Enchanted/YMMV

• Award Snub: Three songs earned nominations for the Best Song Oscar. Hence, the vote got split, and "Falling Slowly" from Once won the statuette.
  • Reviewers of the movie said Amy Adams deserved a Best Actress Oscar, but she did not receive a nomination.
• Ear Worm: Just try to get that theme song out of your head...
• Family-Unfriendly Aesop: Probably unintentional, but it's A-OK to break off a long-standing relationship to marry a girl you've known a week. Which adds more fuel to the Parody/Not a Parody fire -- isn't that kinda how all Disney romances go? How many of the Disney Princesses know their princes for much longer than that before the Happily Ever After?
  • Well technically, Nancy ran off with Edward and we never really know how long Giselle and Robert date before marrying. They're together in the montage, but then two characters have published books and Giselle is running a fashion business, so yeah...
• Hilarious in Hindsight: There is a poster for Superman Returns in Times square when Edward first arrives. This was originally a reference to James Marsden's role in the film but becomes humourous now that Amy Adams will be playing Lois Lane in the next film. For extra points, James Marsden originally played Lois' husband.
• Nausea Fuel: The "Happy Working Song", especially when the rats are cleaning the toilet with toothbrushes.
• Strangled by the Red String: Deconstructed and played straight. The Aesop of the film is that this is impossible... and then it hooks up two characters at the last minute. Hmm.
  • Possibly justified in that showing that love still takes many paths, although it's an exception rather than the rule in reality as the film cheerfully shows under its premise.
  • There's also a hint that love works differently in animation. Robert and Giselle may have spent weeks or months getting to know each other, while Nancy is marrying Edward before her phone's battery has completely run out(!)
  • Well, it is a parody, so the whole last-minute-hooking-up was probably meant to poke fun at how many of the early Disney princesses got Strangled by the Red String.
• Tastes Like Diabetes: The first three minutes. That was supposed to be a parody of things that taste like diabetes.
