Bart gathers the other children and declares war on Nelson Muntz, a prolific bully.
Tropes used in The Simpsons (animation)/Recap/S01/E05 Bart the General include:
- Early Installment Weirdness: The episode doesn't contain a couch gag, blackboard gag, or nearly anything established in the previous 2 episodes.
- Shout-Out: To the majority of war films.
- Some music was directly lifted from Patton in reference. As Fox owned the rights to the soundtrack, there were no issues in using the music.
- The marching sequence references Full Metal Jacket.
