SUPER SUBVERSIVE

That's the shit Spielberg did in all his movies.

This movie was my childhood fever dream.

You can tell from a lot of scenes that this movie was supposed to be something else entirely, but their deadlines got pushed to the left way too far.

It's the Halloween 3 Effect, I think.

Halloween 3 was a masterpiece

It was a pretty phoned-in sequel in many aspects. It isn't even necessarily bad, just meh. Don Bluth wasn't involved in it at all, which is probably a contributing factor to the weak narrative compared to the first film.

American Tail also just didn't really need a sequel to begin with.

The laaaaaaazy eeeeeeeye

This. I was so sure at one point that I just made this movie up.

They were giving you the laaaazzyyy eeeeyyeee.

This was actually my first exposure to the series. I didn't even realize how dark the first film was until years later.

Doppo almost killed Yujiro with this technique, so it's not that bizarre a cat would do the same.

Hey boss, what's a subversive?

It was better than the first one.

Just remember, Fievel - one man's sunset is another man's dawn. I don't know what's out there beyond those hills. But if you ride yonder... head up, eyes steady, heart open... I think one day you'll find that you're the hero you've been looking for.

Plus the soundtrack is god-tier

it was fucking outstanding and I legit pissed myself laughing when I watched it being about 7-10 years old. I watch it sometimes and fondly still.

>Don Bluth wasn't involved in it at all, which is probably a contributing factor to the weak narrative

Dude, Bluth is a great animator but he always has been lacking in storytelling.

It was so completely wacko that when they retconned it to being "all just a dream" in the next sequel it felt perfectly natural.
I mean, just look at this:

The main bad guy had a sidekick who was a giant spider who shot cobwebs out of his mouth like chewing tobacco. Someone upthread used the term "fever dream" and that's the perfect way to describe this.
>mfw it was Jimmy Stewart's last movie

What did the animators mean by this?

Absolute madmen.

How many times has he had full control over story anyway? I can only think of NIMH and maybe All Dogs. Some were definitely worse due to meddling from higher ups like Land Before Time which got chopped up badly.
