Lemonade Mouth: Difference between revisions

* [[Angsty Surviving Twin]]: Charlie, in the book (see "Disneyfication" below).

* [[Anguished Declaration of Love]]: Played with; she doesn't say it outright, but Olivia makes it clear to Wen that her feelings for him are the reason she's with Lemonade Mouth.

* [[Asian Airhead]]: Blown all the way to hell and back by Stella, who is visionary, leader and driving force of not only Lemonade Mouth, but in the effort to give the students a voice, and {{spoiler|the one who gets Mel to build the music hall for the school.}}

* [[Badass Creed]]: '''Be Strong, Be Heard, Be Proud!'''

* [[Fan Service Pack]]: Mo's outfits whenever she's on stage (or away from her [[Overprotective Dad]]); the entire band {{spoiler|at Madison Square Garden}}. Averted by Scott, as he's always dressed that way.

* [[Film of the Book]]: With a little alteration, mostly the names.

** [[The Hero]] - Olivia is the lead singer, but she acts more like the [[The Lancer]].

** [[The Lancer]] - Stella is lead guitar, so you'd think she'd be this, but she acts like [[The Hero]].

* [[Former Teen Rebel]]: The principal.

* [[Freudian Excuse]]: {{spoiler|Olivia's breakdown comes from the death of Nancy (her pet cat) is because Olivia sees it as the last living part of her dead mother.}}

* [[Good Is Not Dumb]]: Mo, towards Scott.

* [[Hair of Gold]]: Olivia, Charlie's female fan.

* [[Heroes Want Redheads]]: Olivia's attraction towards Wen; it really shows when he comes over to Olivia's house and she shows him her songs, and when she admits that he's the only reason she even got involved with the band.

* [[Heroic BSOD]]: Olivia suffers this on stage at Rising Star (arguably, it's the entire band that does), and has one averted just before their first performance.

* [[Hidden Depths]]: You can find this all throughout the members of the band.

* [[Hollywood New England]]: The book takes place in a fictional town in Rhode Island (not [[Family Guy|Quahog]]).

* [[Hope Bringer]]: Stella takes this [[Up to Eleven]] at the pep rally.

* [[I Am Becoming Song]]: "She's So Gone".

* [[I Can't Believe a Guy Like You Would Notice Me]]: Mo's reason for not committing to the band at first. [[Double Standard|Scott's attitude about 'his music being important to him']] changes her mind.

* [[Insult Backfire]]: Ray {{spoiler|calls Stella 'lemonade mouth' after she stops a fight between him and Charlie by spitting a mouthful of lemonade into his face}}. That's how the band got its name.

* [[Ironic Echo]]: When Scott finds out that Mo is in Lemonade Mouth, he tells her that if she wants to be in a band, she can play backup guitar for him (in Mudslide Crush). Fast forward to the last line of the film, {{spoiler|when Olivia says that she hopes their new guitar player (Scott) can keep up... and we see Scott playing backup guitar for them.}}

* [[Jerkass]]: The principal, with his school sponsorship deal and uber-conformist attitude. Don't forget Ray. My goodness, Ray.

* [[Jerk With a Heart of Gold]]: At least the principal started to lighten up at the end.

* [[Jerk With a Heart of Jerk]]: Ray called dibs on this trope.

* [[Large Ham]]: Stella. Three words: ''"WE DO MATTER!"''

* [[Middle Child Syndrome]]: played with in Stella's case, as she's actually the oldest child.

* [[Misfit Mobilization Moment]]: Lemonade Mouth's performance at the Halloween dance.

* [[Ms. Fanservice]]: Mo, when she's on stage.

* [[Oh Crap]]: The principal's reaction as Lemonade Mouth begins " Here We Go".

* [[Overprotective Dad]]: Mo's dad, almost to [[Papa Wolf]] levels.

** That is [[Ambiguously Gay|unless...]]

* [[Parental Abandonment]]: Olivia lives with her grandmother {{spoiler|because her mom died and her dad's in jail.}}

* [[The Power of Friendship]]: This trope is what keeps the band going, as evidenced by the song "More Than A Band".

* [[The Power of Rock]]: The secondary message of the film - that a good rock band can change the world.

* [[Pretty Fly for A White Guy]]: Played with, {{spoiler|as aside from the rapping, Wen comes across as a normal, average suburban kid with average problems}}. Also played with in the case of {{spoiler|Stella, in that while she wants to be special and an individual, she also wants her family to love and accept her, regardless of what she's into or does}}.

* [[Punctuated for Emphasis]]: ''We'' - '''DO''' - ''matter!'' '

* [[Recycled in Space]]!: It's ''[[The Breakfast Club]]'' AS A MUSICAL!

* [[Redemption in The Rain]]: Inverted. The band's lowest point, {{spoiler|- getting arrested and losing the lemonade machine at the same time -}} comes during a rainstorm.

** Confirmed by [[Word of God]] that the song was modified to better reflect Mo and Scott's relationship.

* [[The Runner Up Takes It All]]: Olivia says that they didn't won Raising Star, the last scene of the movie shows them {{spoiler|playing at Maddison Square Garden.}}

* [[Serious Business]]: ''Do not'' mess with the lemonade machine. However, [[Your Mileage May Vary|some fans]] would note that most of their annoyance has to do with the fact that the machine is being removed to further the principals favoritism of the jocks over other students, which is a legitimate thing to take seriously. Also, as far as the principal is concerned, ''do not'' step out of line.

* [[She Is All Grown Up]]: Mo, in the eyes of her [[Papa Wolf]]. [[Inverted Trope|An interesting inversion with Scott]], as he sees that she's grown into an equal as a ''musician'', and ''in their relationship''.

* [[Signature Song]]: ''Everyone'' in the film knows the song "Determinate".

* [[Soapbox Sadie]]: Stella lives and breaths this trope.

* [[The Southpaw]]: Hayley Kiyoko (who plays Stella) appears to be left-handed.

** Which makes it [[Fridge Logic|awfully convenient]] that there just happened to be a lefty guitar in the music/detention room...

* [[V Formation Team Shot]]: Played with in the principle's office, as the poses range from Stella's [[Asskicking Pose]] to Wen's [[Rebel Relaxation]], Mo's ''standing'' [[Pose of Supplication]], and Charlie and Olivia's [[Cower Power]].

* [[Vocal Tag Team]]: Even Charlie has his [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEb3qX5Hvus moment.]

* [[Whole Episode Flashback]]: The film is this, from Olivia's point-of-view {{spoiler|as she authors a letter to her father.}}

* [[X Meets Y]]: ''[[The Breakfast Club]]'' meets ''[[High School Musical]]''.
