Cinderella (1950 film)/YMMV


 * Anvilicious: All three of the stories in Dreams Come True have a character learn to Be Herself (Himself in Jaq's case).
 * Ear Worm: Bibbidi-Bobbidi-Boo!
 * Cinderelly, Cinderelly, night and day it's Cinderelly....
 * Ensemble Darkhorse: The mice, especially Gus.
 * Fashion Victim Villains: The stepsisters.
 * Girl Show Ghetto: The Disney Princess franchise pushed several Disney movies into this, but Cinderella might have fallen the most deeply. The Platinum Edition DVD has a girlier set of games than any other movie in the collection, and the Cinderella Trilogy Blu-Ray/DVD Boxset comes packaged in a jewelry box.
 * In the UK, Cinderella DVDs actually got pulled out of the Disney Vault for a few weeks of 2011, so families anticipating the Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton could share them with their daughters.
 * Memetic Mutation: The scene in which Charming jumps off a balcony to escape his dad has become quite the favorite among gif makers.
 * Misblamed: Fans of the Grimmified version of Cinderella tend to accuse Disney of toning the story down by skipping over the gory scenes. Actually, the version Disney chose to adapt ("The Original Classic By Charles Perrault") didn't have any gore to begin with.
 * Rescued from the Scrappy Heap: One of the good things to say about the sequels is that they actually made Anastasia and Cinderella's husband Prince Charming a lot more interesting. Not to mention the King, to some degree. Especially when he tells Anastasia about his own wife, and how they loved each other even though she was an...unconventional queen.
 * Tastes Like Diabetes:
 * The montage in Cinderella II: Dreams Come True in which Cinderella defies such rules as keeping the windows shut and serving prunes for the banquet's dessert, while a teen singer sings about you should always follow your heart.
 * The first three minutes of Cinderella III: A Twist in Time, in which Cinderella recounts her rags-to-riches life to the viewers before she, Prince Charming, the mice, and the Fairy Godmother sing about how "Perfectly Perfect" things have been since the wedding.
 * Tear Jerker: Cinderella's Dark Reprise of "More Than a Dream" when she is.
 * Values Dissonance: "Leave the sewing to the women". What's weird is that it's a female mouse who says this after Jacques happily volunteers to do the sewing! And then some male mice are clearly shown sewing later on anyway, making the line even weirder.
 * Could be Jac is known to be bad at sewing but is very good at getting supplies, or the girl mouse realized later that they needed a few extra hands. Besides, some women take pride in having their territory. (No need to have a bunch of men-folk underfoot while cooking, you know. Of course, I come from a rather traditional family.)
