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?
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? Share your thoughts in the comments.

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.

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

A house with 101 Dalmatians would fill up with Dog excrement pretty quickly. No doubt the neighbors would have complained and they would soon be visited by the police, animal control and the department of social services.

While we don't see it, Roger suggests at the end of the movie that they move out to the country, to what he calls a "Dalmatian Plantation". So they probably weren't all together in the house for very long, and they may have dealt with the faeces in some way that definitely wouldn't have appeared in a kid's movie while they were in the process of relocating.

hey parents, you need to be careful when you show these disney cartoons to your four and five year old kids. That is when the life script is set in concrete in the subconscious. If they buy in to these old fables or new fables personally as they apply to themselves, for better or worse, they have unknowingly planned out their life script. This can be devastating (read JKNBTJKNBT comments below)... So beware!
