Disney's Sleeping Beauty (1959) was not for kids. Sleeping Beauty is a cartoon adaptation of an opera. Its extremely boring for kids to watch, but its pretty great for adults. Arguably its "kid friendly", but only in the same way that the Nutcracker is kid-friendly. Its not really the kind of entertainment aimed at children though (like say, Peter Pan was). --------- Fantasia is also for adults IMO, though kid-friendly (no excessive violence/gore/sex... but a relatively dry musical performance though highly imaginative) --------- And Looney Tunes is also filled to the brim with opera / stage references that no child could possibly understand. It was clearly aimed at adults. It does leverage lowbrow humor just in case the audience doesn't "get" the musical / stage references... so I guess its more kid friendly than these other examples. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What%27s_Opera,_Doc%3F https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/What%27s_Opera,_Doc%3F
