History Funny / TheAristocats

* The final fight between the animals and Edgar has plenty of these:

** A bit of an amusing image before this: while Frou-Frou is warning him to be careful, Roquefort is using her tail like a climbing rope to slide down her rear end to the floor.

** One cat hooks a rope to the collar behind Edgar, and Frou-Frou uses her teeth to pull the rope and Edgar towards her, freeing Thomas, Duchess, and the kittens from the chest. This leads to a rather humorous image of Frou-Frou holding the rope in her mouth with an intense DeathGlare, balancing on her front legs with her butt high in the air, then delivering a fierce kick to Edgar's rear to knock him into the chest.

* Roquefort tries to ride on Edgar's motorcycle to find out where he left the cats, but [[he can't hold on and falls off after they've barely left Madame's house.]]

* The final fight between the animals and Edgar has plenty of these

* '''Roquefort''': '''"[[BigShutUp QUIET!]]"'''
** [[ATruceWhileWeGawk And everyone freezes in mid-fight in response until Roquefort opens the lock]]. And then they resume fighting.

** Edgar, after successfully trapping the cats (including O'Malley) back in the chest, proclaims "You are going to Timbuktu, [[TemptingFate if it's the last thing I do!]]". Cue Scat Cat untying a knot holding up a heavy bale of hay which promptly falls onto Edgar's head.

* The end, with ''everyone'' of the cast singing "Everybody wants to be a cat", ''including'' Napoleon and Lafayette!

-->'''Lafayette''': "Well, where's my BEDDY-BYE BASKET?!"

** The part where they take the stairs and Georges rides Edgar piggy back after [[SuspenderSnag attaching his cane to Edgar's suspenders]] and using them to launch himself onto Edgar, shouting, "Upward and onward! Whee!"

* When Berlioz accuses Marie of starting their tiff, she replies with "''Ladies'' do not start fights, '''but they can finish them.'''" Berlioz replies sticking his tongue at her.

** Toulouse abandons his painting to join in on the song. He’s still covered in paint, though, which means he splashes it everywhere as he hits the keys. Berlioz is not amused, especially when some orange paint splashes in his face, earning Toulouse a DisapprovingLook.
** The SiblingRivalry escalates near the song’s end when Berlioz and Toulouse get into a piano duel, jumping around on the keys in a bid to end the song first. Getting carried away, they end up [[WatchWhereYoureGoing colliding in midair]] and falling onto the keys, ending the song with a discordant note instead.

* This line from Napoleon. Pat Buttram's delivery and timing has to be heard to be believed:

* The way O'Malley stops the milk truck: By leaping onto the hood of the vehicle with [[https://disney.fandom.com/wiki/Thomas_O%27Malley/Gallery?file=Aristocats-disneyscreencaps_com-3513.jpg the most priceless "psycho-kitty" expression and pose]] to scare the daylights out of the driver, complete with a comically loud cat screech and the camera shaking.

** He says hello to them by yelling, "Abigail! AAAAAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELIA! My two favourite nooses!"

** When Napoleon's using his SuperSenses to describe Edgar's squeaking shoes, Lafayette asks him what color they are. And even better, his guess of Edgar's shoe colour [[AccidentalTruth is actually true without him realizing]]:

* Amelia and Abigail spot O'Malley and assume [[ComicallyMissingThePoint he's trying to learn how to swim]]. They decide to teach him and almost end up drowning him in the process.

* When Berlioz accuses Marie of starting their tiff, she replies with "''Ladies'' do not start fights, '''but they can finish them.'''"

** When Napoleon's using his SuperSenses to describe Edgar's squeaking shoes, Lafayette asks him what color they are. And even better, his guess of Edgar's shoe colour is actually true without him realizing:

--> '''Lafayette''': Hey Napoleon, that sounds like the end!
--> '''Napoleon''': Wait a minute, I'm the leader! I'll say when it's the end... [[spoiler: ''(the words "THE END" literally knock him in the head)'' It's the end.]]

* O'Malley commenting on Duchess's eyes is followed by this.

--->'''Marie:''' How romantic!
--->'''Berlioz:''' [[SickeninglySweet Sissy stuff]].

** He says that it was dreadful that the chefs were trying to baste him in white wine... [[SkewedPriorities because being British, he would have preferred sherry.]]
--->'''Thomas:''' ''(After getting a whiff of Waldo's breath)'' "Basted?" He's ''marinated'' in it!

* Edgar's entire reasoning for why he tried to kill the cats is, in of itself, a hilarious conclusion he made, believing the cats literally have nine lives.

** When Napoleon's using his SuperSenses to describe Edgar's squeaking shoes, Lafayette asks him what color they are. And even better, his guess of Edgar's shoe colour is [[AccidentallyAccurate actually true]] without him realizing:

** The aforementioned "little old cricket bug" moment is when Napoleon hears Edgar's squeaky shoes, but Lafayette thinks it's only a cricket bug. When Napoleon says that it's shoes, Lafayette replies, "[[ComicallyMissingThePoint Oh, cricket bugs don't wear shoes!]]".

* When Napoleon's using his SuperSenses to describe Edgar's squeaking shoes, Lafayette asks him what color they are. And even better, his guess of Edgar's shoe colour is [[AccidentallyAccurate actually true]] without him realizing:

* When Edgar later returns to the countryside to recover incriminating evidence from the dogs. HilarityEnsues.
-->'''Lafayette''': "Well, where's my BEDDY-BYE BASKET?!"

** The part where they take the stairs and Georges rides Edgar piggy back after attaching his cane to Edgar's suspenders and using them to launch himself onto Edgar, shouting, "Upward and onward! Whee!"

* When Madame is taking a picture of the cats

* When Edgar sneaks out of the house with the cats in the first place. He gets "held up" by a tree branch, notices that he's approaching a police station and [[OhCrap promptly hauls ass in the opposite direction]], only to then accidentally ride down the steps into a [[UsefulNotes/LeMetropolitain subway station]].

* Tolouse's painting lesson results in an abstract picture of Egdar, whom Berlioz calls "[[EmbarrassingNickname Old Picklepuss]]". Duchess has to [[ActuallyPrettyFunny stifle a laugh]] before she can admonish her kitten.

* O'Malley's [[MomentKiller discovery of the presence of Duchess' kittens.]] He tries to flirt with Duchess and talk to her about going on a trip, just the two of them. Then Marie arrives and says, "[[InnocentInaccurate Oh, that would be wonderful!]]", followed by the boys running up.

* This line from Napoleon. Pat Buttram's delivery and timing has to be heard to be believed:
-->'''Napoleon''': Wait a minute, I'm the leader. I'm the one that says when we go. (''{{Beat}}'') Here we go. '''''Charge!'''''
* When Napoleon's using his SuperSenses to describe Edgar's squeaking shoes, Lafayette asks him what color they are. And even better, his guess of Edgar's shoe colour is [[AccidentallyAccurate actually true]] without him realizing:
-->'''Napoleon''': Well, they're black-- ''(suddenly snapping)'' Now how would I know that?!
* When Edgar sneaks out of the house with the cats in the first place. He gets "held up" by a tree branch, notices that he's approaching a police station and [[OhCrap promptly hauls ass in the opposite direction]], only to then accidentally ride down the steps into a [[UsefulNotes/LeMetropolitain subway station]].
** Also, when Edgar rides his motorcycle up to the point of the dogs chasing him, his hat flips off his head every time the motorcycle backfires... which happens a lot during that time.

* Uncle Waldo.
-->"Now, girls, don't go shooshing your old Uncle Waldo! Why, you'll wake up the whole neighborhood! '''WHOOPEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'''!!!"
** He says hello to them by yelling, "Abigail! AAAAAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELIA! My two favourite nooses!"
** As the three geese are leaving, Thomas and Duchess' comments sum up the whole thing.
--->'''Thomas:''' I like Uncle Waldo.
--->'''Duchess:''' Especially when he's "marinated"!
** He says that it was dreadful that the chefs were trying to baste him in white wine... [[SkewedPriorities because being British, he would have preferred sherry.]]
--->'''Thomas:''' ''(After getting a whiff of Waldo's breath)'' "Basted?" He's ''marinated'' in it!
* [[CoolOldGuy Georges]] [[CloudCuckoolander Hautecourt]].
** He refuses to ride the elevator because [[HypocriticalHumor "Elevators are for old people!"]] even though he's older than eighty himself.
** The part where they take the stairs and Georges rides Edgar piggy back after attaching his cane to Edgar's suspenders and using them to launch himself onto Edgar, shouting, "Upward and onward! Whee!"
*** Immediately followed up by "Am I going too fast for you?", while Georges is ON TOP of Edgar.
** When Edgar finally makes it into Madame's room to announce Georges arrival, [[{{Understatement}} he's looking considerably less that put-together.]]
* '''Roquefort''': '''"[[BigShutUp QUIET!]]"'''
** [[ATruceWhileWeGawk And everyone freezes in mid-fight in response until Roquefort opens the lock]]. And then they resume fighting.
*** Also, the fact that this is a rare instance in which we hear Creator/SterlingHolloway, best known for playing rather soft and timid characters, shout.
** Edgar, after successfully trapping the cats (including O'Malley) back in the chest, proclaims "You are going to Timbuktu, [[TemptingFate if it's the last thing I do!]]". Cue Scat Cat untying a knot holding up a heavy bale of hay which promptly falls onto Edgar's head.
* When Madame is taking a picture of the cats
-->'''Madame''': Say "cheese"!
-->'''Roquefort''': Did somebody say cheese? -FLASH-

* This exchange when the three kittens are stuck in the pet door.
--> '''Toulouse''': Why should ''you'' be first?
--> '''Marie''': Because I am a lady, that's why!
--> '''Toulouse''': ''(snickers)'' You are not a lady.
--> '''Berlioz''': You're nothing but a sister! (Pulls Marie's tail and bumps her back into the door)
* While Berlioz and Marie are fighting, Toulouse pushes a candlestick which lands on Marie's head.
--> '''Marie''': Ow! Now, that hurt! ''({{beat}})'' Mama! Mama!
* Berlioz's calling Marie a tattletale [[AsideComment to the audience]].
* Tolouse's painting lesson results in an abstract picture of Egdar, whom Berlioz calls "[[EmbarrassingNickname Old Picklepuss]]". Duchess has to [[ActuallyPrettyFunny stifle a laugh]] before she can admonish her kitten.
* Quite a few during the ''Scales and Arpeggios'' bit.
** Berlioz is keen to show off his piano skills, causing Marie to roll her eyes. Then, when she tries to start the next verse, she does a DoubleTake as Berlioz starts an impromptu piano solo with all four paws on the keys.
** Toulouse abandons his painting to join in on the song. He’s still covered in paint, though, which means he splashes it everywhere as he hits the keys. Berlioz is not amused, especially when some orange paint splashes in his face, earning Toulouse a DisapprovingLook.
** The SiblingRivalry escalates near the song’s end when Berlioz and Toulouse get into a piano duel, jumping around on the keys in a bid to end the song first. Getting carried away, they end up [[WatchWhereYoureGoing colliding in midair]] and falling onto the keys, ending the song with a discordant note instead.
* When Edgar gives Duchess and the kittens the milk laced with sleeping pills:
--> '''Edgar''': Sleep well! I-I mean eat, eat well, of course!
** "Rock-a-bye kitties, bye-bye you go. La-la-la-la, and I'm in the dough..."
* Roquefort getting shot in the gut by a champagne cork.
--> '''Roquefort:''' Oh he got me!

* When Napoleon's using his SuperSenses to describe Edgar's squeaking shoes, Lafayette asks him what colour they are. And even better, his guess of Edgar's shoe colour is [[AccidentallyAccurate actually true]] without him realizing:

** He says that it was dreadful that the chefs were trying to baste him in white wine... [[SkewedPriorities because being British, he would have preferred sherry.

* O'Malley's [[MomentKiller discovery of the presence of Duchess' kittens.]]
* "''Ladies'' do not start fights, '''but they can finish them.'''"

* "[[OohMeAccentsSlipping Schwinger? Vat is a schwinger?]]"

** "Abigail! AAAAAMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELIA!"

** [[HypocriticalHumor "Elevators are for old people!"]]

-->'''Roquefort''': [[OhCrap WHY DID I EVER LISTEN TO THAT O'MALLEY CAT!?!]]
--> '''Scat Cat''': O'Malley?! (''Drops him'')

-->'''Lafayette''': "Well, where's my BEDDY-BYE BASKET?!"

** When Edgar returns to the countryside to recover incriminating evidence from them. HilarityEnsues.
