Where Can I Watch TV Shows Online?

This post will tackle the issue of subliminal movies – i,e. The phenomenon of movies using subliminal messages – why they do it, and what benefit it serves, and we will also talk aboutsome common examples.

The most famous example, or I should say examples are from Disney – they are infamous for putting subliminal messages in their movies. If you want to see them all then view our disney subliminal messages article, but some famous examples are from:

The Lion King: Where the stars align to form the word “Sex” in the sky when Simba is waiting to see his father in the sky.

Aladdin: There is an audio hidden message saying “teenagers, take off your clothes” in the scene where Aladdin is on the balcony of Jasmin’s window.

The Rescuers: In the background a nude woman can be seen in one of the windows of a house for just a split second.

Roger Rabbit: Jessica rabbit legs at one point turn into the legs of a real woman’s open (naked) legs.

There are also messages as reported in Toy Story, Pocahontas and many other Disney films.

It’s debatable why movies would want to use subliminal messages.. Advertisers clearly use them with really great results. For example, to boost sales or make the ad more memorable. But with a movie there is not this sales driven incentive. Arguably they use them for the same reasons – to make you remember the movie better. This is a hotly denied point by the film studios.

Another famous example is from “Fight Club”. The character Tyler Durden inserted subliminal pictures one frame in length into childrens movies in the cinema where he worked. Inserting an pornographic image for a split second. This movie started a craze for looking for subliminal messages. This isn’t the one and only subliminal message in fightclub however. There are flashed images of Tyler Durden right the way through the movie. If you look closely there are scenes where Tyler Durden is in the background – making a reference to the fact that his character is not important. This is more an artistic use of subliminal messaging, but messages can be found in many movies – here is a brief list:

Pokemon – saying “Go f*** yourself” while the animals are running through the street.

Licence to Wed – On the movie poster the word Sex is embedded into the sheet covers.

Spongebob – Hidden messages in the animation showing the 666 symbol.

High School Musical – Contains various messages when the songs are played in reverse.
