Actor Allusion: When his character is being kicked on the ground and accused of being English, David Tennant angrily shoots back that he isn't English, only to be ignored. Tennant famously played the Doctor with an Estuary accent, which caused some fans to forget that he actually was Scottish. A possibly unintentional case; Tennant also played the Viking Spitelout in How to Train Your Dragon and Dragons: Riders of Berk. Here, he's the son of a wannabe Viking berserker, not too dissimilar from Snotlout.

Adults Are Useless : Large amounts of the comedy, and action, come from the children's reaction to the uselessness of their relatives
