Trivia[]
- Early promotional artwork suggested that 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea would be included, as it showed Ned Land and Captain Nemo's pet seal Esmeralda, but the film is not shown in the actual video.
- Cover art also suggested that Hawaiian Holiday would be included, as it shows Goofy with his surfboard on his back, while the back of the cover mentions Modern Inventions in the list of films, but both are missing from the video itself.
