Is the surprise movie "Hook"? :D (Doubt it, but I'm super excited for you to see it in any case!) That rat is a pretty patient villain! Disappears for almost the entire movie and comes back to attack a baby! At least Tramp was there to help. Might not notice, but the voice of Lady also voiced Merryweather("Make it blue!")from "Sleeping Beauty", while Aunt Sara was Flora("Make it pink!")and the Irish cop is the same actor who voiced King Hubert(Phillips Father). Some things that are easy to miss: The wild dogs that chase Lady before Tramp saves her are after her because she's in heat. Jock and Trusty offer to marry her after she ...er, stays out the night with Tramp. Great reaction, as ever!
Fun fact: The opening scene in this classic Disney movie is based on a real thing that Walt Disney did for his wife! Walt Disney bought his wife a chow puppy for Christmas and gave it to his wife for Christmas.
Another not-so-fun fact: In the original script for this movie, the people originally wanted Trusty, the bloodhound, to die, but when most of the actors and actresses, including actress/singer Peggy Lee broke down crying, and protested that the kids would be upset if they allowed it to happen, so they changed the ending to the happy Christmas ending ,with Trusty being alive, that we got today.
@@RLucas3000 No one it just made me sad lmao. Weird because I still watched kids movies with sad death scenes in them. I think it was just the vibe of the movie. I was a sensitive child lol.
Aaaah, that explains why it fades away from his apparently dead body only for him to be alive later. As a kid I always kinda wondered why they did it that way...
There are so many little details I love about this movie, but my absolute favorite is that Lady always calls her owners "Jim Dear" and "Darling" because that's what they call each other most of the time! Lady as a puppy is just so heart meltingly cute, like, I'm not even a dog person and I wanna snuggle with Lady!
@@a.g.demada5263 Where did you get "Dear" being their last name? In the original drafts, his name was Jim Brown, and Darling's name was Elizabeth. Olivia had it right. The character's names are only "Jim Dear" and "Darling" because the movie is from Lady's perspective, and that's what she hears them call each other. Those are terms of endearment.
The one scene that offended people the most was the scene involving the Siamese Cats, depicted having slanted eyes and buck teeth, and speaking in a mock Asian accent.
@@RedRoseSeptember22 Buck teeth and slanted eyes are racial cartilatures for Asian people. It's like when they used to draw black people with huge pink lips and pitch black skin. It's racist and it was always meant to be. This same racist Asian imagery is in Aristocats as well only it's more blatant because the cat speaks in broken English and plays with chop sticks.
@@softsounds8453 When I was little my first best friend was Asian and this was one of my favorite movies. All I knew was that the cats talked funny. They were twins which made them Siamese. And they were evil because they were cats. Never in a million years would I have taken away from it that it was something negative about a group of humans.
Wonderful romantic classic for the ages. Fun Fact: The film's opening sequence, in which Darling unwraps a hat box on Christmas morning and finds Lady inside, is reportedly based upon an actual incident in Walt Disney's life. After he'd forgotten a dinner date with his wife, he offered her the puppy-in-the-hat box surprise and was immediately forgiven.
And the rest of the story came from drawings Disney artist Joe Grant made of his dog Lady who was pushed to the side after he and his wife had their first child.
So some facts about Lady and the Tramp Walt Disney Productions story artist Joe Grant came up with an idea inspired by the antics of his English Springer Spaniel Lady, and how she got "shoved aside" by Joe's new baby. He approached Walt Disney with sketches of Lady. Disney enjoyed the sketches and commissioned Grant to start story development on a new animated feature titled Lady. Through the late 1930s and early 1940s, Joe Grant and other artists worked on the story, taking a variety of approaches, but Disney was not pleased with any of them, primarily because he thought Lady was too sweet, and there was not enough action. Walt Disney read the short story written by Ward Greene, titled "Happy Dan, the Cynical Dog", in the Cosmopolitan magazine, published in 1945. He thought that Grant's story would be improved if Lady fell in love with a cynical dog character like the one in Greene's story, and bought the rights to it. The cynical dog had various names during development, including Homer, Rags, and Bozo, before "Tramp" was chosen. The idea of giving a dog as a present is what Walt did for his wife and the look of the city in the film was inspired by Walt Disney’s boyhood town of Marceline, Missouri (which sidenote if you haven’t been there it is very cool as they have a whole museum there that used to be a train depot), Many of the songs were written by singer of the time Peggy Lee and she actually did the singing in the film as well for the mother, Si and Am, and Peg, The man who sings the song Peace on Earth in the film is Donald Novis who people will be more familiar with as singing “Love is a Song” from Bambi, During the middle of production of the film a new widescreen process was being done called Cinemascope so Walt basically had his artists make the film twice once in the regular aspect ratio of 1:33:1 (square shape) they were already doing and again in the new ratio which meant they had to change the layout of characters and look of the scenes, The beaver both design and voice would be the inspiration for the character of Gopher in the Winnie the Pooh featurettes, The voice of Lady is Barbara Luddy who was Merryweather in Sleeping Beauty, Once again some in house voices that appears in other Disney films find their way here as Verna Felton who was The Fairy Godmother in Cinderella, the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland and Flora in Sleeping Beauty is Aunt Sarah here, Bill Thompson who was The White Rabbit and others in Alice in Wonderland, King Hubert in Sleeping Beauty, and Uncle Waldo in Sleeping Beauty is Jock and several others here, They had planned to kill off Trusty, but because of the upset kids and parents over the death of Bambi’s mother they left it so he is alive and only has a hurt leg, The reason Jock and Trusty were proposing to Lady (that’s what they were trying to do after the pound scene before Tramp arrived), was because they discovered she was pregnant not that she was at the pound and it’s more the attitude of society at the time it was made. They were acting like dogs have the same morals as humans… Lady was out all night with an unchapereoned male, regardless of what she did or not do, her virtue is compromised. Offering to wed such a woman and “make an honest woman of her” would be seen as a pity case on the part of the men, because any babies within the first nine months (for humans) would be questionable if they were biologically his. In the extreme patriarchal society of the time, having such a question about your firstborn and heir is a huge stain on a man’s honor.
Oh my gosh, in all these years I never realized why Jock and Trusty were "proposing" to her! Other than that they felt sorry for her being brokenhearted and mistreated. I remember a friend of mine in high school once told me that "something happened after the spaghetti" in order for Lady to have her puppies at the time that she did, and it blew my mind. Goodness 😂
When I was a kid, my parents got a dog and we decided to name her Lilli because of this movie (in our country Lady was translated to Lilli). She died of old age few years ago. I miss her so much. Bless her. She was the best dog.
The dog pound scene is on the same level as the scene in the fox and the hound where she has to leave Todd in the forest. Just absolute emotion breakdown 😭
"She can't help it; she's so alone! She just needs to sleep with you!" You're an amazing person, Nick. Never change! I don't know how your heart fits in your chest, it's got room for so many people and animals! 😊
Gotta love how when the neighbor dogs call after Lady, they do so in ways that mimic the vocals of the breed they're based on. XD Yapping "Lassie" like a Scottish Terrier. Baying "Miss Lady, M'am" like a Hound. Always makes me giggle during re-watches.
Jacques and Trusty are probably the best bros any Disney protagonist can have. When they are willing to share their homes and likely non consenting owners with Lady, it always makes me misty eyed.
I love how Nick says “how could you say to that face? She’s so cute” ans then proceeds to aww and compliment Lady when she’s misbehaving 😂 Peggy Lee as Peg was amazing. I love the song “He’s a Tramp”. She’s the star of this film for me. All the Bueno Vistas films Disney did are so good- Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmatians, Fox and the Hound, all so good. I also know Nick likes hunting for Disney cameos like how he saw Mrs. Potts and Chip from Beauty and the Beast in Tarzan. Peg makes an appearance in 101 Dalmatians :)
It's funny because in France, Jock, Pongo and the woodpecker (in The Fox and the Hound) are voiced by the same guy, Roger Carel. By the way, Lady and Tramp appear too in The 101 dalmatians
@@AdamIshak01 and that's not all the characters he voiced. Roger Carel was considered like the boss of the french voice act for Disney and no-Disney characters. For Disney, he voiced Kaa, Sir Hiss, the Cheshire Cat, Roquefort and Lafayette, Bernard (from " The Rescuers "), King Hubert (in Sleeping Beauty), Basile the mouse detective, Timothée in " Dumbo ", Winnie the Pooh, Piglet and Coco Rabbit, Jiminy Cricket... and a lot of others (he even started with Mickey). Oh, and I forget Joe the cook and the guy in the park in " The Lady and the Tramp " Outside Disney, he's the french voice of Kermit, Alf, Astérix, the narrator and Anatole in " The Swan princess " and even Charlie Chaplin in " The Dictator ". He left us 2 years ago.
@@a.g.demada5263 oh my gosh Swan Princess 🥺🤍🦢 that’s one of my favorite movies! Wow he has a beautiful resume- I hope he had a beautiful life before he moved on.
@@AdamIshak01 and I didn't say all the characters he voiced just the most famous (Nick reacted at a lot of movies where he voiced characters). If you search his name on RUclips, there's vidéos with all his voices. Fun fact : I saw an interview of him and he says when he voiced Pongo, they asked him to use his real voice. Like I said, he was the boss of the french voice act. Sadly, I learnt he was behind a lot of characters of my childhood, only when I learnt his death. I thought of him when I saw the trailer of the live action of " Pinocchio " Oh, I forgot again another voice he did : the robot C-3PO in " Star Wars "
Fun Fact: The woman who voiced Lady in the sequel also voiced Ariel In The Little Mermaid and Barbie from The Toy Story Movies( I definitely recommend The First Toy Story movie)
Originally Walt thought the idea of dogs eating spaghetti dinner was silly and wouldn't work so he was thinking of cutting it out. Animator Frank Thomas didn't agree so he animated the whole scene himself without any lay-outs and presented it to Walt. Realising how Thomas made it look so romantic he changed his mind and the now iconic scene stayed in the final film.
I loved Lady and the Tramp growing up! i especially loved how the story kinda spun around the classic idea that Lady and Tramp are dogs from two different worlds, but they never let that get in the way of their romance!...also if you ever plan on watching Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventure in the future, then you best be careful cause a lot of people aren't very fond of it.
Yeah but I like it. Funny story, I never knew there was a sequel until 19 years after in 2020. YES IM SERIOUS. Anyway when I found out I loved it and wanted a third movie but it never happened until now... oh that’s right you don’t know. Hmmmmm...
This movie is such a classic, specially Bella Notte which is a memorable song. I do hope you react to Lady and the Tramp 2, it's a good disney sequel too, but mostly waiting for your reaction to 101 Dalmatians 2 Patch's London Adventure one day.
I condemn her actions throughout most of the film. However if I thought a dog knocked over a baby cradle with the baby inside, I’d probably do the same thing
I remember this movie by heart. It was one of the five different Disney movies mom bought for us on Christmas when I was really little. Making it third Disney movie I ever watched after Finding Nemo (The second) and Toy Story (The first). So it holds a place in my heart. And to top that, I’m a huge dog lover.
The town the movie is set in, is based on Walt Disney's childhood town of Marceline, which he had fond memories of despite only living there in five years before moving with his family to Kansas City. He also used Marceline as inspiration for Main Street at Disneyland, which have been used for all Disney parks around the world.
Lady and the Tramp is one of those Disney films that I can’t help but enjoy for its wonderful canine characters, especially the lead title characters. I like the animation, the story, and the music (most notably Bella Note). As always, thanks for the reaction, Nick!
@@SpacialRend7 Well if you're here, Then i wouldn't be surprised if Twist58 and Josh Blackwell are too because i sometimes run into them on non-mlp content as well. XD
13 minutes late but I’m here! Gosh that scene at the dog pound was so sad that it stuck with me for a long time because I could imagine about actual dogs in the pound or shelter 😢 but other than that this is an adorable movie, I love the characters the plot and the songs. Great video!
21:38 I’m pretty sure that the intense barking sound effects were reused in the live action classic Disney film “Old Yeller”. Specifically, spoiler alert, for the scene where Old Yeller fought the rabid wolf, Then again, I’m not entirely sure, I’m like 50% sure.
My favorite RUclips reactor watching my favorite Disney movie… I’m crying this is giving me so much joy ❤️🐶🐾 This movie for me was what Frozen is for kids today. I wanted to watch it multiple times a day that my dad called me “Pidge” for years because it was my favorite.
Peggy Lee wrote all the songs and performed the roles of Darling, Peg the Pekingese, and both Siamese cats. I remember watching, as a child, one of Disney's TV programs where they demonstrated how they record the Siamese cat song -- obviously not with today's technology, but they showed how Peggy Lee would record her performance as one cat, and then perform as the other while the first performance was being played back so that both performances could be recorded together. At that young age, I'd never seen anything like that done before, and I was fascinated.
The Siamese cat song has recently been called racially insensitive. I guess I can see where people are coming from, but I like the song, myself, and it’s a great cinematic moment to show off the cats as minor villains.
It also continues the theme of the animals having traits belonging to their breeds. The scottie is Scottish, the chihuahua is Mexican (funny nobody complains about that), the borzoi is Russian and the bulldog is English. The stereotyping is just rather indicative of the time when it comes to the cats unfortunately, but the film was made almost 70 years ago, and it's 2 minutes out of an hour and 16 minutes of movie. Getting mad about it now is kind of a waste of time, frankly. The bread's browned. Eat the toast or go make oatmeal.
Along with Peter Pan, Bill Thompson (best known voicing Droopy Dog and other MGM and Disney characters as The Ranger from the Humphery Bear cartoons and a couple of Donald Duck cartoons) have many voice roles, including: Jock, Joe the Chef, The Bulldog, Dachsie the dachshund, the Irish Policeman and one of Jim's friends. In Peter Pan he voiced Mr Smee and the majority of Hook's crew. His final voice role before his death was Uncle Waldo in The Aristocats.
Even if it's a racist implication, the Siamese cats' song is way too catchy! Also, this movie made me terrified of leaving my pets alone with a sitter that could potentially be mistreating them.
There’s a golden Lady And The Tramp statue at Magic Kingdom at Disney World. I know cause I was there during Christmas time in 2021, during the 50th celebration at Disney World, which is still going on right now.
Hello! Southeast Asian here with East Asian ancestry. And for the record, a lot of us aren't offended by the Siamese cats at all. To us, they're just singing cats. We're not insecure enough to think that slanted eyes and buck teeth are all we'll ever be to foreigners. If people are lazy enough to teach their children that not all Asians look/act like that, then it's not the movie's fault. It's plain bad parenting.
This movie was a real tearjerker as a kid and I found some of the scenes disturbing. I always remember the Siamese cats being evil and getting Lady into big trouble which was extremely frustrating. The dog pound scene was pretty dark and sad. The rat was also very creepy. But just the way Lady got treated by the Aunt bothered me so much as a kid. Funny I didn't even remember the part where they tried to stop the wagon and Trusty almost dying. Funny as a kid so many cartoons I just found disturbing or at least having disturbing scenes: A Troll in Central Park, We're Back, The Brave Little Toaster, The Secret of Nimh, Pinocchio, Dumbo, All Dogs Go to Heaven, Wind in the Willows, Little Nemo, Thumbelina, Halloween is Grinch Night. When you rewatch them when you're older I'm surprised to find generally they aren't so bad at all. But all but 2 of those I haven't seen since I was a kid and I really want to see them again to see them with adult eyes.
Just gotta say Nick, been watching your content for over a year now. Even though I am continuously shocked with the amount of movies you haven't seen, I love that I can watch you appreciate it all rather than watching my daughter and nieces and nephews be like... it's so old ehh.
It was really nice seeing you react to this movie, I'd love to see you react to the sequel Scamp's Adventure,it revolves around that puppy at the end that looks like Tramp.
Hi, Nick, I just want to let you know that there is a sequel to this film called: Lady & The Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventure. I don't know when you will be ready to watch the sequel.
I usually make fan characters to represent me for all the movies and TV shows I love. The character I created for this movie is this: Her name is Tsuke. She is a pet female Wolfdog. One of the dogs that neighbors Lady. Her name means "Moon" in Japanese. The area around the eyes and the lower half of the feet are dark brown, the rest of the body is dark gray. She usually hangs out with cats and squirrels. The most common joke about her is when other dogs argue whether she is a "Dog" or a "Wolf". But she describes herself as "a Wolf enjoying the benefits of modern human life". When Tramp and Lady are about to be caught in the final part, she attacks and wounds the human like a wild wolf, always proving that she is a Wolf.
a fun fact about the whole trusty and buster proposing to lady thing: I watched the making documentary of this film, and the reason they approach her like that is because the movie implies that lady and the tramp had sex during the Bella Notte. it's really subtle, since it was the 50's and they're dogs, but since they wake up close together the next morning, I bet some people in the audience probably picked up on it. so, trusty and buster approaching lady would be like two friends offering to "save a fallen woman" so to speak, since lady is technically damaged goods now. it's also more or less confirmed since she has puppies by the end
When I was little I had asked my mom why the rat was such a big deal. She said that in addition to carrying diseases, rats would eat the faces of newborn babies. ( o _ o )
As many mentioned, "Hook" would be awesome, also I cannot belive you still did not reacted to "Sing" (especially when Sing 2 is in the cinemas right now!)
Feel the same way about the sad faces of the dogs at the dog pound scene Nick i can't even go to the local humane society when they do free shots when i take my 1 year old Boxer Terrier. I'm constantly telling myself while getting sad saying don't be a dog hoarder don't be a dog hoarder. It's hard cause you instantly feel like you want to adopt them and just buy a big piece of land so they can be happy like a nice farmland
I know it's been a long time since you watched this movie, but i would like you to watch Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventures. It's a very good movie in my opinion, but it will never be better than the first one.
So Nick's reaction video to The Green Mile. I feel he needs to do more movies similar. Non-animated movies. 1. John Q 2. The Freedom Writers 3. A Time To Kill 4. American Hangman with Sutherland
also a similar (shorter non-disney) movie i loved as a kid is called Scruffy you should watch that too its LOOSELY based on a true story cause the story is based on the story of many dogs combined to be told as scruffy's story
One of my favourite details in this film is that they really wanted a girl and made all pink things, and even though they had a boy he was still wearing all the pink and had pink around his crib lol. They used all that stuff anyway
Great reaction! If you loved this one, you should check out the sequel Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp’s adventure. It follows their son Scamp who wants to live life off the leash! 🐾
if you’re going with reactions to old classic Disney films i suggest 1. The Sword And The Stone. 2. Pete’s Dragon 3. Robin Hood (animated) 4. The Rescuers (both films)
Lol as a kid this film gave me a really negative opinion of cat people 😂 😂 (don't worry I grew out of that lol) I had two dogs and as a kiddy the aunt made me so angry, I stomped into the kitchen to tell my mum "I do NOT like that lady mummy" 😂 😂 😂

Fun fact: The opening scene in this classic Disney movie is based on a real thing that Walt Disney did for his wife! Walt Disney bought his wife a chow puppy for Christmas and gave it to his wife for Christmas.

Many of the songs were written by singer of the time Peggy Lee and she actually did the singing in the film as well for the mother, Si and Am, and Peg,
The man who sings the song Peace on Earth in the film is Donald Novis who people will be more familiar with as singing “Love is a Song” from Bambi,
During the middle of production of the film a new widescreen process was being done called Cinemascope so Walt basically had his artists make the film twice once in the regular aspect ratio of 1:33:1 (square shape) they were already doing and again in the new ratio which meant they had to change the layout of characters and look of the scenes,
The beaver both design and voice would be the inspiration for the character of Gopher in the Winnie the Pooh featurettes,
The voice of Lady is Barbara Luddy who was Merryweather in Sleeping Beauty,
Once again some in house voices that appears in other Disney films find their way here as
Verna Felton who was The Fairy Godmother in Cinderella, the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland and Flora in Sleeping Beauty is Aunt Sarah here,
Bill Thompson who was The White Rabbit and others in Alice in Wonderland, King Hubert in Sleeping Beauty, and Uncle Waldo in Sleeping Beauty is Jock and several others here,
They had planned to kill off Trusty, but because of the upset kids and parents over the death of Bambi’s mother they left it so he is alive and only has a hurt leg,
The reason Jock and Trusty were proposing to Lady (that’s what they were trying to do after the pound scene before Tramp arrived), was because they discovered she was pregnant not that she was at the pound and it’s more the attitude of society at the time it was made.

I LOVE the animation in this movie! Lady's ears and her little tail, and the scruffy fur around Jaques and Tramp's face. So cute.
Jacques and Trusty are probably the best bros any Disney protagonist can have. When they are willing to share their homes and likely non consenting owners with Lady, it always makes me misty eyed.
I love how Nick says “how could you say to that face? She’s so cute” ans then proceeds to aww and compliment Lady when she’s misbehaving 😂
Peggy Lee as Peg was amazing. I love the song “He’s a Tramp”. She’s the star of this film for me. All the Bueno Vistas films Disney did are so good- Lady and the Tramp, 101 Dalmatians, Fox and the Hound, all so good.
I also know Nick likes hunting for Disney cameos like how he saw Mrs. Potts and Chip from Beauty and the Beast in Tarzan. Peg makes an appearance in 101 Dalmatians :)
It's funny because in France, Jock, Pongo and the woodpecker (in The Fox and the Hound) are voiced by the same guy, Roger Carel.
By the way, Lady and Tramp appear too in The 101 dalmatians
@@a.g.demada5263 really? That’s amazing! I always get excited when I noticed Disney “reusing” voice actors :)
@@AdamIshak01 and that's not all the characters he voiced. Roger Carel was considered like the boss of the french voice act for Disney and no-Disney characters.
For Disney, he voiced Kaa, Sir Hiss, the Cheshire Cat, Roquefort and Lafayette, Bernard (from " The Rescuers "), King Hubert (in Sleeping Beauty), Basile the mouse detective, Timothée in " Dumbo ", Winnie the Pooh, Piglet and Coco Rabbit, Jiminy Cricket... and a lot of others (he even started with Mickey).
Oh, and I forget Joe the cook and the guy in the park in " The Lady and the Tramp "
Outside Disney, he's the french voice of Kermit, Alf, Astérix, the narrator and Anatole in " The Swan princess " and even Charlie Chaplin in " The Dictator ".
He left us 2 years ago.
@@a.g.demada5263 oh my gosh Swan Princess 🥺🤍🦢 that’s one of my favorite movies! Wow he has a beautiful resume- I hope he had a beautiful life before he moved on.
@@AdamIshak01 and I didn't say all the characters he voiced just the most famous (Nick reacted at a lot of movies where he voiced characters). If you search his name on RUclips, there's vidéos with all his voices.
Fun fact : I saw an interview of him and he says when he voiced Pongo, they asked him to use his real voice.
Like I said, he was the boss of the french voice act.
Sadly, I learnt he was behind a lot of characters of my childhood, only when I learnt his death. I thought of him when I saw the trailer of the live action of " Pinocchio "
Oh, I forgot again another voice he did : the robot C-3PO in " Star Wars "
Fun Fact: The woman who voiced Lady in the sequel also voiced Ariel In The Little Mermaid and Barbie from The Toy Story Movies( I definitely recommend The First Toy Story movie)
That rat's the real villain in this movie as far as I'm concerned since he waited so patiently.
the pure joy on your face throughout this movie is so sweet.
Originally Walt thought the idea of dogs eating spaghetti dinner was silly and wouldn't work so he was thinking of cutting it out. Animator Frank Thomas didn't agree so he animated the whole scene himself without any lay-outs and presented it to Walt. Realising how Thomas made it look so romantic he changed his mind and the now iconic scene stayed in the final film.
I loved Lady and the Tramp growing up! i especially loved how the story kinda spun around the classic idea that Lady and Tramp are dogs from two different worlds, but they never let that get in the way of their romance!...also if you ever plan on watching Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventure in the future, then you best be careful cause a lot of people aren't very fond of it.
Me, I thought it wasn't as terrible even if it reminded me " The Little Mermaid II "
I like Ange in the sequel
Yeah but I like it. Funny story, I never knew there was a sequel until 19 years after in 2020. YES IM SERIOUS. Anyway when I found out I loved it and wanted a third movie but it never happened until now... oh that’s right you don’t know. Hmmmmm...
Lady's owners aren't terrible or even bad owners, tho they didn't make the best choices sometimes.
This movie is such a classic, specially Bella Notte which is a memorable song. I do hope you react to Lady and the Tramp 2, it's a good disney sequel too, but mostly waiting for your reaction to 101 Dalmatians 2 Patch's London Adventure one day.
I’m 25 and that song is still in my head. I hum it randomly lol
I love Scamp’s Adventure!
When I watched this as a kid I was just sad about the way the aunt treated her. Now? Now it makes me mad 😭
Yes, it's why I always hated her.
I condemn her actions throughout most of the film. However if I thought a dog knocked over a baby cradle with the baby inside, I’d probably do the same thing
I remember this movie by heart. It was one of the five different Disney movies mom bought for us on Christmas when I was really little. Making it third Disney movie I ever watched after Finding Nemo (The second) and Toy Story (The first). So it holds a place in my heart. And to top that, I’m a huge dog lover.
Fun fact: the actress who voiced Lady (Barbara Luddy) also did the voice of Merryweather in Sleeping Beauty
One of my favorite Disney classics😍
It’s one of my favorites, too.
The town the movie is set in, is based on Walt Disney's childhood town of Marceline, which he had fond memories of despite only living there in five years before moving with his family to Kansas City. He also used Marceline as inspiration for Main Street at Disneyland, which have been used for all Disney parks around the world.
Lady and the Tramp is one of those Disney films that I can’t help but enjoy for its wonderful canine characters, especially the lead title characters. I like the animation, the story, and the music (most notably Bella Note). As always, thanks for the reaction, Nick!
Well well, look who it is...looks like we meet again SpacialRend! lol
Seems so. 😉
@@SpacialRend7 Well if you're here, Then i wouldn't be surprised if Twist58 and Josh Blackwell are too because i sometimes run into them on non-mlp content as well. XD
13 minutes late but I’m here! Gosh that scene at the dog pound was so sad that it stuck with me for a long time because I could imagine about actual dogs in the pound or shelter 😢 but other than that this is an adorable movie, I love the characters the plot and the songs.
Great video!
21:38 I’m pretty sure that the intense barking sound effects were reused in the live action classic Disney film “Old Yeller”. Specifically, spoiler alert, for the scene where Old Yeller fought the rabid wolf, Then again, I’m not entirely sure, I’m like 50% sure.
This is a cute movie! My sister likes it as well, and this was the second Disney movie to be made in 2:35:1 widescreen format.
My favorite RUclips reactor watching my favorite Disney movie… I’m crying this is giving me so much joy ❤️🐶🐾
This movie for me was what Frozen is for kids today. I wanted to watch it multiple times a day that my dad called me “Pidge” for years because it was my favorite.
Oooo 😍😍😍 I watched this last month for the first time as well and I loved it but it made me cry a little bit 😭😭😭😭
How have never seen this I just assumed every human every had seen this lol
Peggy Lee wrote all the songs and performed the roles of Darling, Peg the Pekingese, and both Siamese cats. I remember watching, as a child, one of Disney's TV programs where they demonstrated how they record the Siamese cat song -- obviously not with today's technology, but they showed how Peggy Lee would record her performance as one cat, and then perform as the other while the first performance was being played back so that both performances could be recorded together. At that young age, I'd never seen anything like that done before, and I was fascinated.
I watched this movie so much as a kid. Definitely a classic
Why did the dog pound scene have to go for the jugular like that. 😭 #adoptdontshop amirite??
I didn't remember the dog pound scene being so heartbreaking.. That dog at 30:53 is something I can't handle looking at.
The Siamese cat song has recently been called racially insensitive. I guess I can see where people are coming from, but I like the song, myself, and it’s a great cinematic moment to show off the cats as minor villains.
It also continues the theme of the animals having traits belonging to their breeds. The scottie is Scottish, the chihuahua is Mexican (funny nobody complains about that), the borzoi is Russian and the bulldog is English. The stereotyping is just rather indicative of the time when it comes to the cats unfortunately, but the film was made almost 70 years ago, and it's 2 minutes out of an hour and 16 minutes of movie. Getting mad about it now is kind of a waste of time, frankly. The bread's browned. Eat the toast or go make oatmeal.
there are SO MANY lines in this movie as a kid i thought they said something else & the closed-captions were SUPER helpful
Along with Peter Pan, Bill Thompson (best known voicing Droopy Dog and other MGM and Disney characters as The Ranger from the Humphery Bear cartoons and a couple of Donald Duck cartoons) have many voice roles, including: Jock, Joe the Chef, The Bulldog, Dachsie the dachshund, the Irish Policeman and one of Jim's friends. In Peter Pan he voiced Mr Smee and the majority of Hook's crew. His final voice role before his death was Uncle Waldo in The Aristocats.
At the end of the film the puppy that looks like Tramp is called scamp and he has his own movie
Even if it's a racist implication, the Siamese cats' song is way too catchy! Also, this movie made me terrified of leaving my pets alone with a sitter that could potentially be mistreating them.
There’s a golden Lady And The Tramp statue at Magic Kingdom at Disney World. I know cause I was there during Christmas time in 2021, during the 50th celebration at Disney World, which is still going on right now.
One of my favorite childhood Disney movies. remember being six seven and bursting into tears when i thought Trusty had died.
Good thing Disney changed that ending
Hello! Southeast Asian here with East Asian ancestry. And for the record, a lot of us aren't offended by the Siamese cats at all. To us, they're just singing cats. We're not insecure enough to think that slanted eyes and buck teeth are all we'll ever be to foreigners. If people are lazy enough to teach their children that not all Asians look/act like that, then it's not the movie's fault. It's plain bad parenting.
The Siamese cats, Darling and Peg were all voiced by the same person.
Trusty never lost his sense of smell. That was just what the other dogs believed.
This movie was a real tearjerker as a kid and I found some of the scenes disturbing. I always remember the Siamese cats being evil and getting Lady into big trouble which was extremely frustrating. The dog pound scene was pretty dark and sad. The rat was also very creepy. But just the way Lady got treated by the Aunt bothered me so much as a kid. Funny I didn't even remember the part where they tried to stop the wagon and Trusty almost dying. Funny as a kid so many cartoons I just found disturbing or at least having disturbing scenes: A Troll in Central Park, We're Back, The Brave Little Toaster, The Secret of Nimh, Pinocchio, Dumbo, All Dogs Go to Heaven, Wind in the Willows, Little Nemo, Thumbelina, Halloween is Grinch Night. When you rewatch them when you're older I'm surprised to find generally they aren't so bad at all. But all but 2 of those I haven't seen since I was a kid and I really want to see them again to see them with adult eyes.
Just gotta say Nick, been watching your content for over a year now. Even though I am continuously shocked with the amount of movies you haven't seen, I love that I can watch you appreciate it all rather than watching my daughter and nieces and nephews be like... it's so old ehh.
It was really nice seeing you react to this movie, I'd love to see you react to the sequel Scamp's Adventure,it revolves around that puppy at the end that looks like Tramp.
Hi, Nick, I just want to let you know that there is a sequel to this film called: Lady & The Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventure. I don't know when you will be ready to watch the sequel.
I feel the absence in modern animation of magical, dreamlike scenes like the Bella Notte choir in the park
I named my dog Lady after this film, one of my all time favourites. Hope you're having a blessed day my bruva, manners and respect from England.
You should also watch the sequel! I think it’s amazing !!
I usually make fan characters to represent me for all the movies and TV shows I love. The character I created for this movie is this: Her name is Tsuke. She is a pet female Wolfdog. One of the dogs that neighbors Lady. Her name means "Moon" in Japanese. The area around the eyes and the lower half of the feet are dark brown, the rest of the body is dark gray. She usually hangs out with cats and squirrels. The most common joke about her is when other dogs argue whether she is a "Dog" or a "Wolf". But she describes herself as "a Wolf enjoying the benefits of modern human life". When Tramp and Lady are about to be caught in the final part, she attacks and wounds the human like a wild wolf, always proving that she is a Wolf.
a fun fact about the whole trusty and buster proposing to lady thing: I watched the making documentary of this film, and the reason they approach her like that is because the movie implies that lady and the tramp had sex during the Bella Notte. it's really subtle, since it was the 50's and they're dogs, but since they wake up close together the next morning, I bet some people in the audience probably picked up on it. so, trusty and buster approaching lady would be like two friends offering to "save a fallen woman" so to speak, since lady is technically damaged goods now. it's also more or less confirmed since she has puppies by the end
It's been YEARS since the last time I've watched this movie,I still own the VHS...now I just wanna rewatch it!!😍😍
I just caught that I believe Aunt Sarah is the same voice as the good fairy in Sleeping Beauty!
When I was little I had asked my mom why the rat was such a big deal. She said that in addition to carrying diseases, rats would eat the faces of newborn babies. ( o _ o )
Here’s some movies for you to watch; Remo Williams: the adventure begins, and the adventures of buckaroo banzai: across the 8th dimension.
I think your lighting looks fine
🐕 Thanks Nick!!! 😊
My favorite Disney Classic of all time
Lala lu was my Lullaby as a kid. Only my mom sung the dutch version
Even at 35 this movie make me cry. I hope it's true at 75
You need to watch the sequel, it mainly focus on Scamp (which is the lil pup that looks like Tramp)
Lady and The Tramp is one of my favorite movies, watched it a lot growing up! Please tell me you'll eventually doo a reaction video to the sequel!!!
As many mentioned, "Hook" would be awesome, also I cannot belive you still did not reacted to "Sing" (especially when Sing 2 is in the cinemas right now!)
You should watch the sequel to this - Scamp’s Adventure.
Ah yes, the good old memories. The intro song is so damn nostalgic
You definitely have to see the sequel! X3
Yesss!
Feel the same way about the sad faces of the dogs at the dog pound scene Nick i can't even go to the local humane society when they do free shots when i take my 1 year old Boxer Terrier. I'm constantly telling myself while getting sad saying don't be a dog hoarder don't be a dog hoarder. It's hard cause you instantly feel like you want to adopt them and just buy a big piece of land so they can be happy like a nice farmland
I know it's been a long time since you watched this movie, but i would like you to watch Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp's Adventures.
It's a very good movie in my opinion, but it will never be better than the first one.
I love this movie. Still love the Lady and Tramp spaghetti kiss scene. A family friend had a dog named Lady. She was so sweet.
The second movie is also good! Not as classic ofc but I love it!
Might I also suggest Lady and the Tramp 2. It’s not as good as the original but it’s still a fun watch.
This is on my top favorite disney movies, i hope you watch the sequel soon!!!
So Nick's reaction video to The Green Mile. I feel he needs to do more movies similar. Non-animated movies.
1. John Q
2. The Freedom Writers
3. A Time To Kill
4. American Hangman with Sutherland
also a similar (shorter non-disney) movie i loved as a kid is called Scruffy you should watch that too its LOOSELY based on a true story cause the story is based on the story of many dogs combined to be told as scruffy's story
I think I remember that one. Is it the one where a collie thinks a slipper is her passed on puppy?
I grew up with cats but I like all animals
Thank you so much for the reaction, one of my favorites. Please react to the second one Scamps Adventure!
It's one of my favorites its been awhile
Oh, geez, I forgot how creepy the Siamese cats are in this movie...
One of my favourite details in this film is that they really wanted a girl and made all pink things, and even though they had a boy he was still wearing all the pink and had pink around his crib lol. They used all that stuff anyway
Great reaction! If you loved this one, you should check out the sequel Lady and the Tramp 2: Scamp’s adventure. It follows their son Scamp who wants to live life off the leash! 🐾
if you enjoyed this you should watch the sequel, it’s pretty good for a disney sequel with BANGERS of songs, was my favourite as a kid
Now you need to watch the second one 😄 I think you will like it too
if you’re going with reactions to old classic Disney films i suggest
1. The Sword And The Stone.
2. Pete’s Dragon
3. Robin Hood (animated)
4. The Rescuers (both films)
Please !!!REACT " Lady and the Tramp 2 " 🥺👏🏻
this is such a cute movie love youre reaction :) im a new subscriber
I have a good one for you. Disney's "The three Lives of Thomasina" It is a live action film.
I only like this movie because of my cocker spaniel :D ... who definitely was there first... lol
love ittttt ❤ This is so nostalgic~
Watch the 2nd one it’s cute loving and that pup is adventurous
Lol as a kid this film gave me a really negative opinion of cat people 😂 😂 (don't worry I grew out of that lol) I had two dogs and as a kiddy the aunt made me so angry, I stomped into the kitchen to tell my mum "I do NOT like that lady mummy" 😂 😂 😂

As a kid I don't think I appreciated the adult tone of some parts of this film. Think I like it more now than as a kid. Meanwhile when I was little I adored the sequel more,
"Scamps Adventure" hope you watch the sequel soon! ❤️
Yup! I love the sequel so much, it also has a happier tone over all, and a nice message, I hope Nick reacts to it as well!
