Subliminal Messages in Disney Movies

I find it interesting that somehow the mentality of people is to find subliminal messages in everything (and I'm not saying I'm immune from looking).
Ironically, when I discovered the s-e-x in the Lion King, it was at a get together with the church youth group (my parents helped the youth pastor, so, even though it was a teenage group and I was around 8, I was an honorary youth). Why they decided to show the smut, I do not know.
Snopes is awesome. I love urban legends. And darn it, IT WAS NOT A MUNCHKIN HANGING ITSELF IN THE WIZRD OF OZ!!!!!!!! *breaths heavily* Sorry, I know that wasn't completely related (except being a 'supposedly hidden thing in a movie'), but I'm very emotional about that subject. Although it is interesting that there are certain hidden things that people will say are there, no matter how much proof there is that it isn't.

Woah...that's really messed up. I, too, looked at almost all of them, and I didn't know Disney was that evil! ;D I did know that DreamWorks has a little "agenda", if you will, to put adult humour into children's films. Example: In Alladin [I'm not sure if that is a DreamWorks film, but I think it is....] they were talking about a "tupperware burp" and if you aren't an adult, chances are you don't know what that is, unless you are a very mature child....like alot of the people here! ;D Also, in Good Boy, two men live together, referring to homosexuality, probably. If that is so, I by no means am trying to bash homosexuality, it's just a bit of adult humour......

Haha, yeah...
It seems as if Donkey is merely commenting on Farquaad's height, though...

In Good Boy, that probably wasn't meant to be humor. Sexual orientation is just that - sexual orientation. No different from race. Forty years ago someone could point to a movie and say, "Hey, there's a black guy in it, and it's a kids' movie!" Same mistake.

The Rafiki thing. Gosh, I remember when I saw that movie and would amuse my brother by jumping around chanting like Rafiki. 9 years old, absolutely no knowledge of African languages but I STILL managed to say "Asante sana. Squash banana." etc. and anything nastier just never occured to me. I think that the people "finding" these things are LOOKING for something bad.
