Frozen: that celebration of throwing off the oppressive psychological shackles of your dead parents to blossom into yourself as an ice witch and accidentally create sentient life.

As the first animated Disney musical in 15 years, it was a welcomed breath of insanely catchy fresh air, so it’s no surprise that people are obsessing over the movie. I’ve seen lists of hidden easter eggs, accidental Arrested Development references, and inside jokes, but somehow everyone seems to have missed the biggest one of all. One entire song sequence is a giant homage to Disney.

I’m talking about “Love is an Open Door” the song where the childish Anna and the not-yet-revealed-as-villainous Hans profess their love for each other despite having met only hours before. Somehow, everyone just missed the fact that virtually every shot in this song is a reference to a famous sequence from a prior Disney film. This song is basically a visual tour of Disney history. Let me show you what I mean:
