* [[Genre Savvy]]: Most of the cast appears to be this, especially the male penguins at the breeding grounds.
* [[Hollywood Global Warming]]: One of the aside scene features some penguins walking on terrain where the snow has melted, and one angrily rants about global warming. Ironically, his yelling causes multiple avalanches.
