Disney Movies Recycled Scenes
They might be considered classics but a web-savvy film buff has found another reason why hit Disney films look so familiar – recycled scenes. The Swedish teenager, known only as Wetrox, has become a YouTube hit after he spliced together scenes from Disney classics, including “Robin Hood” and “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs,” to show that the movie giant often used the same scenes in different films. (Video here.) The technique, known as “video referencing,” saves the studio money as a character’s animation can be traced from another film, skipping the phase of painstakingly copying human movement.
Marked similarities can be found between “Winnie The Pooh” and “The Jungle Book” and “Robin Hood” and “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.”
