11 Irresistible Movie Moments That Wore Out Your Pause Button
3. The Rescuers - Hidden Filth
It's always nice when someone discovers that someone has hidden something in a movie or a video game - and that counts for double if the unwanted Easter Egg is a little bit raunchy, which is precisely what happened to Disney in 1999. The Mouse House was forced to recall just over 3 million copies of the Rescuers VHS, after an eagle eyed viewer discovered the presence of a rogue sexy image hidden in the background of a scene. The shot of an unknown topless lady appeared at a window in the background as the Rescuers passed on Orvilles back, and was clearly taken from something a lot less Disney, and a lot more blue. The shot was never actually visible to the naked eye, appearing only in two frames that weren't possible to pick up on VHS, but that didn't stop countless inquisitive Disney fans from trying to find the offending frames when the film hit DVD. But, by then, sadly, Disney had realised and fixed their error, blaming it on a rogue animator (but not a Disney employee) who added the shot in production. The VHS eventually reissued later in 1999 with the topless stranger removed. But presumably, there have to be some of the original VHS releases still available somewhere...
