* DemotedToExtra: Donner, Coach Comet, the Elf Foreman, and King Moonracer are given a much smaller role this time around.
* FirstPersonPeripheralNarrator: Like with Sam the Snowman, Scoop P. Snowman acts in this manner, popping up only on occasion to continue feeding information to the audience about the plot. Unlike Sam, however, he only gets to sing one song.

* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: Queen Camilla is established to be just as proper as King Moonracer (albeit after an initial misunderstanding). She not only helps Rudolph and Hermey fix the Toothmobile, but even offers to surgically alter Rudolph's nose to normal, even giving him time to think on it. [[spoiler: When he turns down the offer, she is completely understanding]].
* TheToothHurts: How the film's plot is set into motion, thanks to King Moonracer developing a major toothache.
* TookALevelInKindness: Santa is much more mellow and nicer this time around than he was in the original special, being far more supportive of Rudolph than he used to be.
* YouDontLookLikeYou: [[AvertedTrope Averted]] compared to the other specials, which used newer models (courtesy of most of the originals being trashed after filming finished). This time around, the characters look exactly as they did in the original specials, albeit rendered in CGI rather than stop-motion models.

This movie contains examples of:
* AesopAmnesia: The previous two sequels saw Rudolph not only very proud of his nose, but completely devastated if it ever went out. Here, he conveniently forgets such a lesson, and is still ashamed of his nose, though in this case it's because of the celebrity it brings him and not because it's making him a target for bullying.
* CallBack:
** Charlie in the Box, Dolly, and the Spotted Elephant are amongst the kidnapping victims of the Toy Taker. Charlie even specifically mentions how he used to be a resident of the Island of Misfit Toys until Santa found him a home.
** When Rudolph considers surgically altering his nose to be more normal, Hermey asks him if that's wise, considering another foggy Christmas Eve could possibly occur.
* CanonDiscontinuity: Ignores the events of WesternAnimation/RudolphsShinyNewYear and WesternAnimation/RudolphAndFrostysChristmasInJuly, treating it as a direct sequel to the original special.
* DeadpanSnarker: Queen Camilla has shades of this. For example, when Heremy warns Rudolph about getting a surgery on his nose to make it normal, he questions the possibility of another bad storm on Christmas Eve.
-->'''Queen Camilla''': Santa can't afford headlights, darling?
* IJustWantToBeNormal: Rudolph's motivation in the movie. Having gotten tired of being treated like a celebrity at the North Pole, he considers Queen Camilla's offer to surgically alter his nose to be a normal, non-glowing one. Heremy and Clarice urge him to stay as he is, for they care for Rudolph just the way he is. He ultimately decides not to go through with it in the end.
