CLIPS on Instagram: "🎬 Fun Fact: Lilo & Stitch (2002) The film’s Hawaiian setting was brought to life with a unique watercolor background style — something rarely used in animation after the 1940s. The directors, Chris Sanders and Dean DeBlois, wanted the visuals to feel soft and storybook-like to match the intimate, family-centered story. This choice made Lilo & Stitch stand out visually from other animated films of its era and gave it a warm, hand-painted look that fans still recognize today.

Purely History on Instagram: "Back in 2002, Disney pulled off one of its most creative marketing campaigns with Lilo and Stitch. Trailers showed Stitch hilariously crashing iconic Disney classics like Beauty and the Beast and Aladdin. The playful crossover ads made audiences laugh, setting the tone for Stitch’s mischievous yet lovable character."
