* AllUpToYou: The Three Good Fairies are arguably an {{inver|ted Trope}}sion, as they are constantly the heroines who do the saving, despite being treated as if they were sidekicks.
* AscendedExtra: An interpretation of how the fairies are in this work. In the original fairy tale, the good fairies just serve to "build up" the princess, while the bad fairy is a DiabolusExMachina.
* BigEntrance: A fanfare and an announcer declares "Their Most Exulted Excellencies, The Three Good Fairies!" as they arrive on a sunbeam with sparkles.
* BrickJoke: The pink Flora and blue Merryweather, as they decide to use magic to prepare for Aurora's birthday party, have an arguement where they keep magically changing Aurora's dress from Flora's preferred pink to Merryweather's preferred blue and back again, a commotion that leads to the raven finding out where they live. [[spoiler:When Aurora and Phillip dance in the courtyard after they marry, Flora and Merryweather (watching with Fauna from a balcony) are still waving their wands and changing Aurora's dress colors alternately from Flora's pink to Merryweather's blue. The dress is still changing color in the ending as the camera pans out of the moving storybook pictures of the prince and princess dancing.]]
** Another example in an early scene, where Merryweather proposes [[BalefulPolymorph turning Maleficent into a fat old hoptoad]]. The others chide her, [[AsYouKnow reminding her]] that their magic can only bring joy and happiness. Merryweather snidely responds that it would make ''her'' happy. From this we're to take it for granted that the fairies can't use any offensive magic. Until one of the final scenes, where Merryweather turns the raven to stone, which she shouldn't have been able to do, except that [[SemanticSuperpower she was quite satisfied with the result]].

!!Prince Phillip
''' Featured in 1959's ''Disney/SleepingBeauty'''''

Arguably the first ''pro-active'' Disney Prince and certainly the mould from which later Disney male protagonists would draw from, Prince Phillip has been a fan-favorite since he first appeared on screen.

* BadassCape
* BadassNormal
* BoundAndGagged: Maleficent has him bound in chains and locked up after he comes looking for Aurora, then to him known as Briar-Rose.
* TheCharmer: A friendly version. He is shown to be able to manipulate others to do things for him, such as when he goads his horse to find Aurora in the woods and when he is able to get King Hubert to agree to his desire to marry the ''peasant girl'' he met in the woods.
* TheDeterminator: Give the guy some credit, not even an all-powerful sorceress [[OneWingedAngel turned fire-breathing dragon]] stands in the way of him waking up his princess. Even if the faeries do most of the work.
* DistressedDude
* MrFanservice
* HeroicBuild
* MarryForLove: Wants to marry for love as opposed to for station, as he tells his father King Hubert.
* NiceHat
* NonHumanSidekick: His horse.
* OfficialCouple: With Princess Aurora.
* PerfectlyArrangedMarriage
* SatelliteLoveInterest: Despite his ''pro-activeness'', Prince Phillip usually has everything done for him by the three good fairies except for the final kiss to wake Aurora.

* BadassCape: Well, cloak, but still.

-->'''WebVideo/TheNostalgiaChick:''' She kidnaps Aurora's boyfriend and, instead of killing him, plans to keep him until he's old and decrepit while Aurora's [[RipVanWinkle sleeping self]] is still young and perfect, and [[FridgeHorror only then will he be able to be with his one true love]]. When [[FateWorseThanDeath he's old and shriveled and can't get it up any more anyway]]. Now ''that's'' evil.
