Growing up is when you realize that Edgar would have been the defacto beneficiary. All he had to do was make sure the cats were well taken care of. Oh and did he seriously think that each cat would live 108 years?
If you listen to his calculations as well, he's multiplying their ages by 4, as if the kittens will be living in succession of each other rather than all dying around the same time. It's not the weirdest part, but it doesn't help. That's why learning maths is important, kids. You might just save yourself the trouble of a wacky, convoluted plan that will screw you out of an ageing opera singers fortune...that and it being a core skill for life, but the fortune thing too :P
I know. It's stupid. They made Edgar an idiot simply because the film needed a villain and the easiest way to make a villain is to make a careless idiot.
I find it perplexing that as I kid, I could understand every word that is said here (I'm a native Brit), yet watching it as an adult, it's like the first time I'm actually considering the implications of what is being said.
@GeraldTheBusDriver Which means he's looking at 108/432 years. 4 cats, each lives 12 years, 9 times... but of course all of us except him know the truth!!
Does Edgar really believe that the cats' lifespan will be multiplied by their 'nine lives'? XD In total, that's 432 years (including Edgar's multiplication by 4 cats)
He shouldn't multiply by each cat. That would imply that he'd take care of 1 at a time back to back. It's like if a father is counting down the years before he stops paying child support for twins, not 36, just 2 18s. In this case it wouldn't be 12*9*4, it'd just be 12 for all kittens simultaneously Wtf is wrong with me
While we all joke about Edgar's apparent lack of basic arithmetic, something to note is that he actually catches himself and says "No, it's less than that." He probably does know how math works but just wasn't thinking clearly due to being so upset at the fact that the cats were getting the inheritance before him. Though that still wouldn't excuse him believing that cats actually have nine lives.
cats have a 15 year life span on advarage but like you said due to him being crosses he wasn't think stright but he is rightt he cats would outlive him
It wouldn't even be hard for Edgar to do: >The cats already really liked him and regarded him as family >he was good at taking care of the cats, right down to making their favorite meal, taking them on rides around town, and grooming/cleaning up after them. aside from that simple, easy task, he'd effectively be handed over the entire estate, since the cats couldn't care less about money (or spend it for that matter.) He was basically going to be handed the keys to the kingdom; leaving the money "to the cats" was largely a symbolic gesture of how much Madame loved her pets. he did all of these shenanigans for nothing, and lost his job, his respect, and betrayed the people who thought most highly of him. sad. =(
Godzillaman One thing I like about Edgar is that he has more morals than most other Disney villains such as Cruella de Vil. He could have easily killed the cats but instead chose less cruel ways to get rid of the cats. Also at the climax, instead of killing Thomas O’Malley with the pitchfork, he restrained him with it instead.
The sad part is even though the cats are named as the beneficiaries of their owner's will, Edgar would be the one who has defacto control over the estate since cats can't use money. All he had to do was keep them well looked after and he would have been able to spend his employer's fortune anyway.
Edgar isn't even good at math. He just had to get the cats fixed and then outlive them after about 12-20 years. barbiquerea took the words right out of my mouth.
Not me. He makes me even more mad now that I'm an adult. This woman had no family and only her cats to keep her company; whom she loved very much. And Edgar tried to get rid of them just so that he could get her money!!!!!!! There are so many more important things in this world than money, and he deserved everything that he got!
Not to defend Edgar, but up until this point he was a faithful butler and maybe he thought he was family. Even though he still would've been in charge of the fortune it would still be rough to know animals come before you. Edgar is still one of the more sympathetic villains, he didn't let George fall down the stairs, and he didn't kill or separate the cats. Rather than evil, i'd just say Edgar was stupid and greedy. Or at least he didn't start out evil, anyway.
If Edgar hadn't heard about the will and overreacting over the cats outlive him before it's his turn to inherit his mistress's wealth, he could still have the chance someday while he looks after the cats even till madam's passing.
I’ve gotta admit Edgar has a point. The lady is kind of insane giving her fortune to her cats. I mean it’s not like cats want anything to do with money.
🤨 Right? She should've said that as long as her cats are well cared and looked after, Edgar would inherit all her fortune. I mean how the hell are cats going to use it? 🤔
Years ago this cartoon was shown on TV, and my mother walked into the room to ask what we were watching. When I told her the cartoon was about a butler plotting to kill his boss' cats because she planned to leave her entire fortune to them, my mother simply said "Good".
"Well as you know, I have no living relatives & naturally, I want my beloved cats to be always well cared for. And certainly no one can do this better than my faithful servant, Edgar" - Adelaide
"Edgar?! Adelaide, you mean to say you're leaving your vast fortune to EDGAR?! EVERYTHING you possess? Stocks and bonds, this...this mansion, your country chateau, art, treasure, jewels and..."
Funny the difference of watching this movie at first as a kid versus watching it now as an adult. I can't say I agree with Edgar wanting to destroy the cats, but it is pretty crazy to want your pets to inherit an entire fortune, estate, and all your other possessions rather than a human you consider close to you, even if that person would still get something eventually. When I was a kid, I thought Madame's request made sense, since we all knew the cats were smart and sentient like humans, and they're Disney cats, so that makes them really special, right? It was because of this, and her love for her cats, that made me wonder if she had some kind of special connection and insight into just how special her cats are, which made her request for her will make even more sense to me, and made me respect her more. As an adult looking back on that, um, it's not like Madame or anyone else knew that about the cats; to the humans, they were just pets. So yeah, all around, her request makes no sense. LOL I gotta say, though, I still love Madame Adelaide. She may be irrational in dealing with her pets, but she still has such a grace and gentleness to her, and a love for those around her that is simply contagious. I still love her. :)
Ultimately though he would be the one in charge of the money. Basically when you leave your money to your pets you're basically ensuring that they're taken care of until they pass. They aren't going to be making financial investments after you're dead.
@@Igarappappa yup. The cats would be dependent on Edgar after Madame's passing anyway, so there was no reason for Edgar to lose his cool and do what he did. He ruined himself in vain.
Madame Adelaide was a kind caring woman, but a little eccentric. She only wanted Duchess and her kittens to be well looked after as she called them the greatest treasure she could own. I'm sure she meant that the heritance would be owned by the cats but Edgar would be in charge of managing the fortune. Maybe Edgar was too thick to realize this or just wanted all the fortune for himself.
That's exactly what she meant; Edgar is basically inherenting it already under the guise her cats are well taken off. He just got greedy to even think it through
Edgar is so stupid even by Disney Villain standards. Not only did he take the "nine lives" concept so literally he thought they would outlive him, he actually thought they would take turns aging? Even if the cats had somehow outlived him, he still would've have control of the money, because it's not like they could've spent it.
"All of them dollars... millions" Well, Edgar... you're a French parisian guy in 1910. So you better should speak in Francs, and having some "F" in the eyes instead $. Just sayin'
I remember seeing speaking tubes like that in an old victorian mansion that's a museum in my home town, was so blown away by that as a kid remembering this movie. Was back there this week and had to look this up.
While it’s unrealistic I thought of another more realistic way Edgar would be angry What if the cats had kittens? Would Adelaide’s Will apply to them too? Edgar would maybe be forced to look after the next gen, and the next until their bloodline either dies out or he does. If that’s the case then it is indeed a more realistic reason for Edgar to mad here
When I was a kid I didn't get this part until I got older. Yes, Edgar did get screwed over after all he's done for Madam as her butler. I see why he did it. Still not right to kidnap her cats and take them away from her.
0:39 The awkward moment you realize that Hideaki Anno copied this Disney movie to create the famous depressed pose of Shinji Ikari for the Neon Genesis Evangelion series.
@GeraldTheBusDriver well,considering edgar seems to be in his 50s(maybe 40s),and that well treated indoor cats can live up to 20 years old,if the cats could very well outlive him,especially if the kittens had kittens of their own. Also,considering we don't know all of the conditions of the will,maybe edgar could only spend money for the cat's benifit,as long as they lived (though obviously allowing him to spend money on taking care of the house and his living costs),which is why he would want to get rid of them. You gotta feel bad for Edgar,devoting his time and life to take care of his mistress,(who doesn't seem to have any children to give inheritance money to) and appearing to be a perfectly decent guy/butler from what little we see of him before this scene,and then you find out her wealth is going to be given to her godamn cats,who have a good chance of outliving you.
@GeraldTheBusDriver as would I,i mean,i dont think Edgar would've minded taking care of the cats after the old woman's death,since thats pretty much what he did already,but having the fortune being left to them was just taking the piss. I quite like the aristocats,even if it isnt the best traditionally drawn film ever made by disney,i feel like a huge part of that comes from me watching the living crap out of it as a kid,to the point where when i was that age,i could practically act out huge chunks of scenes/lines in my head(i had a number of films,cartoon episodes that i pratically memorized as a kid)
How the heck did they not hear Edgar ranting on and plotting? Edgar could clearly hear them through the tube so how come they didn't hear him? Especially at 0:50 where he's right near the tube. Maybe if he closed the hatch on it i'd buy it but he doesn't. I just don't get it
I wouldn't say that, the will says that Edgar gets the fortune after all the cats kick the bucket. So if the police sees the will which can be used in the court of law and sees all the cats being alive, then Edgar could get arrested.
okay but as a kid I could never hate Edgar as the villain because I was so weirded out by how tiny his bedroom is compared to the rest of the huge mansion and even a 7 year old can understand that leaving ALL your money to your cats is kinda silly. And now as an adult the madame is definitely 100% the true villain here lmao like damn lady, maybe if you've paid him well enough he wouldn't have gone all rogue on your cats 😭.
Yeah but he would have been the one ultimately handling the money and all he would have done was just make sure that the cats were taken care of. Also they would not have lived as long as he thought they would and in the end all that money would have gone to him.
Pretty much everything in the plot could’ve been avoided if Edgar would’ve think things through further that even if the cats were given the fortune, Edgar would still be in charge as the cats can’t spend money and Edgar could still use the fortune for himself but would need to be responsible for the cats welfare and for his life in general.
He only started hating the cats when he thought 💭 he would not get the fortune and that the cats would get them instead. But he is not extremely cruel as he never tried to kill the cats although it would be the easy way. He is not every intelligent because he does not realize that even If the cats COULD outlive, he would still have control over the fortune as cats cannot possibly use money by themselves.
Imagine Edgar thinking about Gold Watchers from Dark Deception and found out how much they're worth. That could be TWICE as much like the mansion adding the plot to getting rid of the cats.
@@GabyGeorge1996 Nya, that trunk doesn't even have holes for air to enter. Edgar just wanted to get rid of the cats, not kill them, but it's possible that not thinking about that detail caused his own death.
Here’s another thing: according to a book based on this, by the time he got to Timbuktu after somehow getting out and surviving, he apparently got arrested for apparent illegal immigration.
And it’s all because Edgar believed some silly myth of cats having nine lives that he committed theft and now he’s right now in Timbuktu doing lord knows what…think about it for a moment people
She should've put in her will. "I hereby bequeath all of my properties and assets to my butler Edgar, provided he continues to care for my beloved cats for the remainder of their natural lives." That would've prevented so much trouble.
0:43 Edgar Balthazar: [wheezing] Cats inherit first? And I come after the cats. I, me, after... no, It's-- 0:50 [crossly] It's not fair! [hits his head on the voicepipe] Ooh! I mean, whew. Each cat will live about 12 years. I can't wait... And each cat has 9 lives. That's... 4 times 12, multiply by 9 times. No, it's less than that. Anyway, it's much longer than I'd ever live. I'll be gone. No. Ohh, no. They'll be gone. 1:14 [firmly] I'll think of the way. 1:16 [Chuckles] Ohh, why, there are a million reasons why I should-- 1:19 All of 'em dollars... Millions. Those cats have got to go. [ripped his jeans]
true edgar isn't the smartest disney villain. but he was the most humane. i mean he could have killed them but he decided to leave them in the countryside instead. and when that failed, he was gonna send them to timbuktu
0:00 Madame Adelaide Bonfamille: Well, as you know, my friend, I have no living relatives, and naturally, I want my beloved cats... to be always well whatever cared for. And certainly no one can do this better than my faithful servant, Edgar.
My honest opinion and comment about this scene of when Madame makes a will and Edgar becoming jealous of the cat being inherit first, I always doing this kind of act and possibly comedy sketch by myself just for fun. Even though Edgar is the villain, he is the most funniest character in this Disney classic movie. If I were making my own lines, I would think about how I react to everything Madame says about her will about inheritance. As Edgar listens to Madame's conversation about making her will, he was delighted, the way he dances at this part 0:27, when he thought that he was inherited to the mansion at first, but then when he heard that the cats are inherit first, he was so shocked, especially at this part 0:33 where he said 'Caaats!', 0:43 Disappointed about this, he plans to get rid of the cats in order to seize the fortune instead like he believes that the 4 cats have nine lives and he impatiently couldn't wait that long.
Honestly, Edgar is one of my favorite villains purely because I can actually respect him. He's literally one of the only people who NEVER tries to kill anyone else despite having several opportunities. He even went out of his way to spare Thomas O'Malley with the pitchfork and just trap him! He's clearly not a sinister man, just a misguided fool who doesn't understand how the inheritance would've worked. But he deserved the mansion and the fortune. Heck, he probably could've just found someone who wanted to adopt the cats!
That’s the joke here, but Edgar’s too stupid to realize that. Cats live shorter lives in their terms than we humans do in ours. he would get the money if he understood how inheritance actually works.
@@rstein926 That's why we have the social networks nowadays, to get those informations, I could understand this lack of information a few decades back, but I think that now there's no excuse, I mean is way easier now to find out something like that!
Madam: I have no living relatives and naturally, I want my beloved cats to be always well-cared for. Certainly, no one can do this better than my faithful servant, Edgar.

Growing up is when you realize that Edgar would have been the defacto beneficiary. All he had to do was make sure the cats were well taken care of. Oh and did he seriously think that each cat would live 108 years?
Exactly, Janelle. If he had been smarter, he would have realised that Madame Bonfamile was practically giving her inheritance to him
If you listen to his calculations as well, he's multiplying their ages by 4, as if the kittens will be living in succession of each other rather than all dying around the same time. It's not the weirdest part, but it doesn't help.
That's why learning maths is important, kids. You might just save yourself the trouble of a wacky, convoluted plan that will screw you out of an ageing opera singers fortune...that and it being a core skill for life, but the fortune thing too :P
I know. It's stupid. They made Edgar an idiot simply because the film needed a villain and the easiest way to make a villain is to make a careless idiot.
And what about any conditions on the will say how her entire inheritance was to be used
I find it perplexing that as I kid, I could understand every word that is said here (I'm a native Brit), yet watching it as an adult, it's like the first time I'm actually considering the implications of what is being said.
Poor stupid Edgar, didn't it occur to him that someone would need to take care of the pets once the old woman is dead?
Mirko Bozic That wouldn’t make for much a plot lol.
yep he would have been givin privliges to spend the money lol
What REALLY doesn't occur to Edgar is that Cats don't really have 9 lives
@GeraldTheBusDriver Which means he's looking at 108/432 years. 4 cats, each lives 12 years, 9 times... but of course all of us except him know the truth!!

Bumping into that pipe must of done something to his head.
To be fair cats can live up to 20 years so its very possible Dutchess and all her kittens would outlive Edgar.
Especially if they are well taken care of, my cat Socks lived for 17 years.
He shouldn't multiply by each cat. That would imply that he'd take care of 1 at a time back to back. It's like if a father is counting down the years before he stops paying child support for twins, not 36, just 2 18s. In this case it wouldn't be 12*9*4, it'd just be 12 for all kittens simultaneously
Wtf is wrong with me
Well not 432 all together, it would still all be 108 years per cat.... If that were true anyway (Dumb Edgar)

She inherited the cats 1st. Edgar wouldn’t get a dime
... but then there wouldn't be a *movie*.

You'd be cool if you lost a huge fortune to a bunch of animals after all the hard work you've been doing for years?
Fun Fact: Edgar was originally going to have a partner-in-crime who was a scheming maid named Elvira.
Why she got cut ?
@@nicholassims9837 Idk
@@nicholassims9837 Presumably because she got another job hosting horror television, then she heard about her own inheritance in Massachusetts.
0:33- CATS?!
"All of them dollas...👁️👁️💲💲millions..."
I don't care what anyone says, this guy MAKES this movie.
When I was a kid I didn't get this part until I got older. Yes, Edgar did get screwed over after all he's done for Madam as her butler. I see why he did it. Still not right to kidnap her cats and take them away from her.
Nah his actions were right.
Yeah but I mean it’s not the cats who are going to be spending the money. He’s technically the one in charge of the money

Roddy Maude Roxby is still alive to this day at 94 years of age. Ironically, he went the same path as George Hautecourt.
Happy Birthday to Roddy Maude-Roxby (the voice of Edgar). He's 94 today!

The awkward moment you realize that Hideaki Anno copied this Disney movie to create the famous depressed pose of Shinji Ikari for the Neon Genesis Evangelion series.
I love his room
"I'm sorry to tell you this, but the only movie we can afford watching right now is 'Cats'." 0:32
Note the goof that Edgar was wearing boxer but boxers weren’t invented until 1925 because the movie taken places in 1910.
This scene always boggles my mind. Million dollars going to cats? Doesn't make any sense.
Cats can't spend money
@GeraldTheBusDriver well,considering edgar seems to be in his 50s(maybe 40s),and that well treated indoor cats can live up to 20 years old,if the cats could very well outlive him,especially if the kittens had kittens of their own.
Also,considering we don't know all of the conditions of the will,maybe edgar could only spend money for the cat's benifit,as long as they lived (though obviously allowing him to spend money on taking care of the house and his living costs),which is why he would want to get rid of them.
You gotta feel bad for Edgar,devoting his time and life to take care of his mistress,(who doesn't seem to have any children to give inheritance money to) and appearing to be a perfectly decent guy/butler from what little we see of him before this scene,and then you find out her wealth is going to be given to her godamn cats,who have a good chance of outliving you.
@GeraldTheBusDriver as would I,i mean,i dont think Edgar would've minded taking care of the cats after the old woman's death,since thats pretty much what he did already,but having the fortune being left to them was just taking the piss.
I quite like the aristocats,even if it isnt the best traditionally drawn film ever made by disney,i feel like a huge part of that comes from me watching the living crap out of it as a kid,to the point where when i was that age,i could practically act out huge chunks of scenes/lines in my head(i had a number of films,cartoon episodes that i pratically memorized as a kid)
@@DanielAlves-xe4om Wow its been so long since the comments have been turned off on the video, I agree
It would have gone to him really
How the heck did they not hear Edgar ranting on and plotting? Edgar could clearly hear them through the tube so how come they didn't hear him? Especially at 0:50 where he's right near the tube. Maybe if he closed the hatch on it i'd buy it but he doesn't. I just don't get it
0:33 Sounds like F**king Edgar is saying "Bats."
🤣🤣🤣
Right. Thats gonna be relatable in 2020.
BATS??
As much as I don't like Edgar, this scene with him is pretty funny.
Edgar: "Those cats have got to go!"
(rips his pants)
Edgar’s voice sounds a bit like Daniel Craig
Who feels bad for Edgar?
I don't. He'd still have gotten the money. He'd just have to take care of the cats too since, you know, they can't spend money on their own.
@@jordanloux3883I don’t feel bad for him either cause I never really liked Edgar
The only Disney movie I remember where the butler is the villain. Yes, the butler did it!
how ironic, i guess, because actually there was another butler villain whch was eventually in the haunted mansion film adaptation
Edgar was unaware that he was going to be kept in charge of the fortune all along.
I wouldn't say that, the will says that Edgar gets the fortune after all the cats kick the bucket. So if the police sees the will which can be used in the court of law and sees all the cats being alive, then Edgar could get arrested.
okay but as a kid I could never hate Edgar as the villain because I was so weirded out by how tiny his bedroom is compared to the rest of the huge mansion and even a 7 year old can understand that leaving ALL your money to your cats is kinda silly. And now as an adult the madame is definitely 100% the true villain here lmao like damn lady, maybe if you've paid him well enough he wouldn't have gone all rogue on your cats 😭.
Yeah but he would have been the one ultimately handling the money and all he would have done was just make sure that the cats were taken care of. Also they would not have lived as long as he thought they would and in the end all that money would have gone to him.

He was blinded by them dollar signs 🤑🤑🤑
Pretty much everything in the plot could’ve been avoided if Edgar would’ve think things through further that even if the cats were given the fortune, Edgar would still be in charge as the cats can’t spend money and Edgar could still use the fortune for himself but would need to be responsible for the cats welfare and for his life in general.
While Cruella De Vil hates dogs, Edgar hates cats.😄
He only started hating the cats when he thought 💭 he would not get the fortune and that the cats would get them instead. But he is not extremely cruel as he never tried to kill the cats although it would be the easy way. He is not every intelligent because he does not realize that even If the cats COULD outlive, he would still have control over the fortune as cats cannot possibly use money by themselves.
Imagine Edgar thinking about Gold Watchers from Dark Deception and found out how much they're worth. That could be TWICE as much like the mansion adding the plot to getting rid of the cats.
0:33 when I found out we were gonna see Cats instead of Rise Of Skywalker as originally planned.
Everyone says Rise of Skywalker is terrible, but 2019's Cats is MUCH worse. (Even though I've never seen the latter)
Do you think that when Edgar got to Timbuktu he would try to find a way to get back to Paris?
You’re assuming that he didn’t die of dehydration after being locked in that trunk for god knows how long
@@GabyGeorge1996 it takes 6 days to get Timbuktu from Paris if you're driving and 37 hours if you're flying to Timbuktu from Paris.
@@GabyGeorge1996 Nya, that trunk doesn't even have holes for air to enter. Edgar just wanted to get rid of the cats, not kill them, but it's possible that not thinking about that detail caused his own death.
@@tomokokuroki8189 The lady was serious.
Here’s another thing: according to a book based on this, by the time he got to Timbuktu after somehow getting out and surviving, he apparently got arrested for apparent illegal immigration.

And it’s all because Edgar believed some silly myth of cats having nine lives that he committed theft and now he’s right now in Timbuktu doing lord knows what…think about it for a moment people

She should've put in her will. "I hereby bequeath all of my properties and assets to my butler Edgar, provided he continues to care for my beloved cats for the remainder of their natural lives." That would've prevented so much trouble.

Each cat will live about 12 years. I can't wait... And each cat has 9 lives. That's... 4 times 12, multiply by 9 times. No, it's less than that. Anyway, it's much longer than I'd ever live.

true edgar isn't the smartest disney villain. but he was the most humane. i mean he could have killed them but he decided to leave them in the countryside instead. and when that failed, he was gonna send them to timbuktu

1:20 What goes on in Bob Iger's head when he buys a(nother) major corporation.
My honest opinion and comment about this scene of when Madame makes a will and Edgar becoming jealous of the cat being inherit first, I always doing this kind of act and possibly comedy sketch by myself just for fun. Even though Edgar is the villain, he is the most funniest character in this Disney classic movie.
If I were making my own lines, I would think about how I react to everything Madame says about her will about inheritance.
As Edgar listens to Madame's conversation about making her will, he was delighted, the way he dances at this part 0:27, when he thought that he was inherited to the mansion at first, but then when he heard that the cats are inherit first, he was so shocked, especially at this part 0:33 where he said 'Caaats!', 0:43 Disappointed about this, he plans to get rid of the cats in order to seize the fortune instead like he believes that the 4 cats have nine lives and he impatiently couldn't wait that long.

Madame Adelaide Was Kind And Nice Caring Woman She Always Loves Her Pet Cat Dutchess And Her Kittens Is The Greatest Treasure She Could Own
Honestly, Edgar is one of my favorite villains purely because I can actually respect him. He's literally one of the only people who NEVER tries to kill anyone else despite having several opportunities. He even went out of his way to spare Thomas O'Malley with the pitchfork and just trap him!
He's clearly not a sinister man, just a misguided fool who doesn't understand how the inheritance would've worked. But he deserved the mansion and the fortune. Heck, he probably could've just found someone who wanted to adopt the cats!
Sounds like a big misunderstanding to me.
"Each cat has nine lives". That is only a saying! 🤭🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱
That’s the joke here, but Edgar’s too stupid to realize that. Cats live shorter lives in their terms than we humans do in ours. he would get the money if he understood how inheritance actually works.
Make sense that Edgar would have that thing in case the madam wants something

True but those in America especially kids may not know what European money stands for and dollar signs is easier to understand.
