I was one of the animators that worked on this film. We were so excited for it to come out... it was looking so good! The animation was done by Turner Feature animation. During the creation of this film, Warner Bros. bought out Turner Networks and suddenly had this film land in their lap. WB totally dropped the ball concerning the marketing of this film. They did virtually nothing so no one knew about it, let alone had any desire to go see it. They did have a promotional tie-in with Subway and a few cheap happy meal type toys were made for it. But they just let it die. It was devastating When we went to the cast and crew screening, the first thing that came up was the WB logo, as if it had anything to do with the creation of the film. It was a slap in our faces especially after how poorly they marketed it. And THAT is the reason if bombed at the box office... no one knew about it. It was never given a fair chance to sink or swim on it's own merits.

I actually had to check the IMDb page for the film to verify your claims as one of the animators (sorry, nothing personal--the internet has made me skeptical and kind of paranoid to where I need to verify these things), and I did find your page...holy shit, you worked on The Road to El Dorado, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmaron, Quest for Camelot, AND The Iron Giant, too?!

It’s funny cos this movie was a part of my childhood despite me never watching it as a kid. The preview for it was on my Space Jam VHS and I watched that tape to DEATH. I remember always watching the preview for this movie and wanting to watch it (despite kid me being terrified of Max lol) so when I finally watched it at 23 years old, I IMMEDIATELY fell in love with it

I've always found the parts where Darla tries to keep her Shirley Temple-ish "sugary sweet little darling" act up really funny, especially the one where Danny takes too long to respond and she looks ready to explode before he finally spits it out then she goes right back to restrained fake smiles again. Max of course despite being played as all brutish and scary i still laugh, especially that booming voice and the thing where only his mouth moves while no other parts of his body does. That one part where he's dancing along to the animal's singing before Darla catches him in the act is so funny as well. What a hilarious and criminally underrated movie. Other tidbits: Frances was played by actress Betty Lou Gerson, who was the original voice of Cruella De Vil in 101 Dalmatians and this was one of her last roles before her death about two years later. Tilly was Kathy Najimy, the one and only voice of Peggy Hill on King of the Hill and witch Mary Sanderson in Hocus Pocus. Sawyer's voice was done by Jasmine Guy, who played Whitley on Cosby Show spinoff "A Different World" and rose to the primary character following Lisa Bonet's abrupt departure from the series after the first season. Mark Dindal, the director of this film and Max's voice later joined with Disney a while after and took over production/reworked what soon became "The Emperor's New Groove" after it's early stages in development as "Kingdom of the Sun" under Roger Allers went south and was on the verge of being wholesale scrapped.

I love this movie. Darla is freaking hilarious and so is Max. The pacing, comedy and animation are really lovely. I'm surprised NC didn't mention this film was one of Gene Kelly's last projects before he passed. He choreographed the animated dance numbers (which were one of the best features of the film, although there were only a few). Having one of the most classic actors of all time involved in a 1930s tribute film, which isn't widely known or celebrated, kind of a shame. But it makes this movie all the more special to me!

I love characters like Darla, it seems she invented the Shirley Temple persona as a villain concept because there’s also characters like Gertrude from I Hate Fairyland and Cozy Glow from Friendship is Magic that I really like. Also I watched Cats Dont Dance as a young child and just like with Watership Down, it was at such a young age that I only remember a bit so I’ll definitely have to watch this movie again (rewatched Watership Down a while ago too)

Sawyer isn't doing a Natalie Cole impression, Natalie Cole actually does the singing voice for Sawyer. Loved the vid as per usual!

Max appears to have incredible hearing as he can hear Darla calling him from miles away. We see this in the beginning when she violently calls his name from inside the movie set as he comes crashing through the wall. We also see this at the end when Darla, after being exposed and falling down the trap door, calls his name and Max, being stranded in Paris, France , can apparently hear her from Hollywood as he responds with “Qui, Miss Dimple?”

Only thanks to this comment do I remember what it was actually called-- but I'm probably still only going to remember it as "Gay Old Pussy."

This is a fantastic movie that was unfairly squashed out of the theaters by both Disney and Warner Bros, even though Warners distributed it. It got almost no advertising and ran for a week where I lived. I am so glad to have caught it then. Beautiful full animation, fun music and terrific characters. Max on the big screen is amazing.

People watch shows and websites from all other the world and if many are rendered unable to operate it's not just the American's they'll piss off. I'm already pissed off by how much congress feel they can control a system that is in essence international. Also they massively underestimate just how smart people are. If this law passes I give it 6 minutes until someone has found a work around and made it freely available online. You want the entire internet to do dark this poorly conceived mess of a decision is how you do it. The reason they are doing it is also transparent as anything. Companies are loosing money to independent producers so instead of embracing the competition and bettering themselves they'd rather just lobby the government to shut down opposition. It's pathetic.

We're glad that it's found a good place in your hearts to live. All the best to ya!

Because many adults frown upon 2-D animated films now whereas 3-D tends to get more grownups to watch it. Not only because 2-D films are more expensive, time-consuming, etc. but if you're making something, then you want as many people to see (and presumably enjoy) it as possible. If a noteworthy portion of your viewership would rather watch the film when it's 3-D animated, then that's another reason not to go 2-D. I love 2-D animated flicks a ton, but Princess and the Frog showed they're not as popular as 3-D films now and I don't blame animation studios for not wanting to get walked all over. Dragon's Lair will probably be good though since Don Bluth is doing it *(crosses fingers)*

The first and only time that I ever saw this movie was in one of those portable dvd-players that you hook to the back of a car seat; I was on a long drive home while riding in a car with a friend of mine, who owned the movie. I enjoyed the movie greatly, and to this day I still haven’t forgotten about it.

that Darla Dimple is a BIGGER Brat then Angelica from RugRats

8:43 Natalie Cole was Sawyer's singing voice

This movie was dedicated to the iconic actor/dancer Gene Kelly (best known as one of the three leads in Singin' in the Rain alongside Donald O' Connor, and Debbie Reynolds). He was the uncredited choreographer consultant for the film, shortly before his death in 1996, making this movie Kelly's final film project.

This was one of my favorite movies as a kid. I still listen to the soundtrack to this day.

wait...did he say Sawyer was doing her "Best Natalie Cole Impression?" ....does he not know Sawyer IS NATALIE COLE?? That actually is her.

I have some fond memories of this one. That butler really is one of the greatest things ever created in animation.

Anyone else thinks that Darla's faces remind them of the Mask?

*+No Regerts* and *Kaija Schmauss* Fun fact: Spongebob creator Stephen Hillenburg originally never wanted to do a film even after over a year of Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon's requests, following the show's success. This is both because: A) Intimidation from at-the-time increasingly popular animation gems like Toy Story or The Iron Giant. And B) He was skeptical that the show's formula could work in a feature-length format. Quoted: *"I didn't think that what we wanted to say needed to be in a movie. I like the short form for animation. Then this story idea came up that lent itself to a longer format. You can't do a road trip adventure in a short form."* Once the script developed a "hero's quest" premise to better justify the run-time and open up new creative doors with the characters on land, Hillenburg accepted. As most know by now, he intended it to end the series: *"There was concern when we did the movie that the show had peaked, among executives at Nickelodeon."* Thus, he resigned as showrunner & head-writer but returned as Executive Producer & creative consultant for the 2nd film. This was mostly in memory of his mentor Jules Engel though, not desire to continue the series. He's remained Exec. Producer since '08, still reviewing new episodes & suggestions, but is otherwise retired from the franchise. For fans who've lost love for the series, Hillenburg would support that the first film can be considered the true final episode. All post- '04 material would simply take place before its events, which is why they are never mentioned. 🍍 *#OceanMan* 🌊

Deathly Donger I don't think you know what Net Neutrality is... Net Neutrality is just limiting ISPs from favoring some websites or content over others... Nothing related to the government censoring or controlling anything or preventing content from getting the data they need. Net Neutrality has been going on since the beginning of the internet and is what is protecting small start up companies from being taken out because they couldn't pay to get good speeds. Taking away Net neutrality hurts the consumer and companies who aren't associated with cable companies since they are at risk of having to pay extra to do things they already are doing.

I still like this movie cause it reminds my Mom about a cat that she used to have. Mom would see Pumpkin as the protagonist in the film. His name was Pumpkin, he was a very good cat. He loved watching the news on television, he would sleep with us on the bed, and sometimes stand like a statue on top of the couch arm resters. He even sticked his tongue out just a little bit and it was so adorable 🥰. He died when we were getting ready for church ⛪️ and when we saw him laying in our room we didn’t go cause we had to remorse for our beloved cat. We even have him in a box containing his ashes so that he’ll always be with us. We all miss him.
