The Bully | |
K-12 / int_1b60dcba | comment |
"Class Fight". Aside from the fight in the lyrics being completely mundane, it's Cry Baby who attacks the rival girl and has the upper hand all the time, while in the movie, Kelly lunges at her and initially has her on the ropes. | |

Vague Age | |
K-12 / int_7f080f98 | comment |
Vague Age: All of the characters in the movie. The school is called K-12, which in the US is a shorthand term describing children from kindergarten to 12th grade (or, more accurately, kids from ages 6 all the way to 18 years old, making the age range from early childhood to early adulthood). That being said, all the students are played by far older actors (with Melanie herself being 25 at the time of filming), with no real attempt to make them look younger outside of the childlike outfits and general aesthetic of the movie. This can be justified in that, considering the movie's content, having actual kids play it might have been a bit too disturbing. | |

Take That! | |
K-12 / int_b53077b3 | comment |
Take That!: According to Word of God, the song "The Principal" is a thinly veiled one to Donald Trump. "Show and Tell" seems to be one directed at her less pleasant fans—more specifically, the fans who left the fandom and burned her merch due to the allegations of rape against her. | |

Unspoken Plan Guarantee | |
K-12 / int_c82e751f | comment |
Unspoken Plan Guarantee: Near the end, Cry Baby and her friends openly discuss their plan to free the students; soon, their plan goes up in flames. Justified nicely since Leo eavesdropped on them thanks to Sinister Surveillance. | |

Lyrics/Video Mismatch | |
K-12 / int_d0db85d0 | comment |
Lyrics/Video Mismatch: The songs lack the supernatural element of the film entirely, and several sequences in the film don't match the songs they are set to. "Class Fight". Aside from the fight in the lyrics being completely mundane, it's Cry Baby who attacks the rival girl and has the upper hand all the time, while in the movie, Kelly lunges at her and initially has her on the ropes. "Nurse's Office" is about the only place where Cry Baby can be safe in the school because she is being bullied by teachers, the principal etc. The corresponding sequence in the movie is about the school staff brainwashing Cry Baby and Angelita and giving them a Traumatic Haircut. "Detention" is about troubled relationship while the corresponding segment of the movie deals largely with Getting Smilies Painted on Your Soul. The "Teacher's Pet" sequence in the movie is less about Teacher/Student Romance and more about the teacher luring the heedless lovestruck Angelita to dessect her. The forced High-School Dance is set to "Recess" that never mentions dancing or school. | |

K-12 / int_d4871dd | comment |
Love Letter: Ben slips one into Cry Baby's locker. The principal's son Leo takes advantage of the love letter, using it to trick Cry Baby into attending the dance instead of following through with her plan to burn down the school. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending: After setting the students free, Cry Baby and Ben surround the school in a spit bubble causing it to float away and poof out of existence. Lilith appears to take them all home. However, when asked if Cry Baby is going to come along, she hesitates and the movie ends on a cliffhanger. | |
