On the VHS version of the movie, when Koura says his unintelligible magic spells to summon the dark spirits against Sinbad and his crew, the closed-captioning shows the first time he does that "SSFUP AOCOC ROF OOKCUC MI" (which is IM CUCKOO FOR COCOA PUFFS spelled backguards); and "TTIBBAR YLLIS. YLNO SDIK ROFERA XIRT" (that stands for TRIX ARE FOR KIDS ONLY. SILLY RABBIT also spelled backguards).
