* AlternateAesopInterpretation: The likely original interpretation of the poem was that [[WomenAreDelicate it's good for a woman to be so delicate and sensitive]] that a pea makes her bed uncomfortable. However, another potential interpretation is that the Princess was rewarded for speaking up about what she wanted. While "women should speak up about what they want" is unlikely to be a genuine Aesop from this time period, it works pretty well now.

* {{Narm}}: By the truckload. Standout scenes include the awful CG effects when the stained glass figures come to life and at the end when [[spoiler: Daria runs into Heath's arms, he spins her around, and then sparkles come out of nowhere as a scene transition.]]

** They also attempt to make the climax of Daria going to nap on the bed dramatic with thunder and lightning and an orchestra. But it’s still ''going to take a nap.''

* AllAnimationIsDisney: This film is one of a SLEW of mid-90s-early 2000s animated movies that frequently get lumped in with Disney; it was, in fact, made by Swan Productions.

* TheWoobie: Daria has it pretty hard throughout the film. She's taken from her loving father and raised by mean, lazy pig farmers who she has to take care of, she does all the chores on the farm, sleeps in a chicken coop, has the guy she's in love with ditch her, an angry mob tries to kill her, everyone ostracizes her when she goes back to town, and then her uncle and cousin try to kill her.

** No one said she must be a good person. The task is made for {{Spoiled Brat}}s.
** The LiveActionTV version featured in ''Series/FaerieTaleTheatre'' attempted to "civilize" the morning conversation. She was being polite at first and denied the sleepless night when questioned, until challenged to tell the truth, and then she spilled the beans in a more [[TheWoobie woobieish]] fashion (especially considering that this version also showed exactly what she went through that night).
*** Expanding on this point, some later adaptations of the story have the princess be polite and deny that there was a problem the first one or two nights. Then she either admits that there's something wrong with her arrangements, or the prince and his family come in to actually see the troubles when she fails to come in for breakfast.
** One possible interpretation is that it is better to be honest. Though let's face it; the moral is "it is really good to be a princess." Which sucks for the rest of us.
** The main moral of the story is that "Appearances Can Be Deceiving," when the princess first arrives at the castle, she looks like anything but a Princess. The narrator describes how ''the water ran down from her hair and clothes; it ran down into the toes of her shoes and out again at the heels.'' This is not exactly the elegance that we usually associate with royalty. Naturally, the queen is suspicious and wants some form of proof that this stranger is the 'real princess' she claims to be. After passing the sensitivity test, it's revealed that the girl is who she says she is and the Queen herself learns a valuable lesson on appearances.
** Also in another version, when the princess is questioned the following morning, it's clear from her appearance that she didn't get any sleep, but she politely says she slept fine until the Queen presses the issue enough to get the Princess to admit that she had difficulty sleeping.
** In one film version, the prince and his family check on her, only to find her sleeping on a nearby chair. The Queen deduces she must have been uncomfortable on the mattresses...or that she was too worried about losing the prince to fall asleep...and gives her blessing either way.

** Hildegard turns out to be just as evil and heartless as both her biological parents. Even though Laird uses it as a way to get Rollo to sympathize with her, his (false) explanation for Hildegard being so cruel is because she has to live up to everyone's expectation of being just like her "mother", would've actually worked as a real reason for her attitude. Her "father" Heath constantly tries to get her to act similar to her "mother", and even told his infant daughter he hoped she'd grow up to be just like her mother, so she would've had this pressure on her since she was a baby. There's also the fact that she was raised by both Helsa and Heath, with one teaching her to be kind and selfless and another teaching her to be vain and selfish. This could've lead to her being more a more conflicted person, trying to figure out right and wrong.

** How did Hildegard become evil? Is it InTheBlood, or just the way she was raised? Would Daria have turned out any different if the switch had never happened?
