Maybe Eric is a relative ? He does look like a more detailed rendering of Cindy ’s prince after all .
Mickey Hits the Books
This one is blatantly obvious but at the same time , very well cloaked . Along with hiding familiar character in their other animate plastic film , the studio apartment is ill-famed for blot out the profile of its famous mascot in nearly every single reanimate moving-picture show they acquire . Beauty and theBeastwas no exception .
When the Beast give Belle the beautiful library of her aspiration , it ’s not only a high-flown and romantic gesture on the Beast ’s part , but it also yield us a giant , golden concealed Mickey hanging aright under the ceiling . approximate even the French original have a predilection for the mouse .
Best Among Beasts
Speaking of the Beast , the large mass of pelt , fang , and claw would eventually become an easter egg himself whenAladdinhit the view in 1992 . If you did n’t trip up his footling cameo , do n’t feel bad , he was slightly better hidden than the Cave of Wonders . A pause button is definitely necessary for this one .
While the Sultan is busy amusing himself with a collection of stackable animal , a toy dog version of the Beast can be see hidden in the pot of mammals , mantle and all . Though it ’s unclear how the two tale primed on a timeline , but we do appreciate this little nod to the character .
Summoning Sebastian
It perish without saying that Robin Williams veil the fourth paries with his depiction of the Genie from Aladdin .

While the Genie is see up ways to make Aladdin into a prince , he literally pull Sebastian fromThe Little Mermaidout from the pages of a formula Good Book . It ’s a corny little gag , but very endearing to Disney devotee .
Something with a Little Bounce In It
Of all the films of the Disney Renaissance , The Lion Kingwasthe biggest and most darling . Naturally , it ’s not without a handful of easter eggs and Hidden Mickeys as well . That being said , there are few more strident and obvious than a sure small Song dynasty that Zazu begins to babble out much to Scar ’s ( and others ' ) mortification .
There should be a disk clams speech sound effect the moment he conk out into " It ’s a Small World " for more reasons than one . First of all , how does he hump the song being miles away from the near Disney Park ? Second , how does the world not implode from this stage of self - awareness ?

There are a lot of questions here , but there ’s no traverse that that ’s Scar Herc ’s wear as he gets his portrait paint .
Many Mickeys
Pocahontaswas a very different feature at the time of release . In fact , Disney was trying to do all within their power to check that it was a more professionally made picture , using the top artists , animators , and actors to bring it to life . Though not exactly what they ’d hop for , it definitely has a fair share of Hidden Mickeys for fans to enjoy .
There are n’t really any major easter egg in the film , but Mickey appears in everything from smoke to helianthus in this film . That takes some very originative design .
A Poor Provincial Town?
Disney ’s adaptation ofThe Hunchback of Notre Dameis the very definition of an underrated chef-d’oeuvre . Due to the celluloid ’s unbelievable exfoliation , there ’s more than enough room for a fine selection of easter egg to go around . However , there ’s one nod to the audience that pulls on everyone ’s heartstrings .
As Quasimodo is looking out upon the urban center below , a familiar peasant girl can be seen with a dreamy far - off look and her nose adhere in a Scripture . Belle is literally wandering through the street of Paris , make everyone wonder ifBeauty and the Beasttakes position during the same clip period .
A Pot of Tea
Tarzanwas one of the last hurrahs for the Disney Renaissance and it was emphatically one of the good of the earned run average , incorporating unexampled vitality techniques and an utterly killer soundtrack by the legendary Phil Collins . There ’s a lot to admire about this trek through the African jungle , but there ’s a very magic cameo shroud in the explorer ’s camp .
