No one ever said Disney movies were only made for kids, and it seems that with so much of
the adult humor slipped in, the filmmakers are keenly aware of how broad of an audience
their films receive.
Children may be savvier with each generation with the help of social media and web sites
that sneak through the parental blocks, but some adult humor still goes over the head
of most kids.
There are some kid’s movies that only insinuate something naughty while others are anything
but subtle.
Here are 10 Dirty Jokes Hidden in Famous Disney Movies.
Beauty and the Beast Sometimes Disney does not have to make a single
joke to be dirty but creates an entire character that seems a bit too adult for young minds
to fathom.
Babette is a French feather duster and an oddly sexy character when considering she
is a household cleaning tool.
Luckily, the end of the film shows that being attracted to Babette is not without merit
as the human version is quite a catch.
However, she is still animated so it is not a wholly rational attraction.
Beyond illustrating a provocative French maid duster which is clearly a reference to the
sexual fantasy of a scantily clad maid with a saucy accent, she also has a physical relationship
with French candlestick Lumiere.
Their sensual exchanges are much funnier to the older crowd.
One disturbing moment in the film shows a man plucking the feathers from Babette’s
lower half.
Since her feathers are her skirt while she’s a duster, the man gets a little too aggressive
and handsy for a kid’s movie.
So while the presence of Babette is an amusing joke, the treatment of her is occasionally
alarming.
Hercules Greek tragedy and Disney do not seem like the most logical pairing so it was a
bit mind boggling when Disney’s Hercules references the play, Oedipus Rex.
To be fair, the character of Hercules is the son of Gods in Greek Mythology, so mentioning
the play almost makes sense.
In the film, Hercules speaks with his love interest Meg, where he brings up the tragic
play of Oedipus the King by saying “That play, the Oedipus thing.
Man, I thought I had problems”.
It is a brilliant joke for those aware of the Oedipus story and considering the many
other allusions to Oedipus in the animated film including the journey Hercules makes
to Thebes which is the same place Oedipus is king, the film certainly has layers.
Even though the film is a tale of characters from Greek mythology, noting a play in which
the main character murders his father, marries his own mother and then gouges his eyes out
at the end, is not kid’s stuff.
The shocking reference is one of the slyest dirty jokes in Disney films as it is only
inappropriate for those who know the story and only the most inquisitive kids would ponder
the meaning of such a wisecrack
Toy Story Toy Story was the first Pixar film thus beginning
the long tradition of films for children that are often loved by adults just as much.
In the film, through a series of unfortunate actions Buzz and Woody end up in the home
of neighbor miscreant Sid.
Sid uses his toys for demented experiments including taking them apart and attaching
random pieces of toys and other items found in the home to create a whole other horrific
object.
Sid has problems, or perhaps he is a burgeoning found-art genius who isn’t appreciated in
his own time.
One of his pieces is a pair of Barbie or similar doll, legs with the torso of a hook.
It certainly is a strange creation but it also is a literal hooker.
The Pixar animators were probably pretty proud of themselves for being both clever and a
bit too on-the-nose with their design and word play.
Muppets Treasure Island The Muppets have always been more than just
foam and fleece.
Even though they are puppets and usually keep their material family friendly, everyone can
enjoy Kermit and the gang.
Muppet Treasure Island was not released by Disney but it was their production.
The film is rated G which suggests that it is perfectly fine for general audiences and
since there is nothing overtly sexual or offensive, the MPAA rating is acceptable.
Leave it to Miss Piggy to be the naughty one with this dirty joke.
After Kermit returns from sea, Miss Piggy apprises him of what she has been up to while
he was gone which includes fraternizing with other men.
It all still seems innocent enough as she is a young and vibrant porcine around town
and deserves the company of men and does not specify the activities.
However, things are cleared up once Piggy, and Kermit, run into Long John Silver, and
Piggy emphasizes the word “Long” to which Kermit asks “Him too?”
The joke both assures audiences that Miss Piggy was not keeping things platonic with
her gentlemen callers and it also gives audiences too much information about what is hiding
under the pirate’s trousers.
Inside Out Inside Out is a sweet family film about growing
up and had plenty adults bawling like children.
The actual children were probably not nearly as touched by the exploration and pain of
adolescence.
As the many emotions who hang out inside the mind of a young girl, characters such as disgust,
anger, and sadness spend plenty of time together.
Just like any work friends, the characters get into a lot of discussions that may not
be directly related to the task at hand.
One of these moments is when Fear asks whether the sound they heard came from a bear to which
Disgust informs him that bears do not live in San Francisco.
Anger notes that he saw a big hairy guy who he thought was a bear.
A bear is a common term used in the LGBTQ culture for a certain type of burly, and typically
hairy, gay man and considering the film’s location of San Francisco, this is obviously
a wink to the community.
The dirty joke in Inside Out is not scandalous, nor is it particularly dirty but it is a fairly
adult reference.
101 Dalmatian Live action adaptations of cartoons or animated
films can sometimes feel bizarre.
When audiences have grown accustomed to the animated classic, any actors or sets may seem
surreal.
Disney’s 1996 live action version of their 1961 perennial favorite stars Glenn Close
who gives an entirely new generation of children nightmares as the puppy-killing-all-in-the-name-of-fashion,
Cruella De vil.
There are a few humorous jokes that somehow made it past the censors such as one puppy-napper
telling another that taxidermied animals give him a shrinky winky making audiences rest
easy that the dog nappers are not complete weirdos who get their jollies from stuffed
roadkill.
However, 101 Dalmatians dirtiest joke deserves a spot on our list as it concerns bestiality.
After Roger and Anita share their exciting news of expecting a new baby, Cruella De Vil
does not say much.
When they let her know that they are expecting puppies, De Vil responds “Well, you’ve
been a busy boy, haven’t you?”
While it is obvious that the puppies are the work of Pongo and Perdy, Disney managed to
fit in a truly filthy and disturbing joke in a children’s flick.
The Avengers The next dirty joke is so hidden you would
need a British slang to English dictionary to even catch it.
Since The Avengers is rated PG-13, it can get away with a lot more than some of the
other movies on this list.
However, even with its more mature audience, not every insult can be so blatant.
After the Avengers team captures bad guy Loki, he can be seen seething with hatred which
is directed toward Black Widow.
He mumbles to himself about how the Avengers are failures and provides a few more forms
of mockery.
One term he uses for Ms. Romanoff is a “Mewling quim” which may not immediately activate
any alarm bells.
For those who may not know, quim is a word in British slang for female genitals.
Loki is basically calling Black Widow a whining…
well, you know.
So while Loki‘s “See you next Tuesday” slam is not exactly a joke in itself, the
sneaky way in which Joss Whedon slipped the forbidden word for PG-13 audiences, is hilarious.
Toy Story 3 Since the Toy Story franchise is rife with
innuendo, it seems impossible to narrow down the dirty jokes.
While Buzz Lightyear’s excitement in Toy Story 2 displayed by his erecting wings is
a solid example of Disney’s naughty immaturity, we don’t want to forget the one that may
be overlooked in Toy Story 3 but not because of its subtlety which it severely lacks.
In Toy story 3, Andy has grown up and moves away to college.
Since he has no use for his toys, they end up as donations in a local day care.
As the toys begin to interact with the other toys that have been there for years, Barbie
meets her dream man, Ken.
As the two walk toward each other, the attraction is palpable.in part because the scene is in
slow motion with the song “Dreamweaver” playing in the background but mostly because
it is Barbie and Ken, Mattel’s royal couple.
As the two give each other compliments, Barbie says “Nice ascot”.
Sure, Ken is wearing an ascot but we suspect Barbie’s emphasis on the “as” was no
accident and was certainly admiring Ken’s derriere.
Cars 2 The newer films made by Disney seem to only
be dirty for those who are aware of modern terminology.
One example of this is an event that takes place in Cars 2.
The beat up old cars are having a party.
The cars in question are in the style of Pinto and Pacers which are well known for being
lemons.
The fact that all of these cars are together while also using lemons as their centerpieces
is what many would consider cute and even funny.
However, for those who grew up with the internet, the term lemon party is something completely
different.
Deep in the dark underbelly of the internet, you may find that a lemon party is not exactly
a squeaky clean Disney event.
We won’t spell it out for you but if you are curious, you can search for it yourself
but please be sure to keep the safe search on and whatever you do, do not look at images.
Zootopia Disney’s 2016 smash success, Zootopia is
beloved by critics and audiences for its endearing story of a smart and motivated rabbit reaching
her goal of being the first bunny police officer in the big city of Zootopia.
The bunny, Judy Hopps is laughed at for her big dreams since she is an animal of prey
and bunnies are not known for being tough.
She is tough though and never says quit.
Although she makes it through the police academy, she is given the dull and unglamorous job
of meter maid.
Judy knows giving animals tickets for petty crimes is beneath her as she has the fire
in her to stop real crime.
Since she puts everything she’s got in everything she does, she is dedicated to doling out tickets
too.
Zootopia is definitely appropriate for the kids and it teaches them useful lessons about
acceptance and working hard to achieve what you want, but it also gets a prime dirty joke
in there for good measure.
While adding up the fines for Nick, the sly fox, Judy recounts all of the fines together
and states, “I might be just a dumb bunny, but we are good at multiplying”.
The look on Nick’s face says everything.
It is a naughty joke for such a nice bunny.
