=== ''Shrek'' film series ===
* [[Adaptation Displacement]]: You probably won't find a lot of people who have even heard of ''[[wikipedia:Shrek!|Shrek!]]'' by Willaim Steig. So much was added to this little story that about the only thing it and the movies have in common is... a grumpy ogre named Shrek, a donkey, and an ugly princess.
* [[Badass Decay]]: [[Subverted Trope|Subverted]] with AU!Puss In Boots. He starts as lazy, fat housecat, but regains his badassery when the time is right.
* [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment]]: Monsueir Hood's appearance in the original movie.
Line 7:
* [[Crowning Music of Awesome]]: The cover of Barracuda. Heck yes.
** That and [[Disney Creatures of the Farce|Snow White's beautiful woodland friends' lullaby suddenly becoming "Immigrant Song"]].
** Jennifer Saunder's cover of [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xApn6r6Olu8 I Need a Hero] may be better than original. Helps that the scene accompyingaccompanying it was totally [[Awesome Moments|awesome]].
** One can't disregard the franchise's main theme [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0KruvKcrD0A Fairytale], a hauntingly beautiful [[Leitmotif]] that still manages to fit with the series' tongue-in-cheek tone.
** Puss and Donkey's cover of "Thank You (Falletinme Be Mice Elf Again)" in the third movie.
