From the Ice Age to the robot age
Robots is set in a futuristic world of sentient robots, and while we followed Rodney Copperbottom’s escapades, we were certainly not expecting to encounter this guest from another era.
There’s Sid, the sloth from the film Ice Age, right there. Or, at the very least, that is his robotic incarnation. We’re curious as to why he’s at the Robot City railway station. He appears to be a little disoriented, so we’re betting he’s seeking for robotic Manny and Diego.
An ‘easter egg’ for real Disney fans
Hercules contains numerous pop culture references, such as when Marilyn Monroe appears in the constellation during the musical number “Zero to Hero,” or when the animators pay homage to The Karate Kid during Phil’s song “One Last Hope.”
Another amusing moment occurs when Disney makes a self-referential allusion simply because they can. This occurs during the song “I Won’t Say (I’m in Love),” when the Muses pose similar to the singing busts in Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion.
