Another good talking animal movie is, Rock and Rule. When they went to the club in American Rabbit, it just reminded me that I could be watching Rock and Rule, or Fritz the Cat, instead.

American Rabbit is at Amazon for 19.50 (DVD) I'm surprised they're charging so much for a old movie. The Brave Little Toaster is on DVD for just 6.99. I did a bit of browsing, and most other classic old cartoon movies (American Tail, for example) are 6.99 or close to it.
 
Fritz the Cat is good, but dated and full of offensive stereotypes. The sequel isn't worth anyone's time though, not funny or interesting. Rock and Rule has good music, and really has grown on me over the years. I watch Rock and Rule a few times a year. Much better animated feature than American Rabbit.

OK, I sat through this entire movie. I have seen worse cartoons (for one, "Elm-Chanted Forest" is worse, don't ever bother watching that), but this one was still a real turd. It's a product of the era when people thought it was fine for a cartoon to be totally retarded because only little kids watch cartoons and it's good enough for 'em. The plot is almost as stupid as something from an issue of Sonichu.
Holy shit I watched that once! Remember the guy with a guillotine for a face?

Elm-Chanted Forest? The villain was like some cactus dude. I remember it had some big dumb bear that was always saying he was going to go drink a "light bear" (like "light BEER", get it? ha-yuk!). Chris wouldn't have liked it cause the protagonist was human. It was made in some East European shit-hole around the same time as American Rabbit. Maybe the story wasn't so dumb in the original commie language version, but it probably was.
Sorry to bring up an old topic, buuuuuut

In second grade at school I remember being forced to sit through a horrible Eastern European cartoon over a great deal many days when we couldn't go outside to play after lunch. It was called Willy the Sparrow. Basically in order to teach this kid to be kind to all animals, he's turned into a sparrow and has to live as one for a while. It's dumb and boring. I was pissed every day we had to watch another ten or fifteen minutes of it since nothing really happened. I don't think the European version was really different either. Like, the only changes they made between the two versions is that one of the sparrows didn't willingly get drunk (or something like that) and the cat only wanted to "get revenge" on the kid-turned-sparrow for hitting it with a water balloon or whatever in the American version. Because he can't have alcohol or death in American cartoons according to everyone who thinks kids can't comprehend or handle anything.

Rock and Rule is one of my favorites. I'm glad to see I'm not the only one on the forum who appreciates it. :heart-full:

If we are talking about rabbit cartoons I was alway partial to Watershipdown...
Let's so Chris that, he'll just love the cute little bunnies.
 
I could grab a copy and fire it his way, he still accepts snail mail stuff right? :mrgreen:
 
I think it's a good idea. He'll probably get excited about an Amazon box.

Probably had a low amount of DVDs made. Kind of how Clownhouse goes for $20 on Amazon while you can get Halloween for about $5.

I wonder what Chris would think about the movie Heavy Metal?

It does have some naked dudes in there, yet enough boobs that Chris could watch it and still claim he's straight, so he'd probably enjoy it.

I think he'd really like the last part but not the part with Dr. Manhattan wannabe guy because he doesn't have a shirt.
