** Creator/JaneAusten lovers sometimes view this film as Disney's equivalent of ''Literature/SenseAndSensibility''. Both revolve around the bond between two sisters, the dutiful older one whose name starts with "El" and who hides her deep inner feeling and pain under a [[TheStoic stoic]] facade, and the naïve, emotional younger one who rashly falls in love with a man [[spoiler: who later betrays her]], and then almost dies from exposure to cold, but in the end recovers and [[spoiler: ends up with a less conventionally charming but truly better man as her SecondLove.]]

* ''WesternAnimation/{{Balto}}'', being a story is about a wolfdog hybrid in Alaska, has quite a lot in common with the works of Creator/JackLondon, such as ''Literature/TheCallOfTheWild'' and ''Literature/WhiteFang''.

* ''WesternAnimation/MonstersInc'' was called "the best movie that Creator/JimHenson never made" by Muppet performers shortly after its release. Appropriate, as director Pete Doctor is a huge Muppets fan and wanted to be a Muppeteer before becoming an animator; not only that, but Muppet veteran Creator/FrankOz has a minor role, as Randall's scare assistant Fungus.

* "WesternAnimation/SpiritStallionOfTheCimarron" could be considered an Old West version of ''Literature/BlackBeauty'', though admittedly Matt Damon's narration is nothing compared to Alan Cumming's for the 1994 film.

Added DiffLines:

* Within the ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic'' fandom, the plot of ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyANewGeneration'' has driven comparisons across the board to ''Fanfic/FalloutEquestria''. Both take place far, far after the events of the original show, when the events of it have become legends. Both feature a pony travelling out from her secluded home, joined by a gang of ponies from various tribes on a long cross-continental trek. The Pegasi in both have retreated to the clouds and formed a more technologically advanced society, while down below a red Earth Pony utilizes fear and coercion to begin gathering an army he can control Equestria with. The message of both stories is about how friendship can still win out after centuries of hatred and prejudice, and the legacy of the Mane Six that continues to inspire ponies long after their deaths.

Just For Pun is a disambiguation


** Take the zany heist scenes, the designs of the humans, and render them in 2D black-and-white, and you'd be forgiven for thinking it's for a new installment of ''Manga/LupinIII''. Officer Luggin's status as a dedicated member of the law constantly coming close to but always failing to apprehend her suave and crafty [[JustForPun lupine]] nemesis directly bring to mind Zenigata.

Removing a shoehorned example in which the user who added it cites their own video.


* ''WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyANewGeneration'': The general plotline, character archetypes, setting, and connection to the events of [[WesternAnimation/MyLittlePonyFriendshipIsMagic Friendship is Magic]]; makes the Movie feel like a more Kid-friendly version of ''Fanfic/FalloutEquestria''.

added Hotel Transylvania/Don Dracula example

Added DiffLines:

*''WesternAnimation/HotelTransylvania'' can be seen as a western adaptation of ''Manga/DonDracula'', as is deals with a [[FriendlyNeighborhoodVampire friendly Dracula]] raising a teenage daughter who develops a relationship with a human boy, to which Dracula objects. Both versions also feature TheIgor as Dracula's sidekick. It's no coincidence that Creator/GenndyTartakovsky is a big Creator/OsamuTezuka fan.

** There are a lot of similarities to ''WesternAnimation/{{Tangled}}'', from title to character design to setting. This led many to believe it was just going to be [[RecycledInSpace ''Tangled'' IN SNOW]] before the film proved them very wrong.(Literature/TheSnowQueen vs Literature/TheWonderfulWizardOfOz) starring Creator/IdinaMenzel.
