** [[spoiler: The face on the middle tombstone (before transforming) during Facilier's demise is that of Madame Leota's headstone from Franchise/TheHauntedMansion. This makes sense as both the Disneyland Mansion and the film are set in New Orleans and deal with the supernatural, although the tombstone itself is only at the Florida attraction.]]

*** At the end, when Facilier [[spoiler:is about to be taken down by his [[WithFriendsLikeThese "friends"]], look at the three masks when they say "Are you ready?". Don't they remind you of three hyenas? Specifically, compare the shot with the one at the end of "Be Prepared" when the trio sings "Yes, our teeth and ambitions are bared". Also, Facilier calls them "friends", only to be proved otherwise, the same way Scar calls the hyenas friends before his demise.
