* EnsembleDarkHorse: Will and Bill the krill. As pointless as they are to the overall narrative, there are some people who found Will’s existential journey amusing to watch and liked his witty banter with Bill. [[SpotlightStealingSquad In fact, many people actually found their subplot more entertaining than the main story with the penguins.]] It probably helps that they are voiced by two [[Creator/MattDamon popular]] [[Creator/BradPitt actors.]]



* {{Moe}}: Surprise, surprise, Erik, Bo and Atticus are utterly adorable baby penguins.

* {{Sequelitis}}: Many feel that the second movie is just a mediocre rehash of what made the first movie so good. The shift to a [[LighterAndSofter Lighter and Softer]], [[DenserAndWackier Denser and Wackier]] tone hasn't helped the franchise either.

Added DiffLines:

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: The CGI is noticeably improved from the first movie, with more crowds of dancing penguins and more amazing attention to smaller details, especially during parts of the movie where the audience gets to see things from Will and Bill’s point of view.

Meta T Js are not allowed. And while some cases of I Am Not Spock-ing are fine, these are like the last two actors that make sense for it lol.


** Meta: This is the final animated film to feature the voice of Robin Williams before his death in 2014 (though not his last voiceover role in general; his final film, ''Film/AbsolutelyAnything'', saw Williams as the voice of Dennis the Dog).

** The scene where Erik urges Sven to teach the Emperor Penguins how to fly. Despite his reservations Sven actually ''does'' try, though his efforts prove futile. It's particularly heartbreaking when he tries desperately to help reunite Seymour and Atticus.
