The Wizard Of Oz (1939)
Being a timeless classic, The Wizard of Oz is loved for a lot of reasons. Including its heartwarming message, memorable characters, imaginative world. and catchy sing-along songs. And even though it brings a lot of pause-worthy moments, there is one that stood above others. It is the scene where Dorothy and her friends are skipping cheerfully on the Yellow Brick Road. A dark figure is shown dangling from a tree in front of them. There were rumors that it was a cast member that must have committed suicide. In reality, it was just a huge bird.
The Lion King (1994)
The Lion King is an example of how rumors spread like wildfire once they hit the internet. In the animated classic, parents were outraged to spot a PG-13 word. This is the scene where Simba, Pumba, and Timon are lying on a rock, gazing up the stars. The rumors even got out of hand that even one of the movie’s animators had to step forward to discuss the scene. In reality, it wasn’t as dirty as people thought because the word spells “SFX” which is a nod to the film’s art and special effects department.
