History Trivia / OlafsFrozenAdventure

* ActorAllusion: Part of the short has Olaf going door-to-door asking people about their traditions. A character played by Josh Gad who goes door-to-door? [[Theatre/TheBookOfMormon Why does that sound familiar?]]

* PreviewPiggybacking: This trope was zig-zagged depending on what the movie was shown before in the country it was released in: when it was played in most countries with ''Coco'', people did not enjoy the short because they were anticipating the actual movie. In the United Kingdom, however, it was shown with the annual re-release of ''Frozen'', causing most people to only stay for the short as the movie is something that they could've watched at home.

** The fandom generally already assumed Arendelle was a part of Norway, this along with the criticism mentioned in the YMMV page gave Disney reason to just make it official.

* DuelingWorks: With ''WesternAnimation/TrollsHoliday'', which aired on TV the same week this special was released into theaters. Despite doing well at the box office with [[WesternAnimation/{{Coco}} the movie it was paired with,]] many people, both ''Frozen'' fans and normal viewers, despised the short because it focused on Olaf instead of Anna and Elsa and was way too long for a theatrical short, with some people either refusing to see ''Coco'' or arriving to showings of the film late in order to avoid the short. Also, while the merchandise for this special sold well at Disney Stores, the non-Disney Store merchandise isn't doing as great as the ''Trolls Holiday'' merchandise or the merchandise of fellow Disney franchise ''Disney/{{Moana}}''. This caused ''Trolls'' to reign victorious.

* PlayingAgainstType: ''Creator/JohnDeLancie'' plays a character in the short, one who only says a few lines before leaving with his wife. This character isn't a snarky AntiHero like [[Series/StarTrekTheNextGeneration Q]] or [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Discord]], but a normal human.
