As we grow up, our perspective changes and we reevaluate some of the things in our lives.

So scroll down, upvote the shower thoughts that left an impression on you, and be sure to share with your friends. And let us know in the comments if you’ve had any peculiar or intriguing insights into Disney movies as well.

When you’re all good and done with this list, have a look through our previous posts about the most awesome things Disney employees have ever done, how Disney characters would look if they lived in the modern world, as well as Disney comics that might just ruin your childhood.

Imagine the depiction of the human race in an alien school book, based on his cartoons.

Among the slightly disturbing shower thoughts is the theory that because no human beings are shown on the Lion King, the film could be set during any era, like a future where humanity has gone extinct and had to become ruthless and cold-blooded cyborgs to survive. Which is both cool and terrifying at the same time.

Another insight is about how Beauty and the Beast would have to go on a monstrous shopping spree after everyone’s turned back into people (let’s just hope they get a discount at IKEA). Or how about the fact that ‘true love’s kiss’ probably means… well, you know... something that leads to princes and princesses being born 9 months later and new Disney movies being made 18 years after that.

Plus, Queen is not evil per se. Her country is thriving, there is no war and people do not riot against her. She just wants to eliminate the competition to the throne. Something common in middle ages Europe, where the story is, fictionaly, placed.

There are a lot of dark Disney movie theories floating about the internet. They’re interesting, however, they might ruin your favorite films, so read on at your own peril. Digital Spy writes how one fan theory (one that many of you may have already heard before) is that ‘Aladdin’ takes place in a post-apocalyptic future. All because Genie referred to 3rd-century fashion and mentioned that he’d been stuck in his lamp for 10,000 years. If so, what exactly happened to humanity for everything to change so much?

The real story is that he was so doped that all was on his imagination.

Another fan theory is that Carl from ‘Up’ (a film that was released by Disney, even if it was produced by Pixar) may have been dead all along, while the kid named Russel is supposedly an angel trying to earn its wings. A third theory is that Anna and Elsa’s parents from ‘Frozen’ weren’t lost at sea, but ended up stuck in the jungle, the mother eventually giving birth to a boy whom we grew to know as Tarzan. Do you think such fan theories have any merit to them? What do you think about the unexpected insights into Disney films? What’s your favorite Disney movie moment?

A lot of English nobles moved to france in mid-19th century (that’s why the main road in Cannes is “Promenade des Anglais”)

In the original story, the step sisters hacked off their own toes and heels to try and fit into those slippers. There's a lot messed up about this story, both the Disney version and it's predecessor.

I wrote a whole report on the Grimm's story version. I remember the birds pecking out the step sisters' eyes.

The shoe was supposed to be magical, so it wouldn't feet other women even if they had the same shoe size as Cinderella.

There was magic involved. The slipper was enchanted. So even if you had the exact same shoe size as Cinderella, the shoe would not fit you. That's my spin anyway.

In the original story, the slipper is not made of glass. The slipper was made of "vair" wich was fur. Through the year, it was mispelled "verre", witch translates to glass.

Maybe a silly question, don't know if it was ever addressed, but why did the slipper not disappear?

When I first watched the movie I thought that maybe they went to Cinderella's house first before the other houses because the evil "mother" requested it to make the evil "sisters" the chosen one for the prince.

The slippers are MAGICAL. They only fit the person they were made for.

Maybe she'd been forced to wear undersized shoes for years, and therefore had teeny tiny feet?

She is very delicately put together, tiny feet and hands, which was seen as the distinction between nobility and peasants.

The sisters died by crows drilling her eyes and dancing to the death. These stories were brutal... I'm not sure about this, but I know certainly someone die dancing to the death. Almost like on a heavy metal event when you're a rookie.

I think that this is another tale, "the red shoes" or something like that.

I used to think of this a lot. Then I reasoned that if a fairy godmother made her shoes out of glass, they would be a one of a kind fit for Cinderella only.

Well, the slipper is made of glass which is not usual material. Shoes made of materials today are flexible but glass isn't. So it kinda makes sense it would totally fit only few persons. If the slipper was made of cotton or leather this statement would be true. Her feet don't even need to be small, just, somewhat oddly shaped. Glass does not forgive.

But if that was true then the slipper should never have fallen off in the first place since it would fit so perfectly.

Not to mention the rat's nest her hair would have actually been. Dirt, leaves, tangles. She might have even had moths living in there like sloths do.

it was originated from a folk story, and not one entirely made for kids solely. even so, the concept of censoring certain themes from children is only a recent trend.

Also Neptune was the brother of Zeus. Zeus was Hercules' father. Neptune was Aries's father. So Hercules and Ariel were cousins.
