- Mickey Mouse is easily the most iconic character of all time, but all that popularity leads to tons of scrutiny. Can his recent projects back up his legacy, and does he even need to when he's already at the top?

I love Pete Charlie! I LOVE PETE!!!!!
U-um stripe, I don’t think you should be saying that out loud
57 petes
@@GraciousGoldy alternate cut of this video available on my onlyfans where I replace every word with Pete (and every Pete is replaced with Glomgold)
Honestly, I actually like Mickey, never hated him, I’ve always seen him as the guy who tries to keep everyone at Disney happy and is embarrassed of all the racist stuff the people at Disney made back then
I will always love Mickey, both the old and new stuff, but it's sad he's just doomed to be the face of corporate greed
@@StripeTheSquid ikr
I like to pretend that Disney probably gave Mickey the “You don’t stop dancing” talk from BoJack Horseman.
racist?
@@jskywalker58 the cartoons they made back in the day had stereotypes, not to mention in Peter Pan there were Native American stereotypes
37:29 "I can't think of the last time I've seen someone who genuinely says they LOVE Mickey"
So... who's gonna tell him? I mean, there's obviously a reason why my TH-cam channel exists, right?
Oh my god sir I am so sorry sure I will never question you again please don't smite me viva la MickeyMouseFan this is all for you buddy
@@StripeTheSquid Thanks lol 😆 Great video by the way!
@@MickeyMousekefan Thank you!
I associate Oswald with Walter Lantz more though because he was been more used than how many times Disney used him.
Universal didn't own Oswald until 1984 also Walter Lantz did use him and also transformed the character into a realistic rabbit and be on of the many friends of Woody Woodpecker (My older cousin has been obsessed with Woody Woodpecker and he has many comics and he also owns many merchandise of Oswald like a plush toy and a squeaky toy and a Woody Woodpecker album which has Oswald in it voiced by Mel Blanc and he gets his own song (Hop! Hop! Oswald the Rabbit! He hops all the way long!) but yeah Oswald wasn't forgotten until the Disney sits and does nothing on period for a short time)
Oswald has met Woody Woodpecker more than Mickey Mouse.
Ducktales 2017 my beloved
Della Duck
PEAK FICTION
Ah favorite horror icon
Honestly though, Mickey Mouse is genuinely likable. Characters that are that caring are hard to hate in my eyes.
I love his classic incarnation the most cause he’s so unhinged lol
I think most people know of Mickey at best through just pop culture osmosis or from the preschool shows. People don't wanna dive deeper into things like Epic Mickey or the 2013 show where he's a full character, so he's viewed as a one dimensional mascot and not an actual character
@@StripeTheSquidsomething similar happened to Felix the Cat. Comparing the version of the character from the silent cartoons with the one from the Joe Oriolo series, the former was allowed to be more an antihero
I wish oswald came back, and i kinda wish that they did more with mickey and friends.
God I wish we lived in that universe where we got Oswald show by the Three Caballeros crew. We get the occasional short every 3 or so years and frequent cameos, but I don't want that I want him to be with the rest
@@StripeTheSquid I wish it had Woody Woodpecker and Andy Panda in it.
The Pete Counter made me laugh a lot and I don't know why
Because Pete is just inherently the funniest character in fiction
@@StripeTheSquid That, and he's the oldest Disney character in terms of longevity.
The reason Pete’s daughter’s name is Pistol is to be a reference to the old-school NBA player “Pistol” Pete Marovich. I wonder if they considered naming her Rose at any point for a Pete Rose reference.
When you asked if KH helped Mickey Mouse's reputation in any way, one thing that I believe you forgot to mention (but I don't blame you seeing how you said you haven't played the games) is that KH fans tend to REALLY hate Mickey Mouse. While it's not exactly how it goes in the story, there's this misinterpretation of an event in one of the later games that implies that Mickey left Aqua, a pretty beloved character by the fans, trapped in the Realm of Darkness, getting her corrupted in the process. The reality is a bit more complicated than that (obviously, this is KH) and this interpretation mostly comes from the fact that Aqua, debuting in a prequel, isn't retroactively mentioned in the older games, but needless to say, you will find a lot of KH fans who really hate King Mickey.
Combine that with the meme of hating Mickey because he's a representation of the company, even more so here where he is literally a king.
Didn't know of that, but it makes sense. Sucks that he gets misinterpreted that way, but yeah, KH is a confusing series so even if it's wrong, it being misinterpreted isn't shocking
Mickey Mouse didn’t defeat Xehanort’s 13 vessels just for Darkwing Duck to take the first section
Why not
@@StripeTheSquid idk just figured it shoulda been like the original shorts or somethin
/j
@@RobinSpellbinder04 The original shorts? But this is about reboots and modern takes, why would I include the original stuff?
@@StripeTheSquid I guess "Mickey's House of Mouse Works" (which is what I call the two shows under the same idea) is like a modern take on "Walt Disney Comics and Stories", just in animated form. I say that, because there are a lot of tropes associated with the comic series, like different IPs crossing over each other, characters that are more familiar in the comics than they are in animation, and introducing character aspects of specific characters that weren't touched upon in animation, especially with Mickey himself. Personally, I'd prefer the "House of Mouse Works" Mickey over the "Wonderful World" Mickey, because there's a balance in how Mickey's personality is handled as a straightman character.
Funfact in Dream Drop they adapt the Three Muskteers, Dream Drop whole plot was to due movies that would not make senese in normal kh so we got the Tron Sequeal,a pincchio level that not monstro,Hunchback,Fantsia, (also scrapped Star Wars (i think was the clone wars series)
and Treasure planet section and this flim, Im guessing they want to still have Donald and Goofy in the game so this is a loop hole
I knew it was in KH (the music from that segment is from that level) but I didn't know about why they picked these levels, that's interesting
I hate to sound negative, but do you ever think Mickey getting angry is out-of-character for him?
I only ask because of when he kicked Pluto out of the house in “Mickey’s Twice Upon A Christmas” and the way he and Donald made scary angry faces at the number 10 in the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse episode “Mickey’s Round Up”.
If it's for something major, he can get angry and it's fine, Pluto destroying his house for example makes sense why he'd get mad. He may be a happy guy, but that doesn't mean he can't have other emotions
In Mickey Mouse Works for instance, one of Mickey’s best moments is when he snapped after the hell Daisy put him and Minnie through on their drive (I forgot the short’s name).
Similar to Donald, some of Mickey’s finest moments are when he has such clear emotions and isn’t just his usual happy go lucky self.
@@lelandatkinson5740 I don't remember the name either but I do recall the short. Yeah that’s a good example, Mickey needs to be pushed to be angry, and that was an entire day of him being pestered
@@StripeTheSquidWhereas Donald can easily blow his stack at the drop of a hat (as said by Mickey in “Split Decision”)
@@lelandatkinson5740the short was Daisy’s Road Trip
Julius the Cat is Walt's first character also Ub Iwerks created Oswald and Mickey not Walt Disney
I can't with the 0:35 - 0:38
Talks about Bugs Bunny: *BIG CHUNGUS*
Talks about Scooby-Doo: *ASURA'S WRATH WYZEN SCOOBY FROM DEATH BATTLE!*
Talks about Batman: *EPIC RAP BATTLE*
like wow
In the original cut it was just Bugs, Scooby and Batman with nothing fun. Then I decided to get quirky.
It's frustrating that Mickey gets no respect, but at least he's still used. Can't say the same for some other mascots. In particular, the characters from Will Vinton Studios [at least The Noid still shows up in Domino's Pizza media, and the California Raisins are used in Japan, albeit only the costumes in live action ads]. Honestly, the entire story of Will Vinton Studios is very sad and frustrating. I can never watch a Laika movie or buy a NIKE product after knowing what they did to Will Vinton himself. I highly recommend the Claydream documentary that goes into a lot of details. It's bittersweet, but it's a story that more people need to know.
I actually love Mickey and Minnie and I feel like they don't get enough respect. I wonder how different things could've been had Disney not cancelled The Search For Mickey Mouse movie. As for the Chip N Dale Rescue Rangers movie, I DESPITE what they did to Peter Pan for the reasons everyone has mentioned. But hear me out, I actually think the movie could've worked at least a little bit better had the villain been Julius The Cat from the Alice Comedies. He's actually a lot more sadistic then Mickey and Oswald and straight up has VILLAIN behavior. Two biggest examples are the shorts "Alice Gets Stung" and "Alice's Orphan". As for House Of Mouse, I had a pitch for an episode where Taran [The Black Cauldron] and Peter Pan pull [light-hearted] pranks on everyone and taunt the villains.
Honestly, I don't think Search for Mickey would help a lot. It would've done well nostalgia wise, but it would be right before the internet blew up, when "Mickey is an evil corporate entity" became mainstream. Timeline wise, it would've aired around the same time as Three Musketeers, which only got attention recently. Plot wise, it's very similar to Once Upon a Studio, which while critically praised, came out during Disney's worst financial year and was ignored for the most part.
Julius would be fun, but it's clear they wanted a hero turned villain. Personally, I'm partial to Pinnochio. He wants to be a real boy, but real boys have to grow up. It's basically Pan but removing the uncomfortableness of Pan's unfortunate backstory paralleling real life
have you not heard that epic mickey is getting a remake?
No I heard, I just didn't bring it up since it's not out yet
honestly i think why people started hating on mickey is not the character himself but rather because the character is the face of disney, and disney themselves have been making alot of bad decisions that are making them costly. sure disney might have one good thing come out every once in a while but otherwise their recent stuff has been not too great to be honest and not to mention them getting involved with alot of controversial stuff lately doesn't really help the poor mouse's reputation. but yesh mickey himself is not a bad character, far from it. its disney that is the problem not mickey.
Oh no that's 100% it, I even said it in the video
@StripeSquid oh really? Man I should watch through. No worried I will make sure to do that. Yesh poor mickey, guy sadly is dealing with the bad press because of the company. But yesh I just was looking through comments and wanted to see what others were talking about. Also have a like for an interesting discussion friend. It's always nice to find something good to listen to.👍 aw what the heck have my subscribe too man you got my attention.
@@Dunkinarts Thank you!
The Gremlins are actually just characters made by the Royal Air Force
They were gonna get a film though
Pete’s family tree is big! If you look at cartoons or comics or things like that.
Ducktales 2017 has a Gummi Bears episode which makes it peak
Why are you so obsessed with the most 6\10 Disney show of all time
@@StripeTheSquid gummi bears is peak Disney cartoon. Gusto is peak character
@@litestonelgbt It wasn't even an honorable mention for my top 35 Disney shows and I don't regret that decision. It's not bad but it's nothing special.
Hope you're having a good day
I am thank you
@@StripeTheSquid welcome c:
30:07 They likely just used archive audio for Pluto seeing as he is just mostly barking and other dog noises
You know, it seems so obvious that I'm almost kinda embarrassed I didn't put it together, yeah that's almost certainly why
It's always so weird that I sorta always thought of Mickey as the "main character" of Disney, in a sense, yet he's got such a lack of popularity right now compared to others born originally from the same minds. Feels like a waste. He seems to command a net zero nostalgia right now. Really wild.
Occasional things pop up. House of Mouse, 3 Musketeers, Clubhouse, but it's more so the idea of them. People like HoM for the crossovers, but not the show itself. 3 Musketeers is a bit better, people like the dynamic the main 3 have and Pete being at his most villainous, but is at best a cult classic. Clubhouse is just "huh I watched that as a kid" and memeing on Mortimer Mouse that's it it's a fleeting thought.
A lot of the genuine fanbases for Disney properties are things like Marvel and Star Wars, which are mostly disconnected from the company, and the animated shows, which Disney tends to ignore and most fans of tend to resent the company. Mickey himself doesn't have an active fanbase, nor do the actual movies outside of the REALLY big ones like Frozen and Lion king. With Mickey as the face, that apathy or resentment is directed to him.
The Harry Potter joke is so funny hahaha
Felt like a good way to end Pride Month
As someone who also still struggles with this, I gently recommend working on enunciation for these. Your words slur together a lot and it makes a very interesting video very hard to parse.
Yeah.
I know it's a problem, and I try to work on it, but it's just really hard, and I'm not entirely sure how to improve it. You said you struggle with it too, do you got any tips?
@@StripeTheSquid I do most of my stuff off-camera, purely voice over, so I found that it actually helped a bit to look into tutorials on voice acting. Usually enunciating is something I have to consciously remind myself to do, so if there’s ever anything you’re saying off-camera I’d do that, and for stuff that’s ON camera I suppose just practice enunciation of the script before filming/takes.
@@ThePonderer This is genuinely great advice, thank you. Next video is recorded but I will look into this for the video after, thank you
Goof Troop: forever known as the show Pan Pizza (of RebelTaxi) cracked his skull to watch
It’s late at night and I haven’t watched this video yet so I’m commenting so I can remember to check back tomorrow and watch this video.
Quick little disclaimer about me: I LOVE Mickey Mouse so much. Something about this little rodent makes me smile. I collect some things about him but there’s so much Mickey stuff in the world, I mainly collect Oswald the Lucky Rabbit stuff. My grandma made me a Mickey Mouse pillow case and I carry the pillow with me every trip I go on. I always go to school with a Mickey Mouse shirt on to. Mickey as a character to me is so fascinating because of his history and to me he is such a fun loveable character if you actually watch his shows and movies and not just Mickey Mouse clubhouse.
I love making alternate universes and one is actually how Mickey is coping in life being the mascot of a large basically corrupted company. I wish others would see Mickey and not just a mascot and as a character like I do. I also adore Oswald he is also my idol. Anything Oswald I see at the parks or at shop Disney I will buy it!
Mickey and Oswald are literally my idols, friends, and comfort characters.
I’m going to check back on this video tomorrow and see what it’s all about because it seems so interesting! It’s late though and it’s kind of a long video so you bet I’m going to save this and come back later :)
I appreciate it thank you!
I remember back in early 2010's Oswald was EVERYWHERE. He had as much merch as Donald and Goofy. It's because of Epic Mickey of course, but like, a decade later, it's shocking that we went from 100 to 0. He went from on par with Mickey at best sporadic cameos.
I do appreciate how this comment section is showing me that I'm not alone. Mickey is a fun character outside of just Disney's soulless puppet, and people should be able to appreciate him for that
Oswald is more of a friend to Woody Woodpecker he met him more than Mickey Mouse and the only Disney character me met prior to Disney's Trade of him was Pete well... Bear Pete (Also known as Putrid Pete or Bootleg Pete)
@@StripeTheSquid I finished watching the video and omg are you underrated! I enjoyed seeing every Mickey and Friends film mentioned and it encouraged me to go back and watch them! Mickey and the Three Musketeers was my favorite!
I found out who Oswald was when I was younger. It was my birthday back in 2015 and my family took me across America (since we are closer to DisneyWorld) to DisneyLand. I had no idea who Oswald was but when we were in California adventure and Oswald was meeting up in the front, my mom had asked if I wanted to meet him. When I did, the first hug with him just kind of changed my life and I don’t know how. Now and days I rarely see Oswald merch unless it’s for a high price on EBay. I jump up and down whenever I see him on something (like on the kids menu in 1923 on the Disney Wish cruise. I was embarrassed to ask for a kids menu just because it had Oswald on it lol. I got to keep the menu though!) Ever since then I had a hobby of researching not just Oswald, but Disney and its history. Hopefully with Epic Mickey rebrushed there will be more of him. Like a Funko Pop in target or something lol
I wish people wouldn’t just look at Mickey as a soulless mascot. He has so much character into him besides a perfect, happy all the time flawless character.
My dream is to someday make a cartoon series or movie of my own that will inspire people and have great comfort characters just like Mickey and Oswald are to me! I wish I could make a Mickey movie myself especially it being official but the odds of that are most likely not gonna happen lol. I’ve always told my friends I wanted to be a director/producer for a movie and every movie I watch or see a review on TH-cam, I take notes about what makes the audience love the movie and what does the audience dislike about it. I also point out my own opinions on it and strong notes that the movie has. I don’t know if I’ll ever get to where I want to be for now it’s a great hobby and just seeing these characters mentioned or on screen is something that makes me smile every time!
Also you just gained a new sub :D
@@JaxCoolKartunes I knew Oswald was in Woody the Woodpecker but I never really mention his time with him. His designs were weird and questionable for me. Honestly, I personally never liked Woody the Woodpecker. His iconic laugh and personality was just annoying for me and I never find his films interesting. It’s either too much or too boring lol. Just my opinion. I still like to think Mickey and Oswald still talk considering they’re now canonically in the same world now. Maybe someday we can get a sibling reunion :)
For now I’ll stick to Epic Mickey and the drawing of Mickey and Oswald together in Mickeys room at Magic Kingdom where you can meet him (It’s literally so adorable how mickey has a drawing of them together in his room)
@@Kaylee_Creates Really cute story about Oswald, we all got that one character where wish to collect EVERY piece of merch for. Wish you luck in making a series as well.
I don't think Mickey will every been seen as a soulless corporate entity unfortunately. Most people who think this are adults, and everyone knows Mickey at this point. Watching a series of a character they think is boring is gonna be a hard sell for these people.
Chip n Dale: Rescue Rangers is not at all a masterpiece, but I still really liked it. Only parts that really bothered me were, as you mentioned, the choice to not have the cel-shaded charactered be fully 2D despite all of the fully 2D characters throughout the movie, and more importantly, Sweet Pete in general. Otherwise, I had a lot of fun with it, mainly because of everything else it did with the animation, and the non-Disney cameos.
I play up my hatred for that movie, but in a weird way, I loved it. It's such an insane fun movie that I was never bored once with it. Outside of Sweet Pete's uncomfortableness everything bad with the movie just makes it so much more fun
i thought the movie sucked
22:51 Nope. 'Twas Julius the Cat.
We’re three caberllos we’re three caberllos they say they are birds of a feather (panchito is the g.o.a.t.
To be fair, ducktales(2017) is really good
It is!!!
Best Mickey would probably be from the comics, like those by Floyd Gottfredson and Paul Murry. But of course those are from like, the 1930s to 1950s, not from the 90s and beyond...
Someone else brought these up too, I like those comments a lot, but yeah, I wanna focus on 90's and after since I wanted to look at modern takes
@@StripeTheSquid Honestly, I thought even the later comics were still alright in that they at least put Mickey in interesting situations. He's a respectable character when he's allowed to be one at all, even if he might not be Disney's *best* character.
yall i think this guys likes pete
An interesting take on the retrospective of Mickey. Though if I had one critique, I kinda wish your narration was a bit more clear. I had some difficulties understanding exactly what you were saying. The Pete counter alert also drowned it out a number of times.
For me, Mickey Mouse was always an iconic character, that’s coming from an ironic sentiment. He was reportedly among the first fictional characters I recognized in my youth - to the point where whenever I saw anything remotely similar in shape or formation of his iconic silhouette (including a trio of jet fighters flying overhead), I would immediately identify it as “Mickey Mouse”.
It’s interesting that you only covered the media appearances of the ‘90s onwards since I would argue that Mickey’s search for relevance started much earlier. WWII was probably the first time the character found himself getting shoved out of the limelight. This was deliberate since Walt apparently didn’t want the character to be associated with the war effort and all the other edgy screwball cartoon characters that populated the cinemas at the time, but it kinda ended up hurting his media presence as a result, leaving Donald and Goofy to become more prominent stars. It wouldn’t be until the ‘50s when Disneyland (both the theme-park and the TV series) and “The Mickey Mouse Club” made the character somewhat relevant again - though even that was short lived once the ‘60s-‘70s rolled around.
I know your take on the "Rescue Rangers" film wasn’t too favorable, but honestly, I thought it was a riot. It’s easily the most experimental film Disney has released in this decade par none, and it was really apparent that the people helming the film were animation buffs themselves. And while it would be naive to say it rivals “Who Framed Roger Rabbit”, I would argue that it’s the closest film we’ve gotten to matching its wit and cleverness so far (“Looney Tunes Back in Action” was alright but incredibly flawed). And while Sweet Pete’s resemblance to the real Bobby Driscoll was unfortunate, it apparently wasn’t intended since originally, they had another character in mind for the role, but they went with Peter Pan since Disney already had the rights.
It’s a pity that Disney had to extend the copyrights of Mickey for that long. Had they let the character expire back in 2004, we probably would’ve seen more creative usage of the character compared to today.
Yeah speaking is hard for me, hence the joke about people not understanding me like Donald in the Quack Pack segment, but someone else in this comment section has suggested some tips to improve. It's just hard because that's just kinda who I am, hard to change your voice.
Oh obviously he's been relevant for longer, but I wanted to look at modern reboots only, like I did for Hanna Barbara last year. See how the renovated Mickey as a character and series. If I included EVERYTHING, well, this video would be even more ungodly long.
As I said, I still highly recommend it. It's awful, but it's hilarious, and I love how experimental is, even if it's really really bad. I am aware Sweet Pete was a coincidence (it was originally Charlie Brown, but they couldn't get the license, and then Pluto, but Disney was too protective) and it makes sense as a concept (the boy who can't grow up had to grow up), but it's a well known story and Disney is a huge company, you'd think one person would question it
@@StripeTheSquid It would be interesting to have a follow-up or a brief rundown of some of the more notable attempts at reviving Mickey due to his new public domain status. Yeah, a lot of it is lazy, slap-dashed horror games and movies, but there have been at least a few unique attempts at adapting the character. Probably the strangest and most funniest example is how Mickey is now a real character in Erik Larsen’s “Savage Dragon” by Image Comics.
@@geoffreyrichards6079 Not against it, but a year should probably pass so the dust fully settles and these things can come out
This was a surprisingly interesting video to me 🙌
Thank you!
Pete counter? I ardly
Cease
hi. I'm one of those rare breeds of unironic Mickey fans, and yeah i'm SICK of corporate jokes. I can't even talk about my comfort character without mfs going "ermm isn't he the evil greedyman who buys everything and ruined Star Wars??". I mean i made at least 3 AI Mickey covers and ALL of those videos have a corporate joke (it's at it's worse in the most popular one, Die In A Fire where half of the comments are corporate jokes)
tangent aside i'm really hoping Epic Mickey Rebrushed does well and ACTUALLY reignites some love into old Mick (and Oswald, but pretty sure everyone ̶in̶c̶l̶u̶d̶i̶n̶g ̶m̶e, ̶h̶e'̶s ̶m̶y ̶f̶a̶v̶o̶u̶r̶i̶t̶e ̶d̶i̶s̶n̶e̶y ̶c̶h̶a̶r̶a̶c̶t̶e̶r ̶f̶o̶r ̶g̶o̶d̶s ̶s̶a̶k̶e loves him)
My question is why doesn't this happen to any other mascot? Mario, Spongebob, Bugs, Sonic, it's the same joke of "cute iconic character but a greedy corporate overlord" but it's ONLY Mickey. It's been going on for decades, and it just simply isn't funny anymore. Every adult cartoon, every political cartoon, every comedy youtuber and every Disney animated parody makes the same joke. It's white noise at best now.
The original Epic Mickey is peak nostalgia era right now. If Disney pushes this game hard, they could reignite Mickey's love. Oswald in particular I'd love to see more of, he's ridiculously underused despite being a fairly popular character
@@StripeTheSquid pretty sure Mario gets those types of jokes too. But they're so few and far between that you CAN unironically love Mario without being judged
it's frustrating
@@somemadnessfan4763 I'm sure all 4 have that a bit if you dig deep enough, but it's not well known, like how Mickey's joke is. I get it, Disney is THE company to mock, but at a point, people have to know when to let a joke die
LETS GETS DANGEROUS

Mickey also appears in horror games like Five Nights at Treasure Island and other FNAF Fan Games. I'm also surprised that you did not use Mickey Mouse from South Park.
I only looked at official interpretations
