Recess: School's Out/YMMV

• Adaptation Displacement: Sometimes. At times when Recess isn't shown in reruns, whenever Disney Channel or Disney XD feel gernerous and they'll rerun the movie (as well as certain stores still carrying the DVD, but this is more rare), this can happen with much younger kids who never watched the show before. And once they do discover the show, they'll think it was based on the movie.
• And the Fandom Rejoiced: The movie is now availible on iTunes. Whether the rest of the series will follow is currently unknown (It already did in Germany).
• Critical research failure the 3 counties Canada Iceland Norway that  Benedict use to say that no summer vacation is better test to have summer vacation and summer season hell for Canada most citizens live near the us unlike this trope happen this to prove how crazy he is
• Crowning Music of Awesome: The entire sountrack.
  • Special mention to the background music that plays whenever T.J. has a plan... a beefed-up, more badass version of the regular BGM.
• Crowning Moment of Awesome:
  • Gus gets one when he becomes leader of the kids, since T.J. is still trapped in the school.
  • Vince gets his when he destroys the machine.
• Fridge Horror: Why did Prickly call the villain insane? Maybe because creating another ice age to end summer vacation forever would bring forth The End of the World as We Know It?
• Hilarious in Hindsight: Benedict's plan to end Summer Vacation involved turning the Earth into an arctic wasteland. In Crisis on Two Earths, Owlman in the climax ended up exiled to a frozen wasteland parallel Earth with the soon-to-detonate QED. Both Benedict and Owlman were voiced by James Woods.
• Memetic Mutation: "Hello, boys!"
• Narm:
  • Right after T.J. and Principal Prickly's guard disguises fail T.J. yells "RUN!", but is still oddly smiling, possibly due to an animation error.
  • One of the early trailers (seen on the Air Bud: World Pup VHS) has a scene where the kids are about to break into the school with T.J. saying "Cover me, I'm going in", which is obviously recycled from the first episode. This is especially noticable due to the fact that T.J. had a different voice actor in season one.
• Tear Jerker:
  • Seeing T.J. as his friends leave for camp is heartbreaking.
  • There's one that seems to be specifically aimed at the Military Brats in the audience: the gang are in the treehouse discussing pleasant memories of past summers and lamenting that they probably won't make any new ones from here on out, when Gus suddenly starts bawling:

Spinelli: What's the matter with you? You just moved here! Gus: I know! And now I'll never share any of these memories!

• They Wasted a Perfectly Good Character: A very minor example, but Spinelli's parents didn't make any appearances until the ending of the movie where everyone was celebrating that Summer was saved. This was despite the fact that they, or at least Spinelli's father, were established to actually be secret agents dealing with global crises in the ending of one episode, meaning he could have played a role in helping stop Phillium Benedict (especially when his plan definitely had negative global implications in the form of a second ice age).
• Uncanny Valley: The foreign movie poster.
• The Woobie: T.J. in the beginning of the film after his friends go to camp.
