Catchphrase has been disambiguated.


* CatchPhrase: Defictionalized!Anna likes to use the word "stinker." She uses it precisely once in the movie, but several times here.



* ChildrenAreSpecial: Downplayed example--it's the love of children that brought Elsa/Anna here in the first place.

This or these examples of Surprisingly Realistic Outcome seem to violate at least one of these rules, which disqualifies them: No character reactions (characters get angry, don't forgive, don't change their personality instantly, etc.); Too fantastical (depends on the properties of magic, powers, sci-fi tech, monsters, etc.); Not surprising (a character was warned about the outcome, it's used to provide Karma or An Aesop, or it simply follows normal conventions for this genre or medium); Plot happens (the example only describes an event, but not why audiences would expect a different, unrealistic outcome); Not an outcome (a character just explains why something wouldn't work as expected, or something is just an innate aspect of the setting or character that has a logical reason for being present); More of a Deconstruction (the event has major, lasting effects on the plot, make something more realistic, but not completely realistic, or a parody/fanwork applies realistic consequences to the events of a different work); or fits better under a different trope. See the trope's definition for more details. If you believe a removal was a mistake, please bring it up in the cleanup thread.

Removed tropeslashing. I think The Future Is Shocking is more about culture shock / Values Dissonance, so that's the one I left blank, but I'm not sure.


* FishOutOfTemporalWater[=/=]TheFutureIsShocking: ''Frozen'' takes place [[WordOfGod somewhere in the 1840s]], so when Elsa and Anna experience TimeTravel that brings them to 2013, things are a little different. Women wear trousers (pants)! Carriages don't need horses anymore (cars)! Paintings move (movie/video)! Reactions to these things vary. The Defense Minister of Norway exploits this trope with Hans--and even lampshades the notion of a villain "straight out of a Disney movie," thinking a good show of force might dissuade him from whatever attack he is trying to plan without actually having to fire a shot.

* CurbStompBattle: Averted. Weselton's hired goons turn tail and run when they cross paths with a [[UsefulNotes/YanksWithTanks US carrier battle group]]. If they hadn't though, it's likely this would have resulted.



* FailedASpotCheck: Parents at "Frozen: As Real as It Gets" insist on carrying their gadgetry past signs that say "NO TECHNOLOGY PAST THIS POINT." Predictably, like everything else that got too close to whatever magic caused this, said gadgets disappear.



* IBelieveThatYouBelieveIt: The Orlando Chief of Police says this verbatim to Defictionalized!Elsa regarding her insistence that a) Arendelle exists and b) she is not from his world.

Creates a lot of reversed AsYouKnow--the ''audience'' knows what smartphones, cars, and planes are but Defictionalized!Anna does not, so the {{Exposition}} serves for her benefit in-universe. Somewhat PlayedForLaughs.
* ThisIsReality: Amber Gordon, manager of The Old Trunk, discusses the trope with Defictionalized!Anna--basically, you're not supposed to exist because in our reality you're fictional. Defictionalized!Elsa also gets this treatment from a prison guard--"Sure you haven't been watching too many Disney movies?" when the former asks how to get to Arendelle.
* UnfazedEveryman: Downplayed, but a growing number of people begin to accept that Defictionalized!Elsa may actually be supernaturally-powered and it doesn't really bother or confuse them. Chelsea, the daughter of the Orlando Chief of Police, has absolutely no problem with Elsa being magical.
* UnusuallyUninterestingSight: Played with. Defictionalized!Elsa's ice and snow are hardly ignored, but it remains isolated enough to not merit categorization in MundaneFantastic but it's too frequent for MagicRealism. Outright subverted when Defictionalized!Anna catches attention in a random diner--she sticks out ''and people notice.''
* VillainyFreeVillain[=/=]PlotIrrelevantVillain: Downplayed example--none of the Princess cast members like Rafe Reynolds, but aside from being mentioned in that context he never actually makes an appearance.
* WickedWitch: How the Duke of Weselton presents Elsa to his people to justify attacking Arendelle.

Added DiffLines:

[[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/10978513/1/Unfrozen Unfrozen]] is an ongoing Disney/{{Frozen}} fic by [[https://www.fanfiction.net/u/2734141/ SovereignGFC]] that asks what would happen if Anna and Elsa ended up in [[RealLife our world]] shortly after the film's release in 2013.

* Adorkable: Practically mandatory considering Anna's canonical personality. Also fits Chelsea's reaction to Elsa.
* EverytownAmerica: Where Liz and Sasha Jamison hail from, heavily implied to be somewhere in the Midwest or heartland due to travel time from their home to Florida.
* [[invoked]]LifeImitatesArt: The whole point of this fanfic--the PowerOfLove somehow made real what was fictional.
