    • Trivia
      John Cleese had a choice of playing Zazu in The Lion King (1994) or Jean-Bob in this film. He chose to play Jean-Bob because he felt this character was more interesting.
    • Goofs
      During the song "No More Mr. Nice Guy", at 52:33, if you look at the top of the screen, you will see the top of the animation table accidentally revealed by the camera's movement.
    • Quotes

      Rogers: What else is there? She says, "Is beauty all that matters?" And you say, "What else is there?"

      Prince Derek: It was dumb. I know.

      Rogers: You should write a book. "How to Offend Women in Five Syllables or Less".

    • Alternate versions
      The United States full screen printings use the Nest Entertainment logo, but the worldwide printings (excluding theatrical international printings and the 1995 Mexican VHS, which use the Columbia TriStar Film Distributors International logo) and the pre-2019 North American digital printings use the New Line Cinema logo. However, the 2019 Blu-ray and 4K Ultra HD digital printings retain the Nest Entertainment logo.

    loved it
    *sigh* I was like around 2 years old when it came out and apparently it was a favorite of mine along with the Disney classics and such. And even though I'm 13 now.. i still love it. A total classic love story where the two "lovers" are separated and the Prince has to find the Princess. I love the songs 'This Is My Idea' and 'Far Longer Than Forever'. This Is My Idea is probably my favorite because it shows Odette and Derek grow up together and it's quite funny when they come to the "This is not my idea.. This isn't my idea.. of fun" since it usually concludes humorous scenes. Any young child would love it.. especially girls. The animal-trio are hilarious especially Jean-Bob and Speed.
