A true Disney fan would hate Enchanted because it made no obvious references to The Rocketeer. Surely they could have fit in a Nazi or even just one gratuitious shot of Jennifer Connelly's cleavage!

They could have also used the line
Giselle: How do I look?
Robert: Ya look like a hood ornament.
Also a reference to The Apple Dumpling Gang wouldn't have hurt either.

Thanks for this example. I've seen this one in "9 to 5" where Violet was dressed as a Snow White ripoff played by Lily Tomlin. I posted these screen caps. This was long before "Enchanted" was made. Those of you haven't seen "9 to 5" here they are, but they looked similar.

This one is similar compared to this one from "9 to 5".
I'll post more later.

I can't believe that no one has posted a comparison of the poisoned apple rolling out of Snow White's/Giselle's hand after she has fallen to the floor.
Snow White falls from screen left to screen right, and Giselle the other way around, but it's a definite reference, surely? |

Am I the only one who saw this "Aladdin" reference?
Blanket = Magic Carpet
Giselle's turquoise dress = Jasmine's turquoise outfit
Belly dancer = obvious reference to Middle East

I've always wondered what's with that woman between Robert and Giselle - is she some reference to Lumiere from Beauty and the Beast? I got the impression that she's a reference to something, cause the camera just kind of lingers on her for no reason... |

That's why I think it has to be an "Aladdin" reference. Some belly dancers use that technique (holding candelabra on their heads) and Middle East/Arabian countries are famous for belly dancers. Otherwise it makes no sense to have her in the scene. |

Good one! I never would've caught that one in a million years!  Nice job, mooky! 
I think I'll post some of the ones I was going to post earlier before somebody came along and told us off. Speaking of...

Mary Ilene Coselotti and the Fun and Fancy Free clip were the only "real" Disney references. Clearly not impressive for a true Disney fan: a fan who loves mostly everything that make up Disney(the animated movies, the shorts, the theme parks, Walt himself, television, merchandise etc.) and actually knows Disney and is smart enough to point out the Walt era didn't just start with Snow White and end with Sleeping Beauty. A good Spielberg movie usually has more Disney references to offer than Enchanted . |
Yes, I'll admit that it could have been complete coincidence that all those things ended up in the film. But because Enchanted was labeled as a tribute to past Disney animation (not the parks, merchandise, etc), everything that has been mentioned is significant, and supports the film's label with saying it is a tribute.
And you keep saying that Spielberg's films have more Disney references than Enchanted, but you never tell us which one, or give us any examples of the references.

I just sort of assumed that the camera lingered on her because she would be providing the "fire's glow" to the "private picnic" about which Giselle is singing in that particular moment. I did think of Beauty and the Beast with the chandelier and Aladdin with the Middle Eastern look of her costume, though.
And to whoever posted the shot of Giselle waving while she and Robert are sitting on the blanket for the picnic and compared it to Jasmine waving from her magic carpet ride with Aladdin? I love that! Al/Jas and Robert/Giselle are my favorite Disney couples; that comparison, intentional or not, made me smile. |

Now it makes me wonder what other background singers/dancers are Disney references  |

Same here, except I never considered the middle-eastern look.
As promised, here are the caps I took of the troll's loincloth, as well as his earrings.
    
The first shows the earrings, which are Ariel's sea shells. The second shows the troll's back, which are Aurora and Cinderella's peasant dresses (respectively). The third shows Belle's and part of Snow White's. The fourth is basically the same thing, except less detailed, but easier to see. And the fifth is like the second, except the colors are a little more like the original coloring, so Aurora's actually looks like her peasant dress.
I also decided to upload one of the two Princess and the Frog references:
And, three of the bell jar with the rose in it (like the one in Beauty and the Beast) that's in Giselle's cottage:
  
I'll try to find whatever I had left, but I think I already uploaded all of the ones I made already- or at least most of them. We'll see. Anyway, enjoy, guys!

Actually, I thought that was a reference to King Triton.
And the dress pics were great! Thanks! |

There's a scene where Narissa insists Giselle comes with her to the fountain, which looks just like the scene where Jafar (as the old man) tries to persuade Aladdin to come with him to the Cave of Wonders. In fact I'm pretty sure it's the exact same piece of animation. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Very good! I didn't notice until you said something, he has a beard like Triton, and it and the crown are made of bubbles (like from water, from the sea). I think they did a cross reference. Kind of like how they had children playing Rapunzel for the upcoming film version, but used square Sleeping Beauty trees.

And this is a non-Disney reference I found, both Anastasia and Giselle have the same hairstyle and pyjamas
