Line 4:
** The Cajun fireflies are stereotyped with missing teeth and being "simple". Ray's subplot makes him look like a [[Cloudcuckoolander]], though the whole thing is about him being a firefly and has nothing to do with his ethnic group. And of course, [[The Cuckoolander Was Right|that worked out for him in the end.]]
** Averted with most of the white characters. They're noticeably wealthier and more privileged than Tiana and her family, but they're not depicted as arrogant.
* [[Alas, Poor Villain]]: [[Complete Monster|Not that he doesn't deserve it]], but it's hard noteasy to feel bad for Facilier when {{spoiler|his "[[Eldritch Abomination|Friends]]" turn on him}}, if only because of how incredibly scared and pathetic he is.
* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: Besides the return of traditional animation to Disney, the casting of Keith David as the movie's villain sold a lot of people on seeing the movie. There were also plenty of teenagers and vicenarians that were easily elated at the announcement of that movie as a return to Disney's magical roots after lamenting about the tween-oriented direction the company seemed to have taken over the past several years, claiming it to be irreverent toward [[Walt Disney]] 's standards on how he wanted to run the company in the first place.
* [[Artistic License Religion]]: Actually a rare invoked example - Disney didn't want to use any ''actual'' symbols for fear of offending real life practitioners of Voudou (or summon any evil spirits.) They essentially give a bit of this since Dr. Facilier and Mama Odie appear to practice magic and call it "Voodoo", however give Facilier a little bit of credit - he says "I got voodoo, I got hoodoo, I got stuff I haven't even tried", implying he (and the writers) are well aware that "Voodoo" isn't just a catch-all-term for folk magic.
