Cool World/YMMV


 * Animation Age Ghetto: An attempted aversion, which failed thanks to Executive Meddling. The film was still fairly adult, but this time, not in a good way.
 * Ass Pull: At the end of the movie we learn that
 * Crowning Music of Awesome: The theme song by David Bowie.
 * Sex on Wheels
 * Harris and Lonette
 * Ear Worm: The Score Soundtrack. Just give a listen. One of these will likely get stuck in that head of stuck yours so enjoy.
 * Fetish Retardant: Some consider Holli to be over sexualized.
 * Just Here for Godzilla: So Holli Would is from a film, huh?
 * Moral Event Horizon: The moment Holli, it becomes clear that she's not going to get a happy ending, and that she doesn't deserve one.
 * Nightmare Fuel: The more realistic Doodles and the chimera of deranged blackish cartoons that appears at the end.
 * They Copied It, So It Sucks: It doesn't help that this was released only 4 years after Who Framed Roger Rabbit? (Bakshi even said it wasn't an inspiration, but Paramount probably only bought his script because of Roger Rabbit).
 * What Do You Mean It's Not for Kids?: Some people have managed to mistake this for a Roger Rabbit sequel. Boy, they were in for a surprise. Also happened in-studio, as according to Bakshi, "Kim Basinger had meetings with the producer and me, and thought it would be great – halfway through the picture – if she would be able to show this picture in hospitals to sick children… I'm dead serious."
 * What Do You Mean It Wasn't Made on Drugs?: The most popular consideration on the film.
 * They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Despite/Because of how much of an abysmal failure this movie was, it raised a lot of questions that were never answered, the aforementioned Ass Pull and knowing the Executive Meddling, would've unleashed a pack of Voodoo Sharks to rival the end's onslaught of toons if given a sequel. We never know why/how Frank and Lonette hooked up other than an obligatory love interest/PetTheDog, how many guys have been to Cool World since (or even before) Frank arrived since he implied Holli brings men in often, we don't know how often the above Ass Pull has been pulled (or if this explains Lonette's sanity, which just leads to a possible Voodoo Shark, itself,) why/how did the Death by Sex Rule come about when Holli and Lonette seem to be the only doable women in all of Cool World and... basically, when fanfiction writers can come up with better explanations and more compelling stories than what you've given your audience, you've fucked up royally.
 * There is a brief mention at the end when Lonette says something like "Do you remember all of those people who get killed by Doodles? They become Doodles themselves", which indicates that it happens rather frequently. But still...
 * What the Hell Casting Agency: Although he did an adequate job portraying Jack Deebs as a total wuss, Gabriel Byrne isn't most peoples idea of what a gonzo underground cartoonist looks like (think Robert Crumb). Strangely enough, at an early stage in the films development, Brad Pitt was considered for the role of Jack Deebs which would have been totally wrong.
