comment |
Zoom, also known by its home media title Zoom: Academy for Superheroes, is a 2006 superhero family comedy film. It tells the story of Jack Shepard (Tim Allen), formerly Captain Zoom of the superhero group Team Zenith. Years ago, an attempt to boost the powers of Jack and his brother Conner (Concussion) resulted in Conner going mad, killing his teammates, and being exiled into a dimensional vortex by Zoom.Thirty years later, a retired and jaded Shepard is called in to train a group of super-powered youngsters, at Area 52. Unbeknownst to him, the real purpose of their training is so they can battle Concussion, who is on the brink of returning to his home dimension.The film is loosely based on the Zoom's Academy children's book series. |

Pom-Pom Girl: Initially subverted, then zigzagged. Three of the four cheerleaders at future superhero Summer's school pick on her with no provocation in her introductory scene. However, in the final scene, Summer has joined the cheerleading squad herself, cheers enthusiastically, and uses her powers to help make a more impressive pyramid. |

Radiation-Induced Superpowers: Larraby's plan to deal with Concussion's return is to juice the kids with Gamma 13, despite the fact that it was being exposed to thirteen times a lethal dose of gamma radiation that turned Concussion into a lunatic in the first place. Played straight with Zoom as the Gamma 13 succeeded in amplifying his speed powers without a hitch. |

Broken Aesop: If the cheerleaders treated Summer horribly before she became a member of the Zoom team, what does it say that they accept her as a member of the team because she has powers that make them look good, dresses like them, is a member of a famous super-team and had a hot boyfriend... or that Summer would even want to become a cheerleader after how she was treated? |

Bullying a Dragon |
| | Zoom: Academy for Superheroes / int_7eb73553 |
comment |
Bullying a Dragon: A lot of the adolescents that bullied superheroes Cindy, Summer and Tucker should've known better. When trick-or-treating, a tough kid bully tries to rob Cindy of her halloween candy. Only to get thrown and stuck up into a tree due to her super-strength. Three cheerleaders take away Summer's lunch tray and insult her to her face for no reason. Summer retaliates by using her superpower to propell the school cafeteria food all over them, ruining their cheerleading outfits. At a water park, one kid makes a snide comment about Tucker's weight, calling him "lard butt". Tucker then jumps into the pool but not before using his superpowers to enlarge his buttocks to cushion his jump into the pool. The bully is then shown screaming under Tucker's shadow and water splashes everywhere, soaking everyone. |

De-power: Zoom thought this had happened to him after exiling Conner. Despair Event Horizon: It's heavily implied that the crushing grief of his brother going mad and proceeding to kill their friends and teammates along with Zoom having to be the one to imprison his brother caused Zoom to be unable to use his powers. |

My Suit Is Also Super: The kids are given specially designed suits that adapt with their powers (though Spencer earlier demonstrated that he had some Magic Pants). |

Writers Cannot Do Math: According to the tracking screen, the pan-dimensional anomaly moves at a speed of 25 MPH. Over the course of twelve days, it should have covered a little over seven thousand miles, meaning Concussion should've emerged somewhere in Europe. |

Expy: Summer almost seems to be a direct copy of Jean Grey. Dylan is suspiciously similar to Sky High (2005)'s Warren in appearance, if not in powerset. Tucker is similar to Bouncing Boy. Cindy is one floppy hat away from being Molly Hayes. |

The Alleged Car |
| | Zoom: Academy for Superheroes / int_f237981e |
comment |
The Alleged Car: Area 52 has an old flying saucer-style UFO lying around that they used as a transport for their supers. The thing malfunctions like crazy, wobbles a lot, can't fly faster than 40 MPH, and even backfires. Summer finally fixes the ship's electronics at the climax and it performs as well as you would expect a proper superhero transport to be. |
