great mouse detective saving disney animation studio’s ass is so fucking funny imagine being the executives of that branch of the studio and you’re being threatened with closure after black cauldron got the shit beaten out of it by the motherfucking care bears movie and you go to the creative team (the only ones who actually care about making good shit) and you’re like “okay guys we need a HUGE hit to save us, what have you got” and they’re like “mouse sherlock holmes with a striptease scene. vincent price is here,”
Im sorry there was a striptease scene in the great loud detective????
The striptease scene is explicitly what saved Disney. The execs were getting ready to shut down the animation branch altogether, and the only scene the GMD team had finished was the bar scene. They showed that to the higher ups, and it impressed them enough to let them keep working on the movie.
Mouse burlesque is the sole reason why Disney Animation still exists today.
are you telling me the mouse striptease is the sole reason we got beauty and the beast
