Enchanted is Disney's satirical Affectionate Parody of, well, a Disney movie, specifically the ones that spawned the Disney Princess line. It was directed by Kevin Lima and written by Bill Kelly, and released in 2007.Giselle (Amy Adams) lives in the beautiful animated land of Andalasia, where Genre Tropes abound. She falls in Love at First Sight with the handsome Prince Edward (James Marsden), and they are to be wed the very next day. But his Wicked Stepmother, the Queen(-Regent) Narissa (Susan Sarandon), doesn't want to surrender the throne, so she throws Giselle down a Portal Pool to modern-day, live-action New York City. There she is rescued by Robert (Patrick Dempsey), a divorce lawyer who doesn't put much stock in "Happily Ever After". Prince Edward follows Giselle to New York in hopes of rescuing her, Robert's fiancée Nancy (Idina Menzel) is caught in the middle, and Narissa sends her incompetent henchman Nathaniel (Timothy Spall) in as well in hopes of putting an end to Giselle once and for all.The movie is a Decon-Recon Switch of classic Disney fairy tales, and continuously bounces between both ends of the Sliding Scale of Idealism Versus Cynicism. Either way, though, it's still fun, never cheesy (save the opening, which is supposed to be cheesy), and doesn't take itself too seriously. The hand-drawn animation in this film, as well as how well it won the audiences over, was probably yet another reason why Disney chose to return to producing 2D films on their own.A sequel was announced for 2011, but composer Alan Menken later reported that it had been shelved. July 2014 saw the announcement of another attempt at a sequel under the working title of Disenchanted. In 2020, the sequel was confirmed for release on the streaming service Disney+, and it was eventually released on November 18, 2022. That film's page can be found here. | |

True Love's Kiss | |
Enchanted / int_1777836c | comment |
True Love's Kiss: Giselle's "I Want" Song is even called "True Love's Kiss". It's also played straight near the end of the movie, when, like a good Disney princess, she's hexed to sleep. She needs a Troperiffic True Love's Kiss before midnight (of course) to wake up. Robert, of course, manages to rouse her in the nick of time with a True Love's Kiss. | |

Adoring the Pests | |
Enchanted / int_17e8daa3 | comment |
Adoring the Pests: This movie is all over this trope. Giselle calls the "forest creatures" of New York (cockroaches, pigeons, and rats) to help her clean up Robert's apartment. Hilarity Ensues when he walks in with the creatures still in the place. Morgan also has this viewpoint, as well, to an extent (but not as much as Giselle, of course). Inverted in that most pedestrians find Pip as disgusting as any sewer vermin. | |

Never Trust a Trailer | |
Enchanted / int_19ebe383 | comment |
Never Trust a Trailer: A fairly minor example. The trailer set us up for a Subversion of a standard Big-Lipped Alligator Moment musical number. Turns out it was a Double Subversion. A bigger example: When the announcer says something about Robert having to help Giselle and Edward return to Andalasia "before time runs out", newcomers can easily assume that they will become trapped in New York after a certain number of days, especially since they show the clock striking twelve. The Disney Channel promos for the movie present Giselle trying to get home in time for her wedding, which features Edward getting married to someone else; this is actually spoiling the very end of the movie, where he falls for Nancy instead and Giselle stays in the real world. | |

Enchanted / int_1ce78b96 | comment |
Juxtaposed Reflection Poster: One of the posters◊ has a navy blue strip with the title in gold, cutting the image in two. The upper part depicts a close of Giselle/Amy Adams' wide-eyed face, with New York in the background. The lower part depicts Giselle (upside down) with the same expression but animated, with Andalasia in the background. This immediately establishes the duality of the film's two settings: the animated fairy tale world and live-action New York. | |

Clown Car | |
Enchanted / int_1cfd58fc | comment |
Clown Car: In the beginning, Giselle gets out of her carriage in her wedding dress, and Nathaniel is run over by all the animals that were apparently in the coach with her. Even though her dress is so big, it's hard to tell how she fit in the car herself. One suspects that the coach must be a former TARDIS. | |

Knight in Sour Armour: For all his cynicism, Robert is a fundamentally honorable man who wants to do right by his daughter, and finds himself helping out Giselle almost despite himself. The second time he tries to part ways with her, he watches her from a distance and changes his mind with a tired "Good-grief-I'm-such-a-sap" look. | |

Self-Parody | |
Enchanted / int_1d52b714 | comment |
Self-Parody: Yes, it's a Disney fairy tale film poking fun at how unrealistic Disney fairy tale films are. They also got longtime Disney composer Alan Menken to do the songs for this film, which means that Menken is parodying himself with "That's How You Know" and "So Close"note "True Love's Kiss" and "Happy Working Song" are parodies of songs from the pre-Menken era. | |

Widescreen Shot: When the viewers first enter Andalasia, black bars appear on the left and right sides to make the picture appear as narrow as the movies Disney released during The Renaissance Age of Animation. The picture expands and fills the bars when Giselle crosses through into the live-action world. They never change back after the first transition, even when animated scenes occur. | |

Again with Feeling: Giselle becomes frustrated with Robert's Jade-Colored Glasses and cynicism, and finally shouts that he makes her angry...then giddily laughs and repeats herself as she realizes that yes, in fact, she's angry, switching between giggles and a frustrated tone with joy. It's implied that, as a Princess Classic, Giselle has never even experienced anger—Robert creating that feeling for her makes her realize that she's capable of more than just happiness. | |

What Measure Is a Non-Cute? | |
Enchanted / int_2e528f4e | comment |
What Measure Is a Non-Cute?: Thoroughly deconstructed when Giselle calls the creatures of New York to help her clean Robert's home for him and ends up with an entourage of rats, pigeons, and cockroaches. With a queasy look: "Well...it's always nice to make new friends..." Eventually, she gets along with them just fine "...even though you're vermin." | |

Fantasy-Forbidding Father: Early on, Robert discourages Morgan's interest in fairy tales. He tries to encourage her in more practical dreams, giving a book about real-world heroines such as Marie Curie and Eleanor Roosevelt. It's implied that his divorce has left him disillusioned about love. | |

Actor Allusion | |
Enchanted / int_392372f9 | comment |
Actor Allusion: Ariel has a fish tank where she works. And the office has a Muzak version of "Part of Your World". Also, the little musical cue that strikes up when Paige O'Hara first appears sounds awfully familiar... Her character in the soap opera is named Angela after Angela Lansbury, who voiced Mrs. Potts, while the man she is talking to is named Jerry, after Jerry Orbach, the voice of Lumiere. Posters for Wicked and RENT can be seen in Times Square, both headlined by Idina Menzel. Another poster advertises Hairspray, which stars James Marsden in the film adaptation. Julie Andrews is the narrator for the film. During the "That's How You Know" number, Giselle can be seen running in Central Park and recreating the famous "The hills are alive..." shot from The Sound of Music. And one of the dancers during the same number was Harvey Evans, who also played one of the chimney sweeps during the "Step in Time" scene in Mary Poppins. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
Enchanted / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: The movie often contrasts between the animated world and reality. For example, in the animated opening, Giselle falls from a great height from a tree but is caught effortlessly in Edward's arms (on a horse) and she is unhurt. On the other hand, in New York when Giselle falls from a billboard (a much lesser height) and Robert tries to catch her, he does manage to cushion her fall, but they are both hurt and end up in an undignified tangle to boot. | |

Happily Ever After | |
Enchanted / int_41271766 | comment |
Happily Ever After: Double Subversion. In the beginning, Giselle expects to live happily ever after with Prince Edward, like the standard Princess Classic. Subverted, because her stay in New York raises doubt about her feelings for him and finally she breaks up with him. Double subverted, because, in the end, she marries Robert and forms a happy family with him. Triple subversion, because that's what Nancy wants, and needs a little magic in her life. | |

Four Is Death: The fourth apple that Giselle holds and successfully ate is the poisoned apple. She got better, though. The Big Bad who rises from the sewer portal the fourth time it opens from Andalasia. Not only did she do it ominously, but she wasted no time causing havoc upon arriving. However, she is technically the fifth Andalasian to come out of there since Edward and Pip simultaneously arrived during the second opening. The actual fourth Andalasian to arrive is Nathaniel. Nathaniel does spend most of his time attempting to kill Giselle, so it still fits. | |

Enchanted / int_52d1f46e | comment |
Not What It Looks Like: Giselle, dressed only in a towel, falls out of the bathroom onto Robert. Right when Robert's girlfriend walks in. What makes it worse is that Giselle doesn't help to clear up the misunderstanding (if anything she makes the whole thing sound even more risque'), because she doesn't understand the implication. | |

Enchanted / int_5b6e57e | comment |
Required Secondary Powers: Parodied on purpose. With just the sound of her voice, Giselle can control any animal and induce mass hypnosis in as large a group as she wishes. Why? Because Disney Princesses can just do that, and therefore so can Giselle, or she wouldn't be one. That's why. Likewise, following classic Disney tropes, Pip is agile and intelligent, Nathaniel can disguise into any human bystander, Narissa has the power to transform into a creepy old lady and turn into a dragon, and Prince Edward... is a Large Ham. | |

Four-Temperament Ensemble | |
Enchanted / int_65bc92fc | comment |
Four-Temperament Ensemble: The girls: Giselle is Sanguine (cheerful and emotional without fault), Morgan is Leukine (helpful but somewhat neutral in the grand scheme of things), Nancy is Phlegmatic (generally calm but always focused on work) and Narissa is Choleric (cruel and controlling over everyone). The boys: Robert is Phlegmatic (reserved but awkward in the face of all the fantasy stuff happening), Edward is Sanguine (extremely emotional and relentlessly chipper), Nathaniel is Melancholic (loyal to a fault but deeply insecure) and Pip is Choleric (determined to help Giselle and low in patience). The Andalasians: Giselle is Leukine (the kind but sequestered Damsel in Distress), Edward is Sanguine (a typical Prince Charming who is heroic but emotional), Nathaniel is Melancholic (the loyal but beleaguered henchman to the queen), Pip is Phlegmatic (the dependable pseudo-leader of the animals), and Narissa is Choleric (the "Evil Queen" determined to get rid of Giselle). The four main leads: Giselle is Sanguine (again, almost always chipper and very emotional), Robert is Melancholic (composed but in general not amused by the wackier things happening), Edward is Choleric (determined to find Giselle but very unhappy with the situation), and Nancy is Phlegmatic (fairly reserved and obsessed with work). | |

Fractured Fairy Tale | |
Enchanted / int_6d5ab39e | comment |
Fractured Fairy Tale: The film gleefully skewers many common elements of Disney fairy tale films, notably subverting Love at First Sight and True Love's Kiss. The prince is stuck-up and rather dimwitted, Spontaneous Choreography occurs on the streets of New York, and when Giselle enlists "forest creatures" to clean Robert's apartment, they're rats, pigeons, and cockroaches. When Prince Charming is searching for Giselle, he knocks on an apartment door that is answered by a weary-looking pregnant woman with three small children note a cameo by Pocahontas singing voice Judy Kuhn. She glances at him with only mild surprise and deadpans, "Sorry. You're too late." | |

Armor-Piercing Question: Indirectly, Nathaniel recieves one from a soap opera, where the woman spites the man by haughtily asking "How could I love a man who doesn't even like himself?"

Celebrity Paradox: The scene where Edward rides on the roof of the bus frames him with a poster of Superman Returns, another James Marsden film, in the background. There's also a poster of a musical version of Hairspray, whose film version also has Marsden, but filming for Enchanted probably happened first. Additionally, you can see posters for both Wicked and RENT (The former of which the film's lyricist Stephen Schwartz also composed) in Times Square, two musicals that Idina Menzel (Nancy) is pretty famous for starring in as Elphaba and Maureen. | |

Formula with a Twist | |
Enchanted / int_891aa66d | comment |
Formula with a Twist: This was a live-action Disney film that placed the characters from the archetypical Disney story in the real world, and then poked fun at and subverted many of the standard tropes you'd find in such a story. It was the first major picture by Disney to twist their own formula to this extreme, likely in response to popular parodies like Shrek. It kicked off a series of new films, remakes, and sequels that did similar things to play with these tropes, such as Frozen, Beauty and the Beast (2017), and Maleficent. | |

Refugee from TV Land: The Doylist concept of the film is taking the characters from an archetypical fairy tale story and placing them in real-life 21st-century New York City, but technically and Watsonianly speaking, Andalasia is Another Dimension, not a TV show, animated film or fairy tale book. | |

The Big Bad who rises from the sewer portal the fourth time it opens from Andalasia. Not only did she do it ominously, but she wasted no time causing havoc upon arriving. However, she is technically the fifth Andalasian to come out of there since Edward and Pip simultaneously arrived during the second opening. The actual fourth Andalasian to arrive is Nathaniel. Nathaniel does spend most of his time attempting to kill Giselle, so it still fits. | |

Foreshadowing | |
Enchanted / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Early in the film, Giselle takes an apple that has been bitten and sees if she can use it as the mouth on her mannequin of the Prince. Later, she takes a near-fatal bite of a poisoned apple. Also, in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it example, the blast of fire unleashed in anger by Narissa near the beginning bears the silhouette of a gangly, serpentine-looking dragon. Guess what she turns into at the climax? Also Giselle's mannequin of her dream prince. Its appearance and the outfit it was wearing were really similar to Robert and what he wore to the ball. There's also a deleted scene included on the DVD where Nancy and a co-worker talk about how she's a closet romantic, foreshadowing her and Edward's Last-Minute Hookup. In Times Square, there are posters of shows (see above) that also starred two cast members of this film. And they're your Beta Couple folks! May also double as an in-universe Hilarious in Hindsight. "That's How You Know" may be considered one to Frozen, which would go on to star Idina Menzel as Princess/Queen Elsa, and along with "Fixer Upper", would discuss the risks of falling in love at first sight, as Anna would do with Prince Hans until she saw his scheme to take Arendelle for himself. | |

Enchanted / int_a066d9f3 | comment |
Tempting Apple: When Nathaniel gives Giselle the caramel apple, she doesn't notice that the caramel forms a skull-shaped pattern, and she nearly takes a bite before accidentally throwing it onto a biker's helmet. Later, at an Italian restaurant, Nathaniel brews another apple into a martini, which he claims came from Giselle's secret admirer. Giselle nearly takes a sip before Pip deliberately knocks it out of her hands. Eventually, Narissa decides to poison Giselle herself and offers an apple she claims will erase Giselle's memories of experiencing heartbreak in New York. Giselle finally bites this one, but True Love's Kiss saves her from a permanent death. | |

Award-Bait Song | |
Enchanted / int_a3eae597 | comment |
Award-Bait Song: "So Close", which weirdly enough, is the one song in the movie where the placement makes sense — it's used as the "slow dance" song at a ball. Giselle's magic voice is not necessary! Strangely enough, it's a bittersweet love song — apt for our leading couple but presumably less so for the other dancers, who, while invited to dance with someone they did not come to the ball with, presumably do not have the same unresolved feelings for one another. Despite being the only true award bait song, the film took 3 of the 5 nomination slots in the Best Original Song category at the Oscars. Although it lost to the Award-Bait Song in Once, Enchanted's domination, a year after Dreamgirls accomplished the same feat, made the Academy put a one-song-per-film cap on the nominations. | |

Fish out of Water | |
Enchanted / int_af696bef | comment |
Fish out of Water: Giselle, obviously, although a lot of things are ignored for the sake of keeping the plot on track. This actually gets subverted a bit, in the scene where Edward and Nathaniel are in a motel room, and turn on the TV. Initially, they're doing the traditional 'Fish out of Water' bit, but they fairly quickly figure out how to use it, that it's not tiny people trapped inside, and are even able to use the remote quite well. This is probably how someone who had never seen a TV would react: Alarm, but quick adaptation. They do continue to think of it as a controllable magic mirror, but honestly, that's pretty accurate. Their cultural worldview just pre-assumes magic instead of technology. Similarly, Giselle doesn't know how the shower works but figures it out very quickly without any fuss. She also figures out how to empty the vacuum cleaner via a song verse. | |

Beautiful Singing Voice | |
Enchanted / int_af8dad6b | comment |
Beautiful Singing Voice: Giselle is a Self-Parody of the old-school Disney Princesses, so she sings to her friendly Woodland Creatures and has Prince Edward fall in love with her just by hearing the sound of her voice. Even when she lands in New York her voice remains crystalline, as evidenced by the pests she can convince to work with her ("Happy Working Song") and the Crowd Song she can drum up ("How Does She Know"). | |

Enchanted / int_b8dbbc07 | comment |
Ink-Suit Actor: Obviously, mixing live-action and animation necessitates this, though to what extent it's effective varies: in animated form, Giselle doesn't particularly resemble Amy Adamsnote Though Adams notes that the animators captured her slightly pigeon-toed gait perfectly. Nathaniel is such a spot-on caricature of Timothy Spall that you will know it's him before he even opens his mouth. Edward and Narissa are somewhere in between with their animated resemblances to James Marsden and Susan Sarandon, as is Nancy to Idina Menzel. | |

Shout-Out | |
Enchanted / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: Giselle making a dress out of the window curtains of an angry man's house is likely one to The Sound of Music (or Gone with the Wind). There is an obvious shout-out to The Sound of Music during the Central Park sequence, especially with Giselle throwing her arms out and running and leaping through the grass in "The hills are alive" fashion. Bonus points for Julie Andrews being the narrator. "That's Amore" by Dean Martin plays before the scene in the Italian restaurant, like it did in the opening credits of Moonstruck. There's something eerily King Kong (1933)-esque about Narissa's death scene. Susan Sarandon's make-up should look familiar — she's wearing Frank's face from Rocky Horror Picture Show Meta Shout Out: Robert's first scene involves a divorcing couple arguing over who gets a valuable Hank Aaron baseball card. Hank Aaron played for Milwaukee/Atlanta Braves, who, at the time this movie was made, did their spring training at Champion Stadium, on Walt Disney World property. They have since moved, but a rookie affiliate team of the Braves still plays there. | |

Unusually Uninteresting Sight: Zigzagged. Giselle's initial arrival in New York does get some odd looks (the fact that she causes a traffic accident certainly helps), and Edward's antics with the bus and Pip's appearance in the Bella Notte make the local news... but otherwise their presence (including Pip in another restaurant) doesn't garner a lot of notice. Also, Nathaniel manages to sneak into the latter restaurant's kitchen with only a chef's hat and strike up a conversation with a pot of soup without attracting too much-unwanted attention. Those people in the boats during "That's How You Know" who are ignorant of all the performers crossing the bridge above them. The stable magical portal in Times Square attracts attention... the first time. By the time Nathaniel pops out of it, it's routine; they've fenced it off with traffic cones and the bystanders just want to know who he's looking for. | |

Company Cross References | |
Enchanted / int_d9e48d0 | comment |
Company Cross References: The movie is full of them: The book opening sequence is a shout-out to many Disney classics. When Giselle is looking at the fish tank in Robert's office, a song from The Little Mermaid (1989) plays in the background. Jodi Benson, who voiced Ariel, plays Robert's secretary. While in the Italian restaurant, "La Bella Notte" from Lady and the Tramp plays; the restaurant itself is called after the song. The scene where Nathaniel helps Edward to take his boots off is an obvious shout-out to Beauty and the Beast. Edward also watches a soap opera starring Paige O'Hara, who voiced Belle, while a mysterious-sounding "Beauty and the Beast" motif plays. When flipping through channels, the Latin music during the "Pink Elephants on Parade" sequence from Dumbo is heard. Later, Edward watches the ending of Fun and Fancy Free on television. When Edward hears a news report that lets him know where Giselle is, the reporter's name is a shout-out to the voice actresses of three of Disney's most famous princesses: Mary (Costa, Sleeping Beauty) Ilene (Woods, Cinderella) Caselotti (Andrea, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs). Giselle wears glass shoes to the ball, and the scene where she takes the bite of the poisoned apple mimics the one in Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Narissa herself is a big shoutout to many Disney villainesses, especially to Maleficent; green electricity-based powers, similar outfits, and the fact that she turns into a dragon while bursting in flames. Her poisoned apple plot and Nathaniel reference to the evil queen and the huntsman from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Broadway veteran Harvey Evans, the yellow-jacketed old man from "That's How You Know" previously danced as a chimney sweep in Mary Poppins. There are also several other references to Mary Poppins: Mr. and Mrs. Banks have the same last name as Jane and Michael's parents; the old lady in the park is an Expy of the elderly lady in the "Feed the Birds" song; and Julie Andrews, who had the lead role as Mary Poppins in the 1964 film, is the narrator. The law firm where Robert works is Churchill, Harline, & Smith LLP, after the main songwriters who worked on such early films as Snow White, Pinocchio, and Bambi, Frank Churchill, Leigh Harline, and Paul J. Smith. Prince Edward and Nathaniel stay at the Grand Duke Hotel, which is named after the Cinderella character that hosts the royal ball dance. Nancy’s last name is Tremaine, the same as Cinderella’s stepmother. There's a pop-up tracker solely devoted to this on the Blu-ray disc, of which there are over 100, some of which are so obscure that even most Disney diehards won't catch them without it. According to director Kevin Lima, the actual count is over 1,000. | |

Decon-Recon Switch | |
Enchanted / int_e0113647 | comment |
Decon-Recon Switch: For princess and Disney fairy tale tropes. It drops the classic Disney stock characters (a singing princess with an animal sidekick, a dashing prince and an evil sorceress) into real world New York, quickly showing the harsh differences between reality and fantasy as Giselle finds people unwelcoming and untrustworthy except for Robert and Morgan, and all of her attempts to put her story back on track fail while Edward finds himself actually struggling for the first time. Giselle falling in love and getting engaged to Edward after first meeting is also deconstructed when they reunite, as Robert helped her realise how little they have in common and that she isn't really in love with him. It's reconstructed because the musical scenes are portrayed as genuinely fun for all involved, Giselle's optimism and firm belief in true love help a divorcing couple fall back in love while Robert finds himself becoming less jaded, and by the end many classic Disney tropes such as true love's kiss and the happily ever after are played completely straight. | |

Big-Lipped Alligator Moment: A rare in-universe version. Robert is confused when all of Central Park bursts spontaneously into song during the "That's How You Know". To him, it's a BLAM. His reaction is also a lampshade of the Spontaneous Choreography, since unlike a pure BLAM the sequence also advances the plot. It leads to a romantic make-up gift from Robert to Nancy because of the earlier Not What It Looks Like scene. | |
