- Adaptation Displacement: Not a lot of people know this movie is based on a children's book series.
- Fandom Rivalry: While Zoom doesn't have much of a fandom, a lot of Sky High (2005) fans like to pin the lack of any sequels to their movie on this film's failure. Somehow.
- Hollywood Homely:
- Tucker's actor had to wear a fat-suit in order to be suitably big enough to be considered fat, in order for certain jokes to work.
- Marsha taking off her glasses makes her seem prettier to Jack, despite being played by Courteney Cox.
- Misblamed: No, this film's box-office failure wasn't the main reason Disney decided not to make any Sky High sequels; Sky High itself may have been a modest success, but the people at Disney at the time didn't think it was enough of a success to take a chance on the proposed sequels.
- Moe: Super strength or not, Cindy is absolutely adorable due to being a six-year-old Girly Girl with normal childish insecurities and interests who doesn't know her own strength.
- Retroactive Recognition: That redheaded telepath? She's also Sue Storm.
- Strangled by the Red String: Dylan and Summer. They hook up after a couple days knowing each other, tops, and a lot of their chemistry boils down to "one's a boy, the other's a girl, so movie law dictates that they must hook up".
- Tear Jerker: While not stated outright, it's definitely implied that Jack is still grieving what happened to Connor and their teammates.
