Discussion Film / TheGarbagePailKidsMovie

These three lack relevant details. I suspect the original point was to make a jab at the film.

• Broken Aesop: The film does very little to rectify the fact that the Garbage Pail Kids are just as ugly on the inside as on the outside — they're rude, obnoxious, vandals, thieves and general troublemakers.
• Clueless Aesop: The film was based on a line of deliberately violent and disgusting trading cards, which arguably couldn't handle ANY aesop well.

No indication what the moral message is and more importantly exactly how the film tries to convey it, if it is trying to do so to start with.

• Funbag Airbag: Blythe on Dodger.
• Grossout Film
• Leave the Camera Running: The campfire scenes.

These entries just have no or few details. See How To Write An Example.

• Mood Whiplash: The State Home for the Ugly. The whole idea of people getting rounded up in compounds by the state based on their appearance, is pretty dark on its own. But add in some very heavy implications about the staff planning to execute the inmates, and it becomes downright disturbing and offensive.

If this is Mood Whiplash, what is the mood that is in jarring contrast that holds before and after? On the face of it a morbid and/or distasteful element would fit in the mood of the rest the film fairly well.

One odd thing about this movie that I've noticed watching the actual movie, not the Critic review: Dodger actually says he's 14 going on 15 in one scene. Considering that he still looks like he's 11, it's kind of jarring.
