Subliminal advertising is a big conspiracy theory in today’s society. It argues whether companies purposely insert ads to influence viewers without them even knowing.

There are many more Disney movies with subliminal ads but these are just a few. In each of these movies there is at least one subliminal ad and in one or two there are two subliminal ads. In the lion king there is a supposed subliminal ad on the cover. The cover is an image of Simba’s face, it was depicted to be nice and innocent but a couple of parents saw otherwise. Parents claimed that there is an image of a naked woman wearing a thong. You honestly have to look deeply into the picture to even notice anything at all so these parents might have just been looking to get attention or money even. In the movie Aladdin there is not really a subliminal ad but a message. In a scene where Jazmin’s tiger is trying to attack Aladdin and he is supposed to be saying “Come on good kitty…take off and go” when parents have complained that it says “good teenagers take off and go”. Parents are really the only people reporting these subliminal ads, and if it is meant to be brainwashing children it is obviously not working if these children repeatedly watch these movies and have never caught these ads. Again in the lion King there is yet another subliminal ad. This subliminal ad shows and image of Simba collapsed on a hill, and yet again parents noticed that the dust that appears in the sky spells out the word “sex”. For some odd reason the children, who the images are supposed to be affecting, are not noticing these images at all. This does mean something. Another Disney movie that parents, not children, caught a subliminal ad in was “The Rescuers”. The movie was made in 1997 that is seven years after the whole subliminal ad conspiracy theory came out and I think it was just people being too paranoid and just letting their minds play tricks on them. The supposed image was in the scene where two mice were and in a town window
