But, Robert's outfit at the ball looks a lot like Beast's, and the camera focuses on the chandelier, which may be a reflection of that film.
Also, Morgan, the little girl, has a Cinderella book in her room.
Dumbo is playing on the hotel TV.
You also see a scene from a live-action version of Robin Hood, but I can't tell if it's the Disney version.

I don't think anyone has mentioned this yet... I noticed in the last scene after they are all playing in Morgan's room the camera pulls back through the window and we see the outside of the building. There are what looks to me like carvings in the stone very much like the animal carvings we see in Snow White. |

I'm convinced that the green troll who deep down is really a nice guy is their homage to "Shrek".
And I suspect that Pip the chipmunk was reenacting "The Passion of the Christ" with that coat hanger. :-)

| Inkan1969 Thu 12/13/2007 3:52p | I just remembered another reference. There's supposed to be a promotional "Snow White" comic book that came out right before the movie. That comic book featured a scene that got dropped from the movie of Snow White making a model of the prince she wishes for out of pots and old clothes. Exactly the same thing Giselle did at the beginning.

I believe that the song "So Close" is played in 6/8, not 4/4, which is still a waltz beat. :) |

The Queen refers to Giselle as that "forest rat," in the same manner that Jafar refers to Aladdin as that "street rat." |

| christiemarsh88 Tue 1/15/2008 1:18p | Someone will need to check this next time they see the movie, but I'm pretty sure I saw Pumbaa waiting in line to get his book signed by Pip at the end.
Actually, I just looked on Google, and this is confirmed. He's got the book balanced on top of his head. |
