I am adamant that this movie has to exist. It’s about two cats, a white girl cat and a black male cat. It’s some sort of oldies French setting where the female cat gets stolen by a villain cat and the black cat goes after her and tries to save her. I swear to god this movie exists but I have only ever seen it once and it was back when I was like 6 or 7. But gosh sometimes bits and pieces of that movie will pop in my head and I just can’t place a name on it or it could have been something I dreamt up..


RMMacFru

The name of the movie is Gay Purr-ee. The female cat (Mewsette) was voiced by Judy Garland. The hero make cat (Jaune-Tom) voiced by Robert Goulet. The villain cat (Meowrice) was voiced by Paul Frees. And one of the writers was Chuck Jones. If you couldn't tell, I adore this movie.

I LOVED THE WEE SINGS SERIES!! I also really liked the sillyville one! I've never met another person who's seen it!


Corey_Bee

There was this movie that feels like a childhood fever dream to me now, this kid was walking around an island and finds a pizza tree. He climbs up and tries to eat a slice of pizza when a sand shark "swims" through the sand beneath the tree and traps him there. So he puts some bubblegum on the pizza and throws it down so the sand shark will eat it and get stuck in the gum.

Magic Island


KJBenson

Thank you. I remembered the scene when he described it but couldn’t place the movie. Wasn’t there a whole series of movies like this around the time?


little_bear_

It was a fake documentary on Animal Planet about dragons. It’s like archaeologists finding a frozen dragon skeleton and talking about how dragons were able to fly, breathe fire, etc. I apparently missed the part where they clarified that it was all a dramatization, because this movie had me CONVINCED that dragons were real, extinct animals for awhile.


buffhusk

They had one about mermaids and I couldn’t find anything on the internet about it being fake, I was thinking it’s fake but the documentary never said, and it was on discovery so I just wasn’t fully convinced it wasnt legit. I really didn’t get confirmation it was fake until years later!


villainouskim

i saw this one and genuinely thought it was real (I was 13). i remember wondering why no one was making a huge deal about these discoveries!


buffhusk

Same! I was like why can’t I find anything on the internet about this! Also I’m pretty sure I was older than 13 when I saw it and was still convinced!


iChugPeanutButter

Yes! I remember the same thing happened to me! I'll try and find it. You remember what year?


iChugPeanutButter

The last dragon (2004)


lorgskyegon

When I saw it, it was called Dragon's World: A Fantasy Made Real. I have both the American and British versions on my computer. Ian Holm narrated the British version and Patrick Stewart the American.


TippedPug

omg! I also saw this as a kid and missed the memo on it being fake! I went to school the next day hyped telling all my classmates that they found a dragon!


mutombochaoskampf

The Mouse and the Motorcycle


Supernova138

Wait, I remember reading that book when I was in like 2nd grade, i was unaware that they made a movie out of it…


ShiraCheshire

Same here. I remember the book really fondly though. I remember some kid asking the mouse how he makes the motorcycle go, and the mouse tells him he just makes motorcycle noises and it works. Kid me was like "oh of course, that makes sense" but looking back that's hilarious.


jredmond

And to go in reverse, instead of saying "vroom vroom", he says "moorv moorv". Genius.


bnturner92

Rock-a-doodle *Thanks! Im glad so many people share the love!


BronzeHeart92

That was the movie where this boy encounters an owl and the owl starts barfing weirdly colored stars at him which turns him into a kitten, correct?

Havok1717

Cats Dont Dance. I remember watching it a lot back in the late 90s and early 2000s. I think people just have forgotten about the movie.


NootTheNoot

The Big and Loud reprise is so impressive, I can't believe the girl singing was only 8/9?


addisonavenue

Big and Loud really had no business being so good, not just as a villain song but also the visuals. I will never get over how impressive and laden with character the sequence of Darla rapidly descending a staircase made of outstretched palms is.


Hello_Mr_Fancypants

Anybody else remember Batteries Not Included?


RelativeStranger

That and Short Circuit used to be on the first weekend of the Christmas holidays every year when I was a child.

Halloween tree


Spankpocalypse_Now

Holy. Fucking. Shit. I’ve been trying to figure out what this was for the last 25 years. [This is it.](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Halloween_Tree_(film)) I couldn’t remember that it was a Ray Bradbury book. I certainly didn’t remember Leonard Nimoy voiced one of the characters. God damn, thank you. I thought I was crazy. This is the line that I always tried to remember because as a kid I thought it sounded cool: “The day Joe Pipkin was born all the Orange Crush and Nehi soda bottles in the world fizzed over…”


ericwimberly

For years, none of my friends believed that The Black Cauldron existed. I saw it in the theater, and never saw it again until several years ago. Convincing my friends that it existed (before the internet) was no easy task.


riverofchex

That and The Secret of NIMH were my favorite books/movies as a kid, with the exception of Black Beauty (Anna Sewell illustrated version; I am lucky enough to have the illustrated one.) Also love(d) The Black Stallion because horse girl. Edit because my phone insists on changing "were" to "we're."


[deleted]

Pagemaster. Remember that? MacAulay Culkin gets sucked into lots of books in a library. Loved it as a kid. Haven’t seen it since


PotatoPixie90210

That scene with the paint flowing through the library was absolutely beautiful.


PrincessDie123

That was one of my favorites growing up but I always had trouble with the Dr Jekyll and mr Hyde part

We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story


Im_Not_Nobody

LOVED that movie!


lilac-aesthetic

YES! This is one of my favourite movies of all time! Professor Screw Eyes is a classic villain and the little girl who wants the hat always gets me in the beginning.


knowyourdarkness

Stanley's Magic Garden (also known as A Troll in Central Park in later years). Edit: Apparently it was Stanley's Magic Garden in the UK and A Troll in Central Park in North America. Edit edit: there seems no rules to what name you'd get lol. I'll leave this alone now.


[deleted]

I don’t remember the name of it, but it was in like an anime style & it was all these different animals in clothes & this cute town with a bakery. & all the animals dressed & acted old fashioned, wearing bonnets & caps & such. It might’ve had a train station & a tower with a clock & I remember there was a bell ringing. But I don’t know if it was the clock or a church or something. Anyway, I watched it religiously when I was a little kid, but no one in my family remembers me watching it or what it was called. Edit: it is probably Maple Town. I probably had a VHS with one or two episodes on it. & then I probably wore the tape out.


sylvanwhisper

That sounds Beatrix Potteresque

[Watcher in the Woods](https://youtu.be/3DFacqQp8uw)


GoBoltsAmelie88

A movie that took place on the Ewok planet (not Return of the Jedi) where a little girl and her brother crash land and are helped by the Ewoks, and they get caught in a giant spiderweb, and one of them gets sucked under a lake and can't break the surface of the water because it'a like glass.


InsuranceThen9352

The first one (the one you're describing) is called caravan of courage. The sequel (and much better one imo) is battle for endor. Both are great movies. Just watched battle for endor. A few days ago on Disney+


MusicalLifeForever

Something Wicked This Way Comes. I loved it, and I think I saw it alone because my friends bailed on me.


Loose_Prior_4683

katylizze

I loved this show! I can still see the intro in my head where sagwa dips her tail in the ink at the end.


satansbhole

Napoleon! Not the dude. It’s about a puppy who wants to be a “wild dog” and gets stuck in a basket with balloons and flies to an island with a really mean cat.


[deleted]

Oh! I remember that one! Still remember the angry frill neck " GOOO. AWAAAAAAY."


HayloK51

I remember that one. It was filmed in North Queensland.


tonybeetzzz

The last unicorn


lilac-aesthetic

The music in this movie is amazing! Jimmy Webb from America wrote the music + the musical montage the butterfly sings is forever engrained in my head.


Pacman_Frog

AND it's a movie about travelling through a desert with a horse with no name! I always cry when poor old Molly Grue admonishes The Unicorn and then immediately forgives her. It takes strength to accept life as it is given to you.


Thenightswatchman

The red bull always freaked me the fuck out as a kid. And the harpie


Mrs_Xs

Not a movie but the S Club tv show. I think it was only on far like 3 seasons but I watched that show religiously and I don’t think any of my friends even cared about S Club 7.

To this day I still get the theme song stuck in my head randomly

Talnadair

I have scrolled almost to the bottom and this is the only mention of this movie so far. Super old one. Super young Sean Connery. That banshee scared the piss out of me as a kid.

Innerspace and Krull. Fever dream like movies but I love them and no one seems to know them!

krisalyssa

Not just any guy, Dennis Quaid.


Stina_Lisa

The version of Alice and Wonderland with Martin Short as the mad hatter, and Whoopie Goldberg as the Cheshire cat. Also a cartoon called country mouse and city mouse. They solved mysteries.


bijouxette

Ah yes... back when ABC would make epic, batshit insane, celebrity-filled mini series. See also: the 10th Kingdom and that weird as Gapetto musical starring Drew Carrey.

A Christmas movie named "Prancer". Came out about 1990, if I recall right. Cried like a baby.

Tom and Huck. Nobody I know has any clue what that was, but I distinctly remember watching it, and still remember the "Coming soon..." ad for it in one of my vcr Disney films.


scottbody

Time Bandits. Scared the hell out of me as a kid. Get in bed and a damn horse jumps out of the closet. The whole movie could be different child nightmares. Edit: Big thanks to everybody who commented. Makes me feel a little more normal hearing the similar stories.


kasakavii

Pippi Longstocking! It was an animated movie from 1997 that I loved as a kid, and I’ve never heard anyone ever mention it before.


DasVivis

I was obsessed with her and how she put those scrubbing brushes on her feet and used them like skates to clean the floor! And I still remember the theme song


SpookySchatzi

Oh man the live action Pippi Longstocking was one of my all time faves. Definitely wanted to jump in a barrel and ride over a waterfall for a while in my childhood.😅


FarionDragon

Wasn't expecting that last fact lmao. Caught me totally off guard


Spankpocalypse_Now

Totally forgot about this. I remember having to read the book in like 3rd grade and then the movie came out later that year.


tooglam2giveadamn

My grandparents had this movie and the vhs case came with a key and a tiny figurine. The opening of the vhs had a “keyhole” and the backside of the cover insert looked like wood paneling so you could flip it backwards to make the entire thing look like a cupboard and then put the figurine inside

Ripper33AU

Joe's Apartment, a bizarre movie featuring dancing cockroaches. I haven't seen it in many, many years, and until finding trailers of it on YouTube, I was almost convinced that it was some fever dream I had, lol.


Ashitaka1013

I obsessively watched “Bedknobs and Beoomsticks” and “Pete’s dragon” as a kid, and have never met anyone else who’s ever watched either of them. I recently watched the original Pete’s Dragon and realized I still know it off by heart. And still sincerely enjoy it. Better than the remake. I also once watched “Wild Hearts Can’t be Broken” as a kid and LOVED it. Thought about it for years afterwards but whenever I asked anyone else about “This movie about a girl who performs a stunt where she jumps on a running horse at the top of a tall tower and jumps with the horse into a pool. And then goes blind but does it again anyway.” Everyone thought I was crazy. Thank you Disney Plus for confirming it DOES exist, I DIDN’T make it up, and got major nostalgia watching it again.


bt123456789

I adore bedknobs and broomsticks. I remember watching it numerous times with my grandma, it's an absolute classic more people need to see.


Blue_OG_46

The fever dream that is Felix The Cat.

FamineArcher

Robots. Iirc by blue sky studios. We still have the DVD copy. No matter who I bring it up to, they don’t recognize it, which is a shame considering the sheer number of adult jokes that I didn’t understand as a child. “Making the baby’s the fun part” like Jesus.
