Who is the favorite of the baby kittens?
Marie! She's so sweet.
Fun Fact: out of all the main characters in this movie Marie is the most popular one of the cast. Which is why she has the most merchandise in Disney stores.
Im gonna say this without trying to be racist, the black one😂 only because i dont remember his name
All the kittens in _The Aristocats_ are adorable but my all time favorite is Toulouse the orange kitten, because aside from the fact he likes to paint he also had the most adorable cat hissing and puffing just so he can be intimidating and I can’t help but laugh my butt off whenever he did it in the film and also even imitate his cat hissing.🐈😁
@malytheson First, I'm black and saying the word "black" doesn't make the person racist. And second, his name is Berlioz. 😁
Fun fact: Toulouse is named after a painter named Toulouse-Lautrec. He is particularly famous for a painting called "At the Moulin Rouge" where one of the subjects has a green cast to her face due to the early gas lights in use, just like the painting of Edgar. Berlioz also plays piano and takes after Hector Berlioz, a French composer.
And little Marie, the singing kitten, might be named after Maria Callas.
I saw a theory once that Thomas O’Malley had three names because of the people who loved him over the course of his life. The first person/owner who named him called him Abraham DeLacey, the next person named him Giuseppe Casey, then the most recent person named him Thomas O’Malley. He loved all 3 people so he still keeps all their names in remembrance of their kindness. I don’t think there’s any confirmation about that, but I thought it was such a sweet backstory that I chose to believe it.😄
I love that theory. First time I’ve seen it 🥰
I also saw something that it adds names in the different languages too, like it calls him Romeo in the Italian version.
But I wonder why he wasn't that trusting of people thinking they are nothing more than just pets. Maybe he had more owners but they sucked?
audreylwalker, honestly that sounds surprisingly plausible.
I love it! Had a stray cat that I fed and called Thomas O'Malley in honor of this character :)
This was one of my most worn out vhs tapes as a kid. I love dear old Uncle Waldo.
Yup especially when he gets basted or should I say Marinated in White Wine all while saying: _"Sherry!"_ 🪿😅
Apparently he was voiced by Bill Thompson who voiced the White Rabbit and Dodo in _Alice in Wonderland;_ Mr. Smee in _Peter Pan;_ Jock, Bull and Joe in _Lady and the Tramp_ and King Hubert in _Sleeping Beauty._ Apparently Uncle Waldo was his first Disney role since King Hubert in _Sleeping Beauty_ and his final Disney animated film he participated in as he passed away in 1971 from septic shock a year after the release of _The Aristocats_
In addition, he was also the voice of Droopy from the MGM Cartoons by Tex Avery.
Yes, Rochefort is the voice of WInnie the Pooh as well. Sterling Holloway. He has a list of voices for Disney.
O'Malley is voiced by the same guy who did Baloo in the animated Jungle Book, and I think Little John in Robin Hood. Phil Harris.
I think when you guys thought Napoleon (the larger dog) was Copper and said his voice was familiar, it's because it's the same VA who voiced Chief from Fox and the Hound.
He also voiced the Sheriff of Nottingham in _Robin Hood_
Hugarian actress Eva Gabor was the voice of the mother cat she was also a voice in the rescuers and she had a tv show called green acres
Underrated Disney classic
I absolutely loved this movie as a kid. It was just always really fun to watch, and the cats were so adorable. I can't even begin to say how many times I would randomly burst into George's "ta-ra-ra" song. As an adult, I still love the cats, but I also enjoy the art style. It's similar to 101 Dalmations, and it's this really rough, stylistic thing that I actually like.
The french instrument is an accordion, not harpsichord (that is the piano-like instrument that has a fancy-type sound that you accosiates with the 17 - and 18th-century blue bloods).
One of Disney’s classic films the Aristocats also one of my favorites, I suggest also watching the great most detective classic Disney animation.
Robin Hood was my all time favourite disney movie growing up and I used to adore how many of the voice actors were also in this film. this is a super fun film and a close second for my favourite as a kid.
Fun fact: This movie, and “Homeward Bound@ were featured in the 1996 live action adaptation of “101 Dalmatians”. Glenn Close did an absolute good job in that remake!
I really love Phil Harris' voice work for his Disney characters: Baloo, Little John and Thomas O'Malley. They're all very similar and make me think of Han Solo for some reason. I just love his voice and style in these movies.
I love this movie. I would watch this movie with my grandparents every time I went to visit them when I was little.
I can't believe how many people thought the butler deserved the money because he was with her a long time and did a good job! (Probably mostly kids way of thinking) He was PAID for what he did, just like any employee. You dont get inheritances for being a good employee (unless youre really lucky) Killing someones cats is a definite way to NOT inherit!
i love aristocats this was my childhood favourite as well as the animated robin hood one
Animation Fact: when Dutchess is dancing during "Everybody Wants to Be A Cat" the Animation is directly reused from the dancing scene in Robin Hood. They just repainted the original as a cat to save time and money.
Aristocats was part of my childhood. I liked it. Thank you for doing this too 😊
I'm glad you do these underrated Disney movies. These classics deserve more attention.
I wish you could someday watch Great Mouse Detective. 🙏🏻
"That bird cage poppycock is for old people!" George Hautecourt.
Was i the only one who notice that James was falling asleep? haha poor thing 14:27 almost passed out
One of my favorite childhood movies
My sibling and I loved this movie as kids. We used to sing everybody wants to be a cat all the time
I wonder who the kitten's biological dad is and where he went? Always bugged me as a kid.
Duchess's rebellious phase 🤣
I am currently studying for Master's in French Studies, so it feels good to understand the French at the end of the intro song. :)
The scenes with George the lawyer and the parts with the dogs Lafayette and Napoleon always cracked me up as a child.
I love Roquefort the mouse. It's fun that he's named for a French cheese. LOL.
this movie, Robin Hood, and One Hundred And One Dalmatians.
my uncle had a selection of Disney movies, and I used to watch them back to back every time we went visiting.
Good classic movie. I remember watching these old classic disney movies as a child in the late 80s and early 90.
Another one of my childhood faves to go with Fox and the Hound. Beautiful artwork. I had a stuffed Duchess as a kid I cuddled.
My childhood!
This is one movie that I just remember really well for some reason. I wouldn't place it in my top favorites (but it is a favorite), but I do like it a lot. Generally my memory is really bad for anything, so this movie is an exception. The opening piano scene is the clearest memory for me though, and I've tried arranging that song for several different things just because I remember it well enough and it pops into my head at random times.
Guys; I can't believe you haven't watched Superman-the Movie And 1979's Salem's Lot. And yes it has to be the Original 1979 production.
One of my very favorites!
Actually when the little black kitten plays the piano is not accurate with the real notes or how a piano should be played and that’s because it’s actually really hard to animate any character playing instruments and replicate the same movements that people do in real life. When it’s about playing instruments you, most of the time, try to focus on matching the action with the sound so it doesn’t look off. Also it’s because you animate in 24 or 12 frames per second which is slower than the speed of the sound effect or dialogue used. The same goes when animators animate a character lip sync, animators don’t draw a difference mouth for each vocal but separate them by syllables or strong changes of sounds
I remember I had this movie on VHS when I was a kid.
Speaking of a mouse being a detective, I sincerely hope that The Great Mouse Detective (1983) is on your list for underrated Disney animated classics!
i'm so excited! i've been waiting for this reaction since you did the original disney classics. i would love to see some romcom reactions, especially with all 4 of you! the holiday and love actually are 2 amazing christmas ones
Now they say the song Everybody wants to be a cat is racist now.
Because of the Siamese cat part. It is a bit much looking back on it
I need more people to react to this movie, it's one of my favourites growing up, definitely help my cat love 😂
I love the aristocrats esp the music! I had forgotten about the geese. LOL
this movie is so ridiculous and i love it lol it was one of my comfort movies as a kid along with bedknobs and broomsticks!
Though Adelaide had her priorities in the wrong place, I do like how much she loves her cats. 'Jim Dear' and 'Darling' (from "Lady and the Tramp") would probably befriend her quickly due to their mutual love for pets... but they probably wouldn't stick around after hearing about Edgar. In fact, come to think of it, why doesn't she have any friends that she could leave parts of her fortune to? Yikes.
Well, crossover for happier ending - she befriends the L&T family and leaves the cats (maybe the horse too?) and a decent portion of her wealth to them... and leaves another part of the money and the house to Edgar.
my alllll time favourite disney movie as a kid haha
One of my favs
You guys should really watch The Great Mouse Detective. It's one of my absolute favorite animated movies from my childhood.
One of the best Disney songs ever 🎵😺
One of my favesss
Loved this reaction! You definitely need to check out Robin Hood and The Great Mouse Detective. Two other great Disney classics featuring personified animals
AAAAAAAA
2.40 The story would've turnd tragic if the butler was not there.....
👀
It was either this or 101 Dalmatians for me at Blockbuster for like 4 years straight. God I love it.
3:58 - It's been done numerous times.
4:11 - It would actually just be 12 years (more likely 11). He's making it way more complicated than it needs to be.
4:22 - NONE of them dollars, actually. This is France. it would be Francs.
4:50 - I've always loved the detail that the candle breaks in half but the pieces are held together by the wick.
28:35 - So did you catch the part that people today find offensive, or was the scene just too awesome for you to notice?
38:01 - That's the difference between good animation and GREAT animation.
Is this the time to bring out reaction to Oliver and Company~? :3
Ok, Oliver & co.
You guys should watch and react to the movie Vallhalla (1986) Its really good.
@whitenoisereacts Hi James, are you okay, you look tired. Please take it easy.
Basset hounds are A+ couch potatoes.
please do dinosaur, great mouse detective and quest for camelot
Shout out to Roquefort the mouse who the whole film is nice to the kittens, and immediately jumps to action to help when he knows they're missing. And does not stop trying to save and help them until the end of the film.
Very true! I know we give Thomas and the Alley cats the biggest love (which they rightfully deserve), but my little mouse detective rarely gets half the love, lol. He did everything he could to find Duchess and the kittens and put his justified fear aside to save his cat family. That's worthy of so much love! 🐭❤ Plus, that cracker and milk combo to this day makes me so hungry for some reason, lol.
The hero ❤🎉
Even when he was threatened with death, quite stressed (and likely pissed at their sheepish attempts to placate him), he just brushed the matter off because their safety mattered more.
Plus, it's not just him to the cats; they were quite fond of him as a friend too!
Absolutely. They rightly gave him the respect he deserved. Before the events of the plot and after. He's so happy when they're all jamming out it's just so nice to see his energy being put into conducting the music.@@Omegafire17
Little guy is the real MVP of the film
I love the Aristocats so much!! I thought “wow… your eyes really are like sapphires…” was such a romantic line as a little girl. It always made me blush.☺️ I still think Thomas O’Malley is really romantic and he’s straightforward with his feelings the whole time and it doesn’t take long for him to totally fall in love with the kittens and want to be a father for them… But, he’s also so respectful of Duchess’s choice to not go live with him at first because of Madame even when he doesn’t understand that. He’s a really amazing male figure in Disney to me!
Couldn't have said it better myself. How is it that a fictional cat has a way of making us feel things? Human men need to step up their game big time.
I'm in my 30s now, and I still will not settle for anyone who does not compare my eyes to sapphires!
So if you’re wondering why you recognise the voice actor who voices Napoleon (the dark brown bloodhound), it’s due to him also voicing the sheriff of Nottingham in the 1973 animated Robin Hood film and Chief in The Fox and The Hound
I never put that together! I love how many voice-acting connections there are within this period of Disney.
Not to mention he did the voice of Luke who drinks the booze 🥃 from the rescuers.
Yup Pat Buttram is the name of the actor who voiced Napoleon along with Chief from _Fox and the Hound_ and The Sheriff of Nottingham in _Robin Hood_ while the voice actor of Lafayette is George Lindsey who voiced Trigger the Vulture also from _Robin Hood_ but older generations are more familiar with George’s work from _The Andy Griffith Show._
Literally, this movie had several voice actors that would later work in _Robin Hood_ three years later such as Phil Harris, Pat Buttram, George Lindsey, and surprisingly enough the voices for Abigail Gabble (the Goose in the Blue Bonnet) and Amelia Gabble (the Goose in the Pink Bonnet) were Monica Evans and Carole Shelley who provided the voices for Maid Marian and Lady Kluck in _Robin Hood_
@@audreylwalker back then a lot of actors were used in most animated films. The guy who voiced the mouse in this did do a few of the Winnie the Pooh movies, and the actor who voiced O’Malley also voiced Baloo in jungle book and little John in Robin Hood :)
@@nathancruz9172 I only ever saw The Rescuers Down Under, which was such a good film!
Growing up as the daughter following her two older brothers around, AND being named Marie 😂, and all of us taking piano lessons for years, I've been compared to that musical little kitten for the past 3 decades! 😅 But I can't say that I am any less stubborn or sassy so maybe it's accurate 😂. This was one of my absolute favorite films growing up and still is! Once I got older and realized the iconic people that were behind the voices and why I recognized so many of the voices it made it that much better!!!!
My middle name is Marie lol. I dressed as her for Halloween when I was like 4 or 5
Roquefort (the mouse) was indeed voiced by Sterling Holloway, the voice actor for Winnie the Pooh (and also Kaa in The Jungle Book, Mr. Stork in Dumbo, and the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland).
What would be a really cute crossover idea for me is Pooh Bear discovering a mouse in his house, but he's so unbothered by him (because Roquefort is literally just vibing), that he allows Roquefort to stay.
As an older sibling I cannot begin to tell you how many times I used that "I'm the leader" line, until my Dad used it on me, of course! Also pretty sure this was my little sister's gateway drug to jazz music, even if she didn't realize it at the time. An iconic childhood classic.
i’m an older sibling as well and i constantly quote that line too! my son not too long ago used it against me when i was getting ahead of myself when we were walking by a park and i suggested we go to the playground. he said “i’m the leader, i say when we go! … ok here we go mom! ”
@@erikakagome7436
Eldest brother here, and I will not say more.😎
For anyone who cant remember the names of the kittens:
White kitten = Marie
Black kitten = Berlioz
Orange kitten = Toulouse
fun voice actor trivia. Thomas O'Malley was voiced by the same person that voiced Baloo in the Jungle Book and Little John in Robin Hood and The guy that was the leader dog did the voice as Chief in the Fox and the Hound. Love your videos!
Not to mention the actor who voiced Napoleon and Chief, Pat Buttram was also the voice of the Sheriff of Nottingham in _Robin Hood_
@@EChacon he was also in back to the future 3
And Lafayette, the smaller dog, was voiced by the same actor as Trigger from Robin Hood. The guard who keeps feeling suspicious and tries and fails to reassure about the safety being on Old Betsy.
Phil Harris, the voice of Thomas O'Malley, was a very famous radio actor, singer, and band leader back in the 1940s and 50s. He played a long-running character on *The Jack Benny Show* (one of the most popular of all radio comedies), then graduated to his own show, co-starring with his wife, Alice Faye. He made many popular novelty recordings, including "The Thing."
Thank you so much James and Nobu on reacting to this film, and it’s easily one of my favorite Bronze Age Disney films I watched constantly on VHS alongside _Oliver & Company._
The story maybe simple and the villain Edgar may not be the best Disney villain (although I still enjoyed him), but literally most of the characters (specifically Toulouse, Roquefort, Napoleon & Lafayette), the comedy and the music (mainly "Everybody wants to be a Cat!”) were such a delight to watch and listen in this fun film. However, the scenes involving the dogs, Napoleon and Lafayette and their shenanigans against Edgar the Butler, were without a doubt one of my favorite parts in the film and apparently even my parents especially my father enjoyed them so much in the film, that we even imitate Napoleon’s quote: _"I’m the leader. I decide..what I think it is!”_
Looking forward to your reaction to _The Rescuers_ and hopefully you do it’s sequel, _The Rescuers Down Under._
Finally, it’s worth mentioning that this movie had several voice actors that would later work in _Robin Hood_ three years later after the release of _The Aristocats_ such as Phil Harris, Pat Buttram, George Lindsey, and surprisingly enough the voices for Abigail Gabble (the Goose in the Blue Bonnet) and Amelia Gabble (the Goose in the Pink Bonnet) were Monica Evans and Carole Shelley who would later provide the voices for Maid Marian and Lady Kluck respectively in _Robin Hood._
And Scatman Crothers,The voice of Scatcat, was in Stanley Kubrick’s live action movie “The Shining”.
@@morganghostbusters-egonfan Yup and Scatman Crothers also voiced Jazz in the 1980s _Transformers_ cartoon and Hong Kong Phooey from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon of the same name
Honestly, it totally blew my mind that Scatman Crothers who provided the voice of Scat Cat, from _The Aristocats_ was the same actor who also appeared in _The Shining_ as I got older.
And the voice for Thomas also did Little John! And Baloo the bear from Jungle Book(1967) XD
In a way Edgar is the most tragic of villains...because if he had never heard a word about the will or if he were just better in maths, he would have never been a villain in the first place.
Awesome! One of the most charming Disney Animated films in the franchise. Hopefully you guys watch The Great Mouse Detective soon!
This is definitely one of Disney's most underrated films. Not quite up there with the well known masterpieces, but still a fun, wholesome, and enjoyable little flick. Also, "Everybody Wants To Be A Cat" is one of the catchiest bops ever.
Right up there with Oliver and Company, and the song "Why Should I Worry"
It my favorite disney film of all time. My cat who unfortunately died young was named Thomas O’Mally but we called him Thomas or Tommy. “Everybody wants to be a cat, because a cat’s the only cat who knows where’s at” - Thomas O’Mally
Idky people say "oh this movie is so underrated". I mean just because you or people you know hasn't seen it or liked it doesn't mean the movies is underrated. Almost everybody I know and their parents have seen this movie and love it. You also gotta think this movie is from a different time. My parents was in their late teens almost in their 20s when this movie come out. There's pretty much 8 billion people in the world and I'm sure a good handful has seen it. Mainly the older generation of like my parents time. So idk how this movie would be considered "underrated".
Real
@@breezy3392REAL
Also, the really young kids in my life really love Robin Hood and the Aristocats because there’s not a scary villain at all. Even though they’re clearly bad, Prince John and Edgar are more quirky and not as threatening. Kids who still can’t handle threatening villains (I was one of those kids for a while growing up) really love these charming movies. I think they’re great Disney movies to start watching with children & I think people of every age enjoy those movies too!
I say Prince John, Edgar, Yzma (albeit it’s debatable) and Alameda Slim we’re considered to be one of the funniest and less threatening Disney villains.
I like a wide variety of villain types
Edgar may not be outwardly intimidating but he is a threat in his own way and we see him become more and more brutish as the film progresses as well.
Those were in fact my two favorite movies as a kid (I was a bit of a scardy cat, lol). They are just such charming movies with good music
May not be one of Disney best films, but there two things I remember from this film, the dog chase scene,and the song “everybody want to be a cat”.
The scene with the dogs (Napoleon and Lafayette) were without a doubt one of my favorites in the film and apparently even my parents especially my father enjoyed them in the film so much we even imitate Napoleon’s quote: _"I’m the leader. I decide..what I think it is”_
Maybe not, but compared to the OTHER Disney movie which is about a Pet trying to get back to his owner (Bolt), it is way more charming. And also way more charming than pretty much all the other movies of this particular genre.
ScatCat is voiced by the legendary Scatman Crothers - who also played Mr. Dick Halloren in Kubrick's THE SHINING
(also, yes, the mouse is voiced by Winnie the Pooh VA Sterling Halloway)
Scatman Crothers also voiced Jazz in the 1980’s _Transformers_ cartoon and Hong Kong Phooey from the Hanna-Barbera cartoon of the same name
The character was originally meant for Louis Armstrong, who unfortunately passed.
All Edgar had to do was take care of 4 cats... he would obviously have full control of the account in order to take care of them.. and when they wer all passed he would have inherited everything.. like there would still be a ton of money after everything and he'd have the house... really screwed himself there..
Assuming there's no catch that the money would have to be spent on the cats care and only the cats. Cos otherwise Edgar could've hired someone else to take care of them in the meantime while he kicks back.
One of my core memories is of me watching my brand new Aristocats VHS while eating candy out of the decapitated and desecrated corpse of a Clifford piñata after the festivities on my 5th birthday
I recommend putting "The King And I" and "Oliver and Company" on your list of animations to watch. And maybe a cute little movie called Watership Down 🐇
yesss i'd love them to watch Oliver and Company! also The Great Mouse Detective
Yes they should do the king and I that one is so fun!
I would gently suggest that a viewing and/or reaction to the original live-action version of *The King and I* (1956) should precede a reaction to the animated version.
@oliverbrownlow5615 Oh that would be fun
Yes! Oliver and Company is my favorite
I'd be intrigued to see you do 'Basil: The Great Mouse Detective' soon after this.
Not many movies scared me as a child since I grew up in a history buff/military history type of family. But oi the villainous henchman following the child around .... that one used to scare me. Now it does but once I got.involved in being a middle school counselor.... it triggers major mama-bear anger.
Oh my goodness they should! I watched that movie and years later I heard rattigans voice and still got chills I was fourteen and couldn’t bring myself to look at a picture of his horrible grinning face cause of how creepy I’d found him when I was little. Vincent price is something else. Now as a Sherlock Holmes buff I want to watch it again because of the nod not only to Sherlock but Basil Rathbone who played the sleuth in multiple movies during the 1930’s and 40’s
A Disney movie I think you guys will enjoy is Meet the Robinsons. It’s very underrated.
I'll second this, amazing movie!
I’ll third this as well, cause I love this CG animated film. More than likely it will depend on the next Animated films they’ll react to in the upcoming weeks, but I think _Meet the Robinsons_ will happen once James and Nobu finished reacting to the Disney animated films from the Bronze Age and the remaining Golden Age films (e.g. Pinocchio, Fantasia, Dumbo, Bambi) plus _Sword in the Stone_
@@EChacon ooh! Forgot about Sword in the Stone! Looking forward to their reaction to it.
@@courtneyshumway1922 They’re reacting to _The Rescuers_ and presumably _The Rescuers Down Under_ for the next two weeks it’s hard to say when Sword in the Stone will be reacted.
I shall be the fourth to support this motion meet the Robinsons is amazing!
The milk the cats drank always looked so freaking good for lactose intolerant child me 😂
Forget the milk. What about that cracker?! 😋
I had the Asistocats on VHS as a kid. It was one of the tapes I watched till the VCR ate my tape. It was a sad day.
Also, fun fact, Duchess was voiced by Eva Gabor, a Hungarian actress. I always thought she made every character she played sound so elegant.
I had just watched your fox and the hound video earlier today and was thinking how I’d like to see you guys do Aristocats!
I was also a Disney VHS kid even though I was past the vhs generation. Here’s to not getting a DVD player until 2005!
Honestly this and _Oliver & Company_ were the Bronze Age Disney films that I watched a lot on VHS alongside _Dumbo, Bambi_ and _Aladdin._ 📼
My childhood, 🇩🇰🇩🇰🇩🇰
Fun fact, you guys did indeed peg the voices of chief from Fox and the hound as Napoleon and Pooh Bear as the mouse, but interestingly, you did not mention that in the Fox and the hound, the woodpecker is the voice of Tigger. He even does his trademark "hoo hoo hoo hoo!"
Paul was also the voice of the Siamese Cat who’s know for his "Fortune Cookie Always Wrong.” quote in _The Aristocats_
Milt Kahl, one of the animators for Aristocats and a lot of other Disney movies from this era, is AMAZING. I haven't seen anyone put in the same level of microexpressions in character animation. One of his signatures was that cocky little head swaggle the butler does, because it's such a flex to be able to do tiny head movements like that while keeping things in scale, on model, and do mouth flaps accurately all at the same time. You can spot a move Kahl worked on by that head swaggle.
Wow, that's really interesting and cool to find out! 😍
A few other really good and similar animations from the past include American Tail, The Secret of Nyhm, and Oliver and Company. They are all really decent and famous in their own right.
For me, this was basically a movie length cartoon: animated entertainment for kids. I think that's what they were aiming at, and they hit the mark. Very conventional for the period with a few adventurous moments, a few jokes, and a few songs. Nothing that would scare little kids too much. Very much in line with "The Lady and the Tramp."
As someone who grew up with cats, this was one of my favourite Disney movies!
The chase with the dogs is definitely a highlight of the film.
Aristocats is one of my childhood favourites. I remember on every single roadtrip we went on, I'd always watch it at least three times
I also remember watching it on VHS constantly alongside _Dumbo, Bambi_ and _Aladdin._ Personally this and _Oliver & Company_ were the Bronze Age Disney films that I watched a lot.📼
If this got a live action version I think Stephen Fry should be cast as the butler.
It is getting a live action remake
@@morganghostbusters-egonfanIt is?? Oh no, please no. Why? Can't they leave a few of them alone? I don't want the colour sucked out of this one as well with discovery chanel cgi cats Lion King style. Don't even want to imagine what they could do to the geese and the dogs.
@@TimeLady128 Yeah
Fun fact Thomas O’Malley is voiced by Phill Harris who also voiced Baloo on the Disney 1960’s version of the Jungle book as well as Little John on Disney’s Robin Hood.
Yeah, I definitely remember this movie and it totally made me say aw but like in a much cuter voice that I had a long time ago when I was six and my mom was just crying. I definitely remember her watching this with me. but I bet now if I watched it, it would make me cry plus this movie is cute and it has been a long time. It’s been like two years again so i’m also very very happy
PS I think it was all three of the kids just because of how cute they are
It's SUCH an underrated film in that era. And yes, it was the same voice as Pooh. Also O'Maley (sp) is the same voice as Baloo from the Jungle Book.
Literally, all Edgar had to do was take care of the cats after Madame died and he would have had everything. He's the dumbest Disney villain. A lot of these voice actors were also in Disney's Robin Hood. Some of the same animation sequences too.
When you're a kid, Edgar is an evil kitty killer who has to be stopped.
When you're an adult, you realise he works for a crazy old lady who left her money to her fucking cats.
Right, maybe instead the money could've gone to Edgar but on the condition that her cats are still taken care of.
@@rebajoe nah edgar is still off his rocker. The money belonging to the cats guarentees their care
Oh, I thought it said The Aristocrats. That's very different. Nevermind.
Thomas and Duchess are one of the best romances in Disney.
And Edger's fate is one of the darkest in Disney. He's going to die in a trunk in the hold of a ship.
This was one of the first Disney films that the Sherman Brothers (The duo behind Mary Poppins) came back to write the Music and Lyrics after Walt Disney's Passing. (Bedknobs and Broomsticks was the first, I recommend that soon since it has animation in it) and Maurice Chevalier, a well-known French entertainer came out of retirement to do the opening number.
Maurice Chevalier is legendary -- perhaps best known for his leading role in the musical *Gigi* (1958).
What I love about the voice acting in this era is that almost everyone had a history in radio or had worked on Disney projects before, so they know how to modulate their voices to the characters.
The actor who played Scatcat was a guy named Scatman
Yeah, the mouse's VA is the same guy who did Winnie the Pooh, he also does the Cheshire Cat in Alice in Wonderland by Disney, Thomas O'Malley is the same VA as Baloo from Jungle Book and Little John from Robin Hood, and the guard dog with the good hearing is the same VA as The Sheriff of Notingham from Disney's Robin Hood....those guys did a lot of voice work for Disney. Also during the dance number in O'Malley's Pad, you can see some reused animations...Disney is NOTORIOUS for reusing dance animations in these early films. Jungle Book, Robin Hood, and Aristocats all have reused dance animations between the three.
Pat Buttram is the name of the voice actor who did Napoleon, Chief and the Sheriff of Nottingham. Also George Lindsey who voiced Lafayette was Trigger the Vulture in _Robin Hood_
@@EChacon Never could remember names, just can recognize voices lol
@@ShinKyuubiSame here, even the same can be said for the voice actors in cartoons and anime, although compared the the voice actors from the Disney animated movies, there have been times where I mistook some voice actors for another voice actor, but that’s another story.
You guys should watch "Gay Purr-ee"! The main character is voiced by Judy Garland!
