== [[Fridge Brilliance]] ==
* Why is the [[Blob Monster|Blot]] only staying in the Wasteland? It's due to a loophole: Thethe requirement to be in the Wasteland is to be a forgotten character, nobody else knew about [[Blob Monster|the Blot]], and [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]] forgot he even ''did'' that, so, Yen Sid couldn't remove [[Blob Monster|the Blot]], and he wasn't forgotten himself, meaning ''he can't get in his own creations'', meaning that he can't get rid of [[Blob Monster|the Blot]] because if [[Blob Monster|the Blot]] isn't remembered, then he can't be destroyed. [[Nice Job Fixing It, Villain|Mickey being brought into the Wasteland was probably a bad idea for this reason]]; it means that the Blot will be destroyed because [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]] remembers his mistake, and is going to fix it.
* [http://bulk.destructoid.com/ul/user/2/29336-159693-MickeyandOswaldjpg-620x.jpg This image], which features [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]] meeting [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit|Oswald]], was drawn by [[Walt Disney]] decades before this game was released.
** Wow... Oswald looks ''pissed''...
* A lot of people are asking why the ''[[Song of the South]]'' animals aren't going to be in the game. Then you remember Splash Mountain and the [[Film]]'s infamy and constant demand for a home release, and you see why.
* There are no Beetleworx in the World of Gremlins, the only chapter without any. This is most certainly because the Gremlins, being mechanically adept, have dismantled them all.
* Using the French version of Sleeping Beauty Castle was perfect, since Disneyland Paris is hated by the French people, so it falls under "unloved".
* While watching the opening cinematic to ''Epic Mickey'' (video released by IGN), I noticed that Mickey's calendar was changing pics, each representing a screenshot from his cartoons, all the way up to "''The Prince and the Pauper"''. The image last torn before that was from "''Mickey's Christmas Carol"'', which, if I recall correctly, was the first cartoon to have Wayne Allwine voice Mickey Mouse. The image was of Mickey holding Tiny Tim's crutch in sadness, and it made me realize: he's also mourning the loss of Wayne, who passed away in 2009!
** This one speaks for itself, in the E3 demo one of the quests given in order to get a compass from one of the pirates you have to find his treasure up in the treehouse, there's nothing up there but a teddy bear but the pirate takes it anyway explaining that he named his bear Treasure.
 
== [[Fridge Horror]] ==
* Remember the dip from ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]''? Remember that shoe melting in a big vat of it? This time you, [[The Hero]], will be wielding the dip...
** That's right, folks... honest-to-God [[Video Game Cruelty Potential]] ''in a [[Disney]] [[Video Game|game]].''.
** Oh, and there are also giant lakes of that dip. Which you can fall into. Yes, it's entirely possible for Mickey to wind up trapped in a pool of thinner, and [[Nightmare Fuel|melt as a result]].
* Also for artists, just imagine if you're [[Walt Disney]] playing this [[Video Game]]. All of the pre-development ideas or early concepts/characters you've ever happened to forget are all alive in this world, each harboring a deep resentment against you for rejecting them.
** [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit|Oswald]] becomes even more sympathetic when you realize that [[Walt Disney|Walt]] didn't ''have'' to abandon him --: if he had just sucked it up and took the budget cut, [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit|Oswald]] might have been just fine (and certainly wouldn't have fallen into the [[Dork Age]] [[Walter Lantz]] put him through in the 30's). Uncle [[Walt Disney|Walt]], we love you, man, but..... [[What the Hell, Hero?|what the Hell?!]]
* When [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]] spilled the [[Black Magic|Thinner]] jug on the map, it directly landed on what was once Alice's Curious Labyrinth... no Alice characters show up in the game. Imagine the Gyphon and Mock Turtle slowly melting away...
** The same principle applies to the [[Badass Adorable|Bunny Children]], [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit|Oswald's]] 420 adorable children... who can very easily fall into a pool of [[Black Magic|thinner]] on Mickeyjunk Mountain. (Andand then melt).)
* Oswald's 420 children. Not them directly, but it suddenly gets twisted with horror when you realize that since cats have broods of 3-5 offspring, this means that Ortensia must of had to go through the agony of birth at a bare minimum of 84 times. Then there's also the both physically and mentally exhausting task of raising all of them at once. Well she was {{spoiler|[[Taken for Granite]] at the time}}}}, but they seem to be pretty much [[Free-Range Children|free to run around and do whatever they want]], so she might not having to worry about the raising.
 
== [[Fridge Logic]] ==
* All [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit|Oswald]] wants is to be loved by audiences around the world, right? Well... [[Ensemble Darkhorse|he]] [[Crowning Moment of Heartwarming|already is]].
** Yeah, but he doesn't ''know'' that. One can only imagine that he hasn't had an x-ray in a while, so if he had a heart, he wouldn't know it.
* Yen Sid created the Wasteland, only to have [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]] accidentally destroy it. So... why couldn't Yen Sid fix it again in the ''90 YEARS'' between then and now?
Line 27 ⟶ 28:
* If [[Oswald the Lucky Rabbit]] has been relatively [[Big in Japan|popular in Japan]], then what's he doing in a world for ''completely'' forgotten characters?
** Trying to figure out how to attract the attention of the ±200 other countries.
* I really have to ask this. Why are Smee and Captain Hook in this game? They are far from forgotten! They've appeared in every ''Kingdom Hearts'' game (even in the one Peter Pan didn't), and ''Peter Pan'' is still a well loved movie, having spawned sequels and remakes of varying quality. So why on earth are they here?
** Smee is a rejected concept version of the character and Hook is an animatronic.
*** If I'm remembering correctly, he's the original Hook ''turned into'' an animatronic.
*** Possibly not;: he doesn't get turned back with the rest of the pirates and (if I remember right) doesn't have any paint-parts, suggesting he was an animatronic the whole time.
