The Spaghetti Scene From Lady And The Tramp Almost Never Happened
In fact, Walt found it to be silly, thinking that no dog would ever share their food with another. Because of this, the scene almost got scrapped if not for animator Frank Thomas' persistence.

Which makes the later parody in The Simpsons where the two dogs realise they're eating the same strand of spaghetti and immediately start snarling at each other even funnier.

For 2 Years, Walt Disney Was The Only One Who Could Produce Colored Films
Squirrelly Panda 3 years ago
Disney purchased exclusive rights to technicolor for animation. Other companies like the Fleischer Brothers had to use a less vibrant color process such as cinecolor, a 2 color process. I don't remember what color process the Fleischer Studios used, but I do believe it was a 2 color process, whereas technicolor was a 3 color process so could do much more vibrant colors.

Voice Actors Of Mickey Mouse And Minnie Mouse Married In Real Life
The couple, though, kept their personal romance private. They did not want their marriage to color how Disney fans viewed Mickey and Minnie, who have never officially married. Once, radio host Paul Harvey asked them to share their romantic story with his “The Rest of the Story” listeners, Farmer recounts. They refused. That would have drawn the spotlight away from their characters.

The Snowman Olaf Was Originally Going To Be Elsa’s Sidekick
Olaf is one of the greatest parts of Frozen, but the original version of Disney's iconic snowman, where he was mean, would have made him a much less beloved character. Olaf started the animated feature as a typical Disney sidekick, brought to life by Elsa's magic. Josh Gad's performance as Olaf and a major deviation from the original plan, which had Frozen writer and director Jennifer Lee ready to kill the character off, resulted in a delightful companion that truly made the movie magical.

The Film Ratatouille Created A Trend For Pet Rats
Katie Lutesinger 3 years ago
I just hope the parents of the kids who now wanted a rat did their homework on how to care for them. You can't just stick a rat in a cage with a bowl of pellets and call it a day, and it's depressing how many people don't know that. If I sound bitter it's because I've adopted unwanted rats before and so many of them were neglected. Improper food, forced to live on bare wire flooring which damages their paws, no toys, no fellow rats to play with (which can literally drive them insane from loneliness)... the list goes on.

My DD had a pet rat named Zelda. I didn't like rats when she adopted Zelly (DD was 16 & I agreed to it, so long as she warned when Zelly was "loose"--in her plastic exercise ball). In no time, I was handling Zelda and really loved the sweetheart. She lived for 5 years before cancer got her. I insisted that my then-husband take Zelda to the vet to be euthanized (DD went, too--she held Zelda in her last moments). Zelda is buried in the yard with the family dog, my son's guinea pigs & a few hamsters.

If you get a chance to watch this in 70mm, do it. The backgrounds are amazing. Also, there is a shot for shot recreation in live action from the animators to help in the process of storyboarding.

What is the function of that bellybutton on a mermaid? Because surely....
Bunzilla 3 years ago
Well, they're mammals. Whales and dolphins have belly-buttons too. Unless you subscribe to the group who feels they were hatched instead. In which case they wouldn't be mammals...? Hard to say, given they're mythological creatures.

Disney’s First Real Original Film In Terms Of Storyline Was The Movie The Lion King
The first Disney animated film that isn't based on an already-existing story is "The Lion King." It is based on half of the tales from classical mythology, to put it another way. It tells the story of lion baby Simba's birth, upbringing, and eventual maturation into a man. The "The Circle of Life" opening sequence, which is a stirring combination of music and animation to portray all the animals of the African veld assembling to laud their future king, announces the birth of the cub.

Well, not really. The storyline is basically Hamlet. They even have Timon and Pumbaa as standins for Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.
