I always wondered what is up with those sex sulbliminal messages in Aladdin, Lion King and Little Mermaid.

I get subliminal messages in commercials to get you to buy something, but in this case what do they gain from suggesting sex?

In high school kids would try to get secretly dirty messages published as their senior quote, and I have to imagine Disney animators have a similar mindset

What do you mean not real? The one in Lion King was pretty explicit and they even admitted to intentionally wanting the dust to form letters. They only said that it wasn't sex what they were trying to spell but something else, which is dumb lol

I thought it said SFX because that was the name of the team or something.

Me neither. I'd been hearing about them for but its not like I noticed when I watched as a kid. Although I had dvds not vhs so maybe it's different.

I was just recently reminded about them cause of a youtube video..and the Aladdin one seemed eerie.

This is it. I had multiple teachers who worked for Disney during those years. One even worked in the animation department. He stated half of the artist were gay, closeted, and repressed. The artists also spent months drawing the same beautiful girl over and over. He said doing that makes you bored and very pent up.

Definitely, knew about most of these back then. The Lion King and Aladdin ones were the scene I personally saw as a kid. The non-Disney ones are the crazy ones to me though.

That's interesting actually. The excuse for the dick-castle on the cover of the little mermaid was something similar, allegedly the guy who did it was overworked when he did that one cause he thought it would be fun.

Which one do you mean?

Not sure if real or edit, but there's a scene in Eldorado that is very sus. Unsure about others as i was a Disney kid.

The crazy thing to me is that apparently this was only recently discovered(relatively). IIRC, it was because the higher definition releases made it possible to be spotted.

Wrong.
It was discovered pretty early when the movie was still in theaters and Disney changed it. They still had both versions in their vault and streamed the wrong version first on their streaming services, which made people believe it was unnoticed until now.
It was known in the 80s.

If you want dirty animators made stuff that was in until relative recently, then Jessica Rabbit is pantyless in a frame. Hard to see on VHS, but visible on Laserdisc. It got removed when the movie hit DVD.

Look, I'm just saying, I don't care if Disney actually was trying to spell SFX. They would have to know that SFX looks very much like another word, and especially with how the dust looks like it's branching at the bottom of the F, you can't tell me the thought didn't cross their mind. They totally just ran with it.

Tbh, I don't even think it's bad, considering only the overly-analytical would ever notice such a thing.

Lol exactly. That's why the explanation of what they were going for is silly. And that E looks more like an E to me.

I don't think it's bad either if it was all just done for the funsies. More like I had this doubt if there was some dark explanation for it cause the notion of adding sex subliminals for no reason seemed odd. And the Aladdin one especially seemed kinda unnerving.

When he says Good tiger. Take off. Scat. Go!, which even makes sense in the scene, and you hear him talk about teenagers getting undressed, then you hear what you want to hear.

It's literally the opposite. The phrase you're saying is what I should hear naturally. The fact that I have to make an effort to "find it" is what makes it shady.

I don't.

I said I have to make an effort to find the phrase. Meaning, what you just said is merely what google just told you the line is supposed to be.
Those words are literally not said. Phonetically there is no "come on, scat, go".

I never heard the "good teenagers" part, I always just heard the "take off your clothes". As a kid I wasn't told about this, I heard it and thought it was really odd. Even now I still here it, but I default to the creators explanations.

Oh nice! So, it's true that with fillers or little reactions, which usually weren't actually in the script, you have something written in at that moment, then mixing "constructs" a line to make it fit right, which sometimes overlaps or makes words sound cut off or unintelligible.

The thing is the word Tiger they claim to be the line here, just phonetically is absent. He mightve been saying kitty at best, let's assume that was it. But there is an absolutely clear grs at the end even if the word didn't start with teen but "keet" (kitty).
As for the alleged rest. Take off is completely clear. But there is no Scat. Go either.

I slowed it down. Just trying to be completely non biased and this is what it sounds like

0:06 come dooown kitty
0:09 mon scat
0:10 come on, good teenagers.
0:12 take off _ clothes.

clothes is airy and barely perceptible, it could've been a badly mixed/bad diction from the actor "Go" too.

I don't think so at all.

So it could actually have meant to be an F and they didn't realize that trail changed the letter.
The trail of the F makes it look like an E more than an F with defined trail.
