A visit from our favorite tea set
Tarzan makes a Beaty And The Beast reference that’s hard to miss. It’s not just any old tea set that Jane brings to the jungle. Mrs. Potts, Chip, and the rest of the Potts family from Beauty And The Beast are clearly visible.
One of the few in-movie songs begins when the jungle animals come across the English explorers’ campsite with all these foreign objects. And the tea set from Beauty and the Beast is transformed into a drum set.
The most famous genie lamp
Frozen was to the 2010s what Aladdin was to the 1990s. To put it another way, it was the most popular and iconic Disney film of the decade. Anyone born in the 1980s or 1990s grew up memorizing nearly every Genie line.
So, unfortunately, this classic was more than deserving of a mention in Moana, but it was so brief that it was easy to overlook. The Genie’s Lamp is right there in the corner when they’re looking at all the gold in Tamatoa’s lair.
