Disney Fairies/Headscratchers


 * There are several pieces of art on Lizzie's wall that are clearly beyond her skill as an artist. Where'd those come from?
 * Books maybe. Or maybe she just spent more time on them and used better art tools than a crayon.


 * In Fairy Dust & The Quest For The Egg, Captain Hook cannot see the fairies because he is an adult. (According to Gail Carson Levine adults cannot see fairies.) Whut? A major plot point in Disney's continuity depended on adults being able to see fairies - it was Tinker Bell who betrayed the location of Peter Pan's hideout to Captain Hook, and he obviously had no trouble seeing her.


 * How come in the first movie when Tink's trying to be an animal talent fairy they give her the shy scared out of its wits baby bird? The first one looked like it was willing to jump out of the nest even without a fairy there, why not have her work with that one while an actual animal talent gets the hard one? And while we're on the subject, teaching baby birds how to fly? They couldn't of come up with something for her to try that wasn't, you know, deadly?


 * In Tinker Bell and the Lost Treasure, when Tink doesn't get her daily ration of dust, she's stuck with walking. In Tinker Bell and the Great Fairy Rescue, not only is she still able to fly after a day without her ration, she has enough to spare to let Lizzie fly.
 * Possible Fridge Brilliance? Isn't it said/implied at the end of "Lost Treasure" that this is one of the largest amounts of pixie dust to be made at one time? "Over a million smidges IIRC". Maybe because there's a little extra, the fairies going to the mainland get extra pixie dust since they're going to be leaving Pixie Hollow.


 * Why is the art in this so.. good compared to other CGI productions, especially for this demographic? Did someone dig up the Peter Pan artbooks or something? There's none of the typical major facial deformity utilized in everything else done in CG since ReBoot (Tangled aside, maybe it's a Disney thing?)
 * John Lasseter is the exec producer of all the Disney Fairies stuff. That tells you everything you need to know.
