** The final scene where the beanstalk grows out of the castle looks especially well made, blending the castle set and its debris rather well.

* CompleteMonster: [[SmugSnake Lord Roderick]], the [[EvilChancellor chief advisor]] of the King of Cloister, [[AmbitionIsEvil schemes for the throne]] and much more himself. Utterly self-aware of his own case of ChronicBackstabbingDisorder and reveling in every moment of it, Roderick has a monk who steals the magic beans he procures tortured before personally murdering him; cuts the safety harness keeping most of the men in his own search party from falling to their deaths when he's climbing the beanstalk; extorts the last bean out of Jack by threatening his life and his uncle's; throws another one of his loyal companions to his death; and, finally ceasing his long trail of betrayal, enslaves the giants of Gantua and commands them to eat his own remaining comrades. With an army of giants, Roderick plans to lay waste to the lower world, conquering first his own kingdom and then the rest of the world.
