these are the jokes that might go over the kiddos heads, but parents and other adults might get what the innuendo means.

which one's your favorite? I'm between this nugget from Carousel of Progress:

JIMMY: Wowee! Look at that!

FATHER: Now James, I thought I told you to ask my permission before using my new stereoscope. That’s not a toy you know!

JIMMY: Ooh-la-la! So that’s Little Egypt doing the hoochie-koochie, eh Dad?

FATHER: Isn’t she a knockout? She’s the star of the new World’s Fair in St. Louis, and—(clears throat) now you put that away before your mother finds it.

JIMMY: Aw, Dad…

FATHER: You heard me!

or from Country Bear Jamboree:

Melvin: Hey! He's a regular Liberace.

Buck: And he plays good, too.

what other ones have all'y'all found around the parks?
 
:rolleyes1 OooooK, so we've got a Dad sharing porn with his son and hiding it from the wife/mother as a "heart-warming" throwback to yesteryear and a hillybilly (bear) taking a shot at gays as a representation of country folk? I can't say I've picked up on either of these examples at the Disney attractions but they're both pretty cringe-worthy. :sad2:

Sorry - forgot the rule.
 
I wouldn't say he was sharing it. the kid stumbled upon his risque stereoscope. :P and the Liberace line is pretty subtle.

A bunch of the lines in Aladdin. I mean - even now would young adults even get the references to William F. Buckley?
 
Not that subtle if both you and I got it. ;) And either way, it's mean-spirited at it's root.
I believe you are reading too much into the Liberace joke. Such lines are often used to make fun of a "country bumpkin" for being culturally illiterate. Show like The Beverly Hillbillies were built on this sort of humor.
Consider this alternative example:
Melvin: He's a regular Emeril!
Buck: ...and he's a good cook too!

OK, but it's not 1969 anymore. Even "bumpkins" aren't that obtuse and such a double-entendre today is in very bad taste.

If you're going to get that PC, OK, certainly your right to do so. But I definitely don't share that sentiment. There are so many subtle jokes in so many different cartoons/movies. Do you cringe at each and every one?

I find the line in CoP funny (not a knee slapper, but cute), but maybe that's just me.

That is how I always took the joke. I never took it as a double entendre to be a shot at gays.
I always took the first part as a compliment to the bear's style and playing (Liberace played and had style) and the second part as Buck being so dumb he didn't know who Liberace was.

But at least two other people in this thread noticed that it was an "adult" joke, so maybe my mind doesn't go there. (And maybe there is a longer history of people using Liberace as an insult that I don't have experience with. If that is the case, it should be easy for Disney to change that line.)

I get what you are saying on the CoP line because that would have been considered risque back then, but Beach Blanket Bingo or any of the other 60s beach movies probably had more scantily clad girls dancing than the "porn" on the stereoscope.
 
There's the boob joke in Mulan: Mulan is bathing and the other soldiers start heading for the lake. Muushu says "There's a couple of things they're bound to notice!"
