* OffModel:
** The uncut version has more of it, such as Gaston going through a table at one point. Although in both versions, you can see a man in one background growing larger, and Meanstreak receiving a wallet with an extra hand for a second.
** When the third class passengers break through the Gates, two of them aren't animated properly and end up marching in place.
** On the DVD cover, William is sporting a look and hairstyle that looks very much like Leonardo [=DiCaprio=], while in the actual film he doesn't.

* IWasQuiteALooker: Victoria claims to be this, explaining why she'd have a party dress in Angelica's size. We never actually see evidence of this, though. And of course this brings up some major FridgeLogic: why would Victoria, who looks to be quite elderly, have a dress from her youth (presumably the 1880s) that's very much in keeping with 1912 styles?

** Angelica, her stepmother Gertrude, and her stepsisters are obvious Cinderella knockoffs and Angelica herself has been compared to Don Bluth's WesternAnimation/{{Anastasia}}. Likewise, fittingly enough, Gertrude's cat Jeffrey is quite similar to Lucifer.

He doesn't look or act anything like Disney's Gaston, and none of the other Captain Ersatz es were directly named after the characters they were based on.

Removed some bashing/complaining and a misused example


* CaptainObvious: In the uncut version, when the ship is sinking: "We're on a ship in the middle of the ocean." More of laziness from the film makers. That same line was used earlier, when the Nanny points out to William that the girl he is looking for can't just disappear as "We're on a ship in the middle of the ocean!" Could be an attempt at an IronicEcho, if it weren't such a terrible line.

* MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext: It's hard to overstate just how completely out of nowhere "Party Time" is. It's about ten minutes into a film which has given zero indication of being a musical in the first place. And the song is not set up at all. Fritz just responds to Maxie thanking him for saving his life by launching into a song. The fact that it's in a musical style that wouldn't be invented for another six decades just adds even more layers of ridiculous.



* SpaghettiKiss: Sort of. We see the Dalmatians sharing link sausage in the "Mucho Gusto" scene. We don't actually see them kiss, but it's pretty obvious it was meant to invoke this trope. There's a good chance that they didn't know how to animate dogs kissing, so they just gave up.

* AluminiumChristmasTrees: The use of the word "legend" in the title, combined with the ridiculous LighterAndSofter treatment of a tragedy, has led to speculation that the producers may have thought that the ''Titanic'' story is fiction. This might be more of a BlindIdiotTranslation problem, though, since the Italian word ''leggenda'' can mean "legend" in the sense of "tale passed down from previous generations." Not that it excuses the rapping dog and the mice wearing sombreros, of course.

The one exception is Molly's gown, a strapless, backless number that looks more suitable for a modern cruise ship than anything from a century ago. There's also the rapping dog, who wears a jersey (with the letter T on it, even) and a baseball cap.

Loads And Loads Of Characters is no longer a trope


* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: The film simply has far too many characters to work with. Some characters such as the Cruella de Vil-lookalike and the Stepmother are virtually interchangeable and there are at least 5 dogs in the cast (historically, only 3 dogs actually survived the actual sinking, none of them being the breeds in the film). This along with an incoherent plotline leads to a [[{{Pun}} shipwreck]] of a movie.

* WhatSongWasThisAgain: The song sung by the Mexican mice in the uncut version (apparently called "Mexicana") has rather poetic Spanish lyrics talking about a "big party with friends" and a "magical night", but the refrain is grimly ironic given the ForegoneConclusion about what's going to happen to the ship--"On a night like this, nothing can go wrong; Everything will be perfect...we will never forget this night." In contrast, the recut's English equivalent "Mucho Gusto" is a much more frivolous ElSpanishO-laden number about how you should "dust off your dancing shoe-sto and fiesta with mucho gusto."
