* BewareTheSillyOnes: Unlike Diablo, Maleficent's goons are quite dimwitted and absent-minded. Then again they capture Prince Phillip with no visible hard effort and when the latter tries to escape they're shown to be effectively dangerous in blocking his path. The only reason why Phillip menaged to escape is because the fairies helped him.

* BerserkButton: Philip is his pride and joy, and apparently Hubert takes any perceived insult against his son very personally. Poor Stefan learns this the hard way as they make plans for Aurora's and Philip's ArrangedMarriage. Stefan says that springing an {{arranged marriage}} onto Aurora just after telling her who she really is and introducing her to her birth parents after being away from each other for 16 years (read: her whole life) being "quite a shock". However, Hubert takes it the wrong way, mistaking Stefan’s aforementioned concern for him having a problem with Philip, leading the two kings into a tense argument to the point that Hubert tries to draw his sword on Stefan. Of course, Hubert was half-drunk at the time, and he calls it off just a minute later, after realizing what he was doing, and they share a laugh.
-->"Shock?! ''My'' Phillip a shock?!"



* HairTriggerTemper: Poor Stefan learns this the hard way as they make plans for Aurora's and Philip's ArrangedMarriage. Apparently hinting that springing an {{arranged marriage}} onto Aurora just after telling her who she really is and introducing her to her birth parents after being away from each other for 16 years (read: her whole life) being "quite a shock" is a grave insult worthy of [[RuleOfFunny declaring war]]. Of course, he was half-drunk at the time, and he calls it off just a minute later after they share a laugh.

* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Discusses this with King Hubert--as it's getting closer to his daughter's 16th-birthday, Stefan points out to Hubert that Aurora was probably raised to be unaware of her status as a princess and, by extension, her ArrangedMarriage to Prince Phillip (which, as shown early on in the movie, is very true). Because of that, Stefan argues to Hubert that, once the Three Fairies reveal the truth to Aurora, the whole thing will probably be end up being kind of a shock to her (and indeed it does).

** In an early scene, where Merryweather proposes [[ForcedTransformation 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]].

Flora points out that Maleficent will doubtlessly be looking for them, so she insists on removing their wings and wands to complete the illusion that they're human peasants.


Added DiffLines:

* HonoraryAunt: Since the fairies' cover story is that Aurora is a foundling child they're raising as peasant women, the princess refers to them as her aunts rather than mothers.


Added DiffLines:

* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Flora and Merryweather specifically. After successfully hiding Aurora for sixteen years--and with only a few hours before sunset, when the timeline of Maleficent's curse will end--Merryweather suggests using magic to clean up their disastrous attempts at a birthday surprise for the princess. Though the fairies do their best to seal up the entire cottage to keep anyone from knowing they're casting spells, they forget the chimney; Flora and Merryweather then get into a silly, magic-flinging argument over what color to make Aurora's dress, which alerts Diablo the raven to their presence. Had the two simply agreed on the color and not gotten into such a petty argument, Aurora would have been safe.

* AdaptationalAttractiveness: Kind of; the evil fairy in the fairy tale is traditionally illustrated as being old and wrinkly, which Maleficent definitely isn't and can be considered an evil fairy variant of HotWitch in earlier scenes. She gets less attractive in later ones, though not in any way ugly.
