** There are some references to ''WesternAnimation/RobinHood'' in terms of character choices. Most prominently, Nick is a GuileHero of a criminal fox in green clothing, much like Robin Hood himself. There's also Mayor Lionheart, an anthropomophic lion sharing a name with the anthropomorphic lion version of Richard the Lionheart, but who also has wolves working for him much like ''Robin Hood'''s villain Prince John did. These aren't just convergent animal stereotypes, either: co-director Byron Howard was inspired to make ''Zootopia'' based on ''Robin Hood''.

* At the beginning of ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfTintin'', a painter paints a portrait of Tintin. The painting turns out to be his design from the comics! And if you look closely in the background, you can see that the painter has done paintings of the other characters from the comics too. What's even better is that the painter is a CreatorCameo of Hergé.
* ''Disney/{{Aladdin}}'':
** Genie asks "You've just won the heart of the princess. What are you going to do next?" In ads, celebrities would answer such questions with "I'm going to Disneyland!" As he asks, the soundtrack plays a few notes from the beginning of "When You Wish Upon a Star", the famous song from Disney's ''Pinocchio'' that was at the time used as the anthem for the Disney theme parks.
** Also, perhaps, the start of a BrickJoke: at the end of the film, after [[spoiler: Genie is released]], he is seen wearing a touristy Hawaiian shirt ''and a Goofy hat.''
* ''Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast'':
** A mounted deer's head is seen in the bar that Gaston frequents; WordOfGod is that this is Disney/{{Bambi}}'s mother.
** The song "Days in the Sun" from the [[Film/BeautyAndTheBeast2017 2017]] LiveActionAdaptation has the line "I can feel a change in me", calling back to "A Change in Me" from the ScreenToStageAdaptation.
* The Franchise/DisneyFairies ''Tinkerbell'' movie opens with a paraphrase of the origin of fairies in ''Peter and Wendy'', and the sequence of Tink being created seems to be set (between the baby's laugh, and her arrival in Pixie Hollow) in Kensington Gardens, location of J. M. Barrie's ''Literature/PeterPanInKensingtonGardens'' (which eventually became the story we're familiar with), and current site of a statue of Peter.
* In ''WesternAnimation/GIJoeTheMovie'', Golobulus, the movie's BigBad, was voiced by Creator/BurgessMeredith, who portrayed UsefulNotes/WorldWarII correspondent Ernie Pyle in 1945's ''The Story Of G.I. Joe''.
* Disney's ''Disney/{{Hercules}}'':
** It has several ''literal'' Mythology Gags referencing the 12 Labors of Hercules/Herakles -- like the lion's skin he wears when posing for a portrait, or when he breaks into Hades' private chambers while riding Cerberus. The series has even more, like when he applies for his "hero's license" and finds out he's 12 deeds short.
** Double bonus -- that lion skin is actually Scar. About whom Zazu said "He'd make a very handsome throw-rug."
* In ''Literature/TheTrueMeaningOfSmekday'', the Boov Tip befriends is named J-Lo. In ''WesternAnimation/{{Home}}'', Tip's mother is played by the real [[Music/JenniferLopez J-Lo]].
* In the Disney adaptation of ''Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame'', two of the comic relief gargoyles are named "Victor" and "Hugo", a reference to the author of [[Literature/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame the original novel]].
* ''Disney/TheLionKing'':
** It includes a SelfDeprecation towards one of Disneyland's more infamous rides:
--->'''Scar:''' Oh, Zazu, why don't you sing something with a little more bounce in it?\\
'''Zazu:''' ''[sarcastically]'' It's a small world, after all...\\

** Jeremy Irons, who voiced Scar, got a self-referential moment when, after Simba calls his uncle "weird", Scar says "You have no idea" in exactly the same intonation Irons used at the end of his Oscar-winning portrayal of Claus von Bulow in ''Reversal of Fortune''.
** In ''Disney/TheLionKingOneAndAHalf'', when Timon has to take care of Simba during the night, they are seen walking accross the same log bridge seen during the TimeSkip in the original movie. Upon the third instance of this, Timon even says, "We're going to get old walking across this thing."
* ''Disney/{{Moana}}'':
** One of the fish in the "You're Welcome" DisneyAcidSequence resembles Flounder from ''Disney/TheLittleMermaid''. Tamatoa's lair also resembles Ariel's grotto. And in TheStinger, the still overturned Tamatoa complains to the audience that they would help him if his name was Sebastian and he had a Jamaican accent. ''Moana'' was directed by Ron Clements and John Musker, the same people as ''TLM''.
** Flash the sloth from ''Disney/{{Zootopia}}'' appears in the Realm of Monsters.
** While trying to control his shapeshifting after recovering his fish hook, Maui transforms into [[Disney/{{Frozen}} Sven the reindeer]].
** A Polynesian drawing of Disney/WreckItRalph can be seen near the end of the credits.
* The feature adaptation of ''WesternAnimation/MrPeabodyAndSherman'' opens with how Mr. Peabody adopted Sherman, a direct nod to the first ''Peabody'' segment from ''The WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle Show''.
* ''WesternAnimation/ThePeanutsMovie''
** The company name on the moving van is Mendelson & Melendez, a tribute to Lee Mendelson and Bill Melendez, the producers of the classic ''Peanuts'' TV specials.
** The comic book Charlie Brown shows his admirers depicts ''[[ComicStrip/SnuffySmith Barney Google]]'' character Spark Plug the horse. who was the source of Charles Schulz's lifelong nickname "Sparky".
* ''WesternAnimation/PenguinsOfMadagascar'':
** The movie opens with a MinorKidroduction, showing the penguins as children in Antarctica and how they became lost at sea where they eventually end up in New York, much the same way ''WesternAnimation/MadagascarEscape2Africa'' depicts this happening to Alex.
** The main plot opens with a celebration of Private's 10th birthday and escalates from there; Marty's 10th birthday similarly motivates the opening act of ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}''.
** When locked in a cage, Skipper orders Rico to bust them out, which he does by coughing up a paperclip to pick the lock with. This action in [[WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}} the first movie]] is what inspired his stomach of holding abilities.
** The Penguins meet a rival group known as the North Wind, who are comprised of northern animals. The penguins don't get along with them at all, aside from one of them having a crush on the female of the group. The idea that the Antarctic Penguins would be natural rivals of Arctic life but one of the penguins having a crush on one of them also comes up in ''Merry Madagascar''.
** [[spoiler:King Julien's]] cameo in TheStinger uses an older design that would be out of date relative to the time the movie takes place, but matches how he appeared alongside the penguins in ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar'' cartoon.
* ''Disney/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'': Back in ''The Lion King'', Timon claims that stars are fireflies that got caught in that big [[BuffySpeak bluish-black thing]], and laughs at Pumbaa's suggestion that they're balls of gas burning millions of miles away. In ''The Princess and the Frog'', another Disney film released over a decade later, the firefly Ray is in love with "Evangeline", a star that he believes to be a firefly. And later in the movie, a distraught Tiana quotes Pumbaa, telling Ray that Evangeline is really a ball of gas etc. etc. And at the very end of the movie [[spoiler:Ray dies, but is seen to AscendToAHigherPlaneOfExistence.... as a star, shining right next to Evangeline.]] So... it looks like Timon was right.
* In ''WesternAnimation/SherlockGnomes'', the name on the moving van that moves the gnomes to London is Sherrinford Movers. Sherrinford Bell was Creator/ArthurConanDoyle's originally proposed name for Sherlock Holmes.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobMovieSpongeOutOfWater'':
** In ''WesternAnimation/TheSpongeBobSquarePantsMovie'', a deleted scene (storyboarded but not animated) revealed that Sandy was planned to make a cameo appearance on the surface world as a real squirrel. Come this film, and Sandy dons the appearance of a real squirrel in her superhero form.
** Burgerbeard's food cart is called the Barnacle Burger, which was an early name for the Krabby Patty.
** Squidward inking himself when he's nervous was originally going to be a regular gag on [[WesternAnimation/SpongeBobSquarePants the show]], but they could never find a way to do it properly until now.
* Disney's ''Disney/{{Tarzan}}'':
** You can clearly see a teapot and cup almost identical to Mrs. Potts and Chip from ''Beauty and the Beast'', when the monkeys are rocking out at the camp. (The only difference is a lack of eyes and mouth.)
** The set returns in ''Franchise/KingdomHearts''' Deep Jungle level. Ironically the real Mrs. Potts appeared in the second game where Deep Jungle did not appear.
** Also, later in the movie, when the gorillas hold Professor Porter upside-down, one of the many things that fall out of his pockets is a toy Little Brother from Disney's ''Disney/{{Mulan}}''.
* Another obscure Ride Cameo sneaks into ''WesternAnimation/ToyStory2'' when Tour Guide Barbie starts channeling the automated voice from the Matterhorn (quite audible from the line): "Remain seated please. Siga asentado por favor."
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Trolls}}'': At the start of the film, when the Bergens discover that all the Trolls have escaped from the tree, the wooden decoys look exactly like the classic Troll dolls. In fact, the earliest Troll dolls were made of wood.
* The Pooh doll for the live-action opening of ''Disney/WinnieThePooh'' was originally made for the first Pooh film ''Winnie the Pooh and the Honey Tree'' in 1966, but ended up being replaced by a different doll. It was finally used 45 years later.
* ''Disney/{{Zootopia}}'':
** A glimpse of some side characters gives us a weasel named Duke Weaselton, referencing back to a character mispronouncing the Duke of Weselton in ''Disney/{{Frozen}}''. (When she confronts him at his pirate DVD shop, Judy mispronounces his name as "Weselton" and he corrects her, thus echoing and inverting the joke from ''Frozen''.) They even share the same voice actor, Disney Animation regular Alan Tudyk.
** When Judy confronts Chief Bogo wanting to be a real police officer, he bluntly tells her that "Life isn't some cartoon musical where you sing a little song and your insipid dreams magically come true. So, let it go."
** At the climax, the deer mannequin [[spoiler:that "savage" Nick mangles]] is recognizably disney/{{Bambi}}.

!!Film Examples:
* At the beginning of ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventuresOfTintin'', a painter paints a portrait of Tintin. The painting turns out to be his design from the comics! And if you look closely in the background, you can see that the painter has done paintings of the other characters from the comics too. What's even better is that the painter is a CreatorCameo of Hergé.
* ''Disney/{{Aladdin}}'':
** Genie asks "You've just won the heart of the princess. What are you going to do next?" In ads, celebrities would answer such questions with "I'm going to Disneyland!" As he asks, the soundtrack plays a few notes from the beginning of "When You Wish Upon a Star", the famous song from Disney's ''Pinocchio'' that was at the time used as the anthem for the Disney theme parks.
** Also, perhaps, the start of a BrickJoke: at the end of the film, after [[spoiler: Genie is released]], he is seen wearing a touristy Hawaiian shirt ''and a Goofy hat.''
* ''Disney/BeautyAndTheBeast'':
** A mounted deer's head is seen in the bar that Gaston frequents; WordOfGod is that this is Disney/{{Bambi}}'s mother.
** The song "Days in the Sun" from the [[Film/BeautyAndTheBeast2017 2017]] LiveActionAdaptation has the line "I can feel a change in me", calling back to "A Change in Me" from the ScreenToStageAdaptation.
* The Franchise/DisneyFairies ''Tinkerbell'' movie opens with a paraphrase of the origin of fairies in ''Peter and Wendy'', and the sequence of Tink being created seems to be set (between the baby's laugh, and her arrival in Pixie Hollow) in Kensington Gardens, location of J. M. Barrie's ''Literature/PeterPanInKensingtonGardens'' (which eventually became the story we're familiar with), and current site of a statue of Peter.
* In ''WesternAnimation/GIJoeTheMovie'', Golobulus, the movie's BigBad, was voiced by Creator/BurgessMeredith, who portrayed UsefulNotes/WorldWarII correspondent Ernie Pyle in 1945's ''The Story Of G.I. Joe''.
* Disney's ''Disney/{{Hercules}}'':
** It has several ''literal'' Mythology Gags referencing the 12 Labors of Hercules/Herakles -- like the lion's skin he wears when posing for a portrait, or when he breaks into Hades' private chambers while riding Cerberus. The series has even more, like when he applies for his "hero's license" and finds out he's 12 deeds short.
** Double bonus -- that lion skin is actually Scar. About whom Zazu said "He'd make a very handsome throw-rug."
* In ''Literature/TheTrueMeaningOfSmekday'', the Boov Tip befriends is named J-Lo. In ''WesternAnimation/{{Home}}'', Tip's mother is played by the real [[Music/JenniferLopez J-Lo]].
* In the Disney adaptation of ''Disney/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame'', two of the comic relief gargoyles are named "Victor" and "Hugo", a reference to the author of [[Literature/TheHunchbackOfNotreDame the original novel]].
* ''Disney/TheLionKing'':
** It includes a SelfDeprecation towards one of Disneyland's more infamous rides:
--->'''Scar:''' Oh, Zazu, why don't you sing something with a little more bounce in it?\\
'''Zazu:''' ''[sarcastically]'' It's a small world, after all...\\
'''Scar:''' NO! No, ''anything'' but that!
