    Okay, I have a couple.

    If you watch The Little Mermaid and the scene where Eric marries Vanessa (Ursula in disguise), you can clearly see the priest has an er.... "happy moment".

    Also, in The Lion King, when the adult Simba flops down with a sigh and lets loose some dust (which is caught by Rafiki in the next scene), if you freeze frame it, in one shot the dust spells out the letters SFX. Most people believe it spells SEX but the Special Effects team put it in for some reason.

    Also, in the Little Mermaid, at the beginning as King Triton comes in you can see Mickey, Donald and Goofy sitting in the audience.

    In the original cover art for the little mermaid you can see a "member" in the castle.

    Hey, that's weird. They are practically identical. Hmmm.....

    I've got another factoid for you. EPCOT stands for Experimental Prototype Centre Of Tomorrow or Experimental Prototype Community Of Tomorrow. Both seem to be true. ???

    EPCOT did stand for Experimental Prototype Comunity Of Tomorrow, but Disney doesn't use that meaning anymore...

    When Las Vegas monorail system between the MGM Grand and Bally's Resorts opened in 1995, it used two refurbished Mark IV trains that once ran at Walt Disney World. In just a few years of operation, the system had carried more than 40 million passengers along its short track. The old Mark IV cars have since been replaced with updated trains.

    the pictures in the previous thread were explained in a bonus feature of one of my dvds. they used to copy animation from previous films when they were going over budget, in order to save money. the robin hood and snow white dances are the most known ones.

    Walt Disney did not like the animation style of 101 dalmatians. after it was released and when they moved onto production of the jungle book did walt see the xerox's full potential. he admitted this to one of his animators days before he died.

    Did you know Imagineers who worked on the Pirates of the Caribbean were used as face models for the audio-animatronic figures?

    I just watched the Little Mermaid and I couldn't see them! Haha mind you I didn't look that hard and when I pause it it's not that clear...is it when it shows the audience up close or that bit from up above (cuz I think I might have seen a few brighter spots in the audience in that scene...)

    It's literally a split second viewing...I'll have to watch it again and find out exactly when it is!

    No word of a lie, when I was 12 I went on this website... www.eeggs.com it tells you all about hidden things in films (which are called easter eggs for those who don't know) and I found one in Aladdin when he says, "Take off your clothes."

    It's the balcony scene just before a whole new world, it cuts down to the Genie and Carpet, and Genie says "How's he doing?" or something, and if you listen to what Al is saying... You will hear it. ::) :)

    In Beauty and the Beast: An Enchanted Christmas it sounds like Fi Fi sings (in the song 'As Long As There's Christmas') "I may wear my tiara you bought me in Walmart". However, what she actually says is 'I may wear my tiara you bought me in Monmartre".

    I always found that really funny.
