Line 59:
** ''Anastasia'' is his only dark movie of [[The Nineties]], from what you can tell where one scene has a man turning into a skeleton after being skinned alive by Rasputin's magic.
** ''Titan A.E.'', which actually got a PG-rating, while all of the previous ones got a G.
* [[Development Hell]]: As mentioned above, the Dragon's Lair film is in this. But [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Dk42LkKXRw according to this user] who [[Word of God|spoke with Gary Goldman]]. Gary has stated that one studio was very favorable, while the other studio was looking for something [[Animation Age Ghetto|younger audience]]. The studio that was interested in distributing in the film [[Money, Dear Boy|if the film got made]].
* [[Disney Acid Sequence]]
* [[Disney Death]]
Line 75:
** ''[[Titan AE]]'' also used a significant amount of rotoscoping.
* [[Furry Fandom]]: "[[Memetic Mutation|Everyone is Furry for]] [[The Secret of NIMH|Justin]]."
* [[Good Smoking, Evil Smoking]]: If a character smokes in one of his movies, expect them to be a villain.
* [[Gray Rain of Depression]]: First appears in ''[[Banjo the Woodpile Cat]]'', and the scene of a little lost animal crying in the rain is replicated almost identically in ''[[An American Tail]]''.
* [[Happily Ever After]]
* [[Humans Are Bastards]]: The scientists at the eponymous institute in ''[[The Secret of NIMH]]''. It doesn't really crop up much elsewhere, most humans are usually just ignorant in his other movies with animal protagonists.
* [[Instant Index, Just Add Water]]: Water and related tropes are featured extremely prominently in his five first movies; in each of these there is at least one rain sequence, one under water sequence (there is even a specific under water ''musical theme'' in [[The Land Before Time]]), scenery where water is featured profusely (a watermill, a rusting cargo, sewers, docks…), several dramatic sequences and/or a climax involving water more or less directly…
* [[Lighter and Softer]]: "Rock-a-Doodle", "Thumbelina", "A Troll In Central Park", and "The Pebble and the Penguin" compared to the last 4 movies before them.
* [[Nice Mice]]: Probably the only exception in any of his movies would be Ms. Field Mouse from ''Thumbelina''. Plenty of [[You Dirty Rat|villainous rats]] in his work though.
