My favorite sadedest moment and controversial scene is Chicken run decapitation scene and Optimus death and Aladin Original song, sausage party wich ruined my taste for food, Plague dogs, Jessica from Who framed River rabbit and even Batman and batgirl, also How about deleted prequels Star Wars scene or even animated Star Wars 2003 movies which Anakin sees vision about Darth Vader
The donkey transformation scene of Lampwick in Pinocchio, the rats being discarded down the drain in Secret of Nymh, and the "death row" dog scene in Lady and The Tramp were probably the hardest to watch or accept.
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoons It's that actions have consequences, even if the consequences aren't immediate. They boys acted like jackasses, so they became jackasses.
Back when kids movies didn't talk down to kids and wasn't filled to the brim with potty humor. Yeah a kid might have a nightmare but that was the fun part, the most remarkable rewatch and rememberable parts of the films.
People want to complain how dark alot of the early Disney films were...yet...has anyone actually read the original stories they are based off of? The book "Pinocchio", for example, WAY darker than any on screen portrayal from Hollywood. In fact, I'd recommend looking up "Un burattino di nome Pinocchio" from 1971. It is an Italian animated film that follows the original book way more closely, with many of the darker moments included. This was not a Hollywood film, so they didn't hold back on the storybook details.
@@COELACANTHofficial Well, the cricket actually didn't have a name in the book, but yeah, he was crushed when Pinocchio threw a hammer at his head. And Pinocchio was hung from a tree by the cat and fox when he refused to give up where he hid his gold coins, but that wasn't at the end of the book, that was at the end of the first half of the story. It continues on after that, where the fairy with the blue hair has him cut down from the tree.
The donkey transformation in Pinocchio is the one that represents for me true childhood trauma, and the whole Plague Dogs movie was hard to watch. And that's what makes me respect them both, as they make concience about our awful tendencies as society. Whether vice, scams, traffic and animal abuse. Worst of all, none of any of the villains in both movies got what they deserved, which, again, is no different from our reality.
@@HB_Doraemon_Multitoons Myself as a 6 year old was scared, but learned well. As for Plague Dogs, my experience was harder and I wasn't a kid anymore the first time I watched it, but it had it's lessons as well.
Isiah 3:10-12 Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, For they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Woe to the wicked! It shall be ill with him, For the reward of his hands shall be given him. As for My people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. Eventually everyone who has done evil and does not turn to Jesus to be saved will get what they deserve whether they like it or not. It also makes it more sad because by denying God they are simply digging their own graves. Jesus died for everybody and will accept everyone who comes to Him to be saved, but even the bible states that there are those whose hearts will harden to God all the more and will continue to go deny Him.
it's literally a 100% ripoff of Teen Wolf. anyway, who the fuck in 2024 thinks menstruation is "controversial"? someone would have to be extremely ignorant or sexist to believe something so mundane is a controversy. do better, humanity.
It's not Disney's place to show pads and tampons in a CHILDREN'S movie. Maybe you don't like to be responsible, but many of us would rather talk to our own kids about this stuff
@@KeithB-mg2oq It's also a parent's choice to choose what movies they want their children to experience. More importantly its not a parent's choice to dictate to every other family what movies are allowed to be made or not made and what content is or is not appropriate for children to watch.
I think the only reason that love scene happened was because for some reason, the creators of this movie felt that the source material was not shocking enough.
I was shocked to find out that the stupid scene from comics was in the film It would have been lot better if that one was cut it's better not to adapt worst scenes from comics
Sadly, I don't fully remember the reason back when I got to the SDCC panel the year they showed us the full movie... It was my first time seeing this storyline in any form, so, they described it or what they were looking to do or add or something... I mean they even had to find out how to get Hamill to do the singing in the movie due to his schedule. So, yeah, I don't fully remember why, and I don't think exactly that the reason is, the storyline is short to create for film
Hot take: The scenes in Dumbo and Pinocchio were "scared straight" types of scenes, intended to make kids be scared of drinking booze or gambling, watching boxing or having adult activities. They came from an earlier time where people thought you had to toughen kids up to make them do good things instead of just patiently teaching them right from wrong like we believe now. Also the Hellfire scene from Hunchback is one of the greatest works of art in human history.
No, it was "SEX", clearly and unquestionably. It is NOT a matter of perception, it's a matter of which version you check. It became too known so in later releases Disney weaselled out and edited it to "SFX", then had the balls to claim that's what it was the whole time, a shout-out to the Sound Effects team. No. This was sloppy spin doctoring. Meanwhile I learned of this Easter Egg from a DISNEY PUBLISHED list of naughty Easter eggs, where they themselves flat out said it was "SEX". In the early 90s a friend's little brother earned a spot in a Disney young future animators summer camp thing, this list was in their welcome packet (this, the Little Mermaid one in this video, and Aladdin saying "Teenagers, take off your clothes", are the items I remember. I confirmed Lion King and Aladdin on VHS tapes at the time). Aladdin's one is my favourite because THAT line is what seems to get Jasmine to recognize him, LOL!
@@niceguy169 I listened to that Aladdin VHS moment over and over again, and, at least on the VHS version of the film, he actually says something akin to, "Good Raja, take off and go," as Jasmine's tiger was giving him a hard time.
It just kills me how often the announcer asks if the movie's creator meant if for a family audience. NO, dammit! So many of the films here are NOT family films. Not made to be family films. Not advertised as family films. Guh! Makes me crazier than I already am. Bakshi, in particular. Good gods.
Fun Fact. Duke was supposed to die in the G. I. Joe the Movie, but because of the backlash over Optimus's death so he was just in a coma. But I still think the scene with Duke was more darker, he got impaled on the chest with a snake and there was blood.
Fritz the Cat was literally X Rated. It was about political and social differences. Of course it was going to be controversial. That's part of what made it the masterpiece it is. It chose to delve into the problems of the time. Something no other animated movie did at the time.
Honorable mentions Hoppers demise (a bug's life) Barracuda attack (finding nemo) Kronos (the incredibles) The love montage (up) Puss has an anxiety attack (puss in boots the last wish)
Watership Down was just...let's just say god bless the poor children who watched this and thought it was a happy movie about frolicking rabbits. Only to be scarred and have nightmares.
Killing off Optimus Prime was a huge mistake on Hasbro’s part. They got so much backlash for it due to underestimating how many kids cared about the character that they brought him back later on. What they learned from that is that you can kill Optimus Prime but that it can’t be permanent. Since many incarnations of Optimus Prime still do die but it’s never permanent he ALWAYS comes back sooner or later.
The thing people always forget about Disney's first few animated films is that they were made an older audience in mind. Particularly Snow White, Pinnochio, etc.
It's always deserved in the #1 place because how the batgirl scene in the dc animated movie is already the controversy of all controversies. This is why it's embarassing and as well as disappointing NOT just controversial.
Never saw the movie but I like the road lizard at 8:55 The hell scene from All Dogs Go To Heaven terrified me as a kid but solely because it was a scene about hell. The fact that it happened to a dog had nothing to do with it
It kinda did. I remember reading an article that when Hasbro released movies of their big three (Transformers, GI Joe, MLP, in that order), Optimus' death had *such* an impact on audiences that when it came time to kill Duke in the GI Joe movie (they were phasing out his figure for the newer line), they instead had him "fall into a coma" and his recovery is mentioned almost in a throw-away line at the end of the film. If you watch the scene, Scarlett's animation doesn't come close to matching her dialogue and just the overall tone of the scene is one of sadness and loss.
One thing that bothered me in "Red", if turning into a panda is a family curse, why didn't the mother suspect even once that she might have turned into a panda, and instead thought it was her first period?
What you left out from Pinocchio on Pleasure Island was the final terrifying moment of Lampwick’s transformation, when - only in shadow - he screams “Mama!”…and that’s the last human word he speaks. Definitely unsettling.
@@edwardmusa2201 Nothing about f***ing woke... Many kids shows don't talk about dark tropics anymore 'cause of the many complaints parents will send...
Not really. Any themes they had back then exists in modern tv/movies. Plus there are some things that are now allowed in modern tv/movies that censors wouldn't allow for back then.
While all dogs go to heaven has some dark moments, there was one thing that made the movie dark and sad: the little girl. Read that was her last role due to a horrible tragedy. Look it up. Even burt reynolds was broken up about it

I actually love the scenes in Dumbo, Bambi and The Hunchback of Notre Dame along with other earlier Disney movies. Kids need to experience the horrors of reality every once in awhile.
Surprised "Felidae" isn't on here. It's a, definitely adult intended, cartoon film about a murder mystery with talking cats...and I mean MURDER mystery, as in there are multiple graphic scenes of said cats being brutally killed and mutilated in every imaginable manner (one even involving a pregnant mom cat with her unborn kittens ripped out of her stomach).
First time I watched that movie was with a group of friends, all smoking and drinking, when that scene came on we were all looking around the room like ummmmm.... You see that too, right? 🤣🤣🤣
The blender scene in the Brave Little Toaster is just one of many disturbing scenes. A few others: the death of the air conditioner, the death of the flower, the clown nightmare where the toaster gets dropped in a bathtub, the cars getting crushed to death and the native american truck committing suicide scene in the junkyard. That movie was pretty dark lmao.
@@mojo3318 Definitely worth checking out the film! Haha thanks. It's not me, it's a singer named Lauren Mayberry from the music video for Clearest Blue.
@@lindseychan5493 Well my problem is that I think these things through too much. Like, if all our tools and appliances are alive, then aren't junkyards really graveyards? Should I feel guilt for not talking to my waffle iron enough? Is my curling iron bored? It's worse than Toy Story.
@TheComedyGeek I get that. As a kid I didn't see it that way....I guess because my family held on to things as long as possible. We repaired stuff, not just electronics...but shoes even. So as a kid I viewed the toaster & VCR as eternal. 😅 Toys I had more of an attachment to because the 'relationship' was more personal & there was no toy repair place to take them to if they were damaged.
All of them were good choices, but as far as I can think of, some from animated movies would be "Felidae," a 1994 German animated movie about a cat who is a detective who is solving brutal murders from other cats. Some of the cats are experimented into becoming mutant cats, and the story itself pushes some boundaries. For "Beetlejuice" 1988, I had a few thoughts about the plotline: some of my family members believed the movie was too anti-religious. It was nothing pleasant for it to be a kid's movie, and it mentioned some adult content like what "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" did. Oh yeah, is it possible for "Coraline" 2009 to be a creepy kids' movie and have some parts that are a bit shocking to understand? Between imagination and reality, can you mess up your mind to determine which side you should choose as a kid? Well, I wished Coraline didn't find the doorway to the other side, or else, she could've ended up what those ghost kids did.
I don't care how controversial it may be, or whatever anyone might say. Fritz the Cat is a masterpiece of a film, an animated one at that. And it will forever be.
A scene that needs to be on this list is a scene from The Black Cauldron, the Disney film where the character Gurgi sacrifices himself by jumping into the Black Cauldron to kill the Cauldron-born and save his friends. Seeing a character commit suicide to save his friends is definitely worthy of being on this list.
Song of the South is in my top 5 favorite Disney movies, and it's is one of my favorite animated movies in general. Albeit it is technically a hybrid film. People have no clue what their ranting about when talking about the movie because they haven't seen it. First of all, it takes place in the Reconstruction Era. There are no slaves in the movie. And nobody is treated as a slave. The movie is about a boy named Johnny whose father leaves him. Uncle Remus looks after him and comforts him while his father is gone. Kind of almost becoming his father figure throughout the movie. Remus teaches him valuable lessons about outsmarting people who want to hurt him and valuing the people around him. The live-action segments are beautifully written and emotional. You come to love the relationship Johnny and Uncle Remus develop throughout the movie. And the animated sections are also beautiful. Bre'r Fox is a genuinely great villain. Bre'r Rabbit is a fun and cunning character. And Bre'r Bear and Bre'r Fox's relationship is also great. You can say that the movie is "racist" for taking place during the Reconstruction Era, which would honestly be pretty stupid because a time period can't be racist. But outside of that, there is absolutely NOTHING racist or wrong with the movie. And if you so want to try and prove me wrong, please, go ahead and watch the movie. Find something racist in it outside of the time period it takes place in.
I really like the movie too. The only other ppl I know who have seen it are my siblings, and one grade school friend. Anyone else I've spoken to about it have never actually seen it. The subject of this movie has been brought up a lot because I live in Orlando, only 10 minutes from Walt Disney World. When it was announced that Splash Mountain was going to be closed, all ppl would talk about was Song of the South. Funny thing was they were talking about a movie they knew zero about. Splash Mountain is gone now, along with it's amazing musical score, but the parks are always changing....so it's something I'm used to. I still miss Mr.Toad's Wild Ride. 😅
@1992disney And what really added fuel to the fire after taking down Splash Mountain was out of all characters, out of all movies, they decided to re-theme it to fit The Princess and the Frog. And they even had the audacity to name it _Tiana's_ Bayou Adventure. They had to make it about Tiana. You see, Disney are the ones who are racist. And so are the people who follow their crap. Disney is the woke racist company who will do anything to appease the loudest audience. What's truly racist is claiming Splash Mountain was racist for using charactes from a movie that isn't even racist in the first place, and then replacing it with a movie who's main protagonist is literally black. That's Disney who is the racist one. And the people who helped them tear down Splash Mountain to replace it with Tiana. And guess who the was the loudest group at the time that they were appeasing. The largest majority of people who were complaining about Splash Mountain were black. At the time of the controversy, they mostly made up the loudest group. I am no racist man. But I will challenge people who claim not to be racist who really are. People who whine and complain to other people to get what they want. And I'll also say this, there were MANY African Americans who enjoyed Splash Mountain just as much as I did. There were races of all kinds from around the world who enjoyed Splash Mountain. But to Disney, it's not race that matters, it's who's the loudest that matters. They are the people who Disney let's influence their choices. Anyways, sorry that was so long if you've made it to the end. I had to get that out because it's not talked about enough imo.
@lindseychan5493 I live close to Orlando. When I was younger, I used to go to the Disney parks all the time. But there was always something special to me about Splash Mountain. As a kid, the musical score, characters, and the overall ride were just... magical. There was something truly special about how they threw you into the world of the characters. When I heard that they were going to shut down Splash Mountain, there was nothing more I wanted than to ride it one last time. It was my favorite place to go to at Magic Kingdom. But it was already too late. The ride itself may be gone now. But the memories that I made will always stick with me.
@lindseychan5493 I'm glad you liked Splash Mountain. And glad to hear you like Song of the South, too! It's genuinely a great movie. A misunderstood one. It's always nice to find someone else who has watched it.
Ok but as a mom to 2 girls (one who just hit puberty,) Turning Red actually made it easier for my daughter to accept her body changing. She saw the movie first, made the connection and asked. We talked and she wasn't freaked out when it happened. I think it handled the topic beautifully if my special needs daughter grasped it.
Aladin is meant to be set in either ancient or medieval East Asia, possibly even a fictional representation of ancient Bagdad, a place where violence was pretty common place. Punishments for even minor crimes were severe, as seen when Jasmine almost looses her hand for stealing. As for Song of the South how is a southern black man supposed to sound?
None of These Movies Disturbed Me as a Kid, But I Never Watch or Heard these Classic Movies as a Kid Like Fritz The Cat, Watership Down, Felidae, Wizards, The Plague Dogs or Secret Life of Nimh as a Kid.
I loved most of these flicks as a kid, especially 'The secret of NIMH'. I never watched Fritz the Cat or Plauge of Dogs, but I did watch Watership Down....ONCE. My siblings & I decided that it wasn't going to be a family favorite, LOL. 😂 Generally speaking though we enjoyed movies that challenged our thinking & even made us sad. 'The Neverending Story', 'The Land Before Time', and 'An American Tale', were in regular rotation at my house. They dealt with death, fear, and hope. That's why we loved them. ❤🙂
I saw Fritz the Cat when I was a teenager, and fell in love with it. I still remember the limerick I wrote about it in English class: Have you ever heard of Fritz the cat? He's the weirdest thing fancy that. He eats dope and cocaine, And just loves novacaine, And that's the diet of Fritz the cat.
i watched the secret of NIMH as a kid.....the battle between Justin and Jenner "take what you can when you can", the death of Nicodemus & the scene where when the rats/mice escape NIMH the mice were sucked to their deaths in the air vents...only Jonathan & r ages survived. the brave little toaster....the AC meltdown. the 1st time i watched Akira......i saw the part where Tetsuo was in the stadium, he was zapped by a laser, loses his arm, starts to mutate & crushes his GF....i was not ready for that. i didn't see the beginning so i had no idea what i was watching.
I can't even imagine how many controversies the cartoon Alfred J. Kwak would've caused in America with the show doing episodes about fascism, kids doing drugs and apartheid
#7: There actually is no question, that was a naughty Easter egg, it was intentional. Apparently Disney staff - primarily the animators - like sneaking stuff into the movies. A friend's younger brother was quite artistic and in the early 90s earned a place in a Disney young animators summer camp thing. In their welcome packet was a list of such things hidden in Disney movies, I remember 3: This one, Aladdin saying "Teenagers, take off your clothes", and Lion King flopping down in the leaves, for a few frames it spells "SEX". (The Rescuers infamous one might have been on there too?). confirmed the latter 2 at the time, my brother happened to own both VHS tapes. Mermaid and Lion King were edited out in later releases due to becoming common knowledge (Lion King was edited to "SFX" to claim it's a shout-out to the sound effects team, so there are many people who believe that lie). What I love about the Aladdin one is that it's when the tiger is threatening him on the balcony, in the midst of "good tiger, nice tiger", it's when the "camera" is on Jasmine, THIS line is what seems to trigger her "wait, I recognize that voice" face. :) Wait, UA-cam has been shoving this suggestion in my face for days, thumbnail showing a sobbing hulking crow bending over someone, large bloody wound on his back. WHERE was that thumbnail? DON'T use thumbnails that aren't IN the video! It's dishonest and unnecessary. If I clicked/tapped for the thumbnail, I'd give this video a thumbs down for such disgusting practices.

The only good coming from “Hellfire” is how hard the song itself goes.

It became too known so in later releases Disney weaselled out and edited it to "SFX", then had the balls to claim that's what it was the whole time, a shout-out to the Sound Effects team. No. This was sloppy spin doctoring. Meanwhile I learned of this Easter Egg from a DISNEY PUBLISHED list of naughty Easter eggs, where they themselves flat out said it was "SEX". In the early 90s a friend's little brother earned a spot in a Disney young future animators summer camp thing, this list was in their welcome packet (this, the Little Mermaid one in this video, and Aladdin saying "Teenagers, take off your clothes", are the items I remember. I confirmed Lion King and Aladdin on VHS tapes at the time). Aladdin's one is my favourite because THAT line is what seems to get Jasmine to recognize him, LOL!
@@niceguy169 I listened to that Aladdin VHS moment over and over again, and, at least on the VHS version of the film, he actually says something akin to, "Good Raja, take off and go," as Jasmine's tiger was giving him a hard time.
It just kills me how often the announcer asks if the movie's creator meant if for a family audience. NO, dammit! So many of the films here are NOT family films. Not made to be family films. Not advertised as family films. Guh! Makes me crazier than I already am. Bakshi, in particular. Good gods.
Stories like Pinocchio and the hunchback of Notre Dame are not for kids. I think that Disney animation studio did a pretty good job of toned them down
I read both stories as a kid.
Fun Fact. Duke was supposed to die in the G. I. Joe the Movie, but because of the backlash over Optimus's death so he was just in a coma. But I still think the scene with Duke was more darker, he got impaled on the chest with a snake and there was blood.
The jackass moment was very disturbing 🫏🫏🫏🫏
If you think the movie was bad you should read the book, it's worse.
Fritz the Cat was literally X Rated.
It was about political and social differences. Of course it was going to be controversial. That's part of what made it the masterpiece it is. It chose to delve into the problems of the time. Something no other animated movie did at the time.
I agree, trying to make him like a slutty guy or I’m kind of scumbag guy or something. I don’t know. I remember that it’s a cat.
Or really, since.

@@pearlofthedarkage Oh.
Watership Down was just...let's just say god bless the poor children who watched this and thought it was a happy movie about frolicking rabbits. Only to be scarred and have nightmares.
Watership Down was never meant to be a kids film.
Song of the South is the movie that sticks
Killing off Optimus Prime was a huge mistake on Hasbro’s part. They got so much backlash for it due to underestimating how many kids cared about the character that they brought him back later on. What they learned from that is that you can kill Optimus Prime but that it can’t be permanent. Since many incarnations of Optimus Prime still do die but it’s never permanent he ALWAYS comes back sooner or later.
Man pink elephants on parade was the best part of dumbo, I don't get why people hate it-
They're just snowflakes
Probably because it gave them nightmares.
The thing people always forget about Disney's first few animated films is that they were made an older audience in mind. Particularly Snow White, Pinnochio, etc.
It's always deserved in the #1 place because how the batgirl scene in the dc animated movie is already the controversy of all controversies. This is why it's embarassing and as well as disappointing NOT just controversial.
Never saw the movie but I like the road lizard at 8:55
The hell scene from All Dogs Go To Heaven terrified me as a kid but solely because it was a scene about hell. The fact that it happened to a dog had nothing to do with it
I'm always FOREVER remembering, even in Animation is not always for kids but kids is already stubborn so they gonna watch this at every moment.
The cat mating scene from Felidae
Or the bloody murders.
Remember: Animation ≠ "For Children"
Aladdins opening song? Really? Yeah it's different but come on, we've all heard worse. Remember the music we had in 90s?

The Transformers the Movie change everything, a movie that change both animation and cinema forever
It kinda did. I remember reading an article that when Hasbro released movies of their big three (Transformers, GI Joe, MLP, in that order), Optimus' death had *such* an impact on audiences that when it came time to kill Duke in the GI Joe movie (they were phasing out his figure for the newer line), they instead had him "fall into a coma" and his recovery is mentioned almost in a throw-away line at the end of the film. If you watch the scene, Scarlett's animation doesn't come close to matching her dialogue and just the overall tone of the scene is one of sadness and loss.
Theres also a scene in the original cut of Plague Dogs where the remains of a hunter is found. He’s been eaten to the bone by the dogs and the fox.
One thing that bothered me in "Red", if turning into a panda is a family curse, why didn't the mother suspect even once that she might have turned into a panda, and instead thought it was her first period?
What you left out from Pinocchio on Pleasure Island was the final terrifying moment of Lampwick’s transformation, when - only in shadow - he screams “Mama!”…and that’s the last human word he speaks. Definitely unsettling.
Kids in the míd-20th century were built differently.

Not really. Any themes they had back then exists in modern tv/movies. Plus there are some things that are now allowed in modern tv/movies that censors wouldn't allow for back then.

There so many mess up moments in that movie.

While all dogs go to heaven has some dark moments, there was one thing that made the movie dark and sad: the little girl. Read that was her last role due to a horrible tragedy. Look it up. Even burt reynolds was broken up about it

I actually love the scenes in Dumbo, Bambi and The Hunchback of Notre Dame along with other earlier Disney movies. Kids need to experience the horrors of reality every once in awhile.
When I think about All Dogs Go to Heaven, all I can picture is Judith Barsi’s horrible father.
For me it's Land Before Time since ducky's catchphrase is on her grave
2:56 i never noticed the dad in the background until now. I just cant.😂😂
I didn't notice how he reacted until I clicked on the timestamp.
Surprised "Felidae" isn't on here. It's a, definitely adult intended, cartoon film about a murder mystery with talking cats...and I mean MURDER mystery, as in there are multiple graphic scenes of said cats being brutally killed and mutilated in every imaginable manner (one even involving a pregnant mom cat with her unborn kittens ripped out of her stomach).
Group sex scene from ‘Sausage Party.’
It was hilariously gross.
LOL
First time I watched that movie was with a group of friends, all smoking and drinking, when that scene came on we were all looking around the room like ummmmm.... You see that too, right? 🤣🤣🤣
Yeah. Really disgusting 🤢
I was laughing too hard to notice
That Little Mermaid one is an urban legend!
Nope. Definitely had the VHS with the penis cover and saw the priest boner all the time! 😂
Bambi’s mom death was unexpected but I never cried as a kid because the background music in a way told me that something bad was going to happen
The blender scene in the Brave Little Toaster is just one of many disturbing scenes. A few others: the death of the air conditioner, the death of the flower, the clown nightmare where the toaster gets dropped in a bathtub, the cars getting crushed to death and the native american truck committing suicide scene in the junkyard. That movie was pretty dark lmao.
This is one of the movies I want to see! Also, I like the bangs in your profile pic!

Good times.
EVERYTHING in the Brave Little Toaster is nightmare fuel.
I hate that movie.
I LOVE that movie. ❤ Scary stuff was typical in 80's kids movies; I didn't know any different.
@@lindseychan5493 Well my problem is that I think these things through too much. Like, if all our tools and appliances are alive, then aren't junkyards really graveyards? Should I feel guilt for not talking to my waffle iron enough? Is my curling iron bored?
It's worse than Toy Story.
@TheComedyGeek I get that. As a kid I didn't see it that way....I guess because my family held on to things as long as possible. We repaired stuff, not just electronics...but shoes even. So as a kid I viewed the toaster & VCR as eternal. 😅 Toys I had more of an attachment to because the 'relationship' was more personal & there was no toy repair place to take them to if they were damaged.
All of them were good choices, but as far as I can think of, some from animated movies would be
"Felidae," a 1994 German animated movie about a cat who is a detective who is solving brutal murders from other cats. Some of the cats are experimented into becoming mutant cats, and the story itself pushes some boundaries.
For "Beetlejuice" 1988, I had a few thoughts about the plotline: some of my family members believed the movie was too anti-religious. It was nothing pleasant for it to be a kid's movie, and it mentioned some adult content like what "Who Framed Roger Rabbit" did.
Oh yeah, is it possible for "Coraline" 2009 to be a creepy kids' movie and have some parts that are a bit shocking to understand? Between imagination and reality, can you mess up your mind to determine which side you should choose as a kid? Well, I wished Coraline didn't find the doorway to the other side, or else, she could've ended up what those ghost kids did.
Dante's Inferno an Animated Epic (2010) Was a Surprisingly badass movie and I ate that up like Candy really bloody gory action packed movie
Did you ever watch the animated art film Dante’s Inferno (2007)
Oh yeah I completely forgot about Dante!
IMO, that infamous Plague Dogs moment should be #1.
I don't care how controversial it may be, or whatever anyone might say.
Fritz the Cat is a masterpiece of a film, an animated one at that. And it will forever be.
Absolutely!
@@desperadox7565 Thanks, man 👍
The Animation is not bad but the Crow Near Death Scene is still shocking.
That was a cool movie.
I love Song of the South.
Top 20 Best Animated DC Shows Ever!
The fact that we as a society still treat animation as entertainment for just kids is insane!

Fritz the cat was dope as hell
A scene that needs to be on this list is a scene from The Black Cauldron, the Disney film where the character Gurgi sacrifices himself by jumping into the Black Cauldron to kill the Cauldron-born and save his friends. Seeing a character commit suicide to save his friends is definitely worthy of being on this list.
Did u finish the movie?
2:40 *Becoming the red panda
Yeah, Panda bears and red pandas are in two different families.
Song of the South is in my top 5 favorite Disney movies, and it's is one of my favorite animated movies in general. Albeit it is technically a hybrid film. People have no clue what their ranting about when talking about the movie because they haven't seen it.
First of all, it takes place in the Reconstruction Era.
There are no slaves in the movie.
And nobody is treated as a slave.
The movie is about a boy named Johnny whose father leaves him. Uncle Remus looks after him and comforts him while his father is gone. Kind of almost becoming his father figure throughout the movie. Remus teaches him valuable lessons about outsmarting people who want to hurt him and valuing the people around him.
The live-action segments are beautifully written and emotional. You come to love the relationship Johnny and Uncle Remus develop throughout the movie.
And the animated sections are also beautiful. Bre'r Fox is a genuinely great villain. Bre'r Rabbit is a fun and cunning character. And Bre'r Bear and Bre'r Fox's relationship is also great.
You can say that the movie is "racist" for taking place during the Reconstruction Era, which would honestly be pretty stupid because a time period can't be racist. But outside of that, there is absolutely NOTHING racist or wrong with the movie.
And if you so want to try and prove me wrong, please, go ahead and watch the movie. Find something racist in it outside of the time period it takes place in.
I really like the movie too. The only other ppl I know who have seen it are my siblings, and one grade school friend. Anyone else I've spoken to about it have never actually seen it. The subject of this movie has been brought up a lot because I live in Orlando, only 10 minutes from Walt Disney World. When it was announced that Splash Mountain was going to be closed, all ppl would talk about was Song of the South. Funny thing was they were talking about a movie they knew zero about. Splash Mountain is gone now, along with it's amazing musical score, but the parks are always changing....so it's something I'm used to. I still miss Mr.Toad's Wild Ride. 😅
And those are the same people who had Splash Mountain replaced with the disaster that is Tiana's Bayou Adventure for the same reason.
@1992disney And what really added fuel to the fire after taking down Splash Mountain was out of all characters, out of all movies, they decided to re-theme it to fit The Princess and the Frog. And they even had the audacity to name it _Tiana's_ Bayou Adventure. They had to make it about Tiana.
You see, Disney are the ones who are racist. And so are the people who follow their crap. Disney is the woke racist company who will do anything to appease the loudest audience.
What's truly racist is claiming Splash Mountain was racist for using charactes from a movie that isn't even racist in the first place, and then replacing it with a movie who's main protagonist is literally black.
That's Disney who is the racist one. And the people who helped them tear down Splash Mountain to replace it with Tiana. And guess who the was the loudest group at the time that they were appeasing. The largest majority of people who were complaining about Splash Mountain were black. At the time of the controversy, they mostly made up the loudest group.
I am no racist man. But I will challenge people who claim not to be racist who really are. People who whine and complain to other people to get what they want. And I'll also say this, there were MANY African Americans who enjoyed Splash Mountain just as much as I did. There were races of all kinds from around the world who enjoyed Splash Mountain.
But to Disney, it's not race that matters, it's who's the loudest that matters. They are the people who Disney let's influence their choices.
Anyways, sorry that was so long if you've made it to the end. I had to get that out because it's not talked about enough imo.
@lindseychan5493 I live close to Orlando. When I was younger, I used to go to the Disney parks all the time. But there was always something special to me about Splash Mountain. As a kid, the musical score, characters, and the overall ride were just... magical.
There was something truly special about how they threw you into the world of the characters.
When I heard that they were going to shut down Splash Mountain, there was nothing more I wanted than to ride it one last time. It was my favorite place to go to at Magic Kingdom. But it was already too late.
The ride itself may be gone now. But the memories that I made will always stick with me.
@lindseychan5493 I'm glad you liked Splash Mountain. And glad to hear you like Song of the South, too! It's genuinely a great movie. A misunderstood one. It's always nice to find someone else who has watched it.
Ok but as a mom to 2 girls (one who just hit puberty,) Turning Red actually made it easier for my daughter to accept her body changing. She saw the movie first, made the connection and asked. We talked and she wasn't freaked out when it happened. I think it handled the topic beautifully if my special needs daughter grasped it.
Aladin is meant to be set in either ancient or medieval East Asia, possibly even a fictional representation of ancient Bagdad, a place where violence was pretty common place. Punishments for even minor crimes were severe, as seen when Jasmine almost looses her hand for stealing. As for Song of the South how is a southern black man supposed to sound?
Its more for that fact that the character is thinking fondly of slavery and wants to go back
@@GrandInfernoElite I don't remember that part. I thought the movie was about Uncle Remus telling the stories of Briar Rabbit to the boy.
@@GrandInfernoEliteWrong. He was free because the movie took place during the Reconstruction Era, when slavery was abolished.
Um, Hazel was the main character in Watership Down.
None of These Movies Disturbed Me as a Kid, But I Never Watch or Heard these Classic Movies as a Kid Like Fritz The Cat, Watership Down, Felidae, Wizards, The Plague Dogs or Secret Life of Nimh as a Kid.
I loved most of these flicks as a kid, especially 'The secret of NIMH'. I never watched Fritz the Cat or Plauge of Dogs, but I did watch Watership Down....ONCE. My siblings & I decided that it wasn't going to be a family favorite, LOL. 😂 Generally speaking though we enjoyed movies that challenged our thinking & even made us sad. 'The Neverending Story', 'The Land Before Time', and 'An American Tale', were in regular rotation at my house. They dealt with death, fear, and hope. That's why we loved them. ❤🙂
Honestly, Bambi was toned down compared to the book.
Song of the South....got the Japanese laser disc.
I saw Fritz the Cat when I was a teenager, and fell in love with it. I still remember the limerick I wrote about it in English class:
Have you ever heard of Fritz the cat?
He's the weirdest thing fancy that.
He eats dope and cocaine,
And just loves novacaine,
And that's the diet of Fritz the cat.
Chicken Run is the best
Number one Batman and Batgirl having sex that was really disturbing
i watched the secret of NIMH as a kid.....the battle between Justin and Jenner "take what you can when you can", the death of Nicodemus & the scene where when the rats/mice escape NIMH the mice were sucked to their deaths in the air vents...only Jonathan & r ages survived.
the brave little toaster....the AC meltdown.
the 1st time i watched Akira......i saw the part where Tetsuo was in the stadium, he was zapped by a laser, loses his arm, starts to mutate & crushes his GF....i was not ready for that. i didn't see the beginning so i had no idea what i was watching.

#7: There actually is no question, that was a naughty Easter egg, it was intentional. Apparently Disney staff - primarily the animators - like sneaking stuff into the movies. A friend's younger brother was quite artistic and in the early 90s earned a place in a Disney young animators summer camp thing. In their welcome packet was a list of such things hidden in Disney movies, I remember 3: This one, Aladdin saying "Teenagers, take off your clothes", and Lion King flopping down in the leaves, for a few frames it spells "SEX". (The Rescuers infamous one might have been on there too?). confirmed the latter 2 at the time, my brother happened to own both VHS tapes. Mermaid and Lion King were edited out in later releases due to becoming common knowledge (Lion King was edited to "SFX" to claim it's a shout-out to the sound effects team, so there are many people who believe that lie). What I love about the Aladdin one is that it's when the tiger is threatening him on the balcony, in the midst of "good tiger, nice tiger", it's when the "camera" is on Jasmine, THIS line is what seems to trigger her "wait, I recognize that voice" face. :)
Wait, UA-cam has been shoving this suggestion in my face for days, thumbnail showing a sobbing hulking crow bending over someone, large bloody wound on his back. WHERE was that thumbnail? DON'T use thumbnails that aren't IN the video! It's dishonest and unnecessary. If I clicked/tapped for the thumbnail, I'd give this video a thumbs down for such disgusting practices.
"Plague Dogs" is the most traumatizing animated film I have ever seen. I saw it as an adult in it's original run and I left the theater in tears.
The whole movie of fritz the cat is controversial.
As a kid I was confused by Hellfire in Pinocchio. Now that I’m older, I’m disturbed by the implications of the lyrics
