Disney Guy Review - The Aristocats

[@CCRoxtar]

The AristoCats would be the cat version of Lady & the Tramp except that Duchess has her kittens to begin with, & thus O'Malley ends up as sort of a stepdad to them. Whereas Lady has her puppies near the end of her film, with Tramp as the bio dad.

[@slinger0083]

I’ve been binge watching these reviews. I love that they cover the background and behind the scenes work.

[@musiclover_kb4913]

Great review dude. I used to watch this movie A LOT when I was a kid, and it was one of my favorite Disney films. Truth be told, it still is one of my favorites, but at the same time it is rather simplistic and one of the less admired films in general. The best part of this film is undoubtedly the music, especially with Everybody Wants to Be A Cat, still such a high quality, fun, energetic, jazzy song. Oh and THANK YOU for stating how certain scenes feel out of place and take time away from the main plot. This is especially true of the scenes with the 2 dogs, Napoleon and Lafayette. I was watching those scenes on KZbin and I realized that as funny and entertaining as they are, they add NOTHING to the film, and it wouldn't change a damn thing if you cut them out. So I'm glad I'm not the only one who shares this opinion. However I can forgive the scenes with the Geese cause after all, they did help Duchess and the kittens get back to Paris, so there is a bit of a connective tissue with that.

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

Yeah, I have that sort of feeling with a lot of films. In my mind that doesnt make them worse, per say, but just shows off my own evolving tastes in movies as I get older

[@bohemianlucy4726]

I loved Aristocats as a kid, but the first time I watched it as a kid, when the movie ended I remember thinking "That's it?" I dunno, it always seemed so short to me.

[@runnit5863]

Bohemian Lucy I mean the film itself it’s an hour and a half long, but I agree, however now I’m older the art style is amazing so it makes it longer as I pay more attention

[@jasminemiller7485]

Wow, I'm not the only one who had that thought when I saw it the first time.

[@IconicallyCat]

I just want aristocats tv series and aristocats 2 3 and 4 of all the kittens 😸

[@keshiaanders6452]

The movie is heavily underrated, outside of the character Marie. I like Marie, she's cute and all; but I think her brothers, mother, step-dad, and the movie they all came from deserve some appreciation.

[@gugurupurasudaikirai7620]

10:27. Eva Gabor with a wildly different partner was a thing at this point. Heck, I think this movie came out before Green Acres was cancelled

[@leighrmifan]

Even though this was my favourite Disney film as a kid, the only reason I still watch it is due to nostalgia. I don't think there's much substance to it, it's mostly just for the kids. That being said, I can definitely see why Marie is now one of the most marketed Disney characters of all time (alongside Dumbo, Pluto, and Patch) and also why the music is so iconic. I also really love the animation on Edgar and the lawyer. It's so detailed - I think it's fantastic. I think you missed out, in the Legacy section, that Marie has become one of the most popular Disney characters of all time, especially in Florida and Japan. But aside from that, great review! I look forward to the retrospective! :)

[@DiegoDiaz-rs4ej]

I like the Aristocats a little bit, but I don't love it. What I do like about The Aristocats is the three kittens. I like how the youngest kitten is a boy, which means the family is not falling into the big-brother-little-sister stereotype. I also like how even when the kittens get into trouble, the Duchess does not act too harsh around them. She tries to make them get a long in a calm and compassionate way. And as much as I love the child actors more, I will have to confess I am impressed at all the adult actors who got to work in this movie; Paul Winchell, Bill Thompson, Thurl Ravenscroft, Phil Harris and Eva Gabor. If I wanted to have a favorite adult voice from this movie, it would actually have to be Scatman Crothers. Why? Because it was he who would voice Jazz in Transformers (Generation 1), one of my sixteen favorite animated television series. My main problem with the Aristocats is there are some story parts that are boring; the dog scenes and the goose scenes especially.

[@TylerRakstis]

Kind of ironic how this and Bambi were originally going to be in live action. but I can see why they would go with 2D since at the time it would've been difficult to make a real animal look like it's talking. At least the technology we have now at least can make that more possible. Thanks to films like Babe.

[@Seánasadventure]

love this movie, a little slow at times and had aged a bit but overall it's a swinging good time. I always appreciated that O' Malley was a rough cat but knew how to treat a lady and was oddly classy the whole movie. He was willing to father 3 kittens because he wanted the girl and was a good man. I feel like he teaches a subtle lesson there that many would benefit from. Overall I'd say the movie is a little rough around the edges but it there for you when you need it.

[@dh1952]

On its own it’s a decent movie, however, after watching 101 Dalmatians, Lady and the Tramp and the Jungle Book, I felt like I’ve seen this before

[@Esmeralda2diamon]

This was one off mine favorite Disney movies growing up.

[@GAZMAN2002]

I love your reviews. Just wondering if you can use more lights when you're in front of the camera

[@gugurupurasudaikirai7620]

So go figure. The 101 Dalmatians movie set in London was huge in France and the Aristocats movie set in Paris was huge in Britain

[@Esgles]

Edgar isn’t supposed to be threatening. In fact, I really pity him. How would you feel if cats came before you? Plus you have been serving your madame faithfully. One step further, he could have easily killed the cats, opting instead to drop them in the countryside.

[@1992disney]

The film, mostly Marie herself, is extremely popular in Japan because you can find a ton of merchandise there. I think it's because of the cuteness of the kittens, the cats of Japan's culture and the fact that it appeals to a lot of Japanese girls, teenage girls, and young women. You can also find some merchandise at Disney Stores in the US, ranging from plush toys to mugs to Tsum Tsums (even though they're mostly Marie-related). To be honest with you though, I find the movie really boring. It's mostly due to the scenes that go on for too long and serve little to no purpose to the plot like you said, Edgar being one of the worst and lamest Disney villains of all time, and the characters don't seem that interesting for me to care about and get attached to. It's even considered to be a rip-off of 101 Dalmatians due to similar plot lines. The only thing I liked about the movie is Marie, because of her sassiness and cuteness. But if you like the movie, good for you. I won't argue with you about it.

[@IconicallyCat]

I think its because of the kittens too especially marie she is sweet sassy and stylish rocking her 2 pink bows

I didn't find a single thing that was racist about the siamese cat. Stereotype =/= racism.

[@Emma-R]

Strange Brew Children don’t either. And they also don’t see a stereotype. I mean, I have never heard a child ask: “Mom, do all Chinese pianoplayers play with chopsticks?” Somebody really has to have no sense of humor at all if he sees that scene as anything other than a joke.

[@AureliusTPK]

Jolly good video. I have always remembered *The Aristocats* as one of the more boring Disney films from my childhood, but hearing your comments on the dynamic of the two lead characters, I am tempted to give it another viewing.

[@CaptainRiterraSmith]

Great review! I guess it is challenging to make a movie stand out and have an impact when the man behind the magic wasn't there to see production through. And to be memorable when Lady & the Tramp and 101 Dalmatians already exist, I applaud the studio for ending up with a result that is still fun to watch.

Much has changed since (expecially with racist stuff) so yeah... Idk But it wasn't really nessecary to the movie so it would have been better if they hadn't made the scene

[@moontainbew5018]

I wish people stop saying older things are racist. It was back way before born or the whole horrible PC and it was back when China etc was in conflict with US like lets say this period they had chinese people insulting us or wanting to kill us or so would you all be like gosh i love the Chinese. No youd be insulting them too. Back then it was normal different era you may see them as racist but they were making jokes. And again different time different era.

[@sigridmflclfmd1662]

Yeah i also wrote a comment saying it was different times like it's 50 years ago many things have changed. But they could still have left it out of the movie and nothing really would have changed but I'm pretty sure the people that made the movie couldn't see into the future and see people would get offended by it 50 years later so i don't blame anyone

[@cliftoncoles6451]

I learned more about "The Aristocats" here than I ever knew. I knew that there was a live-action version planned originally, but I never knew the details, nor of the plot to find homes for the kittens to express their talents. This is not one of my faves, but I happened to watch it lately since I got the bluray for Xmas, so your timing is perfect. Personally, I think the story is lame, the animation sloppy, and Reitherman's directing choices suspect. But that's just me. Keep the vids coming, Joe.

[@cliftoncoles6451]

+Clifton Coles It occurs to me that, if they had followed the plot idea of seeking out homes for the kittens, this movie could have turned out episodic in the same was as "The Sword in the Stone" and "The Jungle Book"--you know, with separate segments strung together by a loose plot device. Consequently, "The Aristocats" has a tighter story than the other Reitherman films (including "Robin Hood").

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

+Clifton Coles That's true, definitely could have gone down that route. It's definitely fun to try and speculate what would have happened to the Aristocats had the original idea been seen through

[@RationalRyan]

11:57 - 12:05 Funny, Disney cut out the black centar scene in Fantasia and outright refuses to release Song of the South on DVD and Blu Ray, and yet that gets a free pass apparently.

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

+Rational Ryan At the end of the day, it's about what creates an outcry. Not that it's right or fair, but for some reason, these sorts of things just don't create the same amount of fervor amongst people as African American stereotyping does

[@arib1ker05]

If I were too go back in time I’d take my kid to see this when it was first released👌

[@gabrielsylvestre3708]

Madame Adelaide Bonfamille (Aristocrats) actually looks like Lady Tremaine (Cinderella). Its Ironic that Madame Adelaide and Lady Tremaine look like a combined character combination to make Cruella De Vil -(Cruel Devil)- One Hundred and One Dalmatians). Both animations (Aristocrats and One Hundred and One Dalmatians are actually parallel to one another. Cats and Dogs. Seeing how One Hundred and One Dalmatians was actually something Walt did want to do, he still found a little swig of distaste in his wine for the one-of-a-kind animation that side-stepped the conventual (and usual) style of his mainstream fantasy animations. At the end of Walt's life he actually forgave the production of One Hundred and One Dalmatians, coming to grips with it actually being a recognized piece of animation. Though it was not at the top of his list.

[@MrGabeanator]

[@Kristy12070]

I never noticed that bit of racism when I was younger, I own this movie so I'm going to watch it again. Though I'm surprised there was no racist alert for lady and the tramp for the Siamese cats. It's not that bad but I think it's about the same level as this in my opinion. How do you feel about it?

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

+Kristy120700 For me at least, where the scenes differ is that I didn't find the Siamese cats to be offensive, necessarily, as opposed to Asian-ish characters. Here, when you have the stereotypical speech (replacing L's with R's), the conical hat, the chopsticks, the Egg Foo Yung lines, it gives a more offensive vibe to me. I don't think it's necessarily malicious, but can certainly be construed as insensitive. And again, that's totally just my opinion on the matter

[@sidney2738]

I love aristocats it's the one film I can watch wit h my parents that they watched and that's not bad

[@TANMAC43]

Gotta admit, I kinda feel this movie is just a bit "meh" for me. I used to watch it as a kid for how cutesy it was, but as I grow older I kind of realized how little substance there was. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoyed the music and voice acting, but that's about it. Nothing really bad about it, I just didn't feel it was a great film. Nothing special, but far from the absolute worst of the Disney animated features catalogue (which I'd have to give to a certain Modern Era film that shouldn't be too hard to guess). Anyways, great review, Joe! I look forward to seeing you tackle the Transitional Era, which has some quite underrated films, in my opinion.

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

+TANMAC43 Yeah, that's really what it comes down to, a good movie for what it was, but could have been so much more. And I'm excited to get going on the Transitional Era, some interesting films in there

[@brendis16851]

[@IdeaBox-dk5vj]

+Joe The Disney Guy Good. I was only joking about how many people think of it to be racist.

[@TheMormonSorceress]

I often wonder what will Walt say about his company now if he was brought back from the dead. His imagination would go nuke the minute he see's how technology has evolved (and probably be sad for how hand drawn is practically dead). Mind blown about how they now own Marval (But what will he say about Star Wars). and he would most likely be amazed by some of the other animated films other company had made Like Spirited Away or Toy Story. One thing I do know is that the minuet he see's Baymax, he will run up and hug him. What do you think he would say or think if he sees his company today?

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

+TheMormonSorceress I think you hit a lot of the big points. For one, his imagination would have literally no bounds, and with his penchant for pushing the envelope of technology, I'm sure he'd find even more ways to advance the medium. I do agree that there would be some lamenting over the lack of hand drawn animation, as we even saw him later in his life lamenting the use of Xerox, but all in all, I'd think he'd be much more proud of the global company that all started with a mouse

[@TheMormonSorceress]

It is amazing how much animation has evolved.

[@MrGabeanator]

I like this film

[@matthewcline2728]

Great review Joe! I'm glad I finally found someone who didn't think it was all too great, but wasn't necessarily a bad one either. Just curious, have you watched say Out Of The Vault or gone to the website 54disneyreviews.wordpress.com? I only ask because the people on in both cases reviewed this film as well and pretty much called it a mediocre copy of both Lady & The Tramp and 101 Dalmatians. I don't know if I would say that's necessarily the case. It may be similar to both, yes, but Disney may go somewhat new with this one. I would probably give this one maybe a B-, maybe a B or something like that. As far as the potential sequel or TV series goes, I would rather they had come up with that idea around say 2002 or 2003 than wait until around 2005 for that to be the case. I only say that since, well, I guess after John Lasseter took over the studio in early 2006, he decided that no sequel to Disney Animated Features should be made by Disney Toon studios ever again. I would say that I agree and disagree with his decision at the same time. Allow me to explain. I agree because many of those direct-to-video sequels weren't all that good and I disagree because I would have been curious as to what the sequel and series for this would have been like. Oh well! I guess now, we'll never know. Anyway, great review once again!

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

[@disneydork57]

I never minded Uncle Waldo, but man any scene with those two dogs just drags on forever! My biggest problem with this movie is the villain. His motivation is week and every decision he makes in the film is just dumb. I mean stop and think about it. He thinks he won't out live the cats to inherit the money? Which is bull. They're cats! All he has to do is just spend the money anyway he wants and then claim it's for the cats, duh! Plus the going back for the hat and other stuff was pointless. And then he tries to ship them off to Timbuktu. Like the people working at the post office are going to here them cry and meow and find them! Ugh, I just want to scream at Edgar every time he shows up on screen, cause he is such a moron. However all the good stuff you stated saves the film for me. Plus it is to date the only Disney animated film to have a single mother be the main protagonist. Which is really cool.

[@JoeTheDisneyGuy]

+disneydork57 Definitely, the dogs scene is another example of those "funny, but not really going anywhere" scenes. And yeah, Edgar is a pretty lame villain, in just about every way.

[@disneydork57]

Joe The Disney Guy you, know every one does those top 10 Disney villain things but for once I'd kind of like to see a top worst or lamest villains list, just to see if you could even get 10 on there.

[@MissFlow]

Great review, just started this disney series of yers and so far it's wildly entertaining. However, I don't think the siamese cat is racist at all and if people think it is...that's fine. But keep in mind what racism actually means: making a négative comparisment between races in which one is portrayed inferior. I'm highly questioning that's happening here with the siamese. Yes, it's kind of a stereotype but maybe people can be a bit too easily offended by the most minor things. Now of course much can disagree with me, I am véry against any form of racism and I mean by no means any offence with this comment to anyone:). But I really think there are worse things out there than this lovable siamese cat, now? And: selfhumor is a charming characteristic, dears.

[@gerawallstar3487]

The Aristocats honestly feels like a watered down version of 101 Dalmatians. Theres honestly no charm to it, good writing or good characters. At least the song "everybody wants to be a cat" is memorable.

[@sigridmflclfmd1662]

I like both and think the characters in the Aristocats really makes the movie better

[@Ahturos]

I still love the movie but I can see that it is one of the lowest in terms of epic storytelling. It´s mostly really simple but fun. I mean I die of laughter during Edgar running from the dogs scenes. Funny how plenty of the voices from Jungle Book returned in Aristocats. Similar in Sweden, our Kaa also voiced the little mouse and our King Louie did Scatcat. Dutchess voice funny enough went to become Bianca in the Rescurers and O´Mally went and did the voice for Sebastian in the Little Mermaid. It´s also funny about the siamees cat. A lot of people seems to just think he is funny then a racist stereotype. And do you know about the Marie merchandise? I did´t but I went to Brasil a couple of yers ago and suddenly they had millions of Marie merchandise. It´s like wow where did this come from?!

[@trevormcclanahan7278]

Louie Prima did not voice ScatCat Scatman Crothers did

+Straight White Cis Male Oppressive Shitlord I personally don't mind a bad pun if the perpetrator doesn't expect me to laugh :)

Stereotypes are usually 100% true and get rid of it and not showing it is not going to fix it just accept the fact that we want to have fun if we are afraid of stereotypes you are a boring individual PS I like your videos but please stop bringing up the whole racist argument because it's boring

The Aristocrats and Sword in the Stone are probably the two weakest if the Disney 'classic' animated features. Both were underwritten and had almost non existent villains. Edger the Butler was especially weak.

[@sigridmflclfmd1662]

He was also more supposed to be a comic relief than a "great villain"
