Once again, we learn our protagonists’ innermost thoughts via song when she sings, “I can lead with pride/ I can make us strong/ I’ll be satisfied if I play along/ but a voice inside sings a different song/ what is wrong with me?” In both the Frozen films and Moana, our heroines blame themselves for feeling out of place and different. Moana is also a great example of a protagonist feeling like they don’t belong and yearning for something more. Turns out the call was inside her all along- just like Moana! Elsa is loving life with Arendelle’s gates open, which we know from the song Some Things Never Change. She sings, “The winds are restless/Could that be why I’m feeling this call?/ There’s something coming/ But I’m not sure I want things to change at all.” Most of her is happy with her life, but part of her feels like she doesn’t belong…which we know from Into the Unknown: “Or are you someone out there/ who’s a little bit like me/ who knows deep down/ I’m not where I’m meant to be?” When Elsa finds the truth about their parents and grandparents, she finds inner peace and where she belongs. The examples that first come to mind are Frozen II, Moana, and Hercules. Finding where they belong, either emotionally, physically, or mentally solves their issue and roll credits. The protagonist isn’t where they belong, and that’s the source of their unhappiness/strife/struggle. So what’s this elusive message in every Disney movie? The same message I love from Frozen II can be found in every single Disney animated feature, and likely the Pixar ones too (though I haven’t put it to the test yet). On that note, here are 21 maybe-sorta hidden sex references in Disney movies.So I was lying in bed the other night, staring at the ceiling in another bout of pandemic insomnia and thinking about Disney movies (you know, as you do), and I had an epic epiphany. They’ll go frame by frame and they’ll pull those questionable things out all the time.” But really since the modern age of playing back stuff and everything, they look at everything now, even the old films. ![]() So you say, ‘Well, nobody’s seeing anything.’…And then will do that as a joke. While Disney has never admitted to any of its infamous innuendos, former animator Tom Sito pretty much confirmed that the company has been cleaning up old jokes during an interview with the Huffington Post when he said, “You know in pre-video and pre-VHS and VCR and stuff, people used to put little inside jokes in films because things were running at 1/24th of a second. Not sure who was supervising Disney’s animators back in the roaring ’90s, but they had no chill whatsoever and clearly made it their mission to slip as many dirty jokes into their movies as humanly possible. Like, we’re talking rogue penises on VHS covers, priests with visible erections, shots of naked women, and even the word “sex” floating in the breeze during The Lion King. Since before the internet was even a thing, rumors have been circulating that certain classic Disney movies contain hidden sexual references-because apparently we, as a society, simply cannot have nice things. You know your precious childhood memories? Gather round, because they’re about to be ruined.
