Line 1: {{work}} [[File:education_for_death_7785.jpg\|~~frame~~thumb\|350px\| Heil Hitler!]] {{quote\|''What'' makes ''a Nazi? How does he'' get ''that way? Well, let's look into the process...'' }} Line 10: ---- {{tropelist}} * [[Brawn Hilda]]: The [[Sleeping Beauty]] Germany, when awakened, proves to be a fat, beer-swilling [[Valkyries\|Valkyrie]] à la Wagner's ''[[The ~~Ring of the Nibelung\|~~Ring of the Nibelung]]''. * [[Cunning Like a Fox]]: Used by the Nazi teacher to demonstrate that [[Family-Unfriendly Aesop\|the strong and cunning should naturally devour the weak and timid]]. * [[Darker and Edgier]] than the vast majority of Disney productions. Line 17: * [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]] * [[Fan Disservice]]: The scene involving the aforementioned [[Sleeping Beauty]] Germany. * [[Glowing Eyes of Doom]] / [[Sinister Silhouettes]]: The Nazi officials. * [[Laser Guided Tykebomb]]: Hans and company. * [[Marshmallow Hell]]: Hitler receives this from Princess Germany in the ''[[Sleeping Beauty]]'' section. Line 23: * [[Poirot Speak]]: Though most of the German in the short is genuine, Prince Adolf's speech to the newly wakened Princess Germany is garbled nonsense. * [[Regional Riff]]: When the chalkboard rabbit is hunted by the fox, the tune playing is ''‟Im Wald und auf der Heide‟'', an old German hunting tune. * "[[Ride of the Valkyries]]": Heralds the advent of Prince Adolf in the retold Nazi version of "[[Sleeping Beauty]]". * [[Rotoscoping]]: Presumably used to animate the human characters. * [[Shown Their Work]]: All of the methods explained in the short '''were really used'''. On another note, most of the German spoken in the short was genuine. * [[Something Completely Different]]: Compared to other Disney shorts, this one '''really''' stands out — it's probably to Disney what [[Chuck Jones]]' "[[Old Glory]]" was to ''[[Looney Tunes]]''. * [[Standard Snippet]]: Besides [[Richard Wagner]]'s "[[Ride of the Valkyries]]", reference is also made to ~~his~~the [[Lohengrin and Mendelssohn\|wedding march]] from ''Lohengrin''. When the Nazis are shown burning [[Felix Mendelssohn]]'s music, we hear a snippet of '''his''' wedding march from ''[[A Midsummer Night's Dream\|Ein Sommernachtstraum]]''. * [[Used to Be a Sweet Kid]]: Hans. * [[User Operation Prohibit Flag]]: The DVD ~~versions~~version's Maltin intro is unskippable and un-fast-forwardable. * [[Wartime Cartoon]] * [[Wicked Witch]]: How the Nazi version of ''Sleeping Beauty'' depicts Democracy.
