| 1 | * AbilityOverAppearance: David Jason's enthusiastic performance as Rincewind made up for the fact that he was shorter, stouter and about 35 years older than his character. |
| 2 | * ActorAllusion: The way [[Creator/SeanAstin Twoflower]] says "[[MemeticMutation PO-TAY-TOES]]" can only be this. |
| 3 | ** Likewise, when he is rushing up the wizard's tower stairs, sword in hand, he stops and says [[Film/TheLordOfTheRings "You know, I've always wanted to do this sort of thing."]] |
| 4 | * DyeingForYourArt: Although the Agatean culture hasn't been established yet, Sean Astin's Twoflower is still shown to have black hair in this version. |
| 5 | * OldShame: Terry Pratchett made it quite clear that on retrospect he was not at all happy with his earliest books, with both ''Color Of Magic'' and ''Light Fantastic'' the ones he felt aged the worst. He found his inexperienced writing resulted in the references being ploddingly inserted and characters that were overall unlikeable and shallow. Pratchett would often comment that if he could he would rewrite both books, which may be why the live-action adaptation was so different from the books. |
