Nostalgia Critic Real Thoughts On: The Tom and Jerry Movie

[@spongbros]

“How come we never talked before?” “Because we had better writers.” Sums it up.

[@bowmaj8666]

I developed a lot of respect for Tom's voice actor, Richard Kind, when I discovered that he also voiced Bing Bong in Inside Out! "Who's your friend who likes to play?"

[@noahkarpinski1824]

Bing Bong! Bing Bong!

[@KeybladeMasterAndy]

He was also in A Bugs Life. And he's done a lot of good TV work.

[@sarahmcmann5253]

Bowmaj 86 yeah I love Bing Bong

[@jeremycrockett2692]

I was also surprised about that also! It's quite a stretch, huh?

[@FaceUnreality]

Rob's idea that Tom and Jerry fight while another story is happening in the background because they accidently got caught up in it, sounds hilarious.

[@Smashbrosrule21]

A lot of the other Tom and Jerry movie specials are like that. Only they use some supernatural elements.

[@Pssybart]

FaceUnreality It's a pretty similiar premise to Beavis & Butthead do America. In that film they cause a chain of events that result in them becoming the country's most wanted terrorists. Yet, they remain the same and seem completely oblivious of the plot.

[@Igorcastrochucre]

FaceUnreality He perfectly described the plot of that Mars movie, the Fast and Furryous one, the one with pirates and a lot of others, that means the Walker brothers have a lot of catching up to do with the series lately.

[@TechnologicallyTechnical]

FaceUnreality They just start wondering into Looney Toons, Road Runner, Toy Story, Spongebob, etc.

[@SirBlackReeds]

Igorcastrochucre I too question if they've seen more than one Tom & Jerry movie.

[@LordoftheJimmy]

Christopher Walken as Tom and John Leguizamo as Jerrry? Now THAT I would watch!!!

[@joyunicycle]

LordoftheJimmy Hate to admit it, but I actually agree. Now I'd like to know how he'd sound as Tom :D

[@SamuelG2000]

@LLT TV You're damn right

[@supermariofan03]

Yes to John Leguizamo, but I think James Woods would have been Tom. He has that cocky, smartass and sarcastic tone in his voice that would have worked to Tom's advantage.

[@hulkfan97]

Christopher Walken as Tom Danny Devito as Jerry

[@orangeslash1667]

@@hulkfan97 The problem wasn't even the acting, its the story was generic and dull.

[@Igorcastrochucre]

The way Rob described the ideal Tom & Jerry movie, some of them actually happened: in the one about Mars, they fight and chase, somehow get into a rocket, fight into the spaceship, fight in Mars, get stuck, meet aliens, nearly obliterate human race, decide to work together (Tom as the pain magnet by the way), save everything and Tom doesn't end well, everything happened and was saved because of them. The thing I like about this movie is how after they sing they'll be friends, dog leaves, they don't stop harassing each other, in other words: friendship song = pointless until Jerry saves Tom. Then Robin enters the picture and they decide to put their differences aside for time, because of her, at the end now that she's happy, they decide to go back to what they're good at, no talking only slapstick, and it was fine the way both cat and mouse could show emotions other than joy at hurting each other, like Tom's genuine concern of getting Jerry to safety (twice!), Jerry using his size to help in the great chase, eavesdropping the step-mother and fighting the dog. Other than that... the movie didn't get T&J's over-the-top spirit, the songs were horrible and the gimmicky characters weren't that fun to watch outside of the great chase in the river.

[@PrincessAshley972]

You guys should totally do Real Thoughts on A Troll In Central Park. To this day, it remains one of my favorite NC reviews of all time

[@PrincessAshley972]

***** eh id prefer A Troll In Central Park

[@RyanStorey1231]

Undertaker9711 Or any of the Don Bluth films the NC reviewed. I simply love hearing people talk about Don Bluth, even his sub-par movies. I wonder what Doug and Rob think of "Titan A.E"?

[@ThePunkrocker37]

***** i dunno i think doug made it pretty clear what he thinks about that movie in his top 11 most hated movies

[@Tenebyss]

***** Doug does not like titan a.e. I think rob has called it a guilty pleasure.

[@TechnologicallyTechnical]

Undertaker9711 I actually almost stopped watching that review mid-way through because the movie pissed me off and annoyed me so damn much.

[@Dalia1784]

To clear it up for Rob, Tom and Jerry the Movie was made and released by Turner Feature Animation and released on home video the following year by F.H.E (Family Home Entertainment, the company that originally released Teenage Mutant Turtles) but then finally in the late 90's was released by Warner Bros. for later home video releases. How I knew all that is very simple, I'm a home video geek!

[@47Cartoonguy]

Well it was actually made by Film Roman

[@dancepiglover]

Their idea for a Tom and Jerry movie "plot" sounds a lot like Family Guy's chicken fight.

[@andrewkful]

Regardless as to whether or not Rob cares to know, the director was Phil Roman. His studio Film Roman did animation for The Simpsons, Family Guy, Garfield and Friends, and more. This was and remains to be his only theatrical director credit.

[@maxtheaxeiswax]

I've been playing the first Fallout recently and Tony Jay voices a mutant. He sounds amazing.

[@linkspanda]

Holy crap.... Rob's Walken is top notch. I broke out laughing XD

[@sperrin]

It was terrible, he sounded more like Fozzie Bear.

[@ZNKChannel]

So why didn't it work for Tom and Jerry?

[@supermariof0521]

1) It was the 90's, when Disney was the only ones giving a shit. 2) Shaun The Sheep The Movie was awsome, but fuck America for ignoring it!

[@SteveCarras]

Very early (1955-56) and some later (1967) Gumby's (Of Clay and Critters, Foxy Box,etc.) Pink Panther.

[@SteveCarras]

Well, I saw and enjoyed it.

[@Jimenopolix]

I actually like the songs in this movie. This whole movie in general is a guilty pleasure of mine. -- Is it horrible to say that this film was a wish come true to me back then when they actually had them talk? I think I saw a few Tom and Jerry cartoons before this film and kinda wondered how they would talk. This film kinda brought my wish to life. . . . Years later, I found out how much more artsy it would be if they didn't talk.

[@mod4it87]

JIMENOPOLIX they spoke many times in the classics, especially Tom.

[@OdieZombie]

I would like to see real thoughts on 'North'. It is one of my favourite reviews from NC and I find it interesting how a movie like this was made from an acclaimed director and a whole cast of Top Talent.

[@MichaelSar12IsBack]

I wonder if any of the voice actors involved in this even remember being in this movie.

[@RVDinator]

I would actually like to see their honest thoughts on "We're Back: A Dinosaur Story". Not only because it's one of my favorite reviews (as well as the one that introduced me to the man known as Hunter S. Thompson) but also with the Raoul Puke gimmick (though brilliant), the true thoughts may have come off as a little confused, not sure if there was a positive feeling to the movie or not. Either way, would be cool to see.

[@Pinkstarclan]

As a little kid who really wanted to hear Tom and Jerry's voice and was happy to hear them speak, even /I/ got annoyed by their talking after the initial introductions

[@jodgee2374]

"Cat in the Hat.. I broke down and cried and strangled you." Just like one of my Japanese animes! Like, exactly one. You know the one.

[@heroshadow42]

This will sound odd, but while I barely remember the song itself, or the lyrics rather, I remember that there is one song you excluded from the review, which is Robin's song after Tom and Jerry were sent to the pound. It's mostly just the "feel sorry for this character" song.

[@JohnPannozzi]

Turner bought the pre-1986 MGM library, including the rights to the Tome & Jerry characters, in 1992 they made the movie which was distributed by Miramax, and during 1995-1997 Turner was bought by Time Warner, hence Warner Bros. distributes Tom & Jerry today.

[@dalebrush5366]

I love the idea of just going all out, Fury Road-ing it and having 90 minutes of escalation. Just Tom and Jerry kicking each others' asses all over the city, no dialogue, and Jerry unleashes Spike in the third act. In fact, fuck it. George Miller's done some great kids' films, get him to direct.

[@Pssybart]

Henri Mancini had a long lasting collaboration with Blake Edwards, who directed The Great Race. Aside from that and The Pink Pather they also collaborated on projects like Peter Gunn, Breakfast at Tiffany's and The Party. He also composed Baby Elephant Walk. So yeah, Mancini is a legendary film composer... But that doesn't mean all his movies were great.

[@electricmastro]

8:22 They did fight in this movie and have talked in shorts before. I know it's probably the length, but still.

[@yokab]

I want Christopher Walken as Tom and I want it done now!

[@SamuelG2000]

I can just imagine him as Tom saying, "I gotta have more mice!"

[@randalgraves6979]

David Morrissey as Jerry 🧐

[@MagusMirificus]

You guys should do We're Back next.

[@seanbridges3075]

Fact: "Tom's" voice actor in this movie was Bing Bong in Inside Out!

[@freddiefaulig8751]

He is still alive?

[@BlythePennyBicycle21]

Richard Kind, who voiced Tom in this movie, is currently in his early 60s.

[@cybertronixproductions1056]

[@randalgraves6979]

He was on Spin City.

[@JAMOVATN]

I really loved this movie as a kid. But now....

[@jooglebob]

***** I'm sad to say that I own this movie. I thought it was OK as a kid. But UGH... it's soooo awful.

[@jooglebob]

***** They never actually died in the movie. However, the movie was so bad that Tom and Jerry died in a metaphorical way.

[@evrahades661]

I think Rob and Doug should dub over all of Tom's dialogue from the movie as Christopher Walken.

[@PIXPromosMore]

To answer the question about Who Animated it, it was "Film Roman". To answer who produced/distributed it, *TECHNICALLY*, As of today, it's Warner Brothers, but when the movie was first released in 1992, it was released by Turner Pictures. Ted Turner owned the Rights to Hanna-Barberra & MGM's Library (Including Tom & Jerry) for many years before Warner Acquired Turner's company in the mid-90s. So yes, the man responsible for Captain Planet is Also the man Responsible for the Tom & Jerry Movie (It helps to read his autobiography).

[@electricmastro]

9:05 Well, there are episodes such as The Truce Hurts and Tot Watchers were they don't really fight for the majority of the story.

[@spinlok3943]

We've got to have... moneeeyyyy....

[@scitechian]

The scene from near the start of this movie with the industrial wrecker demolishing that house got me afraid of wrecking balls for years.

[@summerjonz]

It always made me too sad and hate wrecking balls for years.

[@TED_Frames]

I quite liked this movie when I was very young, but as I got older, I began appreciating Tom and Jerry more and more, which lead me to sneering at the movie more and more.

[@josephmarrison4606]

Same here man, the songs and Tony Jay are the only things I like now.

[@V4Now]

You know what's sad about the music in this movie? If they had kept to the Jazz routes the original series and Mancini is known for, I bet it would have been better. :/

[@freddiefaulig8751]

We got to have money

[@TheBlackDemon1996]

Tom and Jerry did talk in the original... watch "the lonesome mouse."

[@DoubleATam]

As a kid, even though I ate this up and couldn't consciously say "this isn't Tom & Jerry", I think I subconsciously identified it as a parallel universe. It's like the early Sonic Archie Comics of Tom & Jerry: nothing from the source material was well-translated onto the other medium, and they made the rest up.

[@fleakletheotter]

Can I join in? ...We've got to have....MONEEEEEEY!

[@Flamestar320]

The Producers of the movie:We've got to have... money!

[@InYourFaceNewYorker]

The colors were way too saturated... the animation was... OK... but there wasn't a lot of force in the animation. Not enough weight. Seemed kind of soft, if that makes sense. Like the timing and spacing in some of the gags just made the characters seem weightless and too soft.

[@absurdious]

you know, I think I remember Tom and Jerry "talking" in the Italian version of the show... it wasn't really talking, you could only hear what they were thinking: there was an episode where Jerry was tired of Tom bullying him, so he wrote a letter to his super strong cousin... and since Italian children in general can't understand a word in English (you could read the text of the letter) an actor voiced over Jerry thinking what he was writing to his cousin...

[@BlackINKim]

absurdious I think it's an European thing, I definitely remember the same thing in the French version of that very episode

[@absurdious]

yeah, but I think it's something that happens in those countries where people don't understand english... I don't think they would do it in the UK :-)

[@prnightsteel]

Your idea of a better Tom & Jerry movie reminds me of "Mr. Bean's Holiday." I think that was better than the first Bean movie, at least.

[@mc.gemstone]

I remember watching this movie on TV when I was really young and I just love it them having voice's which amazed my mind at a young age it didn't really bother me because I was just a young kid at the time I was like 3 or 4 when I saw it!

[@crashschwarzen4642]

"Jerry...don' believe me" Best Christoffer Walken impression

[@MartialKaiju98]

Sad to say I still have the VHS that bares the name.

[@ColorTheoryEB]

I can't completely hate this movie, because just like Space Jam, this was my first introduction to Tom and Jerry. I bet you feel sorry for me now, that's fine, a couple of people did when I said that. It was definitely confusing seeing Tom and Jerry talk in this movie, and watch the shorts later, and they can't talk in those for some reason. Mostly because I didn't have the sense of time, and things happen in the order I perceive them.

[@morganguest1343]

Let's be real, if this movie was remade today, that dog & flea (the ones responsible for the whole movie) would be voiced by Chris Pratt & Awkwafina (or would just be written out. They're that forgettable), alongside Tom Holland or Ben Schwartz for Jerry & Seth Rogen or John Mulaney for Tom. I do agree with Doug & Rob. Their voices (Except maybe Tom's) do not match the duo, this kind of goes back to how Dan Akroyd's Yogi did not match while Justin Timberlake's Boo Boo is spot on. The voice Jerry had in the movie fits Nibbles more, TBH. I noticed a little detail in the movie, the minute Tom first started talking, Jerry looked at him like "Ah, shit, we're doing this now?🤣" Overall, the movie's a guilt pleasure of mine, but they should have just went with the friendship plot instead of just all over the place.

[@ThePunkrocker37]

i actually liked the idea of them talking i was like "holy shit they CAN talk!" but i didn't like how the movie lost focus. also, do real thoughts on good burger or bio-dome next. i wanna know you're thoughts on these kind of "stoner-comedies."

[@xavierhughes5522]

I'm remembering a ton of DVD Tom and Jerry specials now... Anyone remember when they went to mars? Or when they essentially had a Tom and Jerry version of Wacky Races?

[@xavierhughes5522]

Oh... well then... good for us.

[@yszman6478]

They talked, but the only human that seemed to understand them was the little girl, all the other human characters seemingly couldn't understand them, so it makes talk even more pointless. When they do talk in the old cartoons, everyone could understand which is why they rarely talked.

[@mrswb]

that was a spot on christopher walken impression

[@theAngryscotman]

You know what feels weirder though? Having Tom and Jerry mute while every other character can talk. Seriously, watch those straight to DVD films that have been made in the last few years. It feels seriously uncomfortable.

[@theAngryscotman]

***** I know. I mean what are we to assume from that? How did they become mute? Were they born deaf? Did someone remove their tongues? Damage to their throats? It's just odd.

[@Jawf94]

I.....uh.....I was literally listening to that song when you guys sang "Paranoia paranoia everyone's coming to get me."

[@zachjones5251]

You guys should give "Tom and Jerry and the Magic Ring" a try. It was a strictly Tom and Jerry movie, they don't talk except for little noises and it's a fun ride. Not a masterpiece but it was a decent effort to give them their own kind of story before they started doing this odd pairings movies

[@satoshikatsumoto9007]

Eh, I think it's a....."unique" interpetation of Tom & Jerry but it's nowhere near great just....bad but the Batman & Robin bad, meaning you can laugh at it.

[@fuckTrump-v7j]

Yes, Henry Mancini did the music in The great race. He did the music in all of Blake Edwards movies.

[@fasulia67]

That Walken impression though...

[@yszman6478]

They have talked or at least Tom has talked a few old cartoons, I remember one when some women in Spain hired him to catch Jerry the pied piper mouse.

[@wjzav1971]

I just looked it up. Mancini did the music in The Great Race. A wonderful movie by the way. Knew it since childhood. Glad that Doug and Rob know and like it too. They should do a Disneycember-like review of it.

[@candytaxi]

as a young woman, i look back at these cartoons and see the horrible reboots of them and just sit there looking back at the original material, thinking "how could something that good turn into such shit like this?" thats why when i get out of college my main goal is to attempt to get the rights to tom and jerry or any other cartoon thats had horrible reboots over the years and do one right. i mean, i've grown up with old cartoons such as those, i have ideas for them and i just really want to try and open an outlet for cartoons like those to shine again. i understand the rules and everything and i am completely capable of doing one right. i know, the chances of me actually doing this is a 0.00001%, but i'm gonna do everything in my power to actually try. i just don't think these cartoons deserve to become horrible reboots just for money.

[@AJARyan-yn2uv]

Yep. I once watched the segment where Tom and his rival play tennis and couldn't stop laughing throughout the whole thing.

[@spank9898]

[@jasoncolny]

I think, and it would make sense, that Tom and Jerry: The Fast and the Furry, is honestly one of the few that do right to NOT break both two rules. The problem... it came years after the original movie. WELL... Great timing! My thoughts of THE Tom and Jerry Movie: DON'T SPEAK, DON'T MAKE THEM FRIENDS THROUGH THE END, make a okay plot that follows the mass destruction between cat and mouse, morals, a theme, a happy ending, and then both Tom and Jerry continue fighting even through the credits.

[@seanmyster6]

Jason Cruz I like The Fast And The Furry quite a bit. It's not amazing or anything, but it's funny and it seems appropriate for Tom and Jerry to be in it.

[@geowiz9436]

Jason Cruz I love practically all of the Tom and Jerry movies; Shiver Me Whiskers, The Magic Ring, and The Fast and Furriest, etc. (Shiver Me Whiskers is my personal favorite). But, trust me when I say that I NEVER liked this movie.Those other movies still managed to capture the original by having enough slapstick humor and creative ideas because they made other characters talk. They were very clever with their storylines. This movie...............not so much.

[@SirBlackReeds]

Jason Cruz Here are the two things, 1. Tom & Jerry talk at various times throughout the shorts. 2. Tom & Jerry have always had an odd friendship with each other.

[@SirBlackReeds]

Geo Wiz seanmyster6 Every Tom & Jerry movie is average at best and are just entries into the franchise.

[@jedh3721]

So after the first time I saw this video, I went out and watched The Great Race, and wow. Yeah, that is a phenomena movie. I loved it!

Tom and Jerry was the first NC review I saw. Was actually looking for the Droopy cameo from the film ("hello all you happy people") and I ended watching a bunch of NC reviews cause that one was pretty fun. If you guys take requests, I'd be into a Real Thoughts video on The Thief and the Cobbler. The review is pretty fun (with another "mindf**k" chase), and I'm curious as to whether Doug finds the Thief's inner monologue that annoying. I got to see some excerpts and he has some really funny stuff going on.

[@AnimationNation2004]

Henry Mancini did the film score and the music for the songs. Leslie Bricusse wrote the lyrics so if there’s anyone to blame it’s him. I respect him I mean he did Willy Wonka and a ton of other classic films. Also to answer the question on the animation, it was done by Film Roman the same studio that animated The Simpsons after Klasky Csupo. Also fun fact. Technically this could be considered a Disney movie. The reason is because this was the second film distributed by Miramax after being bought by Disney.

[@tristankennedy9673]

They cut off my legs, now im an amputee god damn you!!

[@rs52594]

The film was produced by Turner Entertainment Company, Warner Music Group and Film Roman. It was distributed in theaters by Miramax and originally released on video through FHE (Family Home Entertainment) and Warner Bros didn't get rights to it until 2002 when they released it on DVD.

Gunpoint: Humm one song from the Tom and Jerry movie. Me: Umm… PARANOIA PARANOIA EVERYBODY’S COMING TO GET ME…!

[@rjkmusicmedia]

In the original cartoon of Tom and Jerry sometimes, briefly they don't fight for comedic effect when they realise they should be; breakng rule 1. And there are rare occurances when they talk in funny voices.. breaking rule 2. I think these exceptions could drive a film more-so than the ones we've seen. Maybe adding their voice-overs from the films and keeping them in their heads/imaginations would help convey some reflection on what happens during the film..

[@rjkmusicmedia]

adarkimpurity my orignal thought i forgot to write was about how they team up against a greater foe in some episodes; breaking rule 1, again temporarily.

[@PetProjects2011]

"You and I can never be friends." Well, you're brothers, so...

[@zakfett92]

To be fair, in most of the newer movies, even though they're on the same side and work together to help a protagonist, they do still fight.

[@matheusmariani3108]

Trying to improve the story: after being caught in the streets, and fighting a alley cat gang (without a song number, might I add), they are caught by the Mexican wrestler dog catchers, and thrown in Dr. Applecheek's lair, where more chasing and slapstick occurs. Jerry escapes easily and wanders on the streets while Tom stays locked. In a while after some shenanigans, Jerry starts missing Tom and goes back to free him, convincing the alley cat gang to help in exchange of giving himself to them afterwards. Meanwhile, Tom meets Droopy and Butch (the cat). Jerry returns and help everyone to leave their cages. The alley cat gang decides it's time to pay, but Jerry crossed his fingers, so he owes nothing. The alley cat gang is not happy and decides to take Jerry by force. But Tom steps in and, with the help of Butch, defeat the alley cat gang, with all the other animals defeating Dr. Applecheeks. Everyone is free, Tom and Jerry quickly thank it each other.... before returning to their old slapstick life.

I wonder if they'll do a real thoughts on Thomas and the Magic Railroad.

Is it just me or does Doug start turning into Gilbert Gotfried when he sings Friends to the End?

The “song” they are referring to is Harvey danger’s flagpole sitta.

Apparently, Hanna Barbera are jumping on the Cinematic Universe bandwagon starting with a Scooby-Doo movie. It's inevitable that Tom and Jerry will be in this mutual continuity as well, but if I was working on it, I wouldn't give them their own movie. I would do something similar to the MCU where T&J make a cameo in someone else's film similarly to Howard the Duck in Guardians of the Galaxy. They're doing their own thing, a la Scrat in Ice Age. It would be hilarious if it was later revealed that their antics caused everything bad to happen in the different movies.

You know if Tom had talked in the movie as much as he did in the cartoons, that Christopher Walken voice would've been fitting, along with a couple of other actors.
