No Scary Parts: a browser extension that skips scary scenes on Disney+
No Scary Parts is a chrome extension that skips creepy scenes in classic Disney movies on Disney+. Since the beginning, every Disney film, without fail, has included a weird scene or two that traumatizes generations of kids, from Dumbo's pink elephants to Fantasia's Night on Bald Mountain. Currently I have 5 movies supported. If you have a sensitive toddler or don't want flashbacks to your own childhood, try out this extension.

So, it just won't let you watch Finding Nemo at all, right?

I believe it was probably the third Scary Part that was the one that made small me nope out of The Little Mermaid when I was watching it on VHS circa 199-something. I've never seen the whole thing.

This is a fantastic idea. I am 67 years old, and vividly remember standing up in shock in the theater screaming: "They killed Bambi's mommy! " I was dragged out of there and yelled at in the street by my mother (yeah, no comfort there). lol

And Old Yeller. Shoot the dog that saved your lives, excellent plot. That was released in 1957 when I was 4 years old, I don't know when I first saw it but... more screaming and crying.

Lion King... need I go on?

You are brilliant. May thousands of traumatized kids salute you; and, as parents, aunts and uncles spare present and future children from Disney's strange ideas of entertainment.
