## Trivia

* This special marks Sandy's first major crossover role without SpongeBob.
	+ This is also the first special to feature Hanna-Barbera characters, other than just the Scooby Gang, in a crossover. (Those being Huck Hound and Quick Draw).
* During the scene where Slim is about to write his name on the deed to the Little Patch of Heaven, we see that the date is May 4th, 1889. However, the audition for Patch of Heaven was dated on September 24.
* This was the third-to-last traditionally animated feature in the Disney animated feature canon, followed by *The Princess and the Frog* and *Winnie the Pooh*.
* This is one of the two posters along with Disney's live-action hockey film Miracle to be seen from the episode, *Opposites Attract: Part 1* on ABC's *8 Simple Rules*.
* According to the trailer, Maggie originally fed a piggie an apple from a barrel. This was likely a work-in-progress footage, because in the final version, Maggie pulled the apple out of the piggie's ear.
* This had the last trailer to be narrated by Mark Elliott.
* This had the last video release to have a THX certification, but the THX trailer was only included on the DVD, not the VHS.
* This is the last Disney film released on VHS and to be widely issued in that format as Disney's next film *Chicken Little* had a VHS release, but was rare and released as a Disney Movie Club exclusive.
* This is Alan Menken's only project in the Disney post-Renaissance era (aka the Second Disney Dark Age). His next project, *Tangled*, was released in the Disney Revival.
* This is the last animated movie from Disney to use the 1.66:1 aspect ratio, although the 2.35:1 aspect ratio is used for Buck's dream sequence.
* The film is often accused for putting traditional hand-drawn animation out of business in North America's cinema industry. However, traditional animation is actually still thriving in some European countries and Japan; mostly due to the popularity of both Cartoon Saloon's *The Secret of Kells* and *Song of the Sea*, film adaptations of popular cartoon shows from channels like Nickelodeon or Cartoon Network and various anime shows, particularly in Japan's case. That, and the actual reason why traditional animation isn't as common anymore is due to the fact that films like this have failed to achieve the same critical and commercial success as the computer-animated films from Pixar and DreamWorks (that were considered innovative for their time), which in turn, has convinced the industry (even Disney) that hand-drawn animated films are no longer that worth producing, if they will not turn out as popular as more superior computer-generated films, in terms of success and reception.
	+ On a similar note, traditional animation still thrives in the entertainment industry in America, but it is only used for television-based cartoons like *Adventure Time* and *The Simpsons*.
* In the documentary *The Pixar Story*, it's revealed that when the Disney company was dysfunctional and one of the storytelling executives rejected the idea of computer animated features, this movie was proposed while *The Brave Little Toaster* was in production. This poor choice is the main cause of Disney's Second Dark Age after the infamous falling out between Michael Eisner and Jeffrey Katzenberg.
* This the second Disney film to star both Jennifer Tilly and Steve Buscemi, the first was Pixar's *Monsters, Inc.*
* When the cows encounter Buck again, Maggie mockingly refers to him as the "Stallion of the Ci-moron". This is a reference to the Dreamworks Animated film *Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron*.
* The film was rated PG because of a comment Maggie makes about her udders. ("Yeah, they're real. Quit staring!")
* It is the only Disney film to not feature a cameo at any point in any scene in the film.
