Line 44:
* Subverted with Louie the alligator in ''[[The Princess and the Frog]]''. All he wants to do is play jazz, but of course the humans only see a giant gator trying to get close to them (never mind that it's playing a trumpet). Played straight with the other bad alligators.
* Ben Ali Gator and his retinue in the "Dance of the Hours" segment of ''[[Fantasia]]''. Not very vicious, but a bit of a lech.
* Subversion: the original [[BigNon LippedSequitur Alligator MomentScene]] from ''[[All Dogs Go to Heaven]]''. When the gargantuan alligator is about to devour the hero, he's surprised by his voice and spares him. {{spoiler|He even gets to eat the [[Big Bad]] later.}}
* In ''[[The Swan Princess]]'', Swan Lake has many flowers, but [[Baleful Polymorph|Jean-Bob the frog]] wants to fetch the flowers in the middle of the lake, past two hungry alligators, to give to Odette. If she finds that he's risked his life to give them to her, he reasons, she'll be impressed and [[True Love's Kiss|kiss him]], and then he will [[The Frog Prince|turn into a prince]].
** The same alligators pose a real threat later, when Odette's friends must free her and Bromley from the dungeon below Swan Lake.
