* JerkassHasAPoint: When Artie decides to bail out of being king when the responsibilities of such a job are (inadvertently) revealed to him, one of Shrek's responses is effectively "Back to what, being a loser?". While these were harsh words and in context Shrek is just giving the kid the job so he doesn't have to do it, he isn't exactly wrong that Artie is still giving up a chance of a lifetime in favor of going back to a place where he was so [[AllOfTheOtherReindeer unpopular]] even stereotypical nerds bullied him. It's worth noting that Artie never does provide a real counterfeit to this claim besides the fact, he simply doesn't want the responsibilities laid on him.

* {{Bathos}}: King Harold's death is a tragic moment, but there's still a lot of comedic elements present.
** First of all, there's the whole scene in itself, with the simple fact that ''he's a frog''. And during this whole time, [[MilkingTheGiantCow he gestures with his arms up in the air]] pretty ecstatic for someone who is dying.
** He has not one, but two fake-out deaths, not only being jokes about how he evades death for the moment, but also from Puss in Boots having to go back and forth between [[HatsOffToTheDead keeping his hat on and taking it off]].
** During the funeral, not only is the funeral music a ''Franchise/JamesBond'' song, but when Harold's "coffin" is viewed from above after being placed in a pond, it's shown that it is a ''shoe box''.
