Trivia: When Nani is chasing after Lilo, the young girl hides from Nani. In the original version, as seen on VHS and first edition DVD (and possibly other early releases), when Nani leans against the wall she hears the metal squeaks of the dryer door and realises Lilo is hiding inside the clothes dryer. In later releases and media, this specific scene has been altered: the audio of metal squeaking was removed; the dryer edited out and changed to Lilo hiding under a wood table, using a pizza box lid as the door blocking her from Nani's view.

Trivia: During Stitch's destroying rampage, he breaks a drawing by Lilo and she claims that it belonged to her "Blue period", an obvious reference to the painter Pablo Picasso.

Trivia: The number A113 appears three times in this movie. First, when Stitch has recreated San Francisco, it is on a license plate. The second is the license plate of the gas truck Stitch drives at the end of the movie. The third time is the fire truck at the end of the movie that goes to Nani's house. A113 is often seen in animated movies as a reference to the classroom number used by graphic design and character animation students at the California Institute of the Arts.

Trivia: When Lilo tries to play fetch with Stitch, he's uncooperative so she squirts him, and he throws the spray bottle. It then cuts to Lilo, Nani, and Stitch at the picnic area, and when Nani sits on the table, there's a Hidden Mickey within the tree's green leaves behind Stitch. (00:30:35)

Trivia: The same art designer for Lilo & Stitch did the art for Mulan. He was so inspired by the Japanese animator Miyazaki that he put a little nod to him. Nani goes to 'Kiki's Coffee Hut' to look for a job, and that name alone is a nod to 'Kiki's Delivery Service' that Miyazaki did.

Trivia: The Summer 2002 issue of Disney News advised readers to watch for references in "Lilo" to "Mulan," Walt Disney Feature Animation Florida's first feature film. I found two: A poster in the dog pound urging people to adopt a dog features a boy hugging Little Brother, Mulan's dog. Later, in a shot of a Hawaii street, one restaurant's name read "Mulan Wok".

Lilo & Stitch mistake picture

Deliberate mistake: When Lilo is told to think of a name for her "dog" while at the Aloha Animal Rescue, there's an adoption document on the desk. The document's paragraph is in fact an acknowledgment of appreciation for this movie's production. Although it's only briefly seen twice, there's sufficient time to read a few words, such as "project Lilo and Stitch" or "at Disney-MGM Studios," and particularly in the close-up as it's being stamped "making of Lilo and Stitch," the last words of the paragraph. (00:27:00 - 00:27:25)

Lilo: It's sandwich day. Every Thursday I give Pudge the Fish a peanut butter sandwich. But, today we were out of peanut butter. I asked my sister what to give him and she said a tuna sandwich. I can't give Pudge tuna! Do you know what tuna is? IT'S FISH! If I gave Pudge tuna, I'd be an abomination! I'm late because I had to go to the store and get peanut butter cause all we have is...is. Stinking tuna...Pudge controls the weather.

More quotes from Lilo & Stitch

Question: Does anybody know what "Meega Nala Queesta" means?

Answer: The movie contains two languages one is English, and the other is Hawaiian. Meega translate to I or me, and Quessta translate to destroy. I don't know what Nala means, people are telling me it means no or want, so essentially "I want to destroy".

Or it could be I no destroy but since they hate peace so much, they basically hate him.

Answer: As stated, it means "I want to destroy." But it should be pointed out it's a made up language, "Tantalog." Tantalog is a mix of Hawaiian, Chinese, and Chezcreekian. It's also spelled "kweesta." And "nala" means "want to" or "evil."
