Disney Movie Facts That Will Shock You 

To get this out of the way, no, the Prince (Prince Florian) was not 31 when he first met Snow White. He's actually 18 years old. While it's still not an appropriate number, it's at least better than how old he's presumed to be by popular belief. This evidence comes straight from a book called The Art Of Walt Disney: A Special Collection written by Christopher Finch. The book itself is compiled with and chronicles the artistic achievements and history of Walt Disney. In it, there is an outline that references both Snow White and Prince Florian's ages that were concieved back in 1934. So a few years before the film was released. And both of their ages were stated as being 14 and 18 years old respectively. From what I could gather, the whole "Prince Florian is 31" thing got started by a tweet (I will not mention the user by name for privacy reasons) which sited one or two articles that do not site they're own sources, nor even explain the reasonings behind this "fact". One last notable detail, the idea of a 14 year old marrying, or even dating, a 31 year old would've been seen as taboo back in the 1930's. Regardless of the time period the original fairytale was first created in, there was a bit more sensibility and propriety when it came to marriage in 1930's America, with the age of consent at the time commonly being 18 years old. With Walt Disney himself being a good faith Christian, I doubt that he would've approved of such an inappropriate pairing in his first animated film, especially one that he risked everything on being a success.

Although prince florian is 31 and Snow White is 14 it is appropriate to the time period, as young princesses would be married even to men that where in their 50s or 60s. It is in fact inappropriate and maybe not such a good role model for young ones today. But we still love these movies

None of those ages were really concerning to me. People seem to forget that the time periods portrayed in those movies are completely different from our time period. Those ages (and age gaps) were perfectly normal for those periods

The original ‘King Triton’ looked like an evil genie. Yes, I know there’s no genie in “The Little Mermaid”.

How is Cruella 65 when she and Anita were classmates and Anita is nowhere near 65?

The OG kittens in “Aristocats” were/are as cute as the ones that were in the movie

You should take the lyrics to Be My Guest with several pinches of salt. You see it's NOT about wherever The Beast was 10 when the beast curse happened, but when the last time they had guests. They didn't say it was because of the curse or something else. It simply could be that when Beast were 10, something happened, possibly his parents died and that, along with him being spoiled rotten, made him extremely bitter, not wanting to welcome guests to his castle. If you look at the portrait and the stain glass window, he doesn't look like 10 there but at least 15 or 16. Why is it that so many believe that the curse happened 10 years before the story? Damn, people take things too literally instead of reading in-between the lines! Regarding the age of the objects (Lumiére, Cogsworth, Mrs. Potts, Chip and the others), it makes sense that they didn't age when they were transformed into objects, hence why Chip hasn't aged. Sure, Mrs Pott looks a lot older than she should she might have Chip at a late age and/or got aged due to stress. Would make sense having such a demanding master who was constantly pampered to keep him on his good side, condsindering how aggressive he was as a Beast before Belle managed to tame him and made him more human (figuritvely at first). Note that the narrator pointed out that The Prince was spoiled, selfish and mean in the prolouge hence why he wasn't too nice toward the old hag, starting the whole mess.

Amazing video 👌

During time when many of these movies were set the girls were often significantly younger than their princes. In real life Laura Wilder (née Ingalls was 18 when she married the real life Almanzo Wilder, who was 28.

Correction, Woody would be 68 since Toy Story 3 & Toy Story 4 are set in the year 2007.

Luca kind of sounds like Miguel of a Coco

Snow whites prince was 31, while she was only 14!

Belle was 19 in Beauty and the Beast, and Adam was only 10-11 years old when he was cursed for practicing Stranger Danger.

I always thought that Alice was 12 years old, by the way she looks.

I thought crush was the small turtle he saved cause if he was the big turtle he would be dead

‘Dumbo’s’ early iterations kind of resemble ‘Horton’ in “Horton Hears a Who” by Dr. Seuss.

Not disney but as an adult I watched "all dogs go to heaven" and was like whoa! Underground casino, murder, kidnapping ans taught stealing... so many crimes i didnt realize...

The Paul Bunyan poster in Sid's room and seen again in monsters Inc is a reference to the Paul Bunyan animation that Disney did back in 1958

To go along with the miss potts age. In the real version of beauty and the beast, when le foo (gastons apprentice) goes to the castle with gaston and said "you must be the talking tea cup, and you must be his grandmother" and then mrs potts freaks out and yells "GRANMOTHER?? ATTACK!" So she didnt like the idea of being a grandmother.

Some of the characters are good at fighting and traveling.

1:22Alice doesn’t look like 7 years old

Margaret Kerry inspired the look of Tinker Bell- but the i can see resemblance of monroe

This is so surprising 😯

4:03 - "There's only one hundred and ninety-seven. Begin again."

the age difference between Raps and Eugene are the same as my parents.

No way Cruella would be 65, as she Anita's old school mate and Anita looks more like she is around 30 (probably in her late 20's). Wouldn't make any sense!

Only one species of crab is red and that's the Christmas Island Crab

Age gaps - I love how every one of these the narrator is shocked about it. Hate to break it to people but back in the day and as late as the early 1900s, it was normal for men in their 30s/40s to marry women that were 14 through 18 years of age. Disney was decent enough to make the age gaps only a few years vs decades different

mother gothal it was also talked about in the TV series

My son gave my daughter a eve doll from Pixar pear

Don't take The Genie's line too seriously. It doesn't mean he is really a milion years old, he says to Aladdin that he won't find a girl like Jasmine in a milion years, which is just an expression. Not sure how old he is or how he been created but at least he is over 10.000 years since he had been stuck in the lamp for so long. Conspiracy-minded people say that the movie must be set in the future because of it, but I find that preposterous. The Genie comments on Al's clothes being very year 300 (assuming AD but could be BC).

John Smith described meeting Pocahontas in the spring of 1608 when she was "a child of ten years so your wrong on her age

Beauty and the beast: because they froze in time! It states it they stopped aging…

Happy April folls day

When these films were set it was fine and expected to marry young

i already know what the triplet's ages are in encanto i looked it up on the internet that's why it's invented and i know the sisters's ages and cousins ages too especially alma

Is it just me or does anyone else think ‘Buzz Lightyear’s face resembles the original face on ‘Woody’, in key areas?

I didn’t think Gothel was 320 - 420

Sorry no way is Alice 7 in animated version think on that again look at her

And it’s also the same name as Disney Channel’s Elena of Avalor!

Eugene is not 26 he is 23 because In the series there a episode that Eugene was turning 26

acatt as Stitch my life;'s complete ;]

Regarding your reference to “Joe Ratzenberg”… His actual name is John Ratzenberger

Every Disney movie of this is haunted I know cos I have all the Haunted toys of them

Pepa Madrigal had a child at the age of 45? She was 50 and Antonio was only 5.

LOL! Was Moana’s Hair originally supposed to be blue?

Snow white changed my perspective on the movie

Okay

في فلم ١٠١ كلب مركش اتذكر ان راجي سأل زوجته انيسا اذا كانت متأكدة ان رويلا كانت زميلتها في الدراسه اذن كيف يفترض بها ان تكون بعمر ٦٥ يجب ان تكون بعمر انيسا

Belle was NOT kidnapped. She volunteered to take her fathers place. It was still an unequal dynamic, but she went into it on her own request as a brave act of love.

Wasn’t Eric 20 cause he was turning 21. Like I literally just did the musical and it was before his 21st birthday 7:32

Maleficent is orginal movie in it she's not a bad/villian will yeah she is at first tho-

I’m sorry to tell you that the yellow men are from the Child Detention Agency.

I don't think the large age gaps between the romantic couples bothers me. I know my History and for a long time young women where married off around 12-16 to men in there 30's and older. So at least most of them fell in love first and got married. Both Male and Female partners where willing to get married. Many Royals had to marry other royals or noble blood and was political.

Beauty and the beast=stockholm syndrome lol my fave Disney princesses is snow white and belle

What about Anna & Elsa

Flynn Rider is actually 21 years old not 26

Why are a lot of Disney movies based of fairytale stories

OK, Rapunzel was trap was trapped in a tower

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

When I heard that snow white was jst 14 year old I thought she maybe a 16 like most of the princesses but when i heard the Prince age is 31 I was in shock my heart jst stop for a sec 😨😨😨 I thought he maybe 18 or something I hope theses facts are not Ture are they?

John Smith is not 20! Most def 30

John Ratzenberger, not Joe.

Alice looks like 9

Some kides call there grandparents mama or papa

I mean I would think woody would be like 100 idk cuz he can’t grow he’s a toy

Maybe Mrs. Pots was albino. But I sounded silly just thinking about it. Age gap didn't change my opinion since it made sense in the time period. "Raya and the Last Dragon" is such a terrible movie. I am saying that as someone from South East Asia. That film does not represent SEAsia at all. We don't have dragons in SEAsian legends. We have sea serpents.

Alice is 11 old

We're did you find these ages I think this video is BS
