Jingle All the Way/YMMV

• Crowning Music of Awesome: The heroic Turboman theme is actually pretty cool when played live during the parade.
• Family-Unfriendly Aesop: Buying your kids toys they want, even if you have to go through hell, is the best way to show you love them.
  • Not all that family unfriendly, actually. Going through great pains for one's children is something any parent can identify with, and Jamie wound up giving the toy to someone else. The film was actually very anti-materialism in the end.
    • Unless you consider the fact that, after the end credits, Howard's wife was expecting him to get her something as well. Subtlety hypocritical, much?
• Harsher in Hindsight: A bomb turns out to be in one package going though the mail.
• Memetic Mutation: "Put dat cookie daughn! NAUGHH!" Thank Swede Mason for the mix.
  • Less memetically, "It's turbo time!"
• Narm: Most of the son's lines, due to Jake's wooden acting.
  • Also, Howard's wife gets a very narmy scene. The line itself is simply "damn you, Howard," but it really cannot be stated how terrible the delivery is.
• Retroactive Recognition: Ahnold's son is Anakin Skywalker.
• So Bad It's Good: Don't take it too seriously, and you just might enjoy this one.
