Surely the most famous scene is the spaghetti scene, not the one where Lady is chained up?

What is the source for the information on the deleted scenes? Who interviewed the 'interviewee' mentioned under production? I highly doubt there's a missing "sex scene"--I think someone may have confused mentions of implied sex (Lady and the Tramp spend one night alone and Lady has puppies at the end) with long-lost Disney dog porn. If one googles "lady and the tramp" "sex scene", this is the first page that comes up, and the subsequent ones only refer to the implied mating. Also, I don't think it's possible for Disney to 'plagiarize' their own movie--plagiarism implies copyright infringement, and no matter who wrote the scenes from Lady and the Tramp and Dumbo, the copyright for both is held by Disney.

I'm surprised you didn't get a bunch of furry porn with that search oo In any event, I think that its distinction as the only Disney movie with an implied sex scene is somewhat dubious - The Lion King has the whole Nala and Simba rolling down the hill, then Simba lying on top of Nala and Nala licking him on the face.

from Lady and the Tramp DVD 50th anniversary edition - On the second DVD, The [Backstage Disney] Making of Lady and the Tramp - it is not mentioned as any missing scene, but the implied to adults watching the film what happened and how it is delt with, Trusty and Jock do propose marriage to explain to the kids without such. This is actually part of what Walt Disney and company are so good at, making films interesting to children, yet including a story that is of interest to the parents and other adults watching the film. (the DVD also stated that it was always intended that Lady and the Tramp would have puppies at the end of the film. An early version Tramp did not live in the house but was invited by then Mrs. Fred to be in a Christmas picture since he was the father.

There is a sort of multi-level to feature Disney animation where there is a story for children, and another level of implied story for adults. This is for greater interest in the movie and the movie is still interesting years later as the understanding comes. Don't know where there is a link for this.?? This could be some sort of link for animation if need be to explain many of these type of comments that come up. I have read these here and in newspapers - On this DVD the Backstage Disney the Animators talk about how they understand the movie as adults compared with how there remember as a child. Is there a common name or link for this???

Suggestions of the scene in the Lion King was a different situation as that was a continued bit from an early scene when they are very young Nala everytime could pounce on top of Simba. It is more sort of a girls can be tougher and over boys scene. The movie says that they will be maried, and such bringing you full circle of life, the kids become the next parents. Being royalty King and implied queen they are an arranged marriage situation. Kidsheaven 23:47, 9 November 2006 (UTC) additional comment kidsheaven@gmail.com 00:49, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Video release error

Earlier, like January 2006, it was put that Lady and the Tramp used the "Sorcerer Mickey" classics logo, that wasn't true, who put that there? If the person who put there knows it, he must have a PAL version of the tape.

[edit] Peg

In the text of her intro in the dog pound, and in preview for the movie in one version: it is said: "she is formerly of the dog and pony follies" - which I figure would link to dog and pony show.

I had changed this to state "dog and pony show" which is not exact - but, see the closed captioning of the movie on the 50th year DVD it is stated "dog and pony follies"

Someone changed this to "dog show" which is incorrect. The added she was left behind is likely more accurate than what I had typed in though.... Comments Welcome kidsheaven Kidsheaven 23:38, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

See the link to dog and pony show why it is most likely the suggested meaning; where Peg would have formerly been a performer "singing dog", similar to The Fox and the Hound 2 singing strays. It states:

Dog and pony show was a colloquial term used in the United States in the late 19th and early 20th centuries to refer to small traveling circuses that toured through small towns and rural areas. The name derives from the typical use of performing dogs and ponies as the main attractions of the events.

dog and pony follies = dog and pony show

[edit] A Little Edit

I took The Lion King off the list of things that have used the hyena laugh. The one in The Lion King was done by Jim Cummings and the background hyenas were voiced by some of the animators, directors and some other people.24.205.204.203

[edit] TOO MUCH Trivia ??

I went through the list and marked by double astrix-dot the possible drops in my view based on how important they seem to be in view of an average person who would look at the site, I made no change to allow other comment or other choices. I do not want to just start cutting without input of others if available, too many times things are just cut that others or myself find important, trying to go by rules of how WIKIpedia is set up kidsheaven 00:14, 26 January 2007 (UTC)

No comments yet to proposed drop, I moved one part to group it better. I made no other change yet. kidsheaven 23:16, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

I agree with dropping some of the trivia, and the fact about Scamp's comic book is either untrue or misleading. He was given a comic book titled "Scamp," but his first appearances seem to be in a book called "Walt Disney's Comics and Stories." In the late 50s and early 60s, he appeared in a few other books as well. In 1967, they reprinted the original stories in 47 issues that were released over 12 years. Seems that was Dell Publishing's (who did all the Disney comic books) MO. I see no evidence the book was published until 1988 and the way the question is worded, it implies that Greene wrote the book for 30 years.

[edit] Achewood-inspired vandalism

I removed the following passage from the trivia section:

Lady and the Tramp continuity error no. 3: When Lady goes to buy the cigarettes for Tramp, she gets him a pack of Newports. This brand was not introduced to the market until 1957, two years after the release of this film.

This is a joke from the author of Achewood (see current toddler status, 2/23.) --Mashuren 06:59, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

"Larry Roberts", who voices Tramp, is linked to Dr Lawrence G. Roberts, one of the pioneers of the Internet. I don't think this is the same person.
