Sky High (film)/Fridge

Fridge Horror

 * The school is responsible for training all of the superheroes the universe of Sky High will have right? That's cool. Then all of a sudden you realise that due to the rather prejudiced social system, as well as certain of their activities, such as "Save The Citizen", they are also responsible for training and inadvertently creating all of their worlds supervillains.
 * While it cannot be proven they are responsible for all supervillains (or, for that matter, all superheroes), the movie does back up this to a certain degree. After all, of all the villains of the movie (even the ones just mentioned), Stitches is the only one not shown to be or have been studying at Sky High.
 * It's more just that anyone with powers goes there when they're a kid. Whether they turn into a supervillain or superhero is up to the student. This would be like saying that real life high schools are "responsible" for "creating" a serial killer who just happened to graduate from school.
 * It is very true that people make their own choices. However it is not at all the same thing as the "serial killer" analogy. No high school has simulations that teach people how to effectively become criminals or killers... Sky High however does run simulations that would unwittingly teach students how to be a supervillain ("Save The Citizen" actually lets a team choose to be "villains" and Warren was put into a position during their match, that could have easily killed him were it an actual life-and-death fight... and almost did even when it wasn't one) if they wished to become one in future.
 * The analogy still holds. Do you blame a gym class's game of softball on the rise of a thief? But the students can choose to steal bases! It is not the school that makes the bully, and the school can only do so much to stop the bully from being such. And, even more-so, a good guy can choose to play the villian because it doesn't show how the civlian gets captured, it's a challenge for the heroes. In a sequel, maybe Will and Warren act as the "villian" to show that they are indeed better than Lash and Speed.
 * Also - Warren's mom is a superhero. His father is an archvillain. Dating Catwoman, or... His father IS said to be one of the worst supervillains out there.
 * If Warren's father raped his mother, he probably would be less upset about him being in prison. Definitely Dating Catwoman.
 * Well, it's actually not explicitly stated that he's upset about his father being in prison. The most we hear is "no-one talks about my father". That could mean that he doesn't like his father being brought up at all, regardless of whether or not his being incarcerated is the context in which the subject is brought up.
 * Eh. Everyone else talks about it way to casually for rape to be the case. You'd think that the adults at least would treat the subject with a little more delicacy. From the way they talk about it, they make it sound less like it was hero being raped by horrible villain and more like mundane divorced parents.
 * That assumes they know about it. Most rapes and sexual assaults allegedly go unreported to the cops.
 * Most rapes and sexual assaults don't happen between two high-profile, publicly-known super-people either. It's clearly common knowledge who Warren's father is. If he's really that bad of a villain, and was willing and able to rape a superhero, why wouldn't he say something about it?

Fridge Brilliance:

 * Every time Gwen Grayson is onscreen, the soundtrack plays a remake of a song from the 1980's...
 * "Save The Citizen" is in fact an awful thing for a supervillain to do. It lumbers right into Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?. It's a supervillain cliche that leads to ample opportunities for the hero to "Save the Citizen". That's why Sky High makes all the supervillains- they make up the things that make them recognisable supervillains- the stupid costumes with ineffective capes, the overelaborate execution schemes,the constant desire to prove yourself against the hero..it all stems from high school sports. The bad people who didn't go to Sky High probably just made money from their powers or committed crimes stealthily with as few people knowing about it. Sky High produces people who want to get back at the people they didn't like from high school.
 * Ron Wilson, Bus Driver being 'highly qualified' seems to just be a running gag but when you think about it, you'd have to be pretty highly qualified to drive A FLYING FUCKING BUS.
