* IKnewIt: Many viewers correctly guessed that [[spoiler:Héctor is Miguel's actual great-great-grandfather]] long before it was revealed. Luckily, this doesn't ruin the enjoyment of the film for most people.

* AuthorsSavingThrow: The first news of this movie was that Disney wanted to trademark the title "Día de los Muertos" for it, which drew a huge backlash from Mexican audiences, including Mexican cartoonist Lalo Alcaraz. Disney quickly retracted the trademark idea...and decided to go with the HireTheCritic approach by getting Alcaraz involved as a consultant. The backlash made a complete 180° turn as the movie became the biggest box office success in Mexican history and Mexican audiences loved it to bits. Disney/Pixar succeeded in turning the backlash into an amazing example of GermansLoveDavidHasselhoff.

* BannedInChina: An [[AvertedTrope interesting aversion]]. Usually, the Chinese censorship board doesn't allow anything with ghosts to get released but they found the movie so moving and the CentralTheme about the importance of family so similar to their culture that they gave it a pass. Their instincts about the cultural similarity were correct as this movie made more in the market than all the other Pixar movies combined.
