Line 2:
* [[Alien Scrappy]]: For several viewers, B.E.N. the robot gave the [[Disney Animated Canon]] its [[Star Wars|Jar-Jar Binks]].
** If not him, then Morph definitely runs a close second.
* [[Angst? What Angst?]]: [[Lampshade Hanging|Lampshaded]] {{spoiler|by Silver when he throws away the treasure to save Jim.}}
{{quote|
{{spoiler|'''Silver''': "Just a lifelong obsession, Jim. I'll get over it."}} }}
* [[Awesome Music]]: Let's just cut to the chase and say ''everything''. [[James Newton Howard]] provides the best Disney score since ''[[The Lion King]]''.
* [[Complete Monster]]: Scroop, the "psycho spider" secondary villain, could belong in this trope, since even among ''other pirates'' he's considered the nastiest villain of all! When Jim Hawkins says so much as one negative thing about him, he makes an attempt on his life. Later on, he gleefully murders Mr. Arrow for virtually no reason at all and makes his death look like it was Jim's fault, and it's pretty clear that Silver is the only thing stopping him from also murdering everyone else. When Silver confronts Scroop for murdering Mr. Arrow, Scroop decides to loudly antagonize Silver over his affection for Jim and tries to get the rest of the crew to mutiny and overthrow him, causing him to renounce his friendship with Jim, which unknowingly sabotages their relationship, in order to keep the crew in order. All of this shows quite clearly the capacity Scroop had for boundless cruelty.
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: The soundtrack is pretty awesome.
* [[Ensemble Darkhorse]]: Captain Amelia, which might be partially due to the apparently major [[The Smurfette Principle|Token Chick]] in the film, considering that there was a severe lack of female characters in the original Robert Louis Stevenson novel.
Line 16:
* [[Launcher of a Thousand Ships]]: Jim has been paired with every Disney girl ever (particularly [[The Little Mermaid|Ariel]]), extending to non-Disney girls like [[The Swan Princess|Odette]] and even anime girls like [[Sailor Moon]] and [[Princess Tutu]]. Ironically he is a [[Celibate Hero]] in the movie.
** He is also shipped a lot with Silver.
* [[Moral Event Horizon]]: We get the idea that Scroop is a nasty guy, but then he proves it even more by {{spoiler|gleefully sending Mr. Arrow to his death via black hole (ironically, black holes are the trope namer) only to turn around and [[Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking|the blame entirely on Jim]]. In the end, Jim sends him [[Karmic Death|tumbling into space in a similar manner]]}}.
{{quote|
{{spoiler|'''Jim''': "Tell him yourself!"}} }}
* [[Spiritual Licensee]]: This is as close as we'll ever come to a ''[[Spelljammer]]'' movie. Or an ''[[The Edge Chronicles|Edge Chronicles]]'' movie, for that matter.
Line 23:
** The musical flashback of Jim's dad abandoning them.
* [[Ugly Cute]]: Morph's basically a wrinklier floating [[Pokémon|Ditto]], but you can't help but go "Awww!" whenever you see him.
* [[Vindicated
* [[Visual Effects of Awesome]]: The Etherium is ''gorgeous''.
* [[The Woobie]]: Jim could easily fall into woobie status, given his [[Disappeared Dad]], stressful home life, and the unbelievable amount of abuse he receives from pretty much every character except Delbert and B.E.N.
