** Still on Nancy topic, Morgan is initially afraid to have a stepmother as her knowledge of them is from [[WickedStepmother fairy tales]]. Her fears seems justified as Nancy surname is Tremaine, making her an homonym of Lady Tremaine, the stepmother in the Disney version of ''{{WesternAnimation/Cinderella}}''. But it ends up subverted as Nancy is a NiceGirl. Yet, in 2021, Nancy's actress, Idina Menzel, finally played the part of the (straight) WickedStepmother in the Prime video version of Film/Cinderella2021.

Evil Is Sexy TRS; this has become an objective, in-universe trope.


* EvilIsSexy: Queen Narissa is played by Creator/SusanSarandon - queen of {{Silver Fox}}es - and gets a very flattering gown with prominent cleavage.

* WinBackTheCrowd: Through total happenstance this movie managed to pull this off for Creator/{{Disney}} as a whole. While ''Enchanted'' was to a certain extent a [[TheArtifact remnant of the Eisner era]], its critical and financial success at the time, when at movie theaters Disney was for the most part having to thrive on Creator/{{Pixar}} and ''Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbean'' for any success at the box office, did a lot of favors for the Disney brand as a whole. Even though the film wasn't a Creator/WaltDisneyAnimationStudios production, the fact that it was an AffectionateParody of the tropes of the canon put a spotlight on the studio again that certainly did favors for the films that came out in [[WesternAnimation/{{Bolt}} the same]] [[WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog time frame]] [[WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}} as this movie]]. Who knows if ''WesternAnimation/Frozen2013'' would have been as big as it was without ''Enchanted'' years prior? In an interesting case of combined coincidence and HistoryRepeats, this wasn't even the first time a Disney-produced [[Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit film that combined live-action with traditional animation played a key role in renewing public interest in Disney animation]].

* BaseBreakingCharacter: Queen Narissa. Some people find her a dull, unmemorable villain with generic motives. Others find her a fabulous villain, who gets some hilarious lines.

* BeamMeUpScotty: A random New Yorker is sometimes misheard as having said, "Get the fuck outta here!". He actually said, "Get ''that bus'' outta here!".


Added DiffLines:

* DemographicallyInappropriateHumour:
** One scene involves Giselle [[SuggestiveCollision falling onto Robert]], after taking a shower no less, causing Robert's girlfriend Nancy to [[MistakenForCheating think he was cheating on her]], with the misunderstanding only increasing when Robert says that Giselle isn't married ''yet'' and mentions "grown-up girl bonding time" which actually refers to Nancy (a grown-up) bonding with his little daughter Morgan (a girl), but she took it for a euphemism for sex.
** During the shopping scene, Morgan says that if Giselle wears too much makeup, "the boys" will get the wrong idea, because they're "only after one thing", but no one will tell her what the "one thing" (that's implied to be [[AllMenArePerverts sex]]) is.

Added DiffLines:

* OlderThanTheyThink: The idea of fairytale characters encountering New York City via magic portal had actually been used years prior in the 2000 NBC miniseries ''Series/The10thKingdom''. However, the miniseries veered closer to the Brothers Grimm type of fairytales than the Disney type used in ''Enchanted''.
