Seriously good stuff  

Animation is really neat in the sense that if the people that work on it want to, they can slip in all kinds
of nifty stuff.  I really wonder how much stuff is hidden in animated movies.  You gotta imagine that
when you get a bunch of adults together making "kid movies" they're seriously tempted to do some "interesting" things  

Pixar tends to be more playful with their Easter Eggs and from what I've seen treats its employees with respect. But Disney's had it's fair share of animator shenanigans due to its own behavior.

Disney tends to piss off a lot of the creative people that work on their films (imagine that), and sometimes these people will retaliate.

There's the guy who painted a penis right into the middle of the castle in the poster for The Little Mermaid:

The Basic Instinct-esque exposure of Jessica Rabbit in Who Framed Roger Rabbit?:

And then there's the porno inserted into a scene in The Rescuers:

Is that the kind of thing you were talking about, frank?

Exactly.  You're awesome

Sheshhh, someone had to look very closely. Or I guess they told someone themselves, because if nobody sees it what's the point? Anyway I prefer them doing cartoons for my children than working in a restaurant. Wait a minute...

Half way through The Lion King, when Simba slumps to the ground, a swirl of dust and leaves is supposed to spell the word "SEX". Here's an image of it. don't know if it genuinely appears like that or if the pictures been tampered with.




And isn't Aladdin supposed to mutter "teenagers take off your clothes" when he's about to take off on his magic carpet with Jasmine for the first time? I haven't got a copy of it to check.

Yeah, I've heard about both of these, but I'm not sure about the veracity of either one. I think the Aladdin one might just be someone mishearing a line of dialog, really...

I just found this on you tube.

Yep, and I still think it's being misheard.

Yep, they showed a teaser trailer for it if you saw the 3-D version of Up...  

..and phalic jokes are awlays funny

Yes.

Yes they are.

[dweez]

JF, I'm with you on the Aladdin one.  I think it was just misheard.

I hate Disney. They used to do such good and funny animations. But, recently, it has been all about the money. They make movies fast to sell them even faster based upon only their name. Also, since a cartoon is long to do, they switched to real-persons movies which are horrible!
But then again, Pixar is owned by Disney. Therefore, I guess that Disney will concentrate on Hannah Montana/Jonas Brothers crap and leave the animation to Pixar.  

Also, did you know that Pixar plans the release of Monster Inc. 2 and Cars 2

For the record, this is not a recent development...

While Disney did acquire Pixar, they have actually more of a partnership than anything else. Disney-Pixar's first flick was Cars and for the foreseeable future will remain together. Pixar owns the films outright and does the marketing, while Disney is the distributor of the films.

You are kind of right about Disney giving up on it's animation studio and letting Pixar do the animation, but only to the extent that John Lasseter (one of the founding members of Pixar) is the head of both studios. Disney is still producing films in the 'Classic' line (which includes Snow White, Lady & the Tramp, Aladdin, etc.), however the last three have been non-Pixar CGI flicks: Chicken Little, Meet the Robinsons & Bolt. Though this year's The Princess and the Frog will be more traditional 2-D animation (which incidentally, is also animated with computers ).

And yeah, I did know about the sequels, tho' I'm not all that excited. I'm more interested in Newt, which is a their next original piece.

And apparently they may be getting into live-action with 1906 (about the SF earthquake) and John Carter of Mars, but no one seems to be able to figure out to what extent Pixar will be involved with these movies. If they'll be total Pixar productions or if Pixar is just providing CGI effects to a live-action flick produced by another company.
