Watching Oliver & Company for the first time since I was 5 or 6.

Two minutes in and I am already homesick.
WHO IGNORES AN ORANGE KITTEN? These utter monsters.
Ok, if I can& #39;t watch even ONLY the end of Breakfast at Tiffany& #39;s and not SOB at Cat in the rain why did I think this was a good plan?

I& #39;m already about to lose it.
"Once Upon a Time in New York City," indeed.
Oh no! Oliver! Don& #39;t sleep in a wheel well!

...you found out why.
I& #39;m extremely feeling this not-Chuck-Jones-we-promise hand drawn animation.
These utterly heartless fucks. I canNOT.

Who ignores a sad, hungry, orange kitten???
Enter: Dodger.

Don Bluth was over there like, "Can I copy your homework?"
GDI, Dodger, give the hungry kitten ONE LOUSY SAUSAGE you jerk.
Ayyyy, here& #39;s Billy Joel.
When the beat drops in "Why Should I Worry?"
This song legit namedrops the Chelsea Hotel and St Marks Place.

The phrase to rhyme with "Care?" is STREET SAVOIR-FAIRE.

This song goes hard.
The backgrounds on this movie are a FEAST. I want to pause every 3sec just to read everything.
And now, the moment Baby Jill learned about Cheech Marin. (The meme is from later in the movie, I just fucking love that line.)
Based on logos I& #39;ve seen so far, companies that sponsored this movie are:
-McDonald& #39;s
-Coca-Cola
-Ryder Trucks
Seriously, there were like three Ryder trucks in the opening sequence.
Awww. Fagin just legit loves these dogs.

This is some quality mid-80s animated Dom DeLuise.

Again, Don Bluth over here like, "Can I copy your homework?"
ACA-SCUSE ME?????
Those dogs just sat there and watched Fagin eat a dog biscuit. They did that.
What was it with the 80s and the many, many pieces of media aimed at children that suggested living in squalor was fine if you had a found family?

...did they know what the 2000s were going to be like?
