The Rescuers - Medusa and Snoops

Taken from "The Rescuers" 1992 VHS (Canadian Copy).

Penny is so adorable! Always broke my heart to see her crying on the deck of the riverboat later in the film. Poor kid 😢

[@cellytron]

I love Mr. Snoops, he’s just such a regular guy who absolutely is not cut out to be a villain. Not in the sense that he’s too good a person, but that he’s lazy and completely unambitious. He’s just like some generic middle management office worker guy who somehow ended up working for this crazy criminal lady. I love how whiny and petty he is. “I wish you wouldn’t do that!”

[@RegularInvader]

I always liked the sound of their voices echoing at 2:11. And Bianca's line "she's insane, utterly mad," is still my favorite.😆

[@Perich29]

[@GreyWolfLeaderTW]

A cool interesting detail about Medusa and Snoops in this film is that nearly all of their animation was done by one man, Milt Kahl, who is a legend among animators. There is so much beautiful movement detail in how characters that Kahl animated look, particularly with a trademark action he animates his characters doing, the Kahl Head Shake/Waggle. Medusa herself does it while pining over having to get the Devil's Eye. Kahl said that Medusa's mannerism, movements, physical design, and style were directly inspired by his ex-wife.

[@TheChoujinVirus]

I wonder if Don Bluth took inspiration from Milt Kahl when he designed the characters?

[@AH-is5yg]

With the extra small diamonds, jewels, and other treasures down at the cave, they would have made extra money. Medusa wasn't very bright and she was insane.

[@grantcole1898]

All she cared about was the Devil’s Eye. The small jewels meant nothing to her.

[@AH-is5yg]

@@grantcole1898 Yeah, she was insane. She wasn't that greedy. WIth the Devil's Eye and the small jewels, it would be a lot of money. Snoops would have taken the small jewels for the money.

[@kryptonianpowers]

I guess the Devil's Eye was some sort of Holy Grail-type of MacGuffin treasure that treasure hunters would fight tooth and claw for.

[@AH-is5yg]

@@kryptonianpowers and also lose your mind for it.

[@EnemyAce88]

She could have sold the smaller jewels and bought some mining equipment to dig for the Devil's Eye. Then she wouldn't need Penny.

[@kryptonianpowers]

I bet you Penny making a fuss about her teddy bear getting wet was an excuse for her to refuse to go down into the cave to get the Devil's Eye because she literally carries that bear of hers everywhere she goes.

Those smaller jewels really would be worth a decent fortune. Medusa could sell them and get Penny diving equipment and mining tools or even hire a professional spelunking team.

[@ARedMagicMarker]

She really can't have just anyone and lots of people knowing about that diamond, and I can see why. The more people you add on your team, especially adults who overall know better, and have gained a taste for funds and know just what the treasure is worth to up their own net worth, the greater chance you have of losing something or being betrayed.

It's amusing to consider how Medusa has the right idea but goes the wrong way with it. "Force them to like you"...well, it's just amusing really. Because in theory if she used all those smaller gems she doesn't want to buy luxuries for the child, she'd end up with a more co-operative child.

Diamonds are considered to be the most valuable gems in the world. The Hope Diamond is currently at #3 being the most expensive with the Kohinoor Diamond being the #1 most expensive. The Devil's Eye might be some type of Philosopher's Stone, all without the power of turning every single metal into gold and creating the Elixir of Life.
