronie's speech in court is a veritable Fountain of Memes, you farging iceholes.
- Retroactive Recognition: Hey, that's Batman and the Penguin sitting together in the restaurant scene! And, just as he'll do a few years later, Batman causes the Penguin's death.
