1. Controversial Trivia of Cartoon Characters
Lets talk about 80s and 90s, an era loaded with Super Mario, Yoyo, pile of Cassettes and landlines. Those of us who were kids during that period grew up with Tom & Jerry, Mickey and Friends or Donald. We know the value of the only entertainment that was available for kids back then, other than indoor or outdoor games and general activities. Most of us always came from school as a toddler and waited for Aladdin to come on his magic carpet on that black and white box. At that time, many countries telecast the famous cartoons like Mickey Mouse and Club House, HeMan and lots of hot cake cartoon programs in their Local languages. The amazing Nana Patekar behind Sher Khan for the Mowgli telecast on Doordarshan in India is still a sensation on YouTube. But, when we all grew up indulging ourselves more into this cartoon world and jumped deep inside cartoons to recall our childhood attachments in their original versions, many of us must have found something hilarious. Not everything in that universe is always as innocent as it supposed to be

He begins to do so himself until he realizes that it is the shadow of a miniature of Statue of Liberty. While being proud of his United States citizenship, he embraces the statue. The movie gets more controversial when it ends with two sets of Hailsand a tomato is thrown at a caricature of Hitlers angry face and forms the words The End.
3. Aladdin
Aladdin is a Middle Eastern folk tale from The Arabian Nights successfully adapted by Walt Disney Pictures in cartoon back in 1992. This amazing series of three movies and tv series directed by John Musker and Ron Clements showcased Scott Weinger as Aladdin and Robin Williams as The Genie. Disney successfully supported homosexuality 20 years back in a twisted way with a scene from the movie where Aladdin almost drowns after being kidnapped and dropped into the sea by Jafars goons. Genie saves his master and says out of genuine affection for Aladdin, Im getting pretty fond of you, kid,and later adds, Not that I want to pick out curtains, or anything.Later, in the movie Aladdin and the King of Thieves, Aladdin establishes himself as a fatherly character. That movie contains a hilarious reaction from Genie during Aladdin and Jasmines wedding sequence. Theres an earthquake, to which Genie reacts while muttering I thought the Earth wasnt supposed to move until the honeymoon.
4. Toy Story
The unforgettable 1995 animated adventure film, produced by Pixar and directed by John Lasseter is still a must watch for any kid. it was distributed solely by Walt Disney Pictures. Tom Hanks gave voice for Woody the plastic cowboy while Tim Allen amused us as space ranger Buzz Lightyear. But, it has also got a character for adults in a twisted way. Do you remember that toy with bare legs and a hooker replacing her upper body? Yes, you got it right; there is a hooker in childrens film for adult entertainment for those toys. As an interesting fact, we can see that while Woody is a regular toy, his mouth alternates between closed and smiling to partially open. Moreover, theres a part of the splendid Pixar sequel Toy Story 2 in which Star Command space ranger Buzz Lightyear gets the toy equivalent of an erection. During the scene where Buzz is introduced to cowgirl Jessie when shes just leaping around Andys room, Buzz stares at her while his eyes pops out due to excitement. And suddenly, his wings pop up and start flashing. There is no better way to show the plastic toys getting ?turned on than this.
5. Dexters Laboratory
This thickaccented little science prodigy is a marvelous gift for children by Genndy Tartakovsky for Cartoon Network. The same fellow that Star Wars creator George Lucas hired to direct Star Wars: Clone Wars. After it premiered on April 28, 1996 by 1999 it has telecast 52 episodes including a television movie. This concoction of tech and science for kids was not always as decent as it apparently seems. The fact is that Dexters Rude Removalis the name of the episode which Cartoon Network refused to air due to the characters swearing. Later, Cartoon Networks late night program, Adult Swim, eventually uploaded it on YouTube and got 500,000 views within 24 hours. Later, Dial M for Monkey: Barbequorepisode featured Silver Spooner, a spoof of the Silver Surfer from Marvel Universe, which was perceived by Cartoon Network as a stereotype of gay men. In Nuclear Confusionepisode, while Dexter searched for the third clue by Dee Dee and went to Neighbor Ladys house, that lady bent over to pick up a cookie she dropped onto the floor and he sees ?Dads Trophy written across her buttocks on those purple pants.
6. Powerpuff Girls
This famous cartoon series was created by animator Craig McCracken and produced by Cartoon Network Studios for Cartoon Network. Craig originally developed the show back in 1992 as a short cartoon title called Whoopass Stew!, while in his second year at California Institute of the Arts. A continuous 7year broadcasting with whopping success started from November 18, 1998, till it aired the final episode on March 25, 2005 which was nominated for six Emmy Awards, nine Annie Awards, and a Kids Choice Award. On June 16, 2014, In Comiccon Cartoon Network proudly announced plans to reboot the series in 2016. Its earlier original episodes are full with fun and laughter. But, it goes extremely funny in one of the episodes when Blossom, Bubbles, and Buttercup bring one of their friends, Robin, home and introduce her to their dad, Professor Utonium, and they say that he is the guy who accidentally made them in the laboratory. Robin, being a normally born child, replies, Its Okay, Professor, I was an accident, too,which made the professor drop his jaw.
7. Madagascar
Madagascar, a famous animated film, directed by Eric Darnell and Tom McGrath, was released in movie theaters on May 27, 2005. This is the film in which pineapples grow on trees in the jungle, whereas, in reality, pineapples grow on the ground. If you carefully watch the scene where Skipper, the talking monkey reads a newspaper, you will notice that the newspaper is the comic itself. There is no real way to do that if you want to use a certain offensive synonym of ?poop in any animated movies for children. But, to salute the amazing naughtiness of the voice of Ben Stiller, Chris Rock and David Schwimmer behind those amazing animals, scriptwriter, Mark Burton, Billy Frolick, Eric Darnell and Tom McGrath came up with a great idea. In one particular scene where Alex, the famous lion character, voiced by Ben, and Marty the zebra, voiced by Chris, are running towards each other on the beach while theme music of Chariots of Fire playing in the air, Marty somehow manages to understand the notsoloving run of Alex towards him and suddenly switches direction while yelling Sugar Honey Iced Tea. So, why was the Sugar Honey Iced Tea used there as an expressive outcome? Try to figure out the original word by reading only the first alphabets.

Aired from September 30, 1960, to April 1, 1966, the original work was first broadcast on ABC channel, America. The Flintstones rarely got more sophisticated than Stone Age chauvinism and using woodpeckers as typewriters. That is, except for the time they quietly slipped a hilarious joke into an episode right into its tightly knit screenplay. In that episode, Fred and Barney go to the store for the purpose of filling their stone wardrobes. Fred asks Barney about his preference of clothes he wants to buy. Barney replies that it will be good if he gets something that makes him look a little taller. Fred suggests, with a laugh, to buy another head for that height increment he wants. Barney promptly replies, What do I need three of them for?And it is obvious to understand about the second head, and youll also break into a laughter like the way they laughed after that.

10. The Spectacular SpiderMan

The Spectacular SpiderMan was acclaimed for its crisp dialogue and reintroduction of countless famous characters from the SpiderMan universe while still remaining loyal to the original comics. It introduced some characters that would normally be disqualified from childrens programming, such as Black Cat concealed in a skintight, revealing uniform. The thing gets a little messy for its 10 years old target audience in one episode, in which Peter Parker hits high school. We all were curious to see tissues in his room, and then something splendid happens while he is chasing Black Cat around a warehouse. While spraying his web all over, he hears Catwoman saying You better not get your goop in my hair.And he replies Dont worry; it comes off with ice or peanut butter.Lets leave the rest to the imagination.
