Animated movies meant for children have been known to sneak in a few dirty jokes here and there. After all, the parents have to sit through the movies with the kids too.

These "Easter eggs" can be found in virtually every movie meant for kids. It may go over our heads when we watch at age 10, but years later when we re-watch to enjoy a bit of nostalgia, we realize just how raunchy the creators were.

It's not just old movies from the 90s or early 2000s, some movies as recent as Frozen 2 have some moments of adult centered levity.


Redditor Pooky135790 wanted to know:

"What are the best adult jokes that are hidden in kids movies?"

These scenes really had us rolling.

Shrek definitely has a few innuendos.

"In Shrek talking about Snow White:"

"'Although she lives with 7 other men, she's not easy.'"

"This joke is great because everyone can laugh at it."

Oh, Ratatouille.

"There is that one scene from Ratatouille, when Linguini is about to confess about how Remy is in his hat cooking for him, and says 'I... have... a little... tiny...' and right after he says tiny, Collette quickly glances down at his pants. I never even noticed it until someone pointed it out to me because it is pretty subtle and can be easy to miss."

- -noobmaster68-

"Seriously the best dick joke in a kid's movie."

- AcCuRsEdApPaRiTiOn

"That and the time when the short lil chef guy catches linguini in the pantry and says, 'One can become to familiar with vegetables, you know!'"

What a forgotten gem Monster House was.

"Monster House."

Not a movie, but still good.

Spider-Man: Homecoming just got a lot more adult.

"In Spider-Man: Homecoming."

"There's a short montage of Ned asking Peter lots of questions after finding out he's Spider-Man. He asks how far Peter can shoot his webs and adds "If I were you, I'd stand on top of a building and just shoot it as far as I could." And a girl sitting behind them in class turns around with a disgusted look on her face."

A theory emerges about Aladdin.

"The fact that there was a Brothel in Aladdin and that all the women there knew Aladdin."

The Toy Story series had a few subtle jokes in there as well.

Children's shows may be for kids entertainment, but they're created by adults. No doubt they're going to slip in a few naughty jokes here and there.

Time to re-watch some old favorites and see what we missed when we were younger.

People are required to have a license to drive, fish, and have certain jobs.

So it boggles my mind that people aren't required to have a license to have kids.

Some of the cruelest and most vicious things I've ever heard were words uttered by a parent to a child.

As an adult, I was haunted by a few thigs.

I can't imagine the scaring of an adolescent.

A tough realization that most of us have to process and accept at some point is the fact that our parents lied to us when we were kids.

But the tougher fact to process may not be the lying itself, but some of the lies that were told along the way.

With theaters finally open to those wanting the ultimate entertainment experience that streaming movies at home can't provide, the pandemic that kept many venues closed now feels like a distant memory.

There's nothing like seeing a film up on the big screen the way Hollywood studios intended, and many would argue that experience is worth shelling out the cash for.

That being said, there is no assurance audiences will remain in their seats until the credits roll at the end.

Because not all movies are created equal. Some are just embarrassingly bad and not worth sticking around for.

If there was one good thing to come out of the pandemic, it was that it made us all the more appreciative of all that is good in our lives.

No one ever appreciated the importance of friends or family more, having to be kept apart from each other for months, or the little things which bring us joy, which we made sure to keep doing even as pandemic restrictions were lifted.

Of course, being alone with our thoughts for such a long time also resulted in our reflecting on things in our lives, or in the world in general, which we were less than happy about.

Not to mention the all-important realization that life is short and precious, and we don't have time to waste our thoughts on some things.
