* BannedInChina: While it was never officially banned, the film used to be broadcast in Israel every summer on the Educational Channel (a government-funded PBS equivalent) until one lady called to complain - while it was on the air - that one of the characters, the good wizard Carolinus, is an "[[GreedyJew antisemitic stereotype]]", due to his [[SizableSemiticNose large nose]] and the stars (resembling Stars of David) on his robe. Never mind that he was the ''good guy'' (if not BigGood), or that his robe also featured moons which are, if anything, a ''Muslim'' symbol. The broadcast was cut short and the film was never shown on Israeli TV again.
