Treasure Planet/Trivia

""Dang it, Jim. I'm an astronomer, not a doctor! I mean, I am a doctor, but I'm Not That Kind of Doctor.""
 * Actor Allusion: Scroop who was voice acted by Michael Wincott, who also played Rochefort in Disney's The Three Musketeers 1993 had the same line (word) delivered exactly the same way after the same question; "Transparently."
 * Joseph Gordon-Levitt playing a teenager from outer space.
 * It wouldn't be the last time he would float around in zero gravity.
 * Hey It's That Voice: Does the narrator sound familiar? As well, Doctor Doppler is Niles and Drix.
 * The Captain is Professor Trelawney and Nanny McPhee.
 * Jim is Tom Hansen, Cobra Commander and Arthur.
 * Mr. Arrow is, among lots of other things, The Kingpin.
 * The Narrator at the start of the film is Judge Claude Frollo from the Hunchback of Notre Dame and Shere Khan in the sequel to the Jungle Book.
 * Shout Out: To (would you believe?) The Catcher in The Rye in a deleted scene, N. C. Wyeth, and of course Star Trek.


 * They were also going to have Doppler say "He's dead, Jim" when the tortoise-like pirate (named "Bones") dies, but thought better of it.
 * Onus (the six-eyed lookout), as the pirates find the treasure, does a Jaws reference: "We are going to need a bigger boat!"
 * was possibly a nod to Lady and the Tramp. That, or just brazen unoriginality.
 * After Silver's artificial leg is damaged in the course of the film, the ever-versatile cyborg extends a crutch from his also artificial arm and starts hobbling around just like Robert Newton from Disney's own 1950's version of Treasure Island. This also gives him a Primal Stance, making him more inhuman-looking.
 * The alien eggs Silver prepares in his opening scene are scaled-down versions of the alien eggs.
 * Morph could be a reference to Aardman Animation's shapeshifting pink-skinned character he shares the name with.
 * Or Ditto.
 * Does naming Jim's home planet Montressor count? Poe's use of Montressor is a pun on mon trésor ("my treasure"), and montre (to show) and sort (fate), both of which factor into the story.
 * Hello?! BEN whistling "A Pirate's Life for Me" as he goes off to shut down the ship's cannons?
 * The ship's name is the R.L.S. Legacy; the initials stand for Robert Louis Stevenson, the original author of Treasure Island.
 * What Could Have Been: Alan Silvestri was attached to score the film but pulled out to do Lilo and Stitch instead.
