The first Disney animated feature with songs by Richard M. Sherman and Robert B. Sherman.

This was the first Disney animated feature made under a single director. Previous features were directed either by three or four directors, or by a team of sequence directors under a supervising director. The man hired for the job was veteran animator Wolfgang Reitherman (one of the fabled Nine Old Men), who would direct all of the Disney features up until the 1980's.

Although Walt Disney never knew it, he himself was character designer Bill Peet's model for Merlin. Peet saw them both as argumentative, cantankerous, playful and very intelligent. Peet also gave Merlin Walt's nose.

When Mim is sitting at the table playing solitaire, she pulls the 3 of hearts from the deck, however the 3 of hearts is already on the table.

When the sugar bowl flies to Merlin's bag, it is seen flying under the lid and spoon on the table.

When Wart is climbs the small dead tree behind Kay on his hunting trip, he is wearing red tights. In the next shot he has bare legs, but then he has his red tights again.

Arthur: Merlin! Merlin, I-I swallowed a bug!

Sir Ector: [thundering the words] GADZOOKS! BLACK MAGIC OF THE WORST KIND!

Merlin: [covering Sir Ector with magical indoor snow] That is what I call a "wizard blizzard".
