Pun-Based Title | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_3eb0f889 | comment |
Pun-Based Title: Besides Ina's name being a homograph with the Tagalog word for "mother", the movie titles are all puns on Filipino profanity. "Ang Tanging Ina" means "The Only Mother", but also sounds like "tangina", short for "putang-ina", roughly "whore for a mother" and used more like the all-purpose "fuck" (partly derived from Spanish "puta"). "Ang Tanging Ina N'yong Lahat" means "The Only Mother To You All" but sounds like "Tangina n'yong ( niyong) lahat", roughly "You all have whores for mothers" or more loosely "Go fuck yourselves, all of you". "Ang Tanging Ina Mo (Last na 'To!)" means "Your Only Mother (This is the Last [movie]!)" but it sounds like "Tangina mo", more fully "Putang-ina mo", "Your mother is a whore" or more loosely just "fuck you". Same goes for "Enteng ng Ina Mo" ("Your Mother's Enteng") which additionally puns on the crossover character's nickname Enteng (from Vicente). | |

Back-Alley Doctor | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_53d45fa8 | comment |
Back-Alley Doctor: Out of bullying from his schoolmates over being uncircumcised,note Having a circumcised penis is considered a rite of passage for Filipino boys, and as such being uncircumcised is culturally stigmatised. Shammy takes matters into his own hands and pays a quack doctor to circumcise him. Needless to say, the circumcision gets botched and Shammy is rushed to the hospital for his injuries. | |

Plot-Driving Secret | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_691672b1 | comment |
Plot-Driving Secret: Ina hides the fact from her children of their family's financial troubles which is the reason why she had to try multiple jobs to avert their situation. If she did not keep this secret, then there's a likely chance that several conflicts in the film may not occur at all. For example, Por would not insists her mother to organize a extravagant début party. Justified because she doesn't want her children to worry. Her job as an entertainer at a stripper club is also a plot-driving device. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: As noted Ina's name is also the Tagalog word for "mother". Her first ten children's name is based on their birth order. Juan - the eldest whose name sounds like "one" Tudis - from "Two this"; Ina'second child Tri - for "three"; Ina's third child Por - for "four"; the fourth child Pip - for "fifth" Six and Seven - self explanatory Cate - Rhymes with eight Shammy - From "siyam" or nine Ten-ten - Also self explanatory | |

Speaks in Shout-Outs | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_6ef186d3 | comment |
Speaks in Shout-Outs: Ina is this, usually spouting catchphrase from other popular Philippine films and series but with her own modifications. She also do this with popular folk sayings in both English and Tagalog. | |

Urban Fantasy | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_bd5e8cd9 | comment |
Urban Fantasy: Basically the gist of Enteng ng Ina Mo where Enteng Kabisote's madcap fantasy adventures cross over Ina and her family's eventful if not otherwise mundane lives. | |

Character Title | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_c23525d4 | comment |
Character Title: The protagonist of the franchise is Ina Montecillo, who is a mother (an ina in Tagalog), but "Ina" (sometimes "Yna") is a plausible given name in real life in the Philippines albeit pronounced differently from the Tagalog term (for the name, the stress is on the first syllable and vice versa). | |

All Part of the Show | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_cf511248 | comment |
All Part of the Show: Inverted meta-example: An explosion during the bus bombing scene in the first film caused audiences in one theatre to panic as the sound effect coincided with loud drilling from a shoe store a floor below. It did not help that one audience member spitefully shouted "Bomb!" according to a news report. Considering the sociopolitical climate and general anxiety over terrorism not long after 9/11, this isn't surprising. | |

Cartwright Curse | |
| Ang Tanging Ina / int_edc22fe8 | comment |
Cartwright Curse: It seems that every man Ina marries inevitably dies in an accident as shown in the intro which showed the deaths of her first three husbands; Tony (who fell from a stool), Alfredo (who fell from a pedestrian overpass) and Kiko (who got electrocuted on her wedding day). At the end of the film, Ina got married with Eddie, who also got launched to the sky by a rocket. Averted, when it was revealed that Eddie survived the ordeal but became sterile. | |
