10 Amazing Hidden Details In Disney Films

There are some who might say a movie’s entire message is sent by how it begins, and how it ends. But rarely do directors actually treat their first and final shots with so much importance. Unforgettable views, moments of triumph, or witty dialogue can all make a cool way to improve cut-to-black and end credits seem perfectly timed, but some directors go the extra mile, crafting a start and finish that add an extra level of storytelling for viewers paying close attent


As one of the most successful movies Disney has ever released, we're willing to bet that Easter Eggs and references to Frozen are just beginning. The minds behind Big Hero 6 are clearly fans - and hold a serious grudge against Hans, the would-be king who tried to kill both of Frozen 's leading ladies. A statue of Hans can be seen for just a moment before Baymax completely destroys it. If that weren't enough, his face can be seen gracing a Wanted poster in a San Fransokyo police stat


In 1957, the first messages encouraging moviegoers to buy Coca-Cola and popcorn were spliced into movie theater film strips, and audiences did just that. The age of subliminal messaging in entertainment was born, and has been used as a running gag in movies like Fight Club , or as a genuine attempt to influence audiences without them realizing


Two sequels followed, but when Neo finally ended the war in his epic battle with Agent Smith, their fight is set at that exact intersection . When the two slam into the street, you can even catch a glimpse of the phonebooth from the first f


Before anyone starts panicking about what movies might secretly be doing to their brains, here's the twist: no one has ever been able to reproduce the original study’s effects, with the researcher later admitting he actually fabricated the entire study. So rest easy: there’s still no evidence subliminal advertising really works. Seen any subliminal messages in movies that we missed?

For those not versed in Harry Potter mythology, we'll just say that to bring down Lord Voldemort, the three Deathly Hallows were sort of an important combination. It wasn't until the second last book that audiences learned that a cloak, stone, and Elder Wand held the key to victory, but the idea was teased ahead of time. As in, two full movies ahead of time. In one of the franchise's best easter eggs, Dumbledore tells Harry that he's been searching for such a detail that held the secret to defeating Voldemort - but the answer is literally right in front of him, in the form of a 3D version of the Deathly Hallows symbols stored in his own off

It's not often that filmmakers include messages in the credits, but sometimes they do so in order to offer special thanks to those that helped make the movie or they take the time to add in just one more joke. In the end credits of Frozen , the filmmakers included a message to assure audiences that Kristoff's assertion that all men eat their own boogers is his opinion only, and it does "not reflect the views or opinions of The Walt Disney Company or the filmmakers." However, it does seem that Disney, like Kristoff, takes the issue of ingesting nose mucus very seriou


Gore Verbinski's remake of this Japanese horror film takes the idea that watching movies affects us, and stretches it to a terrifying extreme. The meta concept is reinforced when single frames from the haunted videotape flash up during other scenes in the movie. Again, not all copies of the film feature the same frames. But fans can all catch a flash of The Ring at the very start of the movie, where it meshes with the crescent moon in the DreamWorks logo. These hidden frames are worth re-watching the movie all on their own - just don't answer the phone when you’re finis


Zack Snyder and Warner Bros. wanted to make a clean start with Man of Steel , but that didn't mean the director wanted to ignore the version of the DC hero who came before, specifically, the original films from director Richard Donner. The updated version of the ship that brought Kal-El to Earth played a big part in the story, but when Kal-El had his escape explained by his (digital) father Jor-El, the version of the ship shown is obviously modeled after Donner's version, not Snyde


In 1986, Steve Jobs purchased the Computer Graphics Division from George Lucas's Lucasfilm and established the independent company we now know to be Pixar. In honor of the man who also founded Apple, Pixar has included references to the tech company or Jobs himself in a number of films. Most notably, the titular robotic hero of Wall-E makes the recognizable Mac startup chime when he's done charging, and Apple products like computers and iPods are shown throughout Toy Story 3 . Finally, after passing away in 2011, the end credits of Brave featured a dedication to Jobs in memory of his contribution to Pixar. That last one may not necessarily be hidden, but it's worth mention
