* StillbornFranchise: The film was meant to kick off a highly ambitious venture for The Walt Disney Company, Disney's [=MovieToons=], a newly-created subdivision made up of the company's [[Creator/DisneyTelevisionAnimation Television Animation]] units that would focus on more comedic character-driven films as opposed to musical spectacles that the Franchise/DisneyAnimatedCanon films (which were handled by the main Feature Animation unit) were known for. Among the planned movies were feature film adaptations of other shows from WesternAnimation/TheDisneyAfternoon, which included ''WesternAnimation/ChipNDaleRescueRangers'' and ''WesternAnimation/DarkwingDuck'', as well as ones for characters from both the WesternAnimation/ClassicDisneyShorts and their comic books from the '30s and '40s, one of which being a [[DevelopmentHell long-gestating]] Mickey Mouse feature, along with several more ''[=DuckTales=]'' movies. Since ''[[AllOrNothing all of these projects]]'' [[AllOrNothing were banking on the success of this one]], all of them were abandoned when it failed, with ''WesternAnimation/AGoofyMovie'' being the only survivor and the [=MovieToons=] division being retooled as [[Creator/DisneyToonStudios Disney Video Premieres[=/=]DisneyToon Studios]], which focused on DirectToVideo sequels to the Canon films. In 2022, the idea of a ''Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers'' movie [[Film/ChipNDaleRescueRangers2022 was revisited]], albeit as [[RogerRabbitEffect a live-action movie with cartoon elements]] not unlike ''Film/WhoFramedRogerRabbit''.

Added DiffLines:

* TrendKiller: The box office failure of this film and ''WesternAnimation/TheRescuersDownUnder'', coupled with the success of both ''WesternAnimation/{{The Little Mermaid|1989}}'' and ''WesternAnimation/BeautyAndTheBeast'' is the reason why almost every animated movie throughout the 1990s was a musical (this was at a time when practically all animation was Disney, and movies by their competitors barely achieved the same level of attention).

** Home video releases for the film have been very irregular. There was a VHS release, but the DVD was only sporadically available to the general public, only being available through the Disney Movie Club or the Disney Movie Rewards program for many years (except, for some reason, in Germany), This was possibly due to the characters Dijon being an Arabic stereotype. The eventual digital releases on both Creator/DisneyPlus and Creator/PrimeVideo would cease any further inconvenience.
