• Alternative Character Interpretation: The show could very well be one for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern
• Crowning Moment of Awesome/Funny: The question game.
• Crowning Moment of Heartwarming: After Guildenstern has exploded at Rosencrantz (again), this happens:

ROS (humbly): It must be your dominant personality. (Almost in tears.) Oh, what's going to become of us! (And GUIL comforts him, all harshness gone.) GUIL: Don't cry... it's all right... there... there, I'll see we're all right.

• Ho Yay:
  • There was a messenger. They were sent for. They woke up... together.
    • It's a cold, rainy, Northern Europe country ... during the Little Ice Age. There's a reason the "Xdogs night" term was coined.
  • "I don't feel like stretching my legs." "I could stretch them for you, if you like."
  • Guil giving Ros a cuddle to cheer him up.
  • The fact that their every conversation (that is not existential musings) makes them sound Like an Old Married Couple.
  • The film especially accentuates this trope, with Ros constantly tugging on Guil's arm, trying to get his attention, agreeing with everything he says, throwing his arms around him, etc.
  • Really, it's not surprising given the characters these two were based on.
