Ball so hard you and Hercules are some of the only Disney movies titled after the guy, not the girl
Ryan Smith
To answer your question, I don't even fucking know.
Thomas Smith
Good pick. I think a large part of why I like her is just that there aren't many adventure stories where the protag is a mom instead of a youth or some grizzled male badass.
Adrian Brown
by animated i'll assume you mean 2D.
whats with all the fucking mouse movies anyways.
Ayden Hill
Yeah pretty much
Based, I love Frisby for exactly that and how timid she is, it complements the story terrifically
lol wut
Aaron Kelly
ive pretty much never watched movies or TV growing up and starting to try it some. whats this from, OP?

You really can't go wrong with Pic Related.
Jeremiah Smith
Megamind. It's rare when the protagonist is ALSO the best character in a movie.
Benjamin Rodriguez
I've always loved Milo.
Carter Rodriguez
I do not know why. I think its the hair.
Jace Butler
Based as hell
He's actually #3 for me
Easton Brown
Review something good for once, Saberspark!
Parker Allen
People have been ripping on Toy Story recently so I’ve just gotta say that Woody is probably one of the best protagonists in all film.
Hudson Diaz
>Cats Don't Dance is not good
Logan Brooks
She's an absolute beauty. Very very murr.
Justin Phillips
Somebody needs to make a .gif of that scene from the review/movie where he's talking about her hair. She looks absolutely fabulous.
Asher Mitchell
based brisby poster, she's my favorite too
they're really very few mother protags in general, and she rises to the challenge despite being just a little mouse way out of her league with four kids to raise and a recently deceased husband
Secret of NIMH is just a damn good movie too, easily one of the most beautiful animated films around
Justin Morris
That's exactly why I love Frisby, she's a mother who went to incredible feats to save her son and her family. We really don't see anything like that today
Secret of NIMH never ceases to amaze me, even after 10 years of watching it
It was Don Bluth's magnum opus
Joshua Foster
It's truly his best work, I'm pretty sure he's said the same
Even as his later stuff declined in quality, I'll always appreciate him for taking the big step to actually leave his position at Disney and try and recapture the magic and beauty of the golden age of animation he thought was going away at the time.
William Carter
Since this is now a Nimh thread, here's a song about it.

Kevin Flores
Would it be safe to say that Mrs. Brisby is the "Courage The Cowardly Dog" of Don Bluth films?
>she's naturally frightened of alot of things in the world, including very pertinent dangers
>despite this, she thrusts herself into danger for the sake of her family
Josiah Powell
Not sure about Bluth but Goldman and Pomeroy both consider it their group's best work. It helps that this was the only film they had complete creative control over.(though some complain about the added fantastical elements which were not in the book)
They were originally going to make another film after NIMH(East of the Sun, West of the Moon) but it got canned after a major union strike. Fortunately Dragon's Lair made a lot of money unlike NIMH and Spielberg was impressed enough by NIMH to get the studio for a movie deal.

>whats with all the fucking mouse movies anyways.
Mice are small enough that they can create a mirror world of human society while maintaining a separate life from humans.
Cats and dogs can't create a separate mirror society, because they're too big, and also explicitly part of our lives. But mice could have their own little world hidden in the walls of our homes and in our sewers.
Ryan Rodriguez
Sebastian Cooper
Ok. You got me.
Kayden Carter
Top tier choice.
I fucking loved the Great Owl in that movie. Holy shit that was so well done.
Aaron Gonzalez
Why are mice so kino
Colton Johnson
Was Ori inspired by this?
Henry Powell
Shame they haven't done more with the franchise.
Zachary Jenkins
Very solid character arc too.
Angel Peterson
>things animators would hotglue
Aaron Cox
deuteragonist gone protagonist so she counts
not my favorite per-se but one on my list of many that just makes the film feel complete
Benjamin Sanders
Man, if I ever have kids, I hope I could muster even half the courage Mrs. Brisby summoned for her family.
Connor Adams
I wonder how she'd react if you picked her up and started petting her.
Leo Russell
I'd say so to a certain extent
Whether you're a male/female, your courage will come naturally. Life just changes forever when you see your newborn child for the 1st time as you know you'd do anything for them. Parenthood does wonders
Owen Clark

Anyone have a webm of this scene?
Thanks!

Will always be my favorite animated film and protagonist.
Carson Adams
What Crash Racing DLC is this?
Brayden Powell
>he hasn’t unlocked the secret roster
Jeremiah Nelson
>he doesn't know
Jaxson Gonzalez
This is how you do a strong female character.
No one liners, no "I'm a badass" lines, just a regular woman who spends half the film terrified but confronts her fears for the sake of others.
Kevin Bell
He's A protagonist.
Christopher Bennett
This shot doesn't sit right with me, it makes her stomach look really fucking weird...
Bentley Gutierrez
The entertainment industry NEEDS characters like her: genuine, heartfelt and most important, real
It's a shithole thanks to the "empowered women" narrative that ruins everything it touches
Xavier Nguyen
It's not quite there for me.
Maybe if they did away with the "DreamWorks movie with big comedian" feel.
Angel Rivera
The book is not nearly as good and anyone who tells you otherwise is just being contrary.
Nathaniel Rodriguez
She can't be a protagonist if she shows up 30 minutes into the movie and then turns into an inactive statue for the last 20 minutes.
Cameron Rivera
Ian Thompson
I have many questions...
Josiah Mitchell
Why
Colton Price
God I wish that were me
Hunter Powell
because Secret of NMH
Aiden Taylor
HOW DID I MISS THAT
Aiden Young
Recently read the book myself and I agree. The film does an excellent job at improving Mrs. Frisby in particular.
Asher Wilson
>You stay.
>I go.
>No following.
Hudson Thomas
Isaiah Wright
Half the book it spent in the labs. In the film they do it in about 30 seconds.
Hunter Morris
John Pomeroy:
>John Carradine was wracked and riddled with arthritis. He could barely walk. He would walk with a limp in a sort of hunchback fashion. And at first, it's a sad-looking impression that you're getting. Afterwards, after you put the man together with the physical appearance, suddenly he's very majestic in some strange, supernatural way. So all of these qualities I wanted to put in this scene.
Aaron Taylor
Have there been any recent ones? All the best of them are from the 80s.
Michael Lopez
Blew my mind as a lad when gave him a come hither look and said, "In or out?" instead of EEEEEK GET OUT PERVERT
Ryder Evans
Jordan Price
Jordan Murphy
So why is she Frisby in the book and Brisby in the movie?
Luke Morales
Wham-O(Frisbee) objected to the name and Aurora wanted to avoid a legal battle they could not afford. Apparently the change was very late in production, and they had to alter John Carradine's voice lines manually since he could not re-record.
Cooper Sanders
That movie is really something else
Ethan Jackson
im still wating for the other CTR DLC.
Landon Gomez
It's hard to believe this was made by Dreamworks Animation considering all the other animated films they made.
Adam Williams
Damn
Joseph Price
>It looks like a setup for a rape scene
Anthony Scott
Is this that chick from Star Fox?
Jace Walker
Low population
Alexander Morris
back to /trash/ nigga
I like that you can tell Brutus is trying to be more frightening than to actually kill Brisby
Owen Martinez
And how Brisby responds completes the scene
Fuck, why is this movie so good?
Christian Price
>when she used her feminine wiles on Jeremy
You wouldn't think it most of the time but holy god she's a sex demon in the guise of a mouse
John Howard

Mods...it's time to delete this thread.

my ancestors are smiling at me imperial
can you say the same
Thomas Sanchez
Most of Don Bluth's characters are God-tier.
David Diaz
Even the troll?
Michael Sanders
> most
Carter James
Sadly
I'm the OP, I accidentally left this page, only for this shit to happen
No, you fucking deviant. It's a mouse that's going to dangerous feats to save her family. Fuck you and your furry shit ruining this thread >:(
Caleb Williams
Pic attached is mine.
I watched 'Secret of Nimh' for the 1st time about 5 years ago (on an ancient VHS to boot!), it is very good. I was a teen when it was released & thus wasn't interested but do recall my little brother going to see it. It seems to have aged well.
Chase Martin
>mouse eventually goes to save tbe one it loves
Angel Evans
>ends with her and mike driving off with a bear hanging onto the back of their car
so they totally died, right?
Jacob Ward
Actually, the bear gets swerved off but yeah their final disposition leaves one hanging. I think the director tweeted that Mike & Nancy survive. Prob on the run from Bear mafia and unpaid bank loan. I wonder if they'll be in the sequel?
Alexander Baker
Here is a neat detail most people miss:
Justin refers to this guy as Brutus. You only see him from a distance, but he looks nothing like the giant rat from the earlier scene.
Jose Edwards
Brayden Cooper
Just a lil' reminder that Disney now completely ignores her and her franchise.
It's just not fair, bros.
Brandon Edwards
is there going to be one?
I don't know if THAT guy is better off with or without more
James Torres
I'm not sure if I'd want a sequel after what they did to poor Ralph.
Jason Anderson
Basil of Baker Street from The Great Mouse Detective. In turn, Professor Ratigan is one of my all time favorite villains.
Gabriel Martin
If we're talking villains, Haggard is up there for me. It's a real shame Christopher Lee never got to reprise this role in that delayed/cancelled live action version.
Isaac Hughes
Whenever I get sad I remember that there is a company that calls itself wham-o dedicated to making fun, neat toys
Elijah Perry
Mrs Brisbys perception of him made him seem scarier.
In the book Ages reams him out pretty bad.
Caleb Long
Best DreamWorks film
Lincoln Carter
I have no interest in seeing that happen but it would be interesting to see where that would lead in terms of character development. How does a character like that react to such an event?
Michael Powell
If what you say is true, you were born in the late 1960s and have no place being here, geriatric son of a bitch
Adam Wood
That's Illumination we're talking about, masters of cutting corners. Of course there's going to be a sequel, gotta reuse these fugly CGI models again to make quick buck.They did Secret Life of Pets 2, they will do Sing 2.
Evan Ward
So what?
If he's old, he's old. You'll get there someday
Xavier Gomez
mittens is a sexy pussy
Oliver Young
Perhaps that would explain the strange electric spear as well.
Easton Long
I liked mittens too, you ever play those bolt games?
Benjamin Long

Sebastian Bailey
Just watched it. How can one cartoon have so much soul?
Kevin Wilson
She comes across very submissive. It feels like they portrayed a housewife held under the patriachal society's thumb. This could be interpreted as a sexist trope by modern standards. But at the same time, she shows courage to combat that. Not sure how modern feminists view her, even though the film seems fairly feminist.
I do have to say that in modern terms, the empowerered woman seems somewhat forced and artificial. Brisby seems so much more down to earth. Possibly too realistic? I dunno. All I can say is that she is adorable in every way.
David Davis
In the book, she's more like a bystander.
Originally, Jeremy and Justin had to bust her out of the birdcage and the cinder block was moved by the rats without her involvement. Quite a few people don't like the magic amulet but the goal of that scene was to have her save her children herself.
Jayden Lee
where is this from?
Aaron Jackson
It was a labor of love with minimal executive meddling apart from the 2.5 year deadline and relatively low budget.
Animators were also willing to work unpaid overtime, in return they got shares of the film's profits. Unions put a stop to practices like that soon after this film which is part of what prevented Bluth from doing another independent production.
