Every WARNER ANIMATION Movie Joke Kids Missed: Cleanest to Dirtiest

Warner Animation is a bit… All over the  place when it comes to their movies. There’s the dystopian themes of The  Lego Movie. All the innuendos crammed into Scooby Doo. Space Jam psyoping an entire  generation into being attracted to Lola Bunny… There are lots of jokes that flew right  over your head as a kid. I’m Kifinosi with WickedBinge. And these are Warner Animated  Movies Adult Jokes: Cleanest to Dirtiest. Let’s start this off at the  beginning. With perhaps the studio’s most iconic movie

…  for better or worse: SPACE JAM. From Commercial Beginnings Did you know that Space Jam was actually not the first time Bugs Bunny and  Michael Jordan collaborated? That’s right–a legitimate Nike commercial in the ‘90s  featured the two going up against some basketball bullies–and absolutely  CRUSHING them. Who knew Bugs would actually be right about this being  the start of a beautiful friendship? Self-promotion…sort of There are several nods throughout to the movie’s producer, Ivan  Reitman,

and are as blatant as Bugs saying his connection to Bill Murray is the reason  the latter got cast for the film. Honestly, the only thing dirty about this  is that shameless self-promotion. 2001: a Space Jam Odyssey In this shot of Danny Devito’s evil planet, Moron Mountain, there’s a brief reference to the  monolith from the 1968 film 2001: a Space Odyssey. Jerry Krause, Certified Supervillain Recently, the docuseries “The Last Dance” has raised speculation amongst NBA and  Space Jam fans alik

e that Swackhammer–Danny Devito’s villainous role in this movie–  was based on the Chicago Bulls’ coach, Jerry Krause–whom Jordan was known to butt  heads with often. Even if this is true, hey, at least you got to be played by  Danny Devito! I’m jealous, personally. Union Rights The movie has a surprising amount of references to workers’  rights, from Daffy calling a union meeting to him and Bugs lamenting that Jordan makes  no money off of the sale of his merchandise. White guys can’t dunk When

Michael Jordan tells Bill Murray that he probably can’t play in the NBA,  the latter’s immediate reaction is to ask if it’s because he’s white– Well, maybe the next  Space Jam will take place on a hockey rink. But first, a word from our sponsor(s) Wait, no, don’t click off–it’s just a joke from the movie. In one scene, Michael  Jordan is picked up by Stan Podolak–who, in just one sentence, ties all of  Jordan’s sponsors into the movie. Sponsors aside…is it really a good idea to  have a Big Mac

before athletic activity? Secret Steroids When it’s time for Bugs Bunny to get his teammates pumped up, he uses a  little placebo effect to convince them that their water is full of steroids, calling it “Michael’s  Secret Stuff.” Even Daffy is hesitant to pull out his inner Lance Armstrong, saying it goes  against everything they learned in health class. A Dig at the Ducks In one scene, Daffy questions what kind  of Mickey Mouse organization would call themselves the Ducks…just a couple years af

ter  Disney released The Mighty Ducks. It’s a bit odd that Daffy Duck considers the Ducks to be an  unflattering name, though. Why the self hatred? Smoking a Trombone One of the Toon Squad’s basketball rivals is seen smoking out  of a trombone. Wait, why did they feel the need to make it a trombone? Kids know what  cigarettes are…unless that’s NOT tobacco in there? Bugs Roasting the Audience In one scene, Bugs breaks the fourth wall by telling Michael Jordan  about Swackhammer’s plan to kidnap t

he Looney Tunes–horrified at the concept of  performing for a buncha–his words–”lowbrow, bug-eyed, fat-headed, humor-challenged  aliens.” Wait…if we’re humor-challenged, and we’re laughing at you, then what  does that say about YOU, Bugs? Hmmm? “We’ve got ballth!” ….I know you get this one. Moving on. Charles Barkley’s prayer Back in the ‘90s, rumors spread about Charles Barkley having an affair with  Madonna–despite being a married man. Thankfully, he was able to poke some fun at the gossip;  i

n one scene he prays for success in a church, and promises in return that  he’ll never date Madonna again. A Pulp Fiction Reference? Of all the movies to reference in a crossover between Bugs Bunny and the  NBA, R-rated Pulp Fiction wasn’t at the top of anyone’s list of expectations. But in any  case, when Yosemite Sam and Elmer Fudd show up in black suits to take care of one of the monsters,  we find out they take the game VERY seriously. Wrong kind of Branding… Daffy apparently has been litera

lly branded by Warner Bros. Entertainment. If that weren’t  odd enough, the branding in question is…on his butt. This raises MANY questions, but perhaps  most notably: how does he use the bathroom? Something Weird In one scene, Danny Devito–I mean, Swackhammer’s minions  are stacked atop each other in a trench coat. Due to their squirming, a woman comments that  the guy next to her is doing something weird in his trench coat. Keep it in your pants,  guys–all…however many of you are in there. Pat

rick Ewing’s Skills This famous basketball star ends up visiting a doctor for consultation after  losing his basketball skills. Promptly, the doctor covers his bases by asking if there are any other  areas he’s unable to perform–to which Patrick quickly and defensively responds with a negative.  Hey, at least he didn’t ask for an examination… Lola bunny. Just…Lola Bunny. It’s telling that in a movie about Michael Jordan playing basketball with  an animated rabbit, the most memorable aspect is st

ill this weirdly sexualized rabbit woman. If  you’re doubtful of this being intentional, let me call your attention to Bugs getting a full-body  erection upon seeing her. Down hare-endous. One could argue the amount of  inappropriate X-rated fan art this one character is responsible for should  be classified as an Act of Terrorism. Now, everybody get ready to take a trip  through the human body–next is OSMOSIS JONES. The New York Buffalo Wing Festival: Origins Ironically, despite the movie being

about treating your body better–at least to some  extent–one New York entrepreneur saw it and was more impacted by a throwaway line from  Frank about a chicken wing festival. Thus, the New York Buffalo Wing Festival was  born–and it’s still going strong today. Completely unexplained Pikachu cameo Yeah, the entry name says it all–one of the many germs inside Frank’s  body is seen holding a Pikachu plush. Either Frank must’ve eaten too  many Pikachu fruit snacks or something, OR Pokemon is hugely

popular with  single-cellular organisms. Very random. DNABoy Magazine In one blink-and-you-miss-it shot, there’s a character reading a magazine that  looks similar to the infamous Playboy–except it has strands of DNA instead of naked  ladies. We’re not sure about the ethics of that in this universe, but we’re sure that  it’s best not to think too hard about them. Godfather Parody Whether you care for the Godfather or not, Osmosis Jones has a parody of it featuring  the villain, Thrax…in Frank’s

armpit. There’s not gonna be a time to say this that’s better  than any other, but MAN, this movie is weird. Thrax is unironically Terrifying Named after a rare-but-deadly disease  called Anthrax, Thrax is probably one of the most morbid villains to ever  appear in a kids’ film. Being a virus, his only goal is to destroy his hosts’ bodies  from the inside–and once he does, he keeps a single chromosome of his departed victims. That’s  a horror villain motivation right there, man… Literal foundin

g father In this scene, a statue reading “our founder” can be seen–the statue in  question being of a sperm cell. It’s a pretty bold joke that doubles as something technically  educational. We applaud you, random statue. Gonad’s Gym label On Drix’s gym bag, we see a label that says “Gonad’s  Gym.” Gonads, if you don’t know, are the primary reproductive organs in the human  body. While the label is seen in the movie, the gym scene itself was cut for  the sake of keeping things family friendly. Th

ere’s a couple other things that  should’ve been cut by that logic, but…sure. Tom Colonic’s Campaign Ad Tom spins a boy’s head around 180 degrees in one of his ads. This might seem  like just a fun reference to the Exorcist, but later on, we see the same boy in a  neck brace…meaning this JFK clone just casually snapped a child’s neck to build his  campaign. Gotta love some subtle dark humor. Nightmare Theater Frank’s subconscious is portrayed as a movie theater with  a variety of nightmares to p

lay for him. The most notorious is called “Your Worst  Nightmare,” which portrays his young daughter Shane in a wedding dress next to his slob of  a coworker, Bob. We’ll give that movie some points for honesty–it’s DEFINITELY going  to live up to its name… Not Bob! Gross. Uvula joke The words “uvula” and “vulva” are  easy to mix up–but the description of “dangly thing” makes Ozzy mistake it  for another dangly thing on Frank’s body… “The chicks line up to divide with me!” Osmosis Jones bragging

about how every girl wants to “divide” with him is the  equivalent of a guy bragging about how much he gets laid–and likewise, a girl telling  him he seems like the type who divides with HIMSELF is clearly referring to masturbation.  Brutal…scientifically accurate, but brutal. You say WHAT’S mandatory?! When Ozzy and Drix show up to the Zit, a performance from Kidney Rock–a pun  on Kid Rock–is performing “Cool, Daddy, Cool.” One of the lyrics in the song,  although not blatant in the movie itsel

f, is literally “young ladies, young ladies, I like  ‘em underage, see. You say that’s statutory, but I say it’s MANDATORY!” I feel uneasy even  reading that. Be on the lookout for Osmosis Jones 2, where Kidney Rock collabs with  Herbert the Pervert…hopefully from prison. Next, let’s walk a little closer to  the live-action end of the spectrum to talk about the cinematic  masterpiece: SCOOBY-DOO (2002). Would you do it for a Doobie Snack? In one scene, Shaggy and Scooby are having a realllllll c

hill time in the Mystery  Machine–smoke coming out and all. If it’s not a clear enough stoner reference, they start playing  “Pass the Dutchie” during the scene. You know, the one that was in Stranger Things? Yeah,  that one. “Talk about toasted” indeed, Shaggy. Shaggy’s relationship to “Mary Jane” The Shaggy stoner references continue with his interest in a girl named Mary Jane–a street name  for marijuana–who he says has his “favorite name.” Beans…? Staying on the theme of mysteries, one of th

e most compelling in this movie is Fred suggesting  that there was a time when Scooby “cleaned his beans” at a Christmas party. Yeah…there are really  only so many things that could be referring to. Where Shaggy and Scooby DON’T go There are five words to deter Shaggy and Scooby from visiting: haunted, spooky,  creepy, forbidden, or…hydrocolonic. Not familiar with one of those words? Well, “spooky”  basically means a little bit scary and–oh, you meant hydrocolonic. It’s, um…basically a  term for

shooting water into your rectum for cleansing. The only question now is why Scooby and  Shaggy seem to have shared trauma involving this… Mr. Mononucleosis In one scene, Fred butchers Mr. Mondavarious’s name as “Mr.  Mononucleosis”---AKA Mono, the “kissing disease.” Fred’s a bit too excited… Fred ends up getting VERY excited when he  swaps bodies with Daphne, and realizes he can look at himself naked. It’s surprisingly  blatant–he even starts feeling her–I mean, his chest later on. Looks like h

e’s found a new  kind of mystery to solve: his own sexuality. Poor Daphne… If being groped by Fred while he was in her body wasn’t  enough, Daphne later gets felt up by a ghost for supposedly an hour and a half. Someone  give her a hug...a CONSENSUAL one, thank you. Eyes up here, seat neighbor Can this movie’s cast go five seconds  without ogling Daphne?! On the plane, the guy sitting next to her is looking  at her magazine rack…emphasis on rack. What a gentleman When Velma accuses Fred of only

caring about women for their bodies,  Fred defends himself by telling her that dorky chicks like her turn him on too.  And yes, he does word it like that. Coming soon to a bookstore near you… Don’t miss Fred’s generation-defining  work of art “Fred on Fred.” And no, it’s not a weirdly premised adult video…at  least, I definitely hope it isn’t. I don’t have the WHAT? Let’s take a moment to reminisce on the fact that this movie has Scrappy Doo say the  phrase “you don’t have the scrote for this jo

b, pallie!” Scrote being short for scrotum…which  is the scientific term for… You get it. Scrappy-Doo’s villain arc Towards the end of the film when  Scrappy Doo is taken off to jail, his last words to the gang are cut short  before he can call them “sons of b-words”. Language, Fred In one scene, Fred pulls a Jesse Pinkman and says “biyatch”.  How this movie kept a PG rating is beyond me… The team is like a banana split Shaggy offers some kind encouragement by  comparing the Mystery Gang to a ba

nana split–and clarifies that Fred is the big  banana. He seems VERY sure of it, too… Shaggy’s French Lesson While bonding with Mary Jane–the girl, not the herb–Shaggy reveals that Fred once  tried to get him to learn French. The one phrase he recites–”Voulez-vous coucher avec  moi”--means “Do you want to sleep with me?” Scrappy’s “puppy power” Before being reasonably kicked out of the group, Scrappy threatens to give  the ghosts a taste of his puppy power…right before he pees on Daphne. When ca

lled out, he  seems disturbingly proud of what he’s done… Deleted scenes Yeah, that’s right–with all the adult  content they crammed into the movie, there was still some that got left  out. Including but not limited to: -an implied drug deal between a  park-goer and the Voodoo maestro -a line from daphne implying that she “faked”  having a good time during sex with Fred -there was apparently a kissing  scene between Daphne and Velma? Or at the very least some  implied attraction there… And, of c

ourse: Velma’s several cut scenes The fact that parent screenings got several  scenes involving Velma cut–from her singing on a piano as though she were intoxicated(though  she was not) to her dancing in a bikini in a locker room while possessed by a demon.  Though, it must’ve been an ego boost for Linda Cardellini to know she was so hot she  almost single-handedly raised the age rating. They say The Godfather: part 2 was  the greatest sequel. But we say: SCOOBY-DOO 2: MONSTERS UNLEASHED Daphne

Tattoos Two guys ended up getting Daphne tattoos on their chests to show  their love for her. And you know what? Weird though it may be, this is still probably  the most respectful way any male admirer has treated her in these movies so far. Good for  you, guys. Terrible life decision, but good job. Right on, Shaggy bro! In the same scene, Shaggy smells his beloved mary jane(it actually IS the herb  this time) and approaches a group of stoners to greet them. Always good to have a solid bond with

  your fans, right? Even if it’s over light drugs. That’s my purse, I don’t know you! When Velma kicks a metal suit of armor in the  groin, we learn a new thing about its slang: apparently “roundtables” is  their word for testicles. “Who’s your mommy?” Apparently the studio took the last movie’s parental notes of  “Velma is too hot”, threw them in the trash, and made a whole subplot out of her giving  herself a glow-up and calling herself “mommy.” Can’t believe Scooby-Doo 2 was so many people’s

sexual awakening… That just doesn’t feel  like a sentence we should be able to say. Shaggy’s Reflection And finally, In one scene, Shaggy defies all logic by becoming even more  gorgeous. Just look at that hourglass figure… It would be so awesome, it would be so  cool… If we moved on to the next entry, TEEN TITANS GO! TO THE MOVIES Slade, not Deadpool The Titans end up mistaking Slade for Deadpool in one scene…much like many  of the very young audience members probably did. “Where to Babies come

from?” Before the end of the movie, Robin directly tells the audience–of mostly children and  their parents–to ask their parents where babies come from. Honestly, the absolute savagery  this show could go to is kind of admirable. Titans, GO away from the crime scene! After being encouraged by an upbeat inspirational song about life, the Titans  end up hitting him with a truck and promptly freeing the crime scene out of fear that  his dad is a cop…that’s not very heroic. Resetting the Timelines

The Titans end up having to reset the timeline for multiple superhero origin  stories, including Batman–whose parents he shoves into an alley so that Bruce Wayne can witness them  be brutally murdered firsthand. You know what, I’m gonna say it…this show was funny.  Not saying it’s good–but it IS funny. But there’s no time for wondering  about that now. Let’s move on to the next piece of the set, THE LEGO MOVIE. A surprisingly dark ride… The LEGO movie is one of the most acclaimed kids’ movies in

recent years, in no small part  due to the fact that even adults can enjoy the themes of brainwashing, parental neglect, and  a 1984-esque totalitarian dystopia. If Orwell just designed lego sets instead of writing  books, we all would’ve figured it out sooner… Honey, where are…everyone’s pants? For a kids’ film, there’s a lot of Lego nudity to be seen here. We see half  of Emmett’s nude body in the shower, and everyone’s favorite show is a sitcom  called “Honey, where are my Paaaaaaaants?” Use

this clips:  https://youtu.be/pkwvHIx9HYY?si=_1x9qGF-JFRIKA8M Total jab at sitcoms Speaking of which, that very show might be a reference to sitcoms  that have gone on too long in general. Wyldstyle remarks that after so many seasons, you’d think  he would’ve FOUND his pants by now. It raises questions about why other series needed to last  so long. Why did it take so long to learn how he met his mother? How full will the house get?  Is Malcolm ever going to get OUT of the middle? These be the

laws of the sea… Of all MetalBeard’s weirdly specific Pirate rules, the “number one rule” is to never put your  butt on another pirate’s face. Apparently, this was enough of an ongoing issue to make not  just a posted rule, but the most important one. Just convulsing around In one scene, Good Cop/Bad Cop claims he has video evidence of Emmett  “convulsing” with what he believes to be a strange lego piece. The fact that it’s  shaped like that, is attached to his butt, and his absolute horror upon

witnessing said  video is, of course, ENTIRELY coincidental. From one Lego film to another,  next up is the LEGO BATMAN MOVIE. Raging at 1 million percent Saying that your rage is always operating at one million percent already sounds  edgy and weird enough as it is. Add to it the fact that you’re wearing a bathrobe and thrusting your  hips as you say it, and…well, now it’s just weird. Go home, Alfred, you’re drunk When Alfred tries in vain to give Batman some solid emotional life  advice, Batm

an scolds him for watching too many Lifetime movies and drinking too  much Chardonnay. Alfred’s only grievance with this is that he’s been drinking  white wine, not Chardonnay–meaning Alfred canonically enjoys both alcohol and  Lifetime movies. Hey, to each their own. What do you mean it’s a bad idea?! Batman ends up roasting the Suicide Squad by commenting on how dumb the notion  of gathering criminals to fight criminals is. But…but the buff shark guy! The rat girl! Margot  Robbie! Come on, man

, have an eye for the arts! Batman? More like PIG-man! In one scene, Batman tells the Joker that he likes to “fight around”--and given Joker’s heartbroken  reaction, it’s likely a play on the term “sleep around”, a term usually referring to sleeping  with multiple partners. Batman, your heart is just as black as your cape…mass murder and torture  is one thing(well, two), but CHEATING?! For SHAME. Kids can be cruel, Robin When Richard Grayson introduces himself to Bruce Wayne, he tells him  how t

he other kids at the orphanage call him “Dick” for short…Bruce offers  his understanding of how cruel children can be sometimes, clearly thinking  the nickname had a double meaning. To the Wayne Car! Batman’s license plate reads “Wayne Car.” Obviously a nod to his name, Bruce  Wayne, but it also sounds similar to the word “wanker”--meaning Batman is basically calling  himself a British guy who masturbates a lot. And surely you didn’t think  we were done with LEGO, right? Now we’re gonna take a q

uick  trip to the LEGO NINJAGO MOVIE. Lord Garmadon’s Dupli-Arm Trick Lord Garmadon shows the Ninjas his favorite trick with having extra arms–with 4 arms  rubbing his back, he can look like he’s making out with two people at the same time. Weird–I  didn’t know he had a mouth on his crotch…oh. Oh. Okay, we swear this is the last Lego movie we’re  talking about: THE LEGO MOVIE 2: THE SECOND PART. Pop-culture References While the sequel doesn’t have as much adult-oriented humor as the  original, t

here are some cheeky easter eggs that fans of all ages should be able to get a  chuckle out of. Emmet buckles up his friend, Planty–a reference to Starlord telling Groot to  buckle up in the at-the-time new hit Guardians of the Galaxy. There’s also the amount  of Mad Max references like Wyldstyle’s yellow-and-black hands, a bunch of raptors  in the background shots doing random things, and even a cameo of Lex Luthor coming to  you live with Kidney Rock from prison. Let’s pay one last visit to  t

he Mystery Gang for SCOOB! Dropping F-Bombs Shaggy and the Blue Falcon are in a bind, so naturally  Shaggy suggests the latter drop some of his patented Falcon Bombs…F-bombs  for short. Not sure if you’d be able to keep the PG rating with weaponry like  that, Shaggy. I’m telling Mommy Velma. Now we’re heading back to where it  all started with one of the world’s longest-awaited sequels–SPACE JAM 2: A NEW LEGACY. Even More Easter Eggs In the background shots of this film, there are some character

s that kids should recognize. Icons  like the Flintstones, Yogi Bear, the Jetsons, and even the Joker should be easy for anyone  to point out. Others are a bit more obscure, though–like the Great Gazoo, the Herculoids, Space  Ghost, and Peter Potamus. There’s actually a crazy amount of retro cartoon cameos in the background  shots of this movie–it’s worth checking out. Bugs Bunny for the Game Boy In one flashback, we see Lebron playing a video game before his basketball career would eventually 

kick off. That game? Bugs Bunny for the Game Boy. Wonder if that one’s any good? Any AVGN-esque  YouTubers who can answer that one for us? Well, in any case, it’s finally time for the  last movie on our list: DC: LEAGUE OF SUPERPETS. Comic-geek heaven Despite the kiddie vibes of the movie, comic book fans are  going to enjoy all of the nods to more undersung DC properties. For example, Jonah  Hex apparently owns a Texas SteakHouse–we’d definitely love to visit, on a side note.  Hawkman has his o

wn brand of popcorn, Superman is shown to have Black Canary’s album,  and there’s apparently a raccoon version of Green Lantern. Which begs the question…are there  animal versions of other fictitious heroes? Is there a Spider-Man somewhere who’s just  a regular spider? The world may never know…
