History YMMV / BedknobsAndBroomsticks

* BrokenBase: Between people who prefer the 117 minute "general release version" and the 139 minute "25th Anniversary reconstructed version". People who prefer the longer cut argue that it was closer to the version that the film makers originally intended the movie to be [[ExecutiveMeddling before they were forced to cut it down]], while people who prefer the shorter cut argue that [[ProtectionFromEditors it removes unnecessary scenes and makes the film's narrative much tighter]]. Frustratingly, while Disney currently sells both cuts on DVD, they don't sell a set that contains both of them, leaving people to choose whether to buy a DVD of the 25th Anniversary Edition[[note]]referred to on the case as the "Enchanted Musical Edition"[[/note]] by itself, or the theatrical cut in a Blu-Ray/DVD combo pack.

** It's brief, but there's something strangely sad about watching the armor deflate and become lifeless again once Miss Price's house is blown up. After all the awesomeness of watching the armor rise and march forward, England's very history coming alive to protect it in a dark time, now once again piles of metal and cloth.

Frustratingly, Disney has yet to sell both editions together-each home video release of the movie contains either the general release ''or'' the 25th Anniversary presentation.

* BrokenBase: Between people who prefer the 117 minute "general release version" and the 139 minute "30th Anniversary reconstructed version". People who prefer the longer cut argue that it was closer to the version that the film makers originally intended the movie to be [[ExecutiveMeddling before they were forced to cut it down]], while people who prefer the shorter cut argue that [[ProtectionFromEditors it removes unnecessary scenes and makes the film's narrative much tighter]].

** The Portobello road sequence drags on quite a while and seems to have no greater link to the story than to display different cultures dancing. By the end of it, you might have forgotten why the heroes even stopped in.

* {{Padding}}[=/=]ShootTheMoney: The original cut of "Portobello Road" is a serious endurance test, regardless of how talented the performers are.

* BigLippedAlligatorMoment: The Royal Cup Match on Naboombu. Seemed to only exist to give the animation department something to do and make Emelius Brown a ButtMonkey.

* CrowningMusicOfAwesome[=/=]EarWorm: "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LYBECKl0zFo Portobello Road]]" for most people, but "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0rRPU_cvGg Substitutiary Locomotion]]" and "[[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RcQ3vNOAk8k The Beautiful Briny Sea]]" have their share of fans.

* NightmareFuel: Browne sleeping on a bench waiting for his train when he wakes up to an echo-y singing, and sees a ghosty lingerie-clad Eglantine walking on the railroad tracks before she disappears.

* HeyItsThatGuy: BruceForsyth as Swinburne.

* MemeticMutation: "[[PunctuatedForEmphasis Stop. That. Ball!!!!!!!!]]"

** The simple fact that a Nazi occupation of Britain makes up much of the second half of the movie [[spoiler: Part of Eglantine's house is even destroyed by a grenade in the battle scene]] can be nightmarish, even as Disneyfied as it was depicted.

* MissedMomentOfAwesome: Miss Price's failed attempted to turn Colonel Heller into a rabbit. Seeing the pompous Nazi officer turned into a cute, cuddly bunny would've been hilariously awesome.
