Aladdin tells teenagers to take off their clothes
The scandal: In the scene in Aladdin where the titular hero is trying to sneak into Princess Jasmine's bedroom (which is already kinda raunchy), he whispers in her pet tiger Rajah: Good teenagers, take off your clothes.
But did it really happen? Nope. Aladdin actually says Come on... good kitty, take off and go. Which some nutjobs misheard as a reference to adolescent promiscuity. As you do.
Sex in the sky of The Lion King
The scandal: As Simba slumps on a cliff next to Timon and Pumbaa, a pile of dust flows from beneath him and into the night sky. At regular speed the scene is innocent, but when played in slow motion, the dust appears to spell sex.
But did it really happen? Hard to say, though the dust definitely looks like it was animated to intentionally form letters. Some believe it actually spells SFX, an industry acronym for special effects.
The Little Mermaid's castles look like man-parts
The scandal: Some believe one of the towers on the castle in the background of The Little Mermaid's promotional artwork was intentionally drawn to resemble male genitalia.
But did it really happen? Unlikely. While the tower is undoubtedly phallic, the artist who drew it was apparently unaware of the resemblance. Disney later modified the castle artwork to avoid further fuss.
The Little Mermaid: a priest gets excited at Prince Eric's wedding
The scandal: In another Little Mermaid controversy, the priest performing the marriage of the Prince and the evil Ursula-in-disguise was purposely drawn to appear aroused.
But did it really happen? Nope. Disney says this is simply his knee protruding, and in the very next frame, you can clearly see the midget-like minister's two pointy knees side-by-side.
A topless woman hides in the background of The Rescuers
The scandal: As our two mousey heroes travel in their makeshift airplane, a photorealistic image of a topless woman can be seen in the window of one of the buildings they pass by.
But did it really happen? This one's actually true. Scandalous! If you play the scene back in slow motion and freeze-frame the shot, you can clearly see the offending boobies. Disney subsequently issued a recall of the home video version in 1999.
Jessica Rabbit sans underwear in Who Framed Roger Rabbit
The scandal: The already racy Who Framed Roger Rabbit is rumoured to include a scene where Jessica can be seen without underwear. As the foxy 'toon is thrown from her car, her private parts are apparently flashed in two frames as she gets up.
But did it really happen? Hard to tell. The offending frames do look different from the ones surrounding them, but not different enough to clearly depict nudity.
Who Framed Roger Rabbit's hidden racism
The scandal: In another Roger Rabbit controversy, Donald Duck supposedly hurls an African-American epithet â the dreaded N-word â at Daffy Duck as the two quackers play a duet on the piano.
But did it really happen? Not a chance. The word in question would be absolutely unacceptable in any family film. Donald actually uses his catchphrase you doggone little...!, before quacking hysterically at poor Daffs.
Toy Story's Woody envies Buzz Lightyear's laser
The scandal: As Sheriff Woody becomes increasingly jealous of Andy's new toy Buzz Lightyear, Mr Potato Head quips that Woody is suffering from Laser envy, alluding to Siegfried Freud's theory of Penis envy.
But did it really happen? Yep, Potato Head clearly says this in the film. Though adults would have picked the saucy reference, it would likely have gone completely unnoticed by most kids.
Alice's drug trip to Wonderland
The scandal: Disney's adaptation of Lewis Carroll's classic has long been rumoured to be an ode to the joys of being high on drugs â specifically opium (what did you think the Caterpillar was meant to be smoking?).
But did it really happen? Unknown. Though Alice's experiences in Wonderland are bizarrely surreal, and going down the rabbit hole is actually slang for taking drugs, and she even eats a mushroom that has unusual side-effects, no one knows for sure if these allusions were intentional.
Walt Disney's classic Fantasia is one massive drug-trip
The scandal: Yet another animated classic rumoured to be a drug-induced experience. Originally a cinematic flop when released in 1940, Disney re-released the cult classic in the late 1960s... conveniently when drug culture was at an all-time high. What a coincidence!
But did it really happen? Nope. The film is not believed to actually represent a tripped-out hallucination, though some suspect it performed much better at the box office due to a belief it was a psychedelic drug-fest.
Snow White's seven dwarfs represent the stages of cocaine addiction
The scandal: Though the film is based on a classic fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, it was Walt Disney who named each of the seven dwarfs, with some believing he modeled them after the seven stages of cocaine addiction.
But did it really happen? Nope. Though drugs can induce various stages of addiction, they aren't really as clear-cut as the dwarfs' very distinct personalities. And if the rumour was actually true, what stage of addiction would Doc represent, anyway?[/centerrmpg1h5]
