Mickeys Everywhere!

Hidden secrets Disney films animatedfilmreviews.filminspector.com

From "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs." Over on the right, next to Dopey's sleeve - a hidden Mickey formed by bubbles! Yes, right from the very first of the classic films, a hidden Mickey!

There are hidden secrets in Disney films. A Mickey Mouse images in virtually every Disney film. People go through them frame-by-frame to discover more. Here is a sampling of the more commonly referenced ones - but no list is truly complete. They haven't all been found yet! Plus, every new film expands the list.

So, this page contains a sampling of some of the more obvious ones, plus a few that aren't so obvious. If you don't see them at first, don't worry: once you do, you'll never be able to see the scene again without noticing them.

Oh, and just to keep things interesting, we threw in a few non-Mickey references that will give some insight into just how clever the Disney animators are!
