Pretty sure max is legit a demon. See how in his exit he vanished into thin air as soon as he touched the hole he came in through? On top of being ten times the size of an elephant.
This entrance is one of the best in animation. We hear the humming, hear his steps but still haven’t seen him yet. He hear the crash and the body shaped hole. When we do see him it’s just his massive body and his head covered by the studio lights. He never opens his mouth to speak and just an amazing exit. He fits perfectly into the hole and the light and poof he vanishes
I love how this supernatural mountain of a man doesn’t just leave conventionally, he vanishes in a flash of light. I’m half convinced he’s some kind of demon.
I think the energy was him gathering energy for a burst of speed. As for what I think he is, I think he's a genetically modified gorilla who was created to be the ultimate supersoldier.
Movies back then were absolutely magical in storytelling and scope. The beautiful scores were final icing on the cake 🎂. There's no magic or inspiration anymore 😢, seems to be all political and personal agendas and corporate profit. I've noticed that most movie scores sound very generic with "NO" hearts or emotions. I really want to bringing the back those types of movies that I grew up with ever since I was toddler and younger ages in 2000s era with more "Absolutely Magical", "Storytelling" and "Scope". Even more "Heart and Emotion". There totally needs to be a time when humans really need to make a "True" animated movie that touched the soul and heart of the viewers of all ages. Somebody hand-drawn and computer animation, it's not just the movies, TV shows as well for all ages on Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network, Disney Channel, and the Walt Disney company needs to take there place in the circle of animations shows and movies for everyone. I hope sometimes in the future, My family would see the newspaper or different articles on the internet of their own cellphones 📱 about I finally got my dream job as "Ian Cassidy save the Walt Disney Company for bringing the 2-D animated style in order pay homage and tribute to past Disney's 2-D animated style movies were made in old glory days". "Ian Cassidy made his promise to have more Magic and/or Inspiration from 2-D animated movies from Disney."Walt Disney Company made an agreement with Ian Cassidy to have Disney's 2-D animated style movies to have music to be more Heart and Emotion with Absolutely Magical, Storytelling and Scope as well". "The Walt Disney Company celebrated Ian Cassidy's birthday party for being our Savior of bringing the old school Disney 2-D animated style movies." I'm thinking Disney stuff never meant always for kids, it's for everyone, mostly adults, back in the day, same with Looney Tunes and Tom and Jerry, unlike nowadays. Everything is for kids and family. Movies back then taught us about the importance of friendship, loyalty, kindness, compassion, determination, etc. A lot of movies do that, but there are still some good ones. The main ones that are awful to me are intentionally bad just for money, a cash grab. 😒 Cause The old Disney movies were so awesome. I had a little dark things that you don't see now those days in Disney movies. Movies still have an important message, though, but the movies are too sweet. There's a video Looney Tunes that they are soft and not that dangerous silliness we know. Because it's saver for the kids? I mean I can understand kids now those days are misunderstanding and would do anything for likes and views but making the cartoons soft won't change the fact that they grow up to be misunderstood, they become uncaring anyways because of the internet. People became too soft, with real snowflakes. Wow, I really missed the good old days when Cartoons were good. Today, it's a quick cash grab, with the use of effects and big names in the movies. I love the storytelling part, the sending a message to the audience, that's what should be, the soul and heart needs to come back in films and Hollywood became too powerful, meaning they can get away with making bad movies. Back then, movies had individualist them. Today, it's about ideas like social justice and feminism. Those ideas take away from the true hero's journey and make it difficult to identify with the characters. This is the reason so many people nowadays just stick with the older movies, and the ones grew up with them because that's precisely what those kinds of movies did for them. They were heartfelt, funny, for all the ages, full of value, and are consistently good every time you watch them. While one of the purposes was the company to make money, they still wanted to deliver a quality product to the viewers, and it feels like they've lost that. We took for granted 💔 how well animated movies in the 1990s and 2000s were, outside the animation being revolutionary for its time, the writing was also well written that even being 30. I can still watch movies like Ice Age (2002) and actually enjoy them. Yes, and a lot have avoided those powerful, morally complex stories in favor of something safer. Sure, the effects look amazing, but the heart isn't there anymore, The Toy Story series is an exception because all fours are capable of rivaling each other. Who says that Disney movies are just for kids? Adults can watch it as well, They have some life lessons which apply to both kids and adults. For example, what do we learn from The Little Mermaid, from my perspective, that movie learned us that never sell yourself to an evil person, also if the deal is bad, don't take it. What about Cinderella? It taught us that dreams can come true and that no matter with circumstances, they are always good and kind. What about Pocahontas? Love conquer all, and one must find their own way, other movies that have powerful messages, and excellent music. Nowadays, everything must be political ,which is sad and heartbreaking 💔. I definitely want to bring it back for my dream job in the future. Movies today are made to appeal to as wide an audience as possible and make as much money as possible. Back in the day, while profit and marketability were important, producers and directors had more freedom to be creative and make movies that were original, innovative, and memorable. People think it's all nostalgia goggles and being unfair to modern movies, but no. It's all the value and quality of the movies back then, the delivery, lessons, everything all that is gone nowadays. Technology creates the story these days, not the soul of the writer. Like how back in the old good days, we didn't over-analyze anything. We just sat back and enjoyed stuff. 😉 Animated movies are not like what they once were. The effort, the details, and the passion just aren't there anymore in modern animated movies, really sad. Movies nowadays are made by algorithms, not people. Today's cartoons don't have as many good, fun, and exciting masterpieces as the old cartoons. Too political... everything has to have "a message"... and the sense of pure fun is missing. I also find alot of movies nowadays try to be comedy's with over the top cringey dialogue and try way to hard to be funny, Not everybody wants to be laughing throughout the entirety of the movie (Or so they expect us to be laughing).It seriously is heartbreaking to see all that hard work and time people put into a film only for it to be completely thrown out near the end because studio executives lost faith in it. I can't imagine how frustrating that is. We don't want or need a joke every two seconds. Just give us a movie where the serious scenes don't get ruined by an out of place joke. That's not how movies should be made. Technology is supposed to simplify our lives and should not mean taking responsibilities away from us altogether. Box Office movies nowadays wouldn't even hold a candle even to a classic cartoon like This (The Land Before Time) in terms of depth and feel. Those big hits feel like they are just watched because of their name brand, not because of the quality itself at all. Once you watch them, they make you feel like you just wasted your time leading up to it and the huge money of it, too. That's why I feel like a winner when I don't watch the movies of this decade or even the past decade.
Darla and Max own this movie. They are easily the most entertaining and memorable characters in this flick. Almost make me even want to root for them xD
Tony: MAX!, >Max lumbers in< Max: Yes, Mr. Stark? >Tony points aggressively at Loki, Max lumbers over, picks up Loki< Max: How does the puny god go? Loki: *terrified squeak Max: Very Good
I discovered this movie as a kid because my mom used to go to a Block Buster and rent movies for me and this was one of them. And I am SO GLAD she did because if she hadn’t I never would’ve grown up with this masterpiece. It’s truly a hidden gem of my childhood.
Captain Doomsday MY AUNT SAID THE SAME THING!!! SHE WAS LIKE HE ISNT HUMAN...DONT NO MAN PULLS AN EXIT OFF LIKE THAT. THATS A DEMON OR DARK GENNI OR SOMETHING! Lol her exact words
Honestly, even though Darla is supposed to be the "villain", I feel like her anger in this instance was justified. Danny was simply an extra with ONE LINE: "meow". He was explained this before they even began, yet for some reason he took it upon himself to basically try to steal the spotlight and make the musical number ALL ABOUT HIM. He was stealing screen time from Darla, from the other animals, etc. That's not okay. He's lucky he only got off with a warning and wasn't fired at this time.
THANK YOU! I feel this gets glossed over a lot, but Danny is a bit of a selfish jerk, and it shines through brightest in this scene. He WAS stealing the spotlight, and ruined the take, which resulted in time lost from getting everyone and everything back into position. Shit like that doesn’t fly in movie-making. You’ve got a part, play it, don’t go rogue or try to make it all about you; a lot of these people just wanna make it through the day without hassle.
Woe to the mortal who cannot answer his infernal query: "how does this kitty cat go?" And woe to anyone who knows his true name, assuming someone does; if anyone ever did know it, they're certainly not around to share it.
@Dillon Sudduth Not racist but talks about racism (animals only getting poor animal parts instead of human parts too = black people in those times only getting boring,uninteresting roles in movies and tv)
@@klas-6 Huh makes sense, though I always thought of it being a depiction of classism; how the rich can do just about whatever they want because money talks, and the lower classes just have to put up with it on varying degrees of survival to maintain their stations.
Weird that when I was a kid I wanted to be exactly like him. Like I wanted to be a butler I would walk around like he did tried talking like him having his facial expression
I remember this movie from when I was young. Me and my sister would freak out when Max came in. But we would laugh at his mouth when he says "How does the kitty cat gooooooo?"
He emerged from the earth and disappeared into the aether. What the hell IS this creature Darla calls "Max," and would speaking his real name cause a mortal to go insane?
He comes from something beyond our mortal understanding. Beyond nothing and everything. His name does not exist in a language. His name is a concept that trascends horror itself.
He is one of the devils own and speaking his true nams will send one into madness with fear. He walks the earth as a nightmare and brings even the strongest man to tears. Beware this man for he is a demon in disguise. Run as fast as you can when you see THAT GUY!
This is absolutely hilarious, considering this movie was made by the same man who would eventually make Emperor’s New Groove. A Disney movie, of all things.
I showed this to my bf for the first time...we replayed his exit like 20 times laughing our asses off. We are fairly certain Darla summons him from an entirely different dimension.
Darla Dimple is one of my favorite villains. She's cute, but dangerous just like Cozy Glow and Baby Doll plus Big and Loud is now one of my favorite villain songs ever! Darla Dimple may be hated but she's got my respect.👍
This movie was just pure visual fun. Very expressive, very dynamic in its animation, memorable character designs, and a nice message about discrimination in Hollywood in the 1930s. A solid movie when I was a kid and still pretty great now Also MAX THE BUTLER was amazing
What is Max? He's as big as a mountain and yet his disappearing skills rivals that of Batman. He can break through walls without any effort and yet is gentle enough to fix Darla's halo without breaking it.
And probably her only equal. When she was swinging around he didn’t pick and stop her, he instead put his palm up and allowing her to smash onto his hand. Max is the only person she can be good to
Yeah, she's definitely a horrible brat and an obnoxious diva, but she had a point here even if she overreacted. In real life Danny would have gotten immediately chewed out or fired by the director for ruining what is clearly a long, complicated and expensive scene.
makes me laugh every time he says it since i was a little kid in the early 90s when this movie came out and i dont know why its just hilarious to me XD
Max has to be one of if not the most terrifying villain even seeing him now at 20 he still freaks me out.... just the build up and the execution a giant titan of a man his every moment is just terrifying XD
You know in the outside Darla looks "pretty sweet and adorable" but in the inside she's angry, she's evil, she's selfish, she's mean, she's bossy! She's a brat! A selfish freaking brat!
