Little Friendly Talking Mice
Created | Updated May 29, 2003
Something had been bugging me recently. While watching Disney movies with a friend I have rediscovered one of my pet hates. Little friendly talking mice. I can't stand them! They ruin perfectly good movies (I'm thinking Cinderella here) and if the movie is solely about those little rats then keep it away from me and get some rat poison!
Anything else is OK by me, talking fish, candlesticks, clocks and other furnishings you can think of (Beauty & The Beast fan here) but NO MICE!
In a perfect world all Disney movies would have no mice whatsoever, no more birds singing with the main character either and they would have to sing "Be Our Guest" at least once. They would also have to have that Jasmine's tiger from Aladdin (Raja) , Sebastian from the Little Mermaid and Tarzan (from Tarzan & Jane, obviously!).
But back to the mice. I don't care if they're helpful, loving, good or anything else. No mice. Movies should have cuddly animals in them, such as the Beast (I'm going to let you guess which movie he's from) and Jasmine's tiger. Well, I think they're cute and loveable. Oh, and Sebastian. What do you mean he's not cuddly?
Before you ask, I always preferred Tom to Jerry. If Jerry didn't aggravate Tom then he wouldn't of had to fight. Tom's just misunderstood. Although in Itchy and Scratchy I do prefer Itchy. Ok, in the whole world of animated mice Itchy is the exception to the rule. Itchy is just himself, he doesn't fit into the stereotype of the "friendly mouse" that I despise.
Now we move onto the mice's allies. Birds. Only the ones that sing with the main character, I have no problem with other flying creatures. You can tell they just want to get the camera on them (please don't say I'm taking this too seriously, I know I'm a little crazy and I do enjoy pointless rants), those self-serving vermin.
Once again, I digress. As my final argument against the mice I ask you to read the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Mice are running this world, don't let them use you! It's world domination, people! Run for your lives! The mice, it's the mice I tell you, the mice! It's a conspiracy! MICE! (Author gets dragged back to loony bin in a straight jacket screaming "MICE!")
Obsidian Butterfly,
love, peace and chocolate sauce.
Sorry for this getting completely out of hand, it did it itself, or was it the mice? And what's wrong with being a bit insane? Sanity's overrated anyway.
