Discussed hypothetically. To paraphrase and summarize: "You're asking me to help you decide what pants to wear for deer hunting??? Imagine how sad the deer is gonna be when you shoot him! Do you think he'll care what pants you're wearing?"

Vinnie changes his story on Judge Haller in accordance to his so called “legal” name in order to stay on the case. He later changes his story again when the judge asks him about the name saying he misheard him. However this is done for comedic effect and is not presented in a malicious way.

Characters fretting about prison for several scenes. Played for laughs in a way that gets excessive.

No sexual assault happens, but like the other comment said, it’s used as a joke that the dude thinks he’s gonna be assaulted but he was never actually in danger of being assaulted

in the beginning of the movie, the clerk is shot(we don't see it) but we do see his dead body on the ground. the second time you never see it or even meet the character, but there are protesters outside the prison trying to stop them from using the electric chair on a guy named Norton. in a later shot in the prison, the lights flicker and a character says something like "looks like that guy Nortons gone"

There're scenes where it seems like characters are going to vomit but nothing happens. In particular, one scene involving a nervous attorney during court.

No, but there are an excessive series of jokes about the risk of male-male prison rape (though this is entirely a misunderstanding and there is no risk.)

The transistor of a car is referred as a tr*nnie, which is also a transphobic slur, though it's not used as one.

I don't believe it's addressed in the dialogue, but Vinny and Mona Lisa Vito are played by actors with a large age gap.

Idk why people said no, the main plot of the movie is caused by a dude getting shot and killed, but we don’t see the shooting happening so maybe that’s why
