* In ''WesternAnimation/Shrek1'', the word "ass" is used when it ''does'' literally refer to Donkey, e.g. Shrek saying "I have to save my ass" and Donkey saying "All right, all right, nobody likes a kiss-ass" but in one scene where it couldn't possibly be referring to Donkey, it gets a LastSecondWordSwap: "Shine your shoes, wipe your--FACE!"

* Played straight and parodied in ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}''. At one point Alex says "Darn you! Darn you all to heck!" This is when a wooden model of the Statue of Liberty is burnt down on a beach, and he misquotes Creator/CharltonHeston in ''{{Film/Planet of the Apes|1968}}''. Later on, this is parodied as a ParentalBonus. The protagonists are stranded on an island and a character makes a large "HELP" out of unsturdy tree trunks, and the right side of the P falls to the ground, forming "HELL".

Added DiffLines:

* ''WesternAnimation/TurningRed'':
** "Forget" is used in place of "fuck". This is subtle when Abby says "Forget that" a couple times but this is more evident when an enraged Mei says "Forget your money, and forget you!".
** Mei's use of "crud" is also odd considering she also uses "crap" a couple times.

* Jiminy Cricket in ''WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}}'' calls Lampwick a "jackass" even before he knew about the whole "turning boys into donkeys" thing. He meant in the sense of "jerk" or "fool." (Incidentally, the two homonyms for ''ass'' are etymologically unrelated.)

* Zig-zagged in ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}''. On one hand, there are multiple religious utterances ("Oh my God", "By God", "hurt like the devil", "Hell" gets said once, etc). On the other, Judy Hopps's favored swearword is "Sweet cheese and crackers!" and there are other similar euphemisms.

Added DiffLines:

* Several Creator/{{Disney}}/Creator/{{Pixar}} films use the word "hell" metaphorically to mean a very horrible place or situation. Other films use hell literally. Examples include:
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'': [=McQueen=] laments to a tourist couple passing through Radiator Springs "Don't leave me here! I'm in hillbilly hell!"
** ''WesternAnimation/{{Ratatouille}}'': Skinner greets Linguini on the latter's second day on the job with "Welcome to hell!", both of which are G rated.
** Maleficent in ''WesternAnimation/SleepingBeauty'': "Now you will deal with me and all the powers of Hell!"
** ''WesternAnimation/{{The Hunchback of Notre Dame|Disney}}'': Frollo says "Hell" about a dozen times, but it's always literal. His own ''[[VillainSong song]]'' is called ''Hellfire''.
** This is first invoked in ''WesternAnimation/{{Soul}}'', when Joe, noticing he's surrounded by baby souls, asks if he's in "H-E-double hockey sticks." Averted when the souls immediately respond with a chorus of "Hell?"
* In ''WesternAnimation/FantasticMrFox'', all swear words are replaced with "cuss", including the graffiti.
* ''WesternAnimation/{{Cars}}'':
** In the clip at the end of the credits: "For the love of Chrysler!"
** Mater uses "Shoot!" as a euphemism a few times in the film.
* Jiminy Cricket in ''WesternAnimation/{{Pinocchio}}'' calls Lampwick a "jackass" even before he knew about the whole "turning boys into donkeys" thing. He meant in the sense of "jerk" or "fool." (Incidentally, the two homonyms for ''ass'' are etymologically unrelated.)
* The dwarves in ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs'' swear "Jiminy Crickets!" The foul-tempered Grumpy goes so far as "Mad as hornets!"
* Averted in ''WesternAnimation/TheIronGiant'', which makes significant use of both "hell" and "damn" for a PG movie. We also have Mansley's glorious last line, from a dialogue with Gen. Rogard. Combined with [[spoiler:NeverSayDie, and PatrioticFervor]]:
-->'''Mansley:''' You mean we're going to...\\
'''Rogard:''' To '''die''' Mansley! For our country!\\
'''Mansley:''' (''finally snaps in fear'') Screw our country! I wanna live! (''tries to flee'')
** Previously, Rogard had told Mansley, "You just blew thousands of Uncle Sam's tax dollars outta your butt!"
* In ''WesternAnimation/WreckItRalph'', Fix-It Felix Jr. is a justified example of this trope, since swearing or being mean isn't in his code, so as a result, he ''can't'' swear or anything of the sort. An example is when Ralph attempts to break Felix out of jail. This line is spoken:
-->'''Felix:''' I don't have to do ''boo'' - forgive my pottymouth. I'm just so... so ''cross'' with you!
** Calhoun, meanwhile, sounds every bit like your usual salty military officer, while [[BadButt using no actual profanity whatsoever]].
* ''WesternAnimation/{{The Lion King|1994}}'':
** Timon censors Pumbaa before he says the word "fart." "Pumbaa! Not in front of the kids!"
** Timon is about to say "ass", before [[CurseCutShort turning said word into a scream]].
--->'''Timon:''' Why do I always have to save your [=aAAAGGGHHH=]!
* Played straight and parodied in ''WesternAnimation/{{Madagascar}}''. At one point Alex says "Darn you! Darn you all to heck!" This is when a wooden model of the Statue of Liberty is burnt down on a beach, and he misquotes Creator/CharltonHeston in ''{{Film/Planet of the Apes|1968}}''. Later on, this is parodied as a ParentalBonus. The protagonists are stranded on an island and a character makes a large "HELP" out of unsturdy tree trunks, and the right side of the P falls to the ground, forming "HELL".
-->'''Marty''': Oh, ''Sugar honey iced tea!''
** In the Spin-Off Series ''WesternAnimation/ThePenguinsOfMadagascar'' Skipper calls the Hoboken zoo a "Ninth portal of Hades".
* ''WesternAnimation/CatsDontDance'': Darla Dimple gets away with swearing in the German-language dub though not in the English. "I wouldn't have gotten all of this/If I hadn't learned to defend myself ''damned'' well!" This seems appropriate, considering [[AxCrazy her personality.]]
* In ''WesternAnimation/HotelTransylvania'', Dracula says "bat-''poop'' crazy" instead of "batshit crazy", and Mavis repeatedly says "Holy rabies!" instead of a stronger interjection.
* ''WesternAnimation/TheLEGOMovie'': Everyone speaks like this. It makes for good comedy when you have Creator/LiamNeeson as Bad Cop going "Darn, darn, darn, darny-darn!" when the heroes escape. [[spoiler: It's justified in that the entire story is being thought up by a young boy, who probably isn't old enough to know any real swears.]]
* ''WesternAnimation/DespicableMe'': Vector says "Oh ''poop''" when he finds out he's stuck on the moon.
* Zig-zagged in ''WesternAnimation/{{Zootopia}}''. On one hand, there are multiple religious utterances ("Oh my God", "By God", "hurt like the devil", "Hell" gets said once, etc). On the other, Judy Hopps's favored swearword is "Sweet cheese and crackers!" and there are other similar euphemisms.
* There's a point in ''WesternAnimation/TheAngryBirdsMovie'' where Red says "Pluck my life". In the UK, this was [[{{Bowdlerise}} changed to]] "What have I done?"
* In ''WesternAnimation/BatmanReturnOfTheCapedCrusaders'', Robin indignantly declares that Catwoman's attempts to [[WeCanRuleTogether seduce Batman to her side]] will succeed "when Heck freezes over".
* In ''WesternAnimation/ThePrincessAndTheFrog'', Charlotte shrieks "Cheese and crackers!" at one point. This is well known among more prudish folk as a way of saying "Jesus Christ!"
* In ''WesternAnimation/{{Shrek}}'', the word "ass" is used when it ''does'' literally refer to Donkey, e.g. Shrek saying "I have to save my ass" and Donkey saying "All right, all right, nobody likes a kiss-ass" but in one scene where it couldn't possibly be referring to Donkey, it gets LastSecondWordSwap: "Shine your shoes, wipe your--FACE!"
