The baby crocodile hatched is the same one in Peter Pan that torments Captain Hook, as seen as the baby crocodile eats a clock and chases James.
It is the first Tinker Bell film to feature pre-existing characters from the Peter Pan franchise besides Tinker Bell herself (Smee, Captain Hook, and Tick-Tock the Crocodile).
Not only does Tom Hiddleston play James Hook, he's also the singing voice for him as well. He's also been on Broadway before.
When James brings the captain her tea, it's Earl Grey "hot." This is how Captain Picard takes him on Star Trek: The Next Generation.
A short clip at 1:09:29 shows James the cabin boy surfacing with a hook, foreshadowing his future as Captain Hook.
