2. In Beauty and the Beast all the servants in the castle are turned into furniture. This makes one wonder, where was the existing furniture? Did the servants get merged with the existing furniture? And if so, who was the poor sap that got turned into the toilet? Obviously once the curse was lifted everyone turned back into people, so that would mean that the plot for Beauty and the Beast 2 would just be one and a half hours of Belle and the prince shopping for new furniture and appliances.
3. Beauty and the Beast is set in France, so why is Lumiere the only one with a french accent?
4. Moving on from Beauty and the Beast to Cinderella. The prince met Cinderella at a ball and fell in love with her. So much so that he searched the entire kingdom for her. What they didn't show is that Cinderella's dress must have shown some awesome cleavage because the prince couldn't remember what she looked like. All he had to go on was one lost slipper.
5. Speaking of which, Cinderella must have had some seriously weird feet for the slipper that she wore not to fit anyone else in the kingdom.
6. Aladdin is the classic rags-to-riches tale of an orphan who becomes a prince. But in the beginning of the movie, his only friends are a flying carpet, a smoking lamp and a monkey that he communicates with. Technically he was off of his mind on drugs for most of the movie.
7. Aladdin only has three wishes and he uses his last wish to free the genie. But Jasmine knew about the genie and the lamp, so Aladdin could have just handed her the lamp and she would have been able to get three wishes as well before setting the genie free.
8. At the very beginning of Aladdin, the movie is narrated by a peddler that tells you the story of the lamp. So in essence the entire film is one big sales pitch for a dusty, and now useless, lamp.
9. Disney's Mulan is based on the Chinese legend of General Mulan, a great warrior that helped save China from the Huns. She disguised the fact that she was a woman (women were not considered warriors in her time) and fought bravely to free China. She is still considered a great hero. But her deception hinged entirely on the fact that she had small boobs. If she was a cup size or two bigger, we wouldn't have known about her. The movie also ruined me slightly. Now every time someone says "let's get down to business" all I want to do is defeat the Huns.
10. In Disney's The Lion King there are no traces of any human civilization, so chances are the film is set way back in the past.
11. The very catchy song Hakuna Matata was taught to Simba by the meerkat Timon and the warthog Pumbaa. It signifies a life without any worries or strive, but in reality they probably taught him the song and how to survive off of eating grubs, insects and worms so that he wouldn't eat them.
12. Without realising it, Simba actually sings about his father's death with the song "I Just Can't Wait to be King." The only way to ascend the throne is by the king dying and the son taking his place.
13. In The Little Mermaid, it is probably a given that Ariel would have crapped herself at least once on the day she was turned human.
14. The story of Snow White is about a young girl so beautiful that she will grow up to be the most beautiful woman in the kingdom, which greatly upsets the current queen. But it raises a few questions. If the queen had the power to transform herself into a hag, surely she had the power to transform herself into someone even more beautiful than Snow White. Also, if you think about it, when the prince discovers Snow White (who had died and was laid to rest) he kisses her. So basically he kissed the corpse of a minor he just discovered. That is bordering on very creepy!
15. In pretty much most Disney films the main villain is the evil queen. So that must mean that most Disney princesses are actually closet psychopaths.
