Line 2:
* Flynn Rider is a bandit and swashbuckler, the very same type of role that made Errol '''Flynn''' famous.
* To ''[[Independence Day]]'' of all things, which is a beautiful touch, since that's what Rapunzel got from meeting Flynn.

* The film also contains shout-outs to other Disney films. Maximus the horse seems like a [[Composite Character]] of Prince Eric's sheepdog Max from ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'' and Achilles the horse from ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]''.
** The love scene between Rapunzel and Flynn on the boat could also remind some of ''[[The Little Mermaid]]'', right down to the kiss right after the love song being interrupted by the main villain's sidekicks.
** During the escape from the guards after the Snuggly Duckling, Flynn briefly imitates Tarzan's tree-surfing while escaping on the log flume leading away from the dam.
* Mother Gothel's hood and also the shiny red apples she packs into her basket recall the witch from ''[[Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (Disney film)|Snow White]]''.
** And similar to ''Snow White'' is when after {{spoiler|Flynn cuts off Rapunzel's hair, his}} hand falls on the floor dropping the object {{spoiler|he}} was holding. The scene looks pretty similar to the scene in which we see Snow White's hand falling on the floor and dropping the apple.
* There's even a shout-out to the film's long development; the pub thug that goes and gets the guards? He's one of the earlier designs for Flynn–he even wears the same colors.
Line 20:
* When Rapunzel meets her parents for the first time, first she gets hugged by her mother. Similar thing happened in ''[[Sleeping Beauty (Disney film)|Sleeping Beauty]]''.
* [[Pinocchio (Disney film)|Pinocchio]] can be seen in "I've Got A Dream", when the camera pans around.
* Another reference: [[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney film)|An evil adoptive parent locks their charge in a tower, scaring them into submission by exaggerating the cruelty in the world]]. Watching Rapunzel's [[Calling the Old Man Out|Calling The Old Woman Out]] scene is reminiscent of Quasi's [[Calling the Old Man Out]] at the end of his movie, especially when they both recognize that the people who've told them that [[Humans Are
** What's really delicious about this is how the two songs are mirrors of each other in mood and emotional impact. "Out There" is dark, brooding, threatening, a brow-beating type song where Frollo forces Quasi to
** And Rapunzel wears a purple dress, has [[Green Eyes]], and goes barefoot. [[Hot Gypsy Woman|Look familiar?]]
* Flynn said "I don't sing." in the same tone and expression as Robert did in ''[[Enchanted]]'', and [[Hypocritical Humor|he then sings]] only emphasizing the ''[[Enchanted]]'' reference all the more.
Line 39:
* Flynn and Maximus' escape has a [[Shout-Out]] to [[Lupin III]]'s initial assault on ''[[The Castle of Cagliostro|The Castleof Cagliostro]]''.
* There are two lines in "I See The Light" that have the exact same melody and almost the same words as a line from A Whole New World: "And standing here,/ it's crystal clear/ I'm where I'm meant to be" "And now she's here/it's crystal clear/ I'm where I'm meant to go" compare with "But when I'm way up here/it's crystal clear/that now I'm in a whole new world with you." In addition, the very last note of the song is the same note from "A Whole New World".
** Not really. Also the lyric is "Standing here,/ it's oh-h so clear/ I'm where I'm meant to be" for Rapunzel. The tune remains distinct (though they are both [[Award Bait Song
* "When Will My Life Begin Reprise" ends with Rapunzel [[The Sound of Music|stretching out her arms and spinning around in a field]].
* After {{spoiler|Flynn cuts Rapunzel's hair}}, Mother Gothel exclaims, "{{spoiler|[[The Wizard of Oz (film)|Aaaah!!! Look what you've done!!!]]}}" {{spoiler|Her demise}} is also reminiscent of {{spoiler|that of the [[Wicked Witch]].}}
Line 47:
* When they first enter the city, in the background noise someone calls out "fresh cockles and mussels", and the background music turns into an Irish style melody. When combined it seems to be shouting out to the Irish folk song [[wikipedia:Molly Malone|Molly Malone]].
* When Rapunzel swings away from Maximus at the dam, she goes into [[Bullet Time]] for a moment, [[The Matrix|complete with a brass fanfare]].
* "Mother Knows Best"/"Mother Knows Best(Reprise)" hold many similarities to "Stay With Me", another song sung by the witchy mother of Rapunzel about the dangers of the world in the musical ''[[Into the Woods]]''.
* Likely unintentional, but the scene where Flynn is dying at the end and is saved by one of Rapunzel's glowing tears is very reminiscent of the scene in [[Sailor Moon]] where Tuxedo Mask is dying in Sailor Moon's arms and she sheds a tear which starts to shine and turns into the Silver Crystal. The tear even enters into him, much in the same way that a fragment of the Silver Crystal stayed in Mamoru. In fact, it was so reminiscent of the scene that I found myself thinking, "I bet she's going to cry and that will save him" right before it happened. Not to mention the similarities between Mother Gothel and Queen Nehellenia.
* The scene where Rapunzel and Flynn go into a small air pocket while inside an underwater cave resembles a particular scene from a lesser-known Disney film involving a princess.
