* AdaptationDisplacement: Averted for ''Mickey and the Beanstalk'', as the non-Disney version of the fairy tale is still pretty ubiquitous in American childhoods (not to mention being one of the few popular fairy tales Disney ''hasn't'' adapted into a feature-length film). Played straight for ''Bongo'' - it's already obscure by Disney standards, but pretty much no one knows about the original short story penned by Creator/SinclairLewis.

to:

* NightmareFuel: DonaldDuck's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqEVYbPw9lI hunger-induced nervous breakdown]] in ''Mickey and the Beanstalk''. Surrounded by death, no possible source of food beyond the bit of bread and beans, and absolutely no hope. He freaks out and tries to eat his plate and silverware. Mickey and Goofy almost have to strangle him to get him to stop. Then he sees the cow they own and goes Ax-Crazy on it in an attempt to kill it. The scariest things about these scenes weren't Donald suddenly going mad or his murderous impulses, but the realism of said portrayal. Donald's insanity is the result of desperate starvation due to an extreme famine, and it's a common fact that desperation due to near-death situations usually brings out the most violent, ugliest sides of human nature.

** The circumstances that led to Donald's breakdown, being reduced to having paper thin slices of bread with a single sliced bean, it's understandable why he just snapped.

** It can be kind of disturbing for modern audiences to watch the "Bears Like to Say it With a Slap" scene, as the idea of 'saying you love someone by hitting them' sounds eerily like a case of domestic abuse.

* {{Disneyfication}}: A mild case for ''Bongo''. The original story also features a happy ending, but is still more cynical and violent. Notably, Bongo never becomes accepted by the other bears, [[DidNotGetTheGirl his beloved rejects him for Lumpjaw]], and the happy ending comes from another circus troupe finding him and re-introducing him to civilization.
