Right Behind Me: After Donald the monkey insults Joe the lion, Donald does a back flip and catches a quick glimpse of Joe. He then says this trope verbatim. | |

Unnecessary Time Precision | |
Zookeeper (2011) / int_45c361e0 | comment |
Unnecessary Time Precision: In a bid to prevent their beloved caregiver from leaving, the zoo animals talk to him. Griffin, very out of his deep, asks them when they gained the ability to understand and communicate with humans. The monkey, a little bit of a trickster, adopts a pensive pose as if calculating, which is not necessary since they've always been able to do it. | |

Race for Your Love | |
Zookeeper (2011) / int_66805a18 | comment |
Race for Your Love: The last part of the movie, Griffin races (with his gorilla pal, who tried to drive with little success) towards the airport to catch back the woman he realized he truly loved, the veterinarian of the zoo (he thought that they were Just Friends, but realized how much she meant to him while bonding with her at the party which they went together to for Operation: Jealousy). And he manages to catch up to her thanks to the gorilla's great skills at climbing and swinging (applied to an enormous bridge), the film ending with the two animal lovers as an Official Couple. | |

Chroma Key: A few animals (such as the ostrich) were portrayed not by people wearing a costume (such as Bernie the gorilla) or trained animals (such as Donald the monkey and the bears Jerome and Bruce), but by on-set actors wearing blue costumes that could be edited over with the CGI models of the animals. | |

Derailing Love Interests | |
Zookeeper (2011) / int_8dc8a02d | comment |
Derailing Love Interests: It seems that Griffin's old romantic partner turned out to be a shallow choice of a girlfriend - who wanted him to be someone "successful" and not a zookeeper before being seen with him - and was VERY far from being a Friend to All Living Things (she had furniture and items made of all sorts of endangered animals materials, which is pretty much something Animal Lover Griffin wouldn't just stand for.) That's where Love Epiphany kicks in and Griffin breaks it up and races to catch up with his true (not-so-platonic) close friend before she reaches the airport. | |

Brick Joke: Before leaving the zoo to start his new job, Griffin threatens to come to Shane's mother's house and punch him in the face if he finds out that he has been abusing Bernie. Sure enough, before embarking on the final chase, he makes a stop at Shane's mother's house... Subverted, as Griffin settles for giving Shane a swift kick in the torso instead of actually punching him. | |
