{{examples}}
== Disney Examples, in rough chronological order ==
* The Hallucinogenic Scene in ''[[Snow White (Disney film)|Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs]]'' seems mostly [[Nightmare Fuel|fueled by fear]] (as she's running through the scary, dark woods). But it's certainly trippy. Being the first animated full length movie, it sets up a great precedent for Disney movies to contain a whole realm of further trippy scenes, even if all we're seeing is the main character's perspective when something gets overwhelming - positive or negative.
** Somewhere in the movie's early stages, Snow White was actually supposed to have a dream sequence of her future with Prince Charming. Judging by the remaining concept art, they were going to be floating in midair against a starry technicolor rainbow sky. It got scrapped, but was evetually used to end [[Sleeping Beauty (Disney film)|Sleeping Beauty]].

▲== [[Anime]] ==
* The Black Four's [[Villain Song]] from ''[[Kimba the White Lion]]'' had shades of this.
* Both of the first two ''[[Dragonball Z]]'' movies contain Disney Acid Sequences featuring Gohan. ''Dead Zone'' has "Tenkaichi Gohan" (The World's Greatest Gohan) after Gohan eats [[G-Rated Drug|an alcoholic apple]], and ''The World's Strongest'' has "Piccolo-san Daisuki" (I love Mr. Piccolo) when he falls asleep while studying. [[Big Lipped Alligator Moment|Neither really have anything to do with the movie's overall plot.]]
=== [[Film]] ===
* ''[[Hair (theatre)]]'' (the film and the musical) has a literal acid sequence in it.
* ''[[Percy Jackson and The Olympians]]'': Percy, Annabeth, and Grover experience one of these set to the song ''Poker Face'' by [[Lady Gaga]] after ingesting lotus flowers at the Lotus Casino.
Line 200 ⟶ 197:
* In [[Troll (film)|Troll]], the [[Villain Song]] performed by Torok's minions borders on this.
=== [[Live Action TV]] ===
* In the ''[[Flight of the Conchords]]''
* Many early episodes of ''[[Sesame Street]]'' have a series of sketches on numbers (1 through 10) that involved a baker who holds in his arms that number of desserts but falls down a flight of stairs, ruining the desserts in question. The sketches started with a very flashy animated intro in which the voices of kids are heard counting up from 1 to 10, then back to 1, and finally up to the featured number in the sketch, in choral voice over, while that number, in animated form, zoomed around the screen.
=== [[Music]] ===
* [[The Who]]'s [[Tommy]], pretty much the entire musical. Special mention for the song "The Acid Queen". The movie also does this, as does the stage adaptation sometimes, depending on who's directing.
* [[Autechre]]'s [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfwD05XA2YQ Gantz Graf] video. Alex Rutterford, [[Word of God|the director]], says it was actually inspired by a drug trip.
* [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QsgFBHfRNq8 THIS]
* Gouryella's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Wp7xMwfS3M Walhalla] video has a freak-out sequence after the viking bumps his head into the camera. [[Dem Bones|Dancing skeletons]] and spinning flowers against a psychedelic hypno-wheel background, etc.
* Appropriately enough, the Disneyland night show ''Fantasmic!'' includes one of these, in the form of an updated rendition of the "Pink Elephants on Parade" sequence from [[Dumbo]]. Although, the entire show could be considered an acid sequence, as it is Mickey's dreams.▼

=== [[Theatre]] ===
* Jerome Robbins' comic ballet ''The Concert'' is [[All Just a Dream]] anyway (more precisely, people daydreaming to music), but the end features all of the characters morphing into butterflies and being chased off the stage by the increasingly irritated [[Interactive Narrator|pianist]].
=== [[Video Games]] ===
* [[Demoscene]] subculture produces a lot!
* The Arceus event in ''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]]'' treats you to a rather trippy montage of the creation of the universe, set to Arceus's very bizarre and dissonant theme music. This supposedly happens all over again ''every time anything ever is born.'' [[Mind Screw|Or something.]]
Line 225 ⟶ 223:
* The boss stages in [[Luigi's Mansion]] are rather trippy.
=== [[Web Original]] ===
* This CGI animated video for ''[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=igXdVIkPYxY Pink Cadillac]'' by Jerry Lee Lewis and Bruce Springsteen.
* The final season of "[[Invention Pioneers of Note]]" is this.
