Bridget's absence is largely theorized as the character is seldom mentioned in this movie, but possibly referenced from Fievel's expression each time Tony romantically pursues Cholena, as he detects infidelity due to no official departure between Tony and Bridget. This is because of the staff felt that Thomas Dekker, who was 9-10 years old at the time, was too young to have Fievel mention Tony's situations but to allow the young mouse's expression do the talking. Lacey Chabert, who voiced Tanya, was slightly older than Dekker, but the writer for this chapter prefer not to have Tanya mention that concept but to do the same as Fievel. This dialogue constraint, along with Tony's frequent flirtation with Cholena (ignoring Fievel's disapproval) and Tony being kissed on the cheek by Cholena (apparently as a non-romantic thank you kiss), was known to have misled people to believe that Tony and Bridget departed. This concept was removed from the next chapter not only due to Dekker's age, but viewing Tony pursuing other female mice without an official departure from Bridget as an unwanted character derailment and a canonical mistake.

There are several differences between Homer's Iliad and this movie. The twelve Greek Gods play a major role in the plot; some side with the Greeks and some with the Trojans, even arguing and physically fighting beside their allies. In the poem, neither Menelaus nor Agamemnon dies. Achilles' death is foretold, but does not occur in the Illiad, which leaves the Trojan War unresolved. He does die in the war in many related works by other authors. Ajax Telamon also survives the Iliad, but in related literature he dies by his own hand shortly after Achilles' death. The war lasts 10 years, and the events depicted in the movie take place during the last few months of the war. A Greek named Filoktitis or Philoctetes kills Paris right after he kills Achilles (not part of the Iliad, but part of the Greek mythology). Overall, the Iliad is an account of the feud between Achilles and Agamemnon; not all the romantic elements are as prominent in the poem as they are in the movie.
