You've done an incredibly good job of making Mickey lame and irrelevant to anybody over the age of eight over the last 30 years. I don't do games for kids.' They said, 'No, no, no!

- The trailer music.
- The faithful-to-the-cartoon Steamboat Willie level music, as heard here. It's an Ear Worm, too.
