Line 126:
* [[Evil Tower of Ominousness]]: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_jJizAUFOqI The first level,] Dark Beauty Castle, which is distantly visible from the game's main hub, Mean Street.
* [[Exactly What It Says on the Tin]]: It's [[Mickey Mouse]] embarking on a truly epic adventure to salvage a lost world that he himself brought to ruin, all while dealing with the inhabitants, the twisted, nightmarish terrain, [[The Mad Doctor]] and his Beetleworx, [[The Woobie|his vengeful, long forgotten half-brother]] who he didn't even know about until he arrived in this world, and the ever-looming menace of [[Blob Monster|the Shadow Blot]] [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]] unleashed onto the Wasteland. Epic Mickey, ''indeed.''
* [[Executive Meddling]]: Seemingly averted. Interestingly, [[Disney]]'s support of the game style is rumored to be related to the business-savvy observation that the company's biggest profits in [[Video Game|video games]] come from ones willing to adopt a semi-dark style, as well as genuinely trying to revamp [[Mickey Mouse]] as a genuinely useful (and marketable) character.
** Granted, they've vetoed some minor elements along the way, but considering how over-protective [[Disney]]'s been regarding [[Mickey Mouse|the Mouse]] recently (remember the ''[[Runaway Brain]]'' fiasco?), this could actually be a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]] for the company.
* [[Exploding Calendar]]: Used to show [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey's]] sudden rise to fame in the intro.
* [[Fat Bastard]]: The Spladooshes. Big Bad Pete, and the other versions of Pete (except Pete Pan) could also apply.
