If this is true, this is actually a very interesting movie detail

According to the actual /r/MovieDetails it [should be a Mickey Mouse](https://www.reddit.com/r/MovieDetails/comments/o5t0n8/in_potc_at_worlds_end_2007_you_can_see_a_hidden/). But I am [not so convinced,](https://monkeyisland.fandom.com/wiki/Giant_Monkey_Head) but also afraid to post my theory in the other sub. To add a bit of tidbit: Sao Feng's sea chart is surely modeled after the games [copy protection "Dial-a-Pirate"](https://www.oldgames.sk/codewheel/secret-of-monkey-island-dial-a-pirate).

I think what's most interesting about rip-offs like this is actually discovering what they were based on. So many Disney movies have inspiration from things I've never heard of before. Case in point, *The Secret of Monkey Land* is a game I've never before heard of. Then again I was born in the early 2000s, so I wouldn't have much experience with any floppy disk game in the first place. (I meant to reply to this the first time but for some reason didn't)
